I got copic markers and an airbrush recently.

  That is amazing! The soft airbrush texture is perfect for her hair and the colours are so vibrant (one of the reasons I love Copics / markers in general so much!). Congrats on your new 'toys'!

Woah...I ll echo Griffins jaw drop...she is stunning! Her mane and tail are just amazing.

thank you very much! I've recently discovered I'm way better at traditional than digital.... paints and markers are just so expensive!

[Saja]

wow so cool!

How fun!!!  New toys are the best lol.  I love the effect of the airbrush on the tail and background.  The anatomy of that front leg is throwing me off a little, but as a whole I just love this picture.  Lots of textures and colors to look at.

Is that the Copic airbrush system? I'm not a Copic person but I do like the airbrushed look. Too bad "real" airbrushes are rather technical and make a mess...

nope, that's my normal, gravity feed airbrush. the Copics I have don't work with the copic airbrush system (they were less expensive). However, I saw the Airbrush system when I was buying my markers, it's awesome! and actually uses less ink, since you're getting a nice even coat without layering it. I'll probably invest in the line of markers that work with the airbrush system and the airbrush at a later date.

^ That's really cool. I'm kind of interested in airbrushing but it seems like such a fuss. I'm glad to see a "normal" hobbyist using one.
