Playing around with colour markers

[elusivek]

There's a new dollar store kind of shop opened in town called Miniso. Everything looks very Japanese-y but I'm convinced it's all Chinese stuff.

They sold some pretty cheap markers.




So I've been mucking around in my sketchbook these few days and ended up with that above and this below...




I saw I didn't get enough colours at first, so two weeks later I went to get all the colours they had.




Yeah, 9 colours don't get you too far. I bought the whole palette they had (something like $2 usd for 3 pens). Sadly there are specific colours they haven't got on their palette, but I improvised.

Behold!




Pig Girl Burin. Don't ask me why I drew this one. I thought I'd draw something Slayers but... Burin came out.

Don't know how long this drawing bug will last, but we'll see if I get to feel artsy again in the near future again.

Cute! :-)  Most times the dollar store markers are all dried out.

Wow these are really cute!! You handle the markers really well--I've always thought they were one of the hardest things to color with. They also look really good, for being so cheap C:
