Figure Drawing -warm-ups-



My new weapon of choice;

Copic WIDE -extra broad- markers

They look like sharp chisels.  The large tip allows for the broadest range of line width which I have ever achieved with a marker.  I really enjoy throwing down huge shadow areas then, without switching tools, delicately adding wispy lines.

*These drawings were done from models found on 
It is a great site filled with video tutorials 
in all areas of drawing and painting.  
I highly recommend checking it out.  
It has useful information for all skill levels.


One last note: the middle value would dry up quickly while I was drawing.  I found that misting the tip and inside the cap between uses helped refresh the ink flow.
