Yesterday i told you guys i bought my prismacolor markers in the US, right? well, i thought the markers are okay (well, they are, except for one thing.) I tested my markers yesterday afternoon and goddamn it i don't have one for skin tones! All i had was Peach, and that damn color makes the characters look like they've been burned. O.O I was damn worried about what would i do, so i scoured the internet on tutorials and whatever things needed to adjust.
UNFORTUNATELY, there was no information on how to color someone's skin with just PEACH. they had all other colors -- the people who wrote those tutorials -- like Eggshell and Salmon Pink and Sand...all colors that i DON'T have, dammit. so i was worried sick -- what the hell can i color if i can't color someone's skin, eh?! aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarggggggh...
So what i did was i went to the Prismacolor site, got that color chart there, and scoured it for the colors that would be perfect for skin tones. And earlier today i asked my mom if i can order the markers i needed. (wanted)
And she agreed. I paid her 4/5 of the money needed (it's for a good cause anyway :D). But this probably means that i won't be able to buy Ribon for May (nooo...that has SDC as a cover! T.T) and the rest of Hana-Kimi...and God Child. T.T i'll probably have to ask for it one the next six months has passed. or something. or if i become an outstanding student the first quarter.
Yeah, I'll do that.
I also got my new TABLET! *love love* It's a pain to use, though. But i'll get used to it....someday. And the Corel Painter 8 is so cool too...(yeah, i know I'm ranting about art materials here...^^') although i'm still trying to learn how to use it (Photoshop was damn too hard for me), it's still cool. ^^; i'm going to color Kazu and Ta-ko once i've learned how to use it!!!!!
I'll post later...probably.
