Copic Skin Tone with The Stamping Chef

Good Morning, hope your all well :) 

I'm here with you today with another tutorial for The Stamping Chef

Im here to share with you another colour combination I use when colouring my skin tones - I do hope you saw my last skin tone I did - If not you can find it further below! 

For this tone I have used Copics;

E000, E00, E02

And the gorgeous 'I'm a Raver' from The Stamping Chef - Now as I wanted to concentrate on skin I have once again masked the image on my computer to just give me her head - It also meant I could make the images slightly bigger to show you :) 

So lets begin….. 

I start by laying down E000 over the entire area of the skin

Taking E00 I then come in from the outside ages - being sure not to cover the complete face, just leaving enough for a highlight…. 

You can see that I have taken the E00 over the eyelids and over most of one side of her face - this is where I think the shadow would be. 

*TIP* remember you can always add more colour later but you can't take it away so start by covering a smaller area than you want the shadow in the first place*

Taking E02 I then draw this in from the outside edge too - but once again no quite as much

You can see I have also drawn a 'flick' up to look like her nose - I know this looks very drastic on the colour side of things… it all blends :)

Taking back your E00 go back over the area as before making sure you cover all the area where you put E02

Its at this point you will see if you want the shadow to be more, remember don't add too much at once and these pens can deceive you - if your worried allow the ink a bit of time to dry - it helps! 

Going back to your E000 colorer the entire skin area as before, 

You may want to cover it with E000 and leave it a few moments to see what it looks like - you can add more in but be sure not to over saturate the paper :) And hey presto - there she is!! All coloured up! Well I hope you have enjoyed my tutorial today and I hope to be back soon with more :)

Copic Hair Tone

Good Morning, hope your all well :) 

A while ago I did a few tutorials on how I colour skin and hair, now due to other commitments I had to step back from the DT that I did it for, these posts have been sat on my blog for ages and so I have decided to share them with you :) 

For this tone I have used Copics;

E33, E35 and E37

And the gorgeous 'I'm a Raver' from The Stamping Chef - Now as I wanted to share a hair tone with you I am using the image I coloured the skin of last time.

I have masked the image on my computer to just give me her head - It also meant I could make the images slightly bigger to show you :) 

So lets begin….. 

I start by laying down E33 over most of the hair area

I leave the white areas where I think there may be some shine - these will get coloured in time.

Taking E35 I then come in over most of the E33

I do make sure to leave some of the areas showing of E33 as you can see.

*TIP* remember you can always add more colour later but you can't take it away so start by covering a smaller area than you want the darker area in the first place*

Taking E37 I then once again go over some of the area where I put the E35 - mainly where I think the shadow will be 

Taking back your E35 go back over the area as before making sure you cover all the area where you put E37 to blend it

Its at this point you will see if you want the shadow to be more, remember don't add too much at once and these pens can deceive you - if your worried allow the ink a bit of time to dry - it helps! 

Going back to your E33 colour the entire area to finish blending 

You may want to cover it with E33 and leave it a few moments to see what it looks like - you can add more in but be sure not to over saturate the paper :) And hey presto - there she is!! 

I finished her up using 

YG03, YG17 for her eyes

RV25, RV29 for her hair tie and top

If you have any questions just comment below and I will do my best to answer them - Well I hope you have enjoyed my tutorial today and I hope to be back soon with more :)

Copic Skin Tutorial for The Stamping Chef

Good Morning, hope your all well :) 

Im here today with my first tutorial for The Stamping Chef - I wanted to do something but was a bit unsure as to what to do and so I'm going to share with you two things today - 

Firstly how I colour skin tones (I have done a few online lessons but nothing serious!) and Secondly a colour tone for skin that has to be one of my favourite :) 

For this tone I have used Copics;

E50, E51, E53 and E93

And the gorgeous 'I'm a Raver' from The Stamping Chef - Now as I wanted to concentrate on skin I have masked the image on my computer to just give me her head - It also meant I could make the images slightly bigger to show you :) 

So lets begin….. 

I start by laying down E50 over the entire area of the skin

Taking E51 I then come in from the outside ages - being sure not to cover the complete face, just leaving enough for a highlight…. 

You can see that I have taken the E51 over the eyelids and over most of one side of her face - this is where I think the shadow would be. 

*TIP* remember you can always add more colour later but you can't take it away so start by covering a smaller area than you want the shadow in the first place*

Taking E53 I then draw this in from the outside edge too - but once again no quite as much

You can see I have also drawn a 'flick' up to look like her nose - at this point I'm sure your thinking…. Oh no that will never blend!! Well….

Taking back your E51 go back over the area as before making sure you cover all the area where you put E53

Its at this point you will see if you want the shadow to be more, remember don't add too much at once and these pens can deceive you - if your worried allow the ink a bit of time to dry - it helps! 

Going back to your E50 colorer the entire skin area as before, 

You may want to cover it with E50 and leave it a few moments to see what it looks like - you can add more in but be sure not to over saturate the paper :) 

Taking E93 I colour her lips

Any hey presto - there she is!! All coloured up! Well I hope you have enjoyed my tutorial today and I hope to be back soon with more :)
