Copic Black?

[cdnscrapper]

What color black would I use to color Santa's boots or a Penguin?

Thank You for any and all help.

i use greys so i can get some high's and low's... W3, W5, W7, then W9.

I do the same thing, only I use C5, C7, C9.

yes, layer the grays. Start with the lowest value and then work your way up to a 7 or 9 layering as you go. :-)

I always teach that black isn't just black...

I've got an example of that when coloring Santa's boots in this card...

Santa's Lap

I used C01/C03/C05 a touch of C07 and E53/E55 to warm it up...(yes, I like to mix my warm and cool colors) LOL

I would think with a Penguin that you could do grays and maybe a lavender or a light blue as the highlighting???

Beautiful cards ladies. Thanks for helping me out.

If you look for Suzanne Dean on youtube, you'll find video tutorials on coloring black with the gray Copics to maximize shading.
