Steam's having a sale so I bought This War is Mine and Deadlight. Let's see how that goes, lmao. I'm now avoiding all sales as best I can because I've spent too much money (....not on those games hahaha) and I need to stop. ;3;

I bought about six copic markers and have been informed that this is the end for me. I have a boatload of prismacolor markers but I can already tell the copics are superior. Thankfully, they can be used together so that's good (at least that's what I've been told, I haven't had time to test it out)! I look forward to drawing a lot of certain Jedis, hahaha I am obsessed. ;3;

SPEAKING OF WHICH, there's a five part miniseries comic called Obi-wan & Anakin and of course, I have the first two parts. The art is fantastic and it's a nice snippet of life for Obi-wan and Anakin. I personally would have preferred it being based more on their day to day lives as Master and Padawan but instead it's some kind of mission going on. Still, it provides some really great characterization for both men. And did I mention the art is fantastic? The artists really love Obi-wan. He constantly looks so damn majestic and almost leonine. Just wonderful.

I bought paid time for dreamwidth! Woo! Time to get some new icons.

oooo I love those markers! I may have to go check those comics out... I do love comics.

They're pretty great. I'm practicing with some original pieces to get back in the swing of using markers and then I'm probably going to be doing more fanart stuff with them. |D

The comics are pretty great! I love seeing how Obi-wan and Anakin work together. That was something that tbh I wanted to see more of in the movies.

copics are the BESSSST. I love using them so much. I don't personally like using the prisma w the copics, just because prisma usually dries too fast to really do any heavy blending that doesn't involve just layering it on top. I like using watercolour pencils with copics tho, esp with a colorless blender, because then it looks just like watercolour straight up.

& yea, you're absolutely screwed now, because once you start collecting copics you just... can't.... stop.....
