Drawing BB8 From Star Wars With COPIC and Colored Pencils

Drawing BB8 From Star Wars With COPIC and Colored Pencils

Harry

For this drawing I used COPIC markers along with Faber Castell Polychromos Colored Pencils and the surface I used was the Strathmore 500 Series Bristol Plate 100% Cotton paper. I find the 500 Series from Strathmore, especially the Bristol Plate, to be the perfect surface for Colored Pencil and Markers. The paper allows the marker to layer without bleeding and feathering all over the place, but then when it comes to applying the colored pencil for detail, the 100% cotton content allows for plenty of layers and seamless blending.

The artwork in this post was created using the Posca Colored Pencils that were kindly sent to me by Posca, or Uni Mitsubishi if you prefer. As you can see I have added my sketch in the list of images, I have gone over the initial sketch quite heavily in order for you to see it properly, however, ordinarily you would draw your sketch as light as possible.

I wanted to make sure that this was just a colored pencil piece and nothing else added such as Marker which would be my usual goto medium with colored pencils. I used Prismacolor Premier and Caran d’Ache Luminance. In theory, it doesn’t really make much sense to use both these pencils along side one an other and that is because one is highly lightfast and the other not so much so financially speaking it doesn’t make sense

This is my drawing of R2-D2, that loveable droid from Star Wars. I was sent Spectrum Noir's new Graphic Markers and with them I drew this bit of art. Along with the new Graphic Markers, I have also used Spectrum Noir's ColourBlend pencils.
