Copic Day!
Jan. 12th, 2005 02:26 pmDid I say $60 in copic merch? After looking at my certificates, I realized my husband's family has given me $70! woo! I had to call the company to be able to use both certificates for one order, but I'm all jazzed at how helpful they were and they manually put my order in and I gave them permission to charge for the $3.85 I went over. I got some nice colors I can't wait to try, a blender marker,a couple sepia microliner pens, and some of their official marker paper. heh.
Wow !!
My aunt sent us some amazon certificates for Christmas too, so I ordered a book called Marker Magic: Which looks very interesting. It has several chapters on simulating/rendering textures and metals, sounds just like the kind of reference book I need. (I'd love to hear what your absolute favorite/most used copic colors are. It's hard to decide sometimes.)
I promise to give a mini review when I get it. (I am also very open to other marker tech. books if you have any to refer, there are slim pickings. I do have the How to Draw Manga Special already.)
So, sometime next week, I'm going to get lots of marker love!

I have been so tired this week, and have no clue why. I'm getting about 6.5 hours of sleep, which is usually fine. I am feeling utterly, painfully, exhausted. At least today the feeling didn't start until about 1:30, whereas on Monday I felt that way about when I got to work.
But, I did go grocery shopping on Monday, have been trying to drink more water (especially today), and plan on getting my crock pot stuff all ready tonight for bbq ribs for tomorrow. Progress, yo.
