Having looked at your extremely t...Hi there Jacqui<br /><br />Having looked at your extremely talented colouring here, I appreciate both images for different reasons - but my personal preference leans towards the copics for choice of colour - in the clothes only, they don't seem to be as dark - but thats probably what you were trying to achieve - and the paler colours are just personal preference. I love the colour choice of the trousers on the second image. However - the skin tones are much better blended by the SN's. The copics don't look as seemless as the SN's particularly on the face.<br /><br />I own a lot of promarkers - I shaln't be buying anymore after seeing the results of the SN's - and do have the skin tones already on order... I think I will add to my pen collection gradually an affordability point of view - I'll buy a pack at a time (just cos I've spent far too much recently)!! <br /><br />Keep up the good work - a few more comparisons would be extremely helpful but appreciate this does take time from crafting!<br /><br />Thank you so much.<br /><br />Paula.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03294286444278595836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2758271659036860428.post-74189807670948726812011-08-03T10:54:12.439+01:002011-08-03T10:54:12.439+01:00Love your cards Jacqui, might have to invest in th...Love your cards Jacqui, might have to invest in the pens to along with my copic<br />Hugs LindaLinda .

I, on the other hand, have struggled with promarkers for ages and never had much success but I am absolutely thrilled with the results I've had with SNs.
