You’ll even learn how to color hair and clothing with realistic texture and dimension. While you practice, you’ll end up creating five exclusive card designs, whose patterns can be found on the included CD-ROM. Anyone who knows the basics of using alcohol ink markers—including but not limited to Copics—will be able to successfully complete this class.
