anteup seriously? just go experiment and stop asking about fading just go try and see wut happends u will learn little tricks along the way
I use Sakuras there really nice for bbooks and stickers I think. Plus there super easy to steal at Michaels
Yeah there definately some of the best. Verrrrryyy expencive though.. not worth the money... rack... i have acumulated a few draws of a mixture of prisma's charpacks, copics, letraset, magic markers (avalable in the uk only i think) deco's unipaints sharipies ect... paint markers go best on thick hardback sketchbook paper (with the slight grain) and design markers on marker paper.. i seem to get oil bleeding with paint markers on sketch paper.. unipaints only.. why only them?
nice there like 50-70 cents less a marker than then the prismacolors.....but i still prefer the prismacolors.http://www.misterart.com/store/view/001/group_id/1626/Prismacolor-Marker-Sets.htm

Don't EVER use the clear colorblender... Worst waste of racking I've ever done. It usually doesnt mix the colors unless its on an expensive type of paper (made for bleedy markers), and if you try it on regular BB shit it might/will leave an ugly oil-like mark on your paper, looking nothing like either of the colors. Using another lighter color will DEFINITELY blend better, speaking from experience. Hoped this helped a little.
prismas are fine you just gotta know how to use them really. what i do is a get the fat side, and do stripes so you have spots of blank paper, and just fill that in with the fine end. idk the actual way how to make things look really clean, but that works for me,
