I will end up adding all these how-to videos into a playlist so they are easy to find! I already have many planned 💕 Also, I recommend Copic Markers because they are refillable, but a budget friendly option are Ohuhu Markers ❤ I am pretty sure Ohuhu finally has refills too!
Colorless blenders are really only for blending a light color into the white of the paper. You can kinda also use them if you put down a color and decide it is too dark. Just know, if you use it for that purpose, it might end up a bit patchy.
What I have been doing for a year or two is putting down the colorless blender FIRST and then putting down your colors. It prevents the ink from being taken away. I love using this hack. Highly recommend
Colorless blenders get a bad rap but they are actually really cool. If you lay down a layer of it before your colors then the colors come out more blended and less streaky. It's like using a layer of clean water before adding watercolors only not as intense. Chisel tips are the best for this because they get out a lot and the paper stays wetter longer. If I have completely colored something like skin and it looks a bit dark or unblended I go over the whole thing with the CB and it makes everything a but lighter and more evenly blended. Also, and I recommend using one with a fine tip for this, if you get a bit outside of the line then the CB can be used to either push the color back (with finesse you can make it so the harsh lines line up with your lineart) or it can lighten a darker color to the point that its easy to hid with another color.
I recently bought alcohol markers and this is a really great advice and great tutorial! ❤ The colorless blender would be a great tool for blending the colors ^^. Lovely!
Nice tutorial.. but somehow im not able to get this effect.. one thing is that the colours we get here are quite different, with hardly any lighter shades and most of them leaving behind heavy streaking.. also i was wondering, what kinda paper have you used here ? Is it cotton blend, or just paper with high gsm? And is it cold pressed or warm? Maybe that might help
I use this same technique when blending my yellows together. Dark color first, then blend with a lighter color and leave a space in between both blended sides where the white highlight should be. I hope this makes sense, and to Chell with the colorless blender!! 🤣
Actually for the colorless blender you’re suppose to put it first before putting the colors so then it doesn’t have a line in the middle I have seen a lot of people make this mistake so I just wanted to tell you! (This is just what I think since I watched another video about the colorless blender and it says that so yeah but I might be wrong!)
It's very hit or miss if that technique works since alcohol ink dries FAST! Only useable in smaller sections imo ❤ but i do have a vid about colorless blenders being posted soon
From personal experience: I actually lay the dark tone in first, but then "Wait, How Do I Blend It With The Lighter Tone??" I then use the blender all around the circle, lighting up the dark shade before coloring all over the circle again, this time with the lighter shade. "But That'll Cover Up The Darker Shade More, Thus Not Blending The 2 And Just Hiding The Dark Under The Lighter Tone!" That's why after spreading the lighter tone around, I go back to the darker shade and blend it with the lighter shade again.
wouldnt the light pink marker have gotten some dark pink leftover the tip? u cant use it anymore bc the color is ruined- idk if this correct im not a incredibly skilled artist so i wouldnt know-
@@moonshiro prime the area you wish to blend on before applying the color, this extends the wet time allowing you to blend much easier and without the hard lines being so prevalent as well. You can also use them to “push” ink back into the lines of a sketch or to push ink entirely out of an area into a blotter behind the page. They are extremely useful infused correctly

I am gonna make a video about things you can do with the colorless blender! You can do more than that ❤
@@CreativeCarrah fun! I’ll be looking forward to that!
U cn apply the blender all over and do a layer of the lightest shade(maybe more)
Thank you for that tip❤

Kk!!!
Yeah u are 👍
That's how your supposed to use them, it's not a hack. It's called "pre-priming"
That's how I use my colorless blender. The colorless blender works great if you use it to prime the paper first💯

Wow i cant wait till my alcohol markers arrive!(the mailmans a bit late but thats fine!)
Wow cool marker ❤
This literally helped me
What kind of paper works best? I have watercolor paper but I will go get whatever you suggest
From personal experience: I actually lay the dark tone in first, but then "Wait, How Do I Blend It With The Lighter Tone??" I then use the blender all around the circle, lighting up the dark shade before coloring all over the circle again, this time with the lighter shade. "But That'll Cover Up The Darker Shade More, Thus Not Blending The 2 And Just Hiding The Dark Under The Lighter Tone!" That's why after spreading the lighter tone around, I go back to the darker shade and blend it with the lighter shade again.
But that does make me wonder, what could you use a colorless blender for if all it does is lift off the pigment? Has my life just been a lie?
I have a video coming about what you CAN do with them hehe
@@CreativeCarrah looking forward to it!
I saw somewhere that you're supposed to put the colorless blender on the paper before you add the colors, but idk how true that is.
Does the darker ink end up transferring to the lighter marker tip?
Really nice thank you for sharing 😊
Same i do the right thing❤
What is the tip of the marker called??
omg I have alcohol markers too!!!!!!
I’m getting some tomorrow eeeeekkkkk
Can u help me please? Where did u buy these markers? Please tell me

Good thing I don’t need the blending tool, my marker pack didn’t come with one lol

Colorless blenders are always used wrong. . . Doesn’t anyone know the right way? They really are extremely useful for blending AND corrections
So how do you use them?
