Trying POSCA PENS and COPIC MARKERS on the Same Drawing

[@LethalChris1]

Hi everyone! I recently tried out Posca Pens for the first time and thought it would be exciting to see how they look alongside Copic Markers on the same drawing! This was such a fun sketchbook project and I really hope you enjoy watching the video. Be sure to let me know what you think of the drawing! And also, please let me know if you have any art video suggestions that I could work on. I wanted to also say a big thank you for all of the amazing support! It truly does mean a lot to me. I hope you're all doing well and I hope you're having a great day. :) -Chris

I would LOVE to see you drawing a mythological creature ! :D

[@drawingwithyusuf]

Thank you so much, stay connected 💯 💝

[@CookieeeKiddo]

Really amazing and also thought why not make a monochromatic dragon. With a colourwheel from which the colour will be chosen and then it will be a challenge... Please consider suggestion.

[@megandoyle5387]

Can you draw thunder dragon or wind dragon or sunflowers 🌻 dragon???????????

I think the art came out great. Nice mixture of colors too.

[@TorresArtistDraws]

that looks like a wonderful combination! both brands offer a different range of colors so it must’ve been fun!

[@LethalChris1]

Thank you!! It was a really fun project. Working in this sketchbook and trying out these pens has helped a lot recently. Can't wait to try more ideas!

@@LethalChris1 I always loved realistic x cartoon. That's a perfect while beautifully weird composition!

[@bagasaqsa2268]

@@LethalChris1 Hii Chris, im from Bali. i hope my ask get some respon, i wanna made custom phone skin from vinyl, thats means plastic surface. The durability of alcohol based like copic on plastic its good enough? and it will spray a matt clear as varnish make better durability?

[@josiahthenerd3072]

That was and is really cool man, just a thought however. I Think I would be interesting to use the copics for the natural pieces of the environment. The skull, the butterfly, the leaves, etc. and use the Posca for the more unnatural cybernetics. Before the background was added I thought the contrast was rather striking. Not that the picture isn't striking mind you, I'm fumbling a bit here but I'm hoping this is somehow helpful criticism and not the ravings of a mad man. :)

[@suhailmohamed3013]

I agree with you

[@galacticat7144]

Yeah, I thought the background was taking away from it a little too much as well.

[@sethravat1740]

Really cool

[@LethalChris1]

Thanks so much!

[@varflock9777]

So many kinds of contrast one one picture: • Skull (organic but lifeless) / robotic parts (non-organic and lifeless) / leaves and butterfly (organic and alive) • Smooth gradients of copic markers / blocks of color made with Posca • Gray-ish foreground with heavy yellow parts / bright, colorful background • Different amount of details And somehow it all fits together without looking especially chaotic.

I was looking at Posca pens so this video got recommended to me and I am absolutely blown away at how gorgeous your art is. I went to see if you had an online store within the first 2 minutes of the video. You blow me away and inspire me, thank you so much for creating such gorgeous art and sharing it with the world. This came out so wonderfully!

[@deafblood]

The contrast between the organic parts having shading and the robotic areas having flat colour is really stunning to look at.

[@PumpkinPails]

I'm really enjoying this series of Posca and Copic pieces you've been posting, especially this one. The effect is like an 80s cartoon meets a minimal Art Noveau and it's absolutely gorgeous.

[@deandreconners4415]

Your welcome chris

[@realquirky]

Bae, you could try using copics with watercolors or Poscas on canvas or woodboards. Also, poscas look quite nice when combined with gouache or acrylic gouache, for that matter...

[@LethalChris1]

Amazing suggestions! Thank you so much. :)

This is such a creative way to use these materials! I love how you push yourself out of your comfort zone with new supplies! The character looks amazing, really enjoyed the video!

[@soon_to_emerge]

Cyberpunk and nature is one of the most striking combinations for me. Your drawing and music choice actually made me tear up a bit, and rn I'm going for my sketchbook.

[@LizardBeaming]

Your final drawing was super cool but I was so impressed by the little copic + posca pen practice at the beginning of the video. You have such a steady hand! All those soft zigzags looked identical and the posca lines next to them seemed effortless.

[@Mechanoid]

I'd appreciate if there was a tutorial on your skull drawing, looks so good.

[@LethalChris1]

Thank you!! I'd love to work on more tutorials soon. I'll keep this in mind.

[@itchypepehole300]

[@InkAndPoet]

Your timelapses are utterly mesmerizing!

[@LethalChris1]

Wow, thank you so much!!! :)

[@Dimolicious]

I love the fact that you used Copic for the organic parts of the drawing since they blend very well and used the Posca pens for the metal/non-organic parts as it's very hard/opaque colors. It's all just so natural, it's just right :) Awesome drawing!

[@lage3127]

I get some kind of Anime/Cartoon vibe from this. Espacially from to POSCA's for the hard shadows and lines. All in All it seems like you took a realistic drawing and montaged it with cartoony additions. PRETTY pretty nice! Surreal and Real mixes so well in this piece.

[@kale4550]

This work is absolutely, positively, PHENOMENAL! This is an insanely detailed and yet clean piece!

[@EvertPieterseArt]

Cool drawing! The combination of opaque and translucent mediums creates an interesting contrast. I've been interested in trying out Posca pens for a while; I think I need to get a set.

[@leneecasteel2005]

Hi Chris!! 👋😎👋 First off, you are such an amazing artist! I love watching you create. Second, I am so, so sorry your cat passed, my lab of 14 yrs also died not so long ago. It's hard, I don't thing we ever completely get over it, thinking of her can bring a lump up. But Chris, thinking of her can bring smiles also, what we shared lasted so long and there are so many memories of the good times. The pain of missing her can always be there, but it becomes more distant and it is much easier to switch to a good memory when I start feeling sad. I hope this happens for you as well. I definitely think those two pens/markers go well together, especially with the way you put them to use. Looking at this drawing at the end, I had this flash of switching it around totally. What I mean by that is to have the butterfly sitting in front, maybe sitting on a branch. In the wing area is a skull with similar mechanized attachments. Behind the butterfly is a very busy, intricate cityscape, in and around your circle background. It's not something I would draw myself, but I can see you doing it to perfection! Love your artwork and glad you have a channel for sharing with us!! Thanks!!

[@theconqueror4334]

Watching you draw all these wonderful drawings motivates me to improve my own skills.

[@jubileecopperwood3822]

Thank you! I have recently tried copic pens and was disappointed that they did not cover. So I was thinking of investing and the posca pens. Now I think I'll have to have a few of each 😁!

It's so weird how they just contrast so much, yet still seem to work together so well. Completely unexpected results.

Wow, thank you!! :)

[@Ponpom.crafts]

I have recently aquired posca pens also, and used them to add accents of color and light on a drawing where i used copic and watercolors. I am quite happy with the result, and i like that you can blend the posca pen with a brush. :P

Man this turned out amazing. The only thing I didnt really like was the legs and body of the butterfly using that white marker. It just looks like it doesnt belong. I really do love it as a whole and that was such a cool piece!

[@victorcassel8521]

Congrats on this absolute awesome artwork!! It looks amazing, and I really like the kind of separating effect the contrast between the copic's and the posca's give as you used only the copics on the non-machine parts of the scull, and only poscas on the machine parts. It really looks amazing and you are a great artist!
