Orc of the Scorpion Legion - Promarkers

Description

An armoured Orc from the Scorpion Legion.
Okay, the idea was to draw one of my earlier orc pictures with Promarkers. So I 'lightboxed' my Armoured Orc pic and started using the markers...
You can see i started with the fine nibs for the face and right-side but then got into the thicker nibs and started to use them more freely (the chin, helmet & background.)  The problem was the set i had was a bit limited for colours, not for the Orcs skin but for the helmet greys and blues.

I wanted the scorpion tail to be pale browns like the most venomous ones but that, in truth probably destroys the colour balance of the picture :(
Promarkers on A4 bleedproof paper and a bit of white ink for highlights.

This came out wonderful, and I think you successfully worked around your color balance issues.

I don't really have any advice for more successful coloring. The only thing I can recommend is I've never drawn on bleedproof paper per se, but paper designed specifically for marker usage gives you more blend time with the markers.
