Watercolor play time



I think that a lot of comic artists like to dabble with watercolors because they are a quick way to bring a line drawing to life and they don't have the steep learning curve that a lot of other painting media have.
I drew this quick sketch with a red Colerase pencil and colored it using a small Sakura Koi watercolor set and water brush I have. The pigments in this set are surprisingly vibrant for a pan watercolor set so you can get nice rich colors or thin pale washes depending on how you layer the color and how much water you add. This small compact travel set up is really made for painting outside I guess, but in my case it is super handy for taking to coffee shops and comic cons ;)
