Hey my colourful friends
I've finished my first set of Alcohol Based Markers Tutorials and they are available on YouTube.
I've put these video tutorials together using the top asked questions from classes I have taught. They are suitable for complete beginners and those who want to improve their colouring. Have a look and tell me what you think.

Includes correct set up, what paper to use, amount of ink to use and what a blender pen is used for.
Alcohol Based Markers and The Three Way Blend
Includes how the three way blend creates a transition between shades of the same colour family and smooth blend/flick blend methods.
Alcohol Based Markers - Four ways to shade
Includes different ways of shading using the same colour family and by using greyscale.
Alcohol Based Markers - Two easy ways to improve your colouring
Includes getting over your fear of the dark and creating texture.

I hope these are helpful. As always I would love to read your comments, take your suggestions and see your colouring.

If you are into educational content, then I can advise you to record educational videos. For your video tutorials, you probably often put music on top. But could not use this audio because it was attached to another video. I am using an audio extractor. Which allows you to extract music from videos.
