It is also possible to make more grey layers for the transitions and cover it all in the end with a colour. Then you can make different tones of a colour with only one colour marker.

Incidence of light

Think about light and shadow and not about coloured surfaces.

When beginners first use markers, they usually colour their whole drawing consistently between the lines. Then they ask how to continue. I usually say: “Try it again!” But this time, think first about what you want to see in the end. You have to decide which parts of the object will be light and keep those white. Then you decide which surfaces will be somewhere between light and dark, and which sides will be dark.

It is not about colouring between the lines, but about creating contrasts in brightness between different surfaces. It simply means that if, for example, you have one surface perpendicular to another, you will make a significant difference in brightness between these surfaces. The contrast will highlight the form differences in brightness and the sketch will come ‘alive’. It will look much more three-dimensional.
