A while back my grandmother gave me some money for Christmas, and I blew all of it on some Japanese copic markers. While yes, they are amazing, I thought in the interest of focusing on the actual flow of the hair, and the movement of the cloth, I would use my pencils to color todays project. I've very satisfied with the hair, though the shirt I think could have used a bit more work, or maybe just more practice. Or maybe a pencil that didn't break every 2 minutes... :P I killed my poor "Sky Blue." it will never be the same again.

I think with the breaking problem, you probably have rather nice, soft colored pencils and you're pushing a bit too hard. Or they were dropped a lot. :P

They've been in storage for a while, that and my daughter likes to play with them when she thinks I'm not looking.
