🐾 Badge Make-Along - Pack Badge pt 1
🕑 Added 2021-02-23 17:11:26 +0000 UTCHello Patron Peepz! Welcome to the first badge make-along/tutorial! I'm putting together a new type of badge today, I expect to hit many-a roadblock. I'll be sharing a new step each day till it's done.
Starting off I have a prototype made of some ranfom scrap paper, my specific badge requires being a certain size (a lot bigger than I thought) to hold up the little dolly backpacks I got. When I got the shape right I traced my prototype onto my final paper and sketched out my character (my victim is Cookie!!)
Figuring out what medium to use for traditional work can be hard, especially for two-sided badges like this.
I think I'm going to go for watercolors and crayola markers since they don't bleed through the paper. On regular traditional badges with colorful backing, such as my bite badge, I tend to go with any pens I like, bleed or not. MAKE SURE TO TEST YOUR MATERIALS BEFORE STARTING! you don't wanna start all over, that'd be rough!
For two-sided traditional badges, most papers can handle tombow calligraphy pens, ballpoint pens, crayola markers, crayon pencils, colored pencils, and SOMETIMES watercolor (thick mixed media paper does best, bristol is another great paper for badges, but it's extremely smooth and watercolor doesnt quite "stick" to it.)
Avoid sharpies/similar permanent line pens, felt-tip pens (on bristol is fine), and alcahol markers like copics. These boyz bleed like nobody's business!
Tomorrow I'll share the magic of my coloring process wooo! See you then!
