New pens arrived (picked them up in-store) and I’m very excited
I grabbed two new brands to play with: Carioca acrylic pens with more colour options , and Mont Marte fluorescent pens for a little extra pop.
……I also picked up some brush pens and the Chamomile Rowood kit, which Im excited to add to my collection.
Funny moment though I was so confused trying to colour-match the orchid until I realized it’s actually two different colours
I tried a few different markers and ended up going back to my trusty King Art pink for now. Sometimes the old favourites still win
Planning to paint them tonight and assemble everything tomorrow… hoping I get more time over the weekend to really enjoy the process🥹
Have you ever had a colour totally fool you once you really looked at it?

So nice. I’m also looking for colored pens to color the models I’ll be building soon.

Hahaha 100% it really depends if I’m building during the day with natural light or at night with an artificial light.
I’m keen to see what the fluorescence markers look like.
I LOVE YOUR NAILS I gotta say it again!

Ahahaha yes i was so confused but i’m glad one side matches the colour at least!
The fluorescent ones im so excited to try on the Tonecheer one with Coco, the one @Jerry_Boswijk ‘s wife built. I’m just waiting for it to arrive!

The King Art ones are my favorite as well. Even though I rarely use markers, they are my “go-to”.

That’s indeed tricky when a piece has a dark and a light side. I’m curious about the final result.

Love those coloured pens. I recently got my metallic pens and I’m loving it.

One side leans pink and the other is more purple. No wonder nothing felt quite right.
