there are a lot of ways to color... but my favourite media has to be water
colour, cause' you can use a variety of techniques. sometimes i used color
pencils, just to make a quick artwork.
what do you people use to color your artwork with?
eerm...i only use pencil...or mechanical pencil....>.< 4 sketches
erm poster colour o water colour when attending art class in school....(two
years back)
crayon?
Photoshop is my most favored medium...I don't have any watercolors or
markers,but I do have some Prismacolor pencils,which I don't use very much.I
love digital coloring;it provides a range of options and smooth coloring.And
there are programs like Corel that imitate actual painting...I also find some
non-digital coloring mediums to be somewhat expensive so...
Quick sketching I use H thru 6h leads in a mechanical drafting pencil.
For color work, I prefer colored pencils. For serious drawings, I will use
Derwent studio pencils. The leads in Derwent pencils seem a little harder and a
little less waxy.
I'm a big fan of the mechanical pencil, so much that I use it whenever possible
for all my writing rather than using ink. I've tried paints of various kinds but
I'm not good with it and find it a bit messy so I stick with the good old pencil sketch + photoshop.
Being stuck at work all day, I used office supplies--sharpies, pens, pencils,
whiteout, etc. Then when I get home I finish it with watercolor and sometimes a
touch of photoshop!

pencils are the best, they're easy to use comparing to photoshop or any other
computer software. But the coloring part is hard sometimes... computer is better
for coloring i guess.
what don't I use? :/ I like to experiment with everything, but markers and
watercolors are my primary media. I'm strictly a Photoshop digital painter,
though, but I want to get better at Open Canvas and Painter, they're so
difficult to get a feel for. For drawing I use col-erase pencils, #2 yellow
pencils for black lines, and for inks, I use either Koh-i-Noor tech pens or
regular nib and quill... though I favor nib and quill ^^;
Pencil and watercolor is my favorite natural media but I use Photoshop and
Illustrator mainly these days coz like Plainwhitepaper said the "undo"
feature is a real timesaver.
Alot. I use markers, watercolor, colored penciles, digital medium or just plain
inking and shading. I love mixing and matching media! My usual combos though are
watercolor/pastel and watercolor/pastel/markers
hmm, depends what I'm doing I guess. I like digital colouring 'cause of the undo
and layer options. magic wand also makes life easier. and mixing colours is much
easier: you get the exact colour you want.
but since I don't have a tablet, I like traditional mediums too because I have
more control. (and they're fun and messy to use). Letsee, graphite (I sketch
with H or F, sometimes B or HB, and shade with 2B - 4b) and charcoal are good
for b/w sketches or shading. but I LOVE conte, because of the beautiful
sepia-ish colours. and using chalk with conte just makes it even better 'cause
it's more smudgable. yes, I like using mediums that smudge
messy, but fun. which is probably why I'm not too fond of oil pastels (chalk
pastels are better).
Watercolour is fun, but a little hard to control at times. but I do like the
semi-transparent effect you get from it. Acrylic gives me a lot better control,
and it's fast-drying since I'm an impatient painter. Oils are good too, because
it blends so well (but it takes forever to dry...). mixing acrylic and oil is my
fave way of painting I guess.
now, have you tried Copic markers? they're SO nice and fun to use! esp for anime
art. they have a brush tip, and very smooth application, so it's like using
paint, but with more control.
I sometimes use coloured pencils if I'm lazy, but I don't like how my scanner
picks up the white spots when I do colour with these. so unless I press really
hard when I colour, the scanner makes it ugly. Prismacolours are the best I
find, 'cause they have soft leads, so it's easier to blend. Laurentian isn't too
bad either.
umm, pens, ballpoint as wells as felt-tip markers are fun to experiement with.
I'm not too fond of sharpies though, too dark and goes right through the
paper.
I guess I like to experiement with different mediums.

I use mechanical pencil, or really anything will do as long as it makes marks on paper.
Then I come home, scan, and colour in Photoshop.
ill use anything i can, but what i use most r pencils on paper, black or colored tho most times itll b black lead pencils
I like to use pencils, ink, and paints
