These are the same Copic colors as last time, only this time I applied them with the markers directly rather than with the airbrush tool.
I also alternated colors from row to row (more or less) rather than doing all of one color at once. I’ve noticed in the past that some markers tend to dry up a little after a few minutes of constant use, so I thought I’d see if giving them a break between rows might help. Turned out it didn’t make much difference. BG78 Bronze in particular weakened as I went (compare the upper left to the lower right), while the other background color (BG57 Jade) fared better.
Both the blues I used for the leaf stayed strong for the whole time. This is the difference I’d expect for two nearly identical hues and shades: B28 Royal Blue and B29 Ultramarine. They were much farther apart in the airbrushed ghost.
Also Ultramarine was the first color I chose, in honor of it being W&N’s color story of the week. The rest just naturally fell into place after testing what markers did and didn’t work with the new tool.
