Copic markers day one

I've owned the grand total of six copic markers for a while now. Three for face, three for hair. All my people had exactly the same colouring! Anyway, I decided to do a copic colouring class through online card classes. I think they're really good value for money -at least they would be, if they didn't always set me to shopping.

I'm not one that needs everything the class uses, but clearly six copics wasn't going to cut it, so I bought 12 more, in pairs of blending colours.
Day one had me colouring balloons and presents. I already learnt a heap about drawing shadows, and blending. Here's the result of my play.
I really must work on staying in the lines!
