kuukoukumori noted me with:- "This tutorial is very simple to understand and to the point. There seems to be a ton of copic marker tutorials out there right now, but most of them just have walkthrough process and does not have an explanation of how things are done. *
bybystarlight explains everything in this
Copic Tutorial and Walkthrough by giving lots of techniques and tips to use while colouring. She also has a nice list of supplies to use (some not ordinary), a list of the colours she used, and some not very well known tricks for working with these markers. Her tutorial takes a great knowledge of this medium and applies that practically to an image."

1. Use drafting tape. This stuff is awesome! It has less adhesive than normal masking tape so you don't have to get lint all over it first. It's the perfect balance of enough adhesive to keep ink from leaking under it but little enough to not rip your paper to shreds! We use it all the time for drafting in architecture studio, hence the name "drafting tape". It's stupidly expensive (like, 7-8 dollars a roll) but totally worth it.
2. Use airbrush frisket. Obviously airbrushers have a buttload of masking to do, so this stuff is highly specialized for that purpose. It's this clear film with a light adhesive that you can lay over your work. It's kind of pointless if your just making boxes, but if you want you can cut out highly intricate shapes for complex masking needs. I'm not sure how applicable this is to marker rendering, but some people may find it useful :3. The major downside to this is that it's typically laid on the work before parts are cut out, so a new Exact-o blade and an EXTREMELY light and careful hand are necessary.
3. Use ghetto airbrush frisket. The formal frisket is really nice but kind of expensive, so you can just use a temporary fixative and trace paper if you want to be cheap (like me!). Also it's easier to trace your work and cut out the necessary pieces BEFORE you glue to your work, so it may save you some accidental score lines (once again, like me XD).
And as a side note I have no idea if I spelled frisket right so hopefully you'll still be able to tell what I'm talking about XD
