Copic Marker Quick Tip + Points giveaway

Hey sexies! Just a Copic Marker Quick tip! While coloring a drawing (to be uploaded soon), I struggled with an issue that I have come across several times before. The problem is the ink coming out of a certain marker appears blotchy and and is clumped and sticky, and causes a grungy, messy texture. Have any of you had this problem before? Well, the reason is because the pigment in the marker is too strong, this usually happens with very saturated colors. Markers that have done this to me before are B06, R39, R37, V99 and so forth. A solution is to either: A) use a different marker, B) use the medium broad nib instead, or C) Change the nib, and refill the marker. The cause is that when exposed to too much oxygen, the strong pigment starts to slightly dry and crystallize, therefor causing a blockage. The polyester nib is then slightly damaged and will produce the same ink flow unless it is changed. I recommend to deal with this right away because it could damage the quality of your coloring!

Now, onto the points giveaway. First person to give a personal, useful, unknown copic tip (by commenting on this journal) will get 120 points! I will then share that tip with a mini feature on my next journal entry! Thanks and share away
