1930s Style ProMarker Tutorial

I’ve done some more ProMarker colouring, and thought I’d post the steps and pens used. Let me know what you think and if you’d like any more. The image is a stamp from Circa Designs, VA-IM-11 1930s lady in frame (big), available from their website which is listed on the suppliers page. Apologies for the photo colouring – I’ll find my tripod and decent lighting next time.
