Monster Markers & the Effects

We are planning to use Monster permanent markers to outline several aspects of our design; we had doubts whether these would be too thick to use for fine detail on the characters.
We tested out the markers, using different pen widths to create different effects and marks; here is a photo of the range of line thickness we used in our trial.



The thickness of the marker itself meant that they were quite hard to manipulate, and the lines often looked quite sinister in contrast to the happy and colourful designs. The ink proved to be very durable and effective, as the lines came out smooth and jet black, which will work well with the graphic style of our mural.

These images show the process of before and after using the Monster marker.
