Copic in the Craft Room: Shading with Complimentary Colors
Great shading tip from Colleen over at "Copic in the craft room."

Great question was posted today, "Please suggest three colors in the earth tones that will give me a deep, rich, brown color with no hints of red?" Colleen Schaan to the rescue once again with a great run down of what you can expect from the earth tones:
Stay away from the E0's, E1's, E2's. The E3's are a good rich brown. The E4's will give you a desaturated (grayish) brown, the E5's will give you an olive brown, the E7's give a nice brown with a mauve undertone - but I like this for really rich browns... reminds me of coconuts, the E8's will give you a green brown and the E9's will give you a terra-cotta brown.
