hi Kay love the video :) Thanks for sharing your updates i am going to get the townscapes book because i think its beautiful. thank you for sharing it!
I use alcohol blender on inktense or other water soluble pencil all the time, It allows me to use them safely on double sided or thin paper, including Amazon paper, as long as I only activate them once. You can activate multiple times if bleeding isn't an issue. There is no warping at all. It's actually become my favorite way to color either alone or as a base for pencil...so much so I just invested in a big bottle of high percentage alcohol to attempt refilling my blenders, I'm going through so much of it. I wouldn't suggest using it over an alcohol marker base though because it will lift the color on the base leaving light/white patches. It could be interesting if planned out carefully though.. say for smoke or clouds where those white edges would be appropriate. A tip on sponging.. it's easier to do small areas if you rip off a little piece of the sponge and use a tool to grip it. Locking forceps are the best, but tweezers work. Go darker than you think, especially if sponging water soluble media on wet paper as it will dilute on contact. You can dab over it with a clean wet sponge if needed to lift color... also wet the sponge and then squeeze it in a towel first to take out 99% off the water, it will keep the sponge from soaking up color as much.
FYI the King Art metallic markers aren't good either, hopefully save someone some money. I bought them because they had a white and it didn't sparkle in the slightest. I feel like we need a focused coloring supply review page somewhere like they have for cosmetics, so many products are either total fails or hidden gems we could help each other out.

That’s good to know about the Spectrum Noir not bleeding…I always thought it was the paper that determined that! Are they better than Ohuhu?
