How to colour in grey scale with letraset promarkers

Take your image and your grey promarkers (ideally 6 in total for this image, 3 of each type i.e. ice grey 1,2,3 / cool grey 1,2,3)

Starting with your first set, I'm using the ice grey set first

Taking the darkest ice grey (ice grey 4), start to highlight sections you want to be dark. I've started on the tail

I've then gone round the main cats body picking out the sections I want in a dark shade

Taking the 2nd darkest colour (ice grey 3), colour in just over and next to the darker grey, don't worry about blending just yet but try to leave to some sections white

Now taking your lightest grey, start to go over the two shades. In small circular motions blend the two darker colours. Don't worry about the ink bleeding over the edge this can fixed.

I've finished going over the main body and now taking another set of 3 greys (cool 2,3 & 4) I've started going over the other sections of the cat (also going over the paws) starting with the darkest

Taking the 2nd darkest again, I've gone over the darker grey, the gone over again to blend in with the lighter grey

If you feel you've lost some of the definition when going over with the lighter grey, take your darkest grey again and just touch up those sections

Then once again go over with your lightest grey

Finally I've gone around the image with a different grey to clean up the ink that leaked over the lines & a blender to tidy up the eyes. Using the same technique on the pillow but in purples
