Troubleshooting

Marker ink appears streaky or uneven.

Ensure you are using bleedproof paper. Make sure the nibs are clean and not damaged. Try applying more even pressure while coloring.

Marker ink is bleeding through the paper.

Use thicker, bleedproof paper. Reduce the amount of ink applied to the paper, and let it dry completely before adding additional layers. Check the paper type.

Markers are not blending smoothly.

Use blending techniques. Try using a colorless blender marker. Practice on a separate sheet until you achieve the desired effect. Make sure the paper is compatible.
