Whoa! How many Copics did you go through to color that much fabric? It's a good thing they're refillable.

It wasn't so bad - only 2x pale sepia and 1x black bear_grin
I don't have an airbrush, so using copics was the only way to color the tiger. Maybe silk paint would have worked too, but I was afraid that I couldn't control the flow of the paint.
