Marker set for Procreate?

I've been lurking on this sub for awhile and am really blown away by how amazing plain old coloring pages can look. I'd like to give it a go but don't need yet another new hobby to spend money on. I already have an ipad, Apple pencil, and Procreate so thought I'd start with that. I see lots of alcohol marker brushes for sale but cannot figure out which one is legit. Some don't even seem legit. Does anyone have a pack they have purchased that they liked and looks similar to the real thing?

Bold & Easy style coloring books with more representation/variety?

I am looking for is something with less feminine/more types of people or characters that are in this bold and easy style book that aren't just Halloween themed. Like alt girls, goth girls, girls with disabilities, tattoos, piercings, funky hair styles, gamer girls, etc. I'd also like to see maybe some androgyny or other genders too! Maybe something with less hearts/flowers/bows/fluffy stuff. I don't mind cute, I love cute, but I am craving variety of people and objects! Even books that are mostly places like houses or gardens are still very girlie coded with hearts and bows and such.

I know these kind of coloring books exist in other art style formats, but I haven't found any in the bold and easy style, which is what I am looking for more of because this format is easier on my eyes than most 'adult' coloring books are with tons of small lines.

I am not hating on "girlie" things and the bulk of my collection are these coco wyo style books, I love them too! I am just looking for more variety and representation in this type of art style with the thicker lines if it exists.

I have the winston the wizard and the mountain folk coloring books, which are awesome, but once I fill those up I'm sure going to want more.

Looking for more books like Girl Moments

Hello coloring friends! As much as I love all the animal characters, I'm looking for more books with human characters like Girl Moments by Coco Wyo. What are your suggestions?

Done!

My first page from Dark Fairytales is complete!

I used mainly Prismacolor pencils but also some Chromaflow & Polychromos. The background is acrylic markers. My diamonds are a bit wonky but it’s Alice in Wonderland so it actually works out! 😅 Really enjoyed this page 🖤

I started coloring 2 weeks ago and today tried doing highlights & shadows for the first time! advice & tips welcome as I want to improve ☺️

I think it could look a lot better and I smudged the pen a little but overall I’m happy and think I’m improving with coloring :)

Marker organization

Hello fellow coloring fanatics! I have 288 markers. I color in bed only (chronic illness/pain makes it so that's easier). I have 2 bags I’m using right now but they're cumbersome using 2 of them. Has anyone found a good way to organize all your markers in 1 bag/container BUT have them all in a slot or something so they're not all completely mixed up and loose? Thanks!

I messed this up but still sharing because WTF.

I was inspired by all the people doing themes with this page. Mine is obvious. I was already bored with the colors when I realized I could have done Laverne and Shirley or Lucy and Ethel or lots of other ones. Ugh. Anyway,
