Hello Albert and community, first of all Thank You so much for the course, it is very well structured, and I really enjoyed drawing along.
For this course I picked few Copic markers( which I really enjoyed working with) and since I couldn't find Windsor Newton markers in my area and Copic were a bit pricey for my budget,I chose Prismacolor markers, which are pretty good especially light tones.
I attached steps of my project below, I'm pretty satisfied with the results, but I don't really like how purple my building turned out. I intended it to be dark, and since I didn't have dark brown colour I used light purple to shade some areas. Is there any advice on how to make areas in shade dark, but not to purple or pink?
Thanks again for the course.

Teacher PlusYou have done wonderfully! I can completely follow your steps and I love all the studies you have made. You could make small color studies as well to test how the colors behave. But also importantly, make a color chart from the colors you have. That way you can see the exact way the look. I use my color charts all of the time. And it's also the first thing I do when I buy new colors. For the orang, you could try a darker red brown for the shadows for instance. But you can see how things react if you make some color thumbnails.
You may try OHUHU markers. They are more affordable and they have an incredible range of colors available.
