Blog/Site Moved

Unfortunately I had to move my costume domain name site content into another blogger, I have no idea what Google done to it nor can I access it anymore.
I imported my old template on this new blog and so far I can't seem to buy a costume domain name for it ;-; , I am still looking on how this works , before it was much simpler but due to my domain name being over 5 years old and issues in my credit card which was reprinted with a new serial number I can't pay for the old name nor can I prove its mine :'') soooo I decided to go with blogger for now since its the most familiar thing I know how to use as a main base for me , also gonna limit my social media activities to the sites on the upper left side of this blog in "where you can find me on the web list" , its simply a lot more easier plus mobile apps makes posting also more accessible since I am sorta a mobile / tablet user than laptop , with that I end up this weird / sad update thing :")

also the blog needs to be 6 months old before enabling adsense :") wahoooo :"D , I was looking forward to make some money outta of this blog too :")

Copic Alternative : Cheap Marker Tutorial 101

I realized I have not shared this handy tool with everyone, the post it self can't cover more than briefly the info on the markers and best/cheapest place to buy it from, since I know copics are expensive I looked for other options and I came across these 2 brands , touchfive and finecolour markers , I am gonna go briefly over them and embed a youtube as well as a 101 tutorial on the post to explain more on it.

Basically the marker price from aliexpress is around 1$ - not ebay or Amazon cause they double the price of the marker , touchfive are refillable and you can take out the nibs so you can try to refill them with any kinda refill not just copics refills but there could be cheaper refills like the spectrum noir or touch the original markers , touchfive is sorta a knock off from it hence the name is even close , they have a set of 168 colors , the finecolour 1st generation r not refillable but 2nd I think can be refilled , the thing is 1st generation have a 240 colors and 2nd only only have 160 colors and yes they look knock off from copics.

Both brands have a shizle tip and fine point tip and yes both have a bunch of sets you can buy them in (24/36/48/72/80/160/168/240) , if you order the large sets of 160 or more from aliexpress usually it will be shipped in about 2 weeks with DHL (or similar service) free of charge to most countries, the 168 sets can range between 120-150$ and they can go even to 100-110$ on discount time , I ended up getting my 240 finecolours markers for about 199$ , the 240 set can range between 220-300$ which is a lot cheaper than what is sold at my country , the brand we have are alpha markers the normal ones are 3$ per pen and the brush ones are 4$ while pro markers are 3$ and here 1$ = 10 LE now adays (bad economy period at the moment in Egypt ;-;) so every art tool is extremely high !! Overall these are great for people who are starting markers or looking for a cheap alternative overall , my advice is go with the touchfive markers 168 set, even though they have less colors chart still they r very versatile and refillable as well.

Here is a colored sample I did with both finecolours and touchfive markers :

Here is the finecolour set of 240 colors on aliexpress (note if u buy this set from their android up the price will be around 214$ instead of 225$ - usually aliexpress gives discounts more when u buy stuff from them from their app) :
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/240-Colors-Finecolour-Graphic-Art-Twin-Tip-Marker-Sketch-Pens-Broad-Fine-Point-Alcohol-Markers-Set/32585491919.html
The touchfive markers 168 set (again this is 10$ less if u buy it from their app, just save this on your wish list then go to it from your mobile and this will price around 120$ , on the site it self is 130$)

Note : these 2 links are from the same store and I bought from it my finecolour makers and usually the seller will stay in touch with you till you get your markers , also the English system seems odd a bit , I do think they use google translate I think :")

Another note : only large set are shipped via DHL things like 80 color sets or less with be send via china airmail which means it will be delivered to your country post office and I don't know how long that will take but if u order large sets 168 or 240 sets they will be send via DHL cause china air mail usually ships objects that are 2 kg (5 pounds) or less but 168-240 sets can range in weight between 3.5-4.5 kg (7-12 pounds) and yes they come with their bags as well :D

If u have questions post in them on my youtube comment section of the video I'm gonna to embed on the post not on this blog post and watch the video as well because it covers many other things I wasn't able to write in this post because it'll be very long if I did :") 

For more on these 2 brands check this 101 video in them :
