Hi, I'm new on the forum and have yet to make my first bear, and need a little advice. What pens do I use for shading that won't fade. Is there a pattern that inserts a different fur for the nose or mussle? I really appreciate any help or advise that anyone is able to give. Thank you so much.

I use Prisma Markers. I find Coppic markers fade. It’s important to know that when you finish shading, you heat set it with a hairdryer. Wave the dryer over the shaded areas for a couple of minutes to set it. That should prevent feeding.
