Yeah, I'm not a big fan of art markers, though I do use them for quick things or color tests. I used to work with color pencil a lot more but it was just too time-consuming. I tried watercolors and liked it, then moved on to gouache and never looked back.
Acrylics I never liked much, though I hear they're much different now than when I used them in college. My first love was oils but I don't have a studio to work with them, so they'll have to wait. :)

i used pencil for the longest time myself and it IS incredibly time consuming. acrylics are a bit of a paint to get to work for you but they CAN be worth it depending on what kind of look your aiming for... i dispise coloring markers.. as ive always been in the habit of texturing they just never cliqed with me...
