Poster colours are a versatile medium for sketching, offering vibrant hues and easy blending. However, their opaque nature can make fine details challenging to achieve.  Additionally, they may dry with a slightly different shade than when wet. Dilution with water can mitigate this, but may affect colour intensity.  Furthermore, their tendency to crack when applied thickly restricts layering. Despite these limitations, poster colours can create bold, expressive sketches with a unique, flat finish. To maximise their potential, artists should experiment with dilution levels and embrace their distinctive qualities to create impactful and dynamic sketches
