I was just wondering what your favorite images or companies were for coloring with copics. I am just getting started using copics and I realize that I don't have a lot of stamps that work well.

Most definitely my favorite images for Copic coloring would be Magnolia...just love the Tilda (and Edwin) images! But there are so many more...A Muse, for one, although they're tiny and you really need the Copic Original (square style) with the fine tip end to get into those little areas without going outside the lines.
I agree with Molly - LOTS to choose from. It's really a matter of what type of stamp you like - children, animals, flowers, butterflies, etc.
A couple of my faves are Elzybells & Clear $ Stamps. I prefer the images with simple lines, few details and little or no highlighting & shading. Almost all Elzybells are like that, some of CDS are. Another one you might wish to look @ is Whiff of Joy.
If you're interested in digi stamps, there are lots of options available that way too.
I like the Whiff of Joy, Sugar Nellie and or course the Magnolia images to color with my Copic's. There are some of the Stamping Bella's that I have used as well. There are a few of my SU stamps that I can use the Copic's with also. There is so much choice and not enough money for all the different images out there.

Oh....lots and lots...
Some of my favorites are The Greeting Farm, Dustin Pike Digital Images, Pink Cat Studio, & CC Designs (they have a great selection of rubber, but also give options on many of their images for digi too!) Fred She Said, and Squigglefly (more digi companies) My Favorite Things...oh, I could go on...but I won't. ;)
I would say that I am a huge "image" person, I love the Magnolia's, Stampavie, anything that is something you recall coloring as a child. Not sure if you know where to find em' but here is a store that I purchase from (Magnolia's) and she has the newest Magnolia's on pre-order as well!
I absolutley love Sugar Nellies Gorjuss Girls stamps with the copics and the Homegrown series, I love Stamping Bella stamps period lol so those are great and I have found House Mouse stamps awesome with the copics. Just recently going to try SU stamps with them but they have tonnes of cute stamps period. Depends if your big into shading or just coloring. HTH's.
But truthfully, any open lined image will do. I collect penguin and cat stamps, so Cat's Pajamas and Memory Box Stamps call my name frequently, which I guess means I hear voices in my head. :cool:
I love most outline stamps.
Just to name a few: Penny Black, Whiff of Joy, some digi companies: digital stamp oasis, dustin pike, fred she said.
Can you tell I love cute images.
Ooh, thank you so much for all your suggestions. I am going to go check out all of the companies you mentioned. Hmmm. Now does that mean I get to buy new stamps?

LOVE this thread! I now look for stamps that will be nice images to color! It's nice to have "stamp-and-go" images in your stash too, but I love coloring with my copics. The Rachelle Anne Miller stamps are LARGE and perfect for lots of coloring. I second what somebody said about digital images, they are so much fun! And cheap too!
