Copic Sketch 6pc set, Skin Tone (Discontinued)

The nibs are great, ink quality is too. I love the replaceable nibs and ink refills, has a great quality overall.

These markers are awesome, but not really worth the price since you do have to buy refills and they run out of ink quickly. These arnt that great of skin tones, ive found better ones with pro makers thats half the price. But over all they do color really well. Easy to blend! They work perfect with pro markers and prisma. Wouldnt buy them again since i could buy cheaper makers that work EXACTLY the same. It is a good starter kit though. Pros -brush tip is good for hair details. -brush tip helps a lot with tight areas and helps blend -they come with refills -durable -work well with other markers cons -expensive (there are cheap alt. that work the same) -doesnt hold much ink

Christmas came early! Daughter who is an AMAZING hyper realistic drawing has been coveting these markets. Her friend guided me through purchasing. Since expensive I wanted to get the right ones. She said the grey scale & flesh tones are staples. When my daughter opened the box she screamed and jumped back! She’s 19 years old for Christmas isn’t too “magical” ha ha. She cautiously asked “are these mine? I said it’s early, but yeah, they are yours I won’t make you wait until Christmas... them she ran off to her room where she stayed in an artistic bubble for days!

These markers are AMAZING. I love the brush tips. I personally think they are better than Ohuhu’s, but are too pricey. I was just really disappointed that 2 of the markers were the wrong color. I received E000 instead of E13 and E93 rather than R20. I’m still upset but the markers are really great, just wish they sent the right products.

Honestly, I have never used Copic Markers before but the texture and color it has on paper is extremely smooth. It is dual-tipped, dries quickly and has an accurate and great color but unfortunately bleeds through the paper (at least the one I used which was supposed to be bleed-proof paper). The product was shipped on time (brand new and in the original packaging) and I was very happy when I used them for the first time since the Copic Markers had great reviews and was highly recommended. I attached a picture of the picture I drew and colored with E00 (Skin White). cookie-hakase is my DeviantArt username.

My teenager uses these. She bought them to use for skin tones. A little pricey, but hopefully will last a long time.

My daughter had been asking for Copic markers forever and especially these shading ones....so I decided to spring for the 6 piece set. They did take a couple of weeks to get here but were well worth it. The level of happiness from my daughter spoke volumes...she is exceptionally happy with them, they do what she wanted them to do and what was advertised and they are very high quality. They were worth the wait.

I was so excited to find a set of markers that gave me some options for skin tones-- nothing is more frustrating than the lack of skin tone choices currently available! Reading up on copics, I noted that many people use layering techniques with this set to create additional tones; I havent yet tried that. These markers are incredibly smooth and easy for a novice to use. They do have a fairly strong odor akin to rubbing alcohol, so if you are sensitive, you may want to consider that.

Best markers to use if you can afford them

Copic markers are amazing. They blend so much better, have better tips, have replaceable tips, and are refillable. The Sketch markers are better than the other three lines because they store more ink than the Ciao, have the brush tip the Classics dont, have an oval shape that cuts down on hand cramps, and have the color code on the lids (you would not believe how useful this is). If youre considering Sketch or Ciao, I highly recommend Sketch. This skin tone set is very good to have. Having varied tones in your images makes it more interesting and inclusive. If you draw in a more realistic manner, youll need the contrast that you can get from this kit. I also use the makers from this set in pretty much any drawing where I need brown shades. I get a whole lot of use out of this and I know you will too!
