Copic Sketch 6pc set, Skin Tone (Discontinued)

Besides the ridiculous price for the Copic Skin Tone marTone, They seem to last a long time. I am just bewildered by the pricing for these markers. As a cartoonist / sketch artist this price is a little steep. Plus it is pretty tough to find skin tone markers that will last a while and not run dry when you trying to color a picture. So basically you have to buy them. Would say its worth the pruce. But it is better to buy them in bulk, because the price for a single one of these Markers is about 9 dollars. Crazy, I know... Overall works really well. If you store them in a cool place the ink will indeed last a long time.

These are just quick sketches from my sketchbook that I used these markers for the skin. Using them on better paper would be better. But I love these so much. Would buy again and recommend. I was worried about buying through Amazon but my local art store sell this for triple the price and I’m glad I went through here

Easy to use. My son loves these but good lord they are expensive!!!! I honestly don’t understand the difference between these and other cheaper brands that do the same thing.

These are great. One very bad thing... the first time I used one of the markers in this set, ink just spilled right out of the tip of the marker. I dont know how or what I did to cause it. That was annoying and felt extremely wasteful! The colors are great and they have great quality. For some reason, Copic Markers are just easier for me to control (keep in the lines and lay down exactly where I want it). Now two of these markers have leaked through the brush tip.

When I received my marker set, I noticed immediately that their plastic sleeve was scuffed up and slightly dirty looking. I did a swatch test and small drawing using each marker and one of them was pretty dry. It very much appeared as if I had gotten a used set of markers, but I cant be sure. Copic is a good brand despite being (in my opinion) very overpriced, but I would not buy from this seller again.

A review from my 17yr old daughter, after all, shes the one who uses them: Ive owned several sets of Prismacolor markers, but when I got a bunch of Amazon giftcards for Christmas, I decided it was time to up my game. I bought this set because Copic has such a good reputation, and because a set of skin tones is a really good way to start out a collection. All of these work very well together, shade just right, etc. etc, with the only exception being that the second-darkest and darkest colors do not actually work to shade each other, and I had to go buy another marker to work with those, but it wasnt a big deal. As per expected, these Copics work perfectly, although best on actual Copic-brand paper (figures), which is another 11 dollars. Id recommend these to any serious or semi-serious traditional comic artist. My only problem is my problem with all Copic products - theyre so damn expensive! Worth it, though, if you can afford them.

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.

My daughter is an artist and brush-tipped markers are her favorite. These retail for $8-$10 apiece at our local art supply store, so to get this many on-brand high-quality archival markers for this price is incredible. She draws with them every day. They blend beautifully and the colors are vibrant. Best of all: You can refill them! :-D

Love my Copics

These markers may be expensive, but they are the best blending markers in the game. The skin tone colors work for an array of complexions. The markers are also water resistant. I have a tendency to paint over my illustrations with watered down acrylic paints and Ive never had a problem with colors running due to the water. I wish I could afford to buy an entire set of Copics. They are truly worth the price. Thanks for making such a great marker. The art world loves you for it.
