Copic Sketch 6pc set, Skin Tone (Discontinued)

They are grate but when I used the copper it leaked out everywhere messing up everything I thought it my fault at first thinking I pressed down to hard so I redone it and well the same thing happened again.. I’m honestly not so sure about the copper it might have been me doing something wrong but just a warning?.. (the other ones did amazingly)

Being a newcomer to Copic markers, I wasnt entirely sure what to expect. Many artists I admire use Copics for coloring their drawings, so I decided to give them a shot. Needless to say, they fulfilled and even surpassed my expectations! Copic markers are often criticized for their high price tags, retailing from around five to eight USD, but upon receiving them, I understood why they retail at this price. They are incredibly high-quality markers, and some of the best for blending. Since Copics are alcohol-based, you are able to use them to layer your coloring more without worrying about tearing the paper. Personally, I much prefer the look of alcohol-based markers over other markers such as dye or water-based markers. The colors appear vibrant and beautiful on the page and compliment any drawing wonderfully. Copics, when used properly, should last you a fairly long time. Once the ink has run out, Copic offers replacement ink refillers which is a great alternative to being forced to buy many new markers. I have not yet had to refill my markers so I cant say how well this works from personal experience, but Ive heard from others that refilling Copics is an easy and rewarding process. There are a few things beginners like me should be wary of when using Copics, however. As with any other marker, there is always the possibility of smudging your lineart if youre like me and tend to ink a sketch before coloring it. This can also unfortunately apply to pencil eraser smudges; I have often had eraser smudges appear much more visibly on my coloring with them being near-impossible to remove. A great way to avoid this is photocopying a high-quality scan your lineart and instead coloring the scan to avoid the risk of messing up the original. If youre a beginner to using Copics, the skin tone pack is a great place to start your collection. If you tend to draw characters or portraits, skin tones will definitely be a necessity. This is where I started my Copic collection, and the high quality of the skin tone pack impressed me enough to add many more Copics to my collection since. In conclusion, if you have interest in finding a good marker, these are a great, albeit pricey choice. If youre on-the-fence about purchasing these markers, you might find it a better option to purchase one color individually to make sure you enjoy them before wasting your money on a product you dont enjoy. Many stores such as Micheals allow you to test the marker on a piece of scrap paper before buying it. If you do feel confident about buying these markers, however, I say go for it! Their high quality and long-lasting color is well worth the price.

These are nice markers. We bought them for our daughter because they were on sale for quite a discount. Normally her art budget means we get her Ohuhu or some other off brand alcohol marker. Decided to let her try these since they were the same price. She said she likes them and they are of equal quality to the cheaper ones we typically get her. If they are on sale we would consider them again, but they arent nice enough to merit the full price tag otherwise.

These markers ran out way quicker than normal. We have bought copic markers in the past and they all lasted a much longer time. We contacted Amazon and they refunded our purchase price to buy a new replacement pack. Hopefully the next set is longer lasting then the one we received.

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

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.

Love my Copics

Gifted this to my daughter and she is so pleased with it! She has been using them for two months and has nothing g negative to say. She loved this brand for her sketching, which she’s been doing for years now.

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!

My grandson enjoyed using this product for realistic drawing.
