Copic Sketch 6pc set, Skin Tone (Discontinued)

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.

LOVED these alcohol markers. Theyre so easy to use. You could not believe how rich these colors look when applying them to your artworks. You can really tell these are quality markers by how clean the colors leave the paper. If youre looking forward to improving your art style THESE are the markers for you.

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.

Works great

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 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.

High quality alcohol based brush tip markers and refillable. Much easier to blend than cheaper brands such as Ohuhu and Bianyo. Can blend with other brands of markers fairly well too, so works well to have the colors that you want refillable such as skin tones if youre a character artist. Picture is an artwork from the wife done with the Copics for skin and Ohuhu/Bianyo markers for the rest of the image.

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

I love the colors and the blend-ability, but Im having issues with sometimes too much ink coming out of the brush tip. I am using blick markers as well as the copic, and I have much more control with the blick markers. But, I didnt have a way to purchase just the skin tones with the blick like I did with the copic.

Love the colors and the tops.
