Markers work great! Love them will be buying more certainly! They blend great

There are a lot of different sets under the same listing so for the purpose of clarity I'm referring specifically to the 12 color set. As you may already know, these are.... •Alcohol based •Non refillable •Do NOT have a brush tip, but instead a chisel and slender round tip. Other things of interest: •I was able to blend them with both Copic and Spectrum Noir (how well I blended them is up for debate). •I used Cansons marker pad. Yes, they bleed through. • The Copic (Light Mahogany) I mixed with Prismacolor (Crimson Red) is not very close in color (sorry), but it did make me notice something kinda intersting that maybe a Copic aficionado can explain: why does the Copic look so speckled and bleh next to the Prisma? • They coordinate really well with with Prismacolor pencils. However, Dark Umber is much darker in pencil form and redder in marker form. And I mixed up "pink rose" with "pink ( "rose" in french) hence the initial difference between the pinks.

Guys if you ever find a dried up marker in the set just pull out the marker tip, pour in rubbing alcohol (or any alcohol i guess, since they are alcohol based) close it, shake, and wait one day so they will go back to normal! Just because the marker is dry doesn't mean there isn't any more pigment left. That aside: Amazing set, best marker brand I tried (and I've tried Copics) and great price. Since many people are looking for the specific colors included I took a picture of the color chart. This set is very well worth it and will make any artist happy.

I got these markers for my wife. she doesn't use them all the time, but frequently enough that I am surprised they are still working. These markers just don't seem to quit like the crayola markers I had in school did. The carrying case is also perfectly adequate for the storage of the markers, and we haven't had any issues with the zipper or seams coming apart like you usually see on cheap cases for things like this. all in all, I'd say it was a great buy. They're also a heck of a lot cheaper than your typical professional marker.

Prismacolor markers are new to me, so I can't provide a review on quality. What I can do is provide a color review! If you're looking for something beyond the basic primary set, but also want to avoid breaking the bank on the mother load, this is a fantastic batch of colors for the price. 1 black, 5 assorted blue, 4 assorted green, 5 red-yellow scale, 4 pink/purple hues, and 4 earth tones. Saturation is great--the attached color swatch has mostly single stroke, and some double. The color is rich without having to apply several layers. And multiple layers seem to bleed together seamlessly. I've played around a bit with the colorless blender (NOT included in this set) and can't say I'm super thrilled with the results there. Definitely have had better success blending Faber-Castell artist pens. But again, I need to acquaint myself better with these.

This is a fantastic set of professional quality markers for anyone that likes to draw or sketch or create. There are seventy-two markers in this box. The markers are double-ended: one has a thick chiseled edge, and the other has a very fine point. These two options allow you to fill in color quickly and create fine details. The ink flows evenly and smoothly with great color saturation. Since I couldn't find a nice storage case for it, I reinforced the box it came in with tape and transparent duct tape so that it keeps its shape over time. These make great markers for sketching, adult coloring books, or just for fun. Recommended.

I am a long time user of Prismacolor markers. I bought my first set on the advice of a well known artist friend of mine. I still have that set, but have had to replace markers in onsies as the others run out. It's a bit over 10 years old. One thing I appreciate about this set is that the fine tip end is not the .5mm end that came in my first set. While in theory the .5 tip is handy, it ends up always eventually not getting enough ink. With these they work for most applications and the price was right. Things you should know if you aren't familiar with these markers: 1) The colors are insane. They are bright and vibrant and fairly true to how they are color-coded on the pens. 2) These pens will always be smooth as silk if you take care of them. You don't need to apply tons of damaging pressure because they do what they are supposed to do. 3) Very dense and excellent coverage. Colors vary as to if you have any uneven coverage on a larger area, but you can minimize something like that by coloring in strips instead of circles. 4) Always store them laying flat or nearly flat and this will help keep the ink from favoring one side vs the other. 5) Always make sure you re-cap them tightly. It's easy to do but if you are the type of person who tends to wimp out on re-capping pens you can waste a lot of money. I also have a lot of Copic markers. While I like them as well for some things, the Prismacolors are my go to. Sometimes my Copics leak out and ruin a piece I've worked a lot on but I have never had this problem with Prismacolors, even the brush tips ones.

I needed markers specifically from this brand for my Visual Communications class. Great markers with vivid colors! The one thing I wish was stated with these markers are the colors, so I will list them here for anyone else who is wondering what colors are included. They are as follows: -Mulberry (PM53) -Pink (PM8) -Crimson Red (PM4) -Orange (PM16) -Poppy Red (PM13) -Canary Yellow (PM19) -Tuscan Red (PM169) -Sienna Brown (PM65) -Goldenrod (PM69) -Dark Brown (PM88) -Peach (PM170) -Spanish Orange (PM123) -Violet (PM50) -Indigo Blue (PM43) -Violet Blue (PM42) -Dark Green (PM31) -True Blue (PM39) -Light Cerulean Blue (PM48) -Rhodamine Fucshia (PM55) -Blue Slate (PM145) -True Green (PM166) -Apple Green (PM167) -Grass Green (PM165) -Black (PM98)

These markers are a great affordable option for reliable bright color, juicy ink, and defined lines. Dual-tip allows for both thick coverage and also fine detail. Markers do bleed through regular paper so be prepared with thicker paper and an appropriate under-surface to prevent staining your work area. I recommend using a cutting-mat or cleanable plastic placemat below your artwork. Honestly they’re exactly what I was looking for and came with expected results as I tried them at a friend’s house before buying my own set, it’s good to know what to expect before you commit to it.

I'd never tried Prismacolor Markers before these. I got the 12 piece set, because I figure I can buy more if I want them, individually. These markers are skinnier then I thought. They are very inky! I tried them on Bristol Board (smooth, 100 lb weight paper) and there was bleed-through on the back! I don't have the colorless blender yet, it is coming in the mail, so I can't comment about that. These markers don't streak too bad. I had to apply 2 coats of each color on my picture to achieve smooth coverage. Possibly, I don't know the proper technique with markers? These are nice markers, and I hope my set lasts me a long, long time! Very pleased.
