Great copic pen, took four days on Prime delivery.Amazon driver yet again couldn't be bothered to close out gate, wich is a danger to our dog if we don't realise it's left open!Time and again if we get to the door before the driver has gone, we say "can you close the gate?", the gate they physically had to open with the latch to deliver the parcel, they dome how presume that a quick push too will shut it!!This is not acceptable, and as I've stated puts our beloved dogs life at risk if we don't realise the driver has done this.Unfortunately there is no way of pointing this out on the "tell us how we did?" questionnaire, so I'm posting here instead.

I use this green more than any other colour in my collection of copic markers and it is my favourite green. It is bright and vibrant and ideal for colouring leaves. If you are starting out with buying these pens it is very expensive and I would recommend getting this as one to start with. It blends well with other greens and like all other colours in the copic sketch marker range, it lasts for a very long time. The caps come off easily but stay down firm when put on. The shape of the pen is designed not to roll off the desk. There are two sides and indicated on the top of the ten to show you which side is which. One side is for thick lines or colouring large areas and the thinner side is shaped like a paint brush and glides on the page. The green shade has a slight undertone of yellow and also blends well with yellow shades.It is ideal for colouring and dries very fast. This is an alcohol ink pen and if you use it for colouring in adult colouring books it will bleed to the next page. You would need to put a piece of cardboard being your drawing so that it won't bleed on to the page behind.I recently started buying the copic refills which makes this work out even cheaper and you can reuse this pen again and again and refill it with the refill inks available.

This RED colour copic sketch marker pen is the one that I use the most. It is a vibrant bright red and is quite similar to number R29. I love the fact that the pen is refillable too as these pens are very expensive when you first purchase them. They are a good investment as they never dry out even if you haven't used them in months. In the long I have found that copic sketch pens work out a lot cheaper than buying cheap alternatives that just do not give the same results.One side of the pen is thicker and the other is the thinner option. I almost always only use the thin side but it is handy to have the option of the thick side too. The top clicks down so there is no fear of the lid falling off. The shape of the pen is also designed not to roll off the desk.The more you go over the same coloured in section of your picture the more the colour builds up with each layer you use.If you are only starting out buying these pens, IMHO I would start with R27 as one of the first colours to collect as it is one of the colours that is most useful.

I bought two Copic markers before buying a whole set so that I could see if I liked them first.I bought Tender Pink (RV13) and Pale Pink (RV10), two close colours to practice blending. They work really nicely although, I should have picked two colours which are even closer. At first, I was worried that they were too close and there would be no difference between the two but I was far from correct. They're actually really far apart, which now makes me understand why people in tutorials suggest you get colours that differ by one digit to blend. It is possible to blend really different colours though, after much practice and a specific technique.Also, the colours come up much darker than they appear on colour charts. So when you select them, go for one a couple shades lighter like you would wallpaper and make a colour chart with your own pens rather than rely on a printed one. I'm happy with these and after trying them out, I bought my first 72 set of sketch markers and they're great.

Copic markers are pretty much flawless when it comes to markers. Though pricey (though I wait until they are on special offer on amazon and only buy from amazon if cheaper than copic store directly), they are worth it. The fact they are refillable makes it worth the cost and good investments long term even if the start up price is more than other markers. The brush nib is great for colouring, blending and layering and is my primary marker nib due to it’s versatility. In an oval barrel shape so it doesn’t roll and the dark gray line to let you know which end is which easily.I would recommend these markers over any others due to the smooth colour and high quality.
