Art-n-Fly 3 Alcohol Blender Markers with Double Tip – Brush Markers Colourless for Shades and Gradients

At the time I purchased these colorless blenders I was coloring using coloring pencils. I was looking for a product that would blend (smoosh) the colors together. I came across these blenders and read some reviews that these would do the task. Disappointingly these blenders did not do the job I bought them for. I found them to be pretty useless at blending Prismacolor Scholar pencils. However, at the time of developing my interest in coloring I developed an interest in using Copic markers. Wow are they expensive. I color with Copic markers the way a child colors with Crayola markers. May be Copics aren’t meant for amateurs like me, and I’m an artist wannabe, but who cares I like Copic markers! Anyway, if you are a heavy marker user you start to realize that to keep up with the high demand in ink usage, you need to buy ink refills.So you’re wondering where on earth is this review going? Eventually I abandoned Prismacolor pencils as my main medium for coloring, and instead I use them as accents or to add detail to my Copic coloring. As my Copic marker and ink collection started to grow, then I realized I can use the colorless blenders on Copic markers. I found that the colorless blenders did not blend the markers very well, and then read somewhere or heard on a YouTube video that they aren’t good for that purpose. I found that these colorless blenders are very good at pushing small amounts of Copic color into the page to hide small mistakes, they create certain effects with the ink, and one more thing, I put some ink refill onto the colorless blenders to make my own colors. So I have kept one marker unadulterated, and I have added ink to the other two to create two different colors.The colorless blenders aren’t cheap, but they are very versatile, and they might work (though not for me) on your coloring pencils and smoosh the colors together.

These are very nice markers. I gave these as part of a gift to my granddaughter who is 15. She said she used to always look forward to starting school because she'd always get such cool supplies to start back with & mentioned she missed getting "the fun stuff". So I decided to get he a couple sets of these to just enjoy on her own. They are comfortable to hold and are great colors and very nice to write with. They also have six glitter pens in the set which are really quite nice to write in a special card or such. They actually could have a bit more glitter for me and it would be great if you could buy a whole set of just the glitter ones, but all in all they are super nice & she liked them. Her friends really liked them too when she opened them, so they were a hit.

I wanted a decent quality alcohol marker blender to smooth out colored pencil work. These work fine for this. The brush tip is not a true brush, but a solid silicone(?) brush like tip that works better than a cheap brush. The only negative so far for me, is that the tip stains with pencil pigment, and can transfer some color to the page. I brush it across scrap paper a few times to release color, but I find that a very small amount of pigment might still transfer. This does not worry me, but it might frustrate another, more particular colorist. Overall, I like the marker, and will continue to use them for smoothing and some blending. I think they are slightly overpriced, but I am pretty satisfied about my purchase of three.

New to alcohol markers and read some reviews online,decided to buy because of the pastel color set that this brand offers. sometimes bulk cheaper alcohol markers like ohuhu don't have as many light and pastel colors, according to YouTube reviewers. Many people who use alcohol markers seem to want more light colors as it is easier to use for beginners so I went ahead and bought this set along with a set of ohuhu 48 color markers. It did not disappoint! I already love pastel colors but these markers brought me so much joy. This drawing was made using only colors from the pastel set. They are great to use and look amazing! I love the water color effect! If you lik using light colors, buy! They can also be refilled as I know I would lean towards using these colors more.

I just got these 30 minutes ago and couldn’t wait to do this review. These markers will definitely give Copic a run for their money.The brush nib is soft and flexible and leaves no streaks. They are definitely drier than Copic and maybe even drier than Ohuhu but the coverage is great. Maybe they’re designed to be drier. As I like my markers juicer, I added a few drops of my homemade blender solution and it’s perfect.The colors in this set are pastels and they are truly pastel. Copic is less saturated with color than Ohuhu but still Copic is a little over-saturated for me. But these markers are perfect light bright colors. They do increase in value as you go over and over the same area but it’s still a beautiful light color.When coring over one color with another they blend well to create a new color.The marker itself is a hexagon and I was concerned the barrel might be too big as I have small hands but it instantly felt comfortable. My only concern here is that the top must go on so that the top perfectly matches the barrel. I’m afraid if I get in a hurry and don’t properly put the top on correctly, the ink might dry up.As to blending, you can see that these light colors blend well. I’m definitely ordering the complete marker set and will review blending with those.All in all, great value and product. Hop they come out with more colors.

For me and my friend, we noticed they dried out fairly quick (I gave her one from the pack) Still did it's job though but wish it lasted longer. Luckily it's a pack of 3 so still lasts longer than just one.
