Copic markers (need an advise)
11 years ago
Hi guys! :)
I need an advice. I have long want to buy a copic markers, but I have many doubts since I never draw with them. I want to buy the whole set with many colors at once (rather than several single colors) to be a fully immersed in this medium. So I need an advice which copic markers are best to buy. Particularly I interested in advice from people who actively draw with them or had experience with it. I've watched a bunch of lessons about drawings with copic markers and I can't wait to try it! And yes I know this is a pretty expensive stuff, but I want it!

A great alternative to Copics are Spectrum Noirs. They don't blend as well, but they're A LOT cheaper, and they're also refillable. :D
I really like Copics :3 They're refillable, the blend nicely, they have a wide array of colors... they're my preferred marker, hands-down!
There are some copic knockoffs that are a lot cheaper. I purchased a set of 72 as a 'convention' set as my main pack of copics are a LOT more valuable and I'd miss them a lot more if they get lost in the midst of a convention.
They're called Spectrum Noir and just lack the brush tip. They're refillable although the bottles are a little expensive.
I snagged my set on ebay... here's a listing I just found: http://bit.ly/1neg3D1
Hope that helps!
