Ooooh fab artwork. I love using acrylic markers. I have posca and Karin decobrush markers. I love using them both. What I love most about the Karin markers is that you shake and go you don’t have to prime anything and the posca so just love making large expressive marks with them or if I can’t be bothered to get acrylic paint out and it’s a fairly small project then I’ll use the markers. I’ve never used them both together so that could be something to try out and see how they interact with each other 🤔

I have a few posca markers that I like to use on acrylic paintings, but I've never painted anything fully with acrylic markers, unless you count decorating rocks :) The metallic markers are nice, but I definitely prefer the "regular" 24 set. I really like the colours included, and it's great that there's also a gold and a silver

The prep work is honestly one of the things that I dislike about acrylic markers as a whole. I found that after the initial preparing, I created quite a bit and only the yellow needed to be done again but take care of your hands ❤️

Thank you for mentioning how much pressure is required for pushing the top to get the ink flowing. Too much required for me. I was curious about the pens but yes in general I’m not really an acrylic markers person unless I fill my own. Informative and helpful 👍🌸

Thanks for sharing this!!! These are awesome! I haven’t used acrylic markers yet, but I did just order some and now after watching your video, I might need to get both of these sets as I love the matte finish and how beautifully they lay on paper. I think I will use them most for adding detail over my watercolor pieces! I absolutely LOVE the piece you did in the video though! Thanks again as this was super helpful!!! ❤ FYI- I just purchased around 65 of the Ferris Wheel Ink Press inks that I plan to use in my watercolor work. I hope to create my first KZread video by the end of February showing swatches and painting with them. I wanted to do this as there is not much out there on these being used for painting and I think they are beautiful! I will try to remember to come back to this video and let you know when it is uploaded😉☺️

These markers look beautiful. I love your review videos. I love the metallic one because I love blink in my work. I can really get to know a product because I buy it. Thanks a lot. I bought acrylic markers but haven't use them yet. The pumping really prevent me to use them. I saw many videos of people using acrylic markers to make beautiful piece. That's why I want to try too. Maybe I should try them on a coloring page to start.

⁠@@SketchesnScrubsYeah… Pressing the top button would open the valve temporarily… So if the pen is upside down the ink isn’t getting to the tip 😅 The colors looks so pretty, yes I love that same teal/turquoise… And I love that it’s a brush nib. Yeah I’m sold > With the brush markers you can’t have the typical press the nib in mechanism since that would definitely damage the nib… I very much prefer brush pens so I’m excited for these! I don’t like the splattering that occured when I used the poscas on some rougher surface like the tote bag I was doing some touch up work on. I think the soft brush tip would eliminate the splattering issues? Also wow, I love the pop art style paint tubes! That’s a style I like but haven’t really tried to do!

I just started getting into acrylic markers and so far have been using Posco, Lightwish, and Karin Deco markers. Soooo curious to try these!!!

Hi Sketches - I’m not really a marker user. Occasionally, I will use a white acrylic marker for highlights in a watercolor painting but that’s really about it. I have used some Posca markers and I didn’t mind pressing down the tip but these markers where you have to use your thumb seem like a bad choice. Thank you for the video. I always love your creativity.

i like the muted colors in the metallic set. I liked your sketch with the bridge. I agree that it could be hard to do an entire piece with only the markers, especially as it seemed they were hard to blend. Could you blend with a damp brush before they dried to soften the edges? I have only used Posca so I don’t have experience with shaking, just with pumping. The pushing the button seems tiring, but maybe having a brush rather than the bullet nibble like posca, should give a more painterly look.

Thanks for the review. I would love to try these markers. 😊 I haven’t used them in my art because I don’t own any markers, just acrylic pens. I used those as accents really. Lately I’ve been channeling my inner Katie Moody (or trying to anyway) by laying down markers first then doing other media on top. I’ve been using watercolor markers for that. I don’t mind the pumping action of acrylic pens.

The colors look so nice together, both in the sets and in your demo mixed media painting. It reminds me of Claude Monet's waterlilies with your use of vibrant colors and the way you layered them. It's just so.... mesmerizing peaceful feeling to me. And as something I'm curious about, is it possible to place the caps on the end of the either set markers?

I'm so sorry that I'm so late to your video and having some kind of play catch up due to normal life events. I do use acrylic markers although I own a couple of cheap brands and then I have a nice selection of Poscas. I like them for detail in certain artwork and in my coloring books that I use just to keep skills sharp when I'm stuck in bed a lot. I would love to have very matte ones something using pencil for detail over them would be easier.

The matte colours are lovely and appear easy to use after getting primed. Have you tried using Winsor & Newton designer gouache over top of the markers & how did it work? I am wondering if it would work since you had problems placing watercolour paint on top it. I suspect acrylic gouache would work but maybe not designer gouache. Do these markers bleed through your page? I haven’t used acrylic markers in my art, only have a couple of Faber Castell Albrect Dürer watercolour markers I use in urban sketching

Thank you so much for watching Anita! Thick gouache is fine but watered down is resisted similarly to the watercolour.
