Shuttle Art101 Colors Dual Tip Alcohol Based Art Markers,100 Colors plus 1 Blender Permanent Marker Pens Highlighters with Case Perfect for Illustration Adult Coloring Sketching and Card Making

I’m an art student and my professor ask me about this product.

Shuttle art has amazing markers

I personally have never colored with Alcohol Markers. However just doing the color chart for the markers and seeing no streaks within layering the same color, is a HUGE win for me. I can't stand when I am coloring and there is overlapping lines.This box has a blender pen as well, which I am excited to use.I will update my review once I have used them color with!

I picked this product over others because of the solid packaging and swatch pages but got the fabric zip bag and no swatches. My own fault for not realizing it’s only in the past picture it shows that it could be either at random and then the actual description basically says it’s the zip up. They do bleed quite a lot but the markers I tested out are vibrant and bright. Definitely worth the value as I finally caved watching tik tok videos and wanted to try out more adult coloring books and techniques. I ended up dumping them out and arranging them while swatching and all of the chisel tips worked well

These markers have been great for an intro to adult coloring books and even using them for other art projects. They are alcohol markers so they do have a strong alcohol smell that quickly dissipates as it dries. The markers come with a fine point tip on one side which can be good for writing and a chisel tip on the other which is excellent for filling large spaces.A few tips for anyone starting out with these:- make a swatch card on a separate piece of paper. I pulled a blank page from a coloring book so it would be a similar paper type. The colors on the markers themselves are not totally accurate, especially after the markers dry so I would highly recommend swatching every color in order and labeling the number so you can see exactly what you have before starting a project.- the markers can spread so the accuracy is not exact and there is a little bit of a learning curve but this can be used to your advantage by filling up the space and leaving a small gap to allow the color to bleed into that area naturally and not into another section. The fine point can help fill in any small gaps- work with intention and work quickly if filling large spaces. Because these are alcohol markets, they will start to dry immediately so in order to achieve a smooth and solid fill, keep your strokes consisent and overlap them slightly to ensure the ink blends together well before it dries. Work in large areas with large strokes, not short ones to avoid streaks.There is also a blending marker included but I haven’t used it myself. You can also paint over previous colors with a different or the same color, however some colors seem to want to lift the previous color and create some pooling or water spot effects that aren’t always desired.Overall I really love this set and am glad I picked it up for coloring books and to also use on mixed media and watercolor paper later on.

Good

I’m disappointed in the packaging. I was expecting to get the new packaging that was pictured. Some of the colors didn’t quite match and I didn’t get a swatch paper. Some of the markers are also smudged. However I will say the tips on either side of the brush are amazing! They bleed very little too!

These are so nice! I haven't colored with them yet except to doodle but ...~ Carrier is great with a handle.~All pens clearly numbered on sides and ends- color on cap true to ink color~ Pens are big! Lots of ink.~ Colors don't streak when layered and dry slow enough you have time to do that~ thin tip thin but steady; wide tip.is beveled like a calligraphy pen so you get thick line or can manipulate the angle it a bit.A child would go Happy Feet over a gift like this. Older kids aren't too different. Very good value and lots to create with.
