Artists Loft Fundamentals Triangle Markers Set 36 Piece

Product Information

These sketch markers performed surprisingly well over the paper. They don’t need you to put an awkward amount of pressure on the tip to get the ink out, and once it’s there, the estimated drying time is pretty low. Shortly after drawing or writing, the ink will remain perfect. Overall, I really like how the Artist's Loft markers performed on marker paper. Some issues with the gray tones but nothing that would stop me from getting this set. Blending on Regular Paper I added some BiC lines to the marker paper just to see how much smearing and bleeding the markers would do. Surprisingly, the markers did really well and didn't smear the BiC lines as much as I thought they would. There are a lot of different brands of markers and choosing the right ones for you will be an individual process. I have several types of markers and they all have their pros and cons. If you are just starting out Bic or Sharpie markers should work out just fine, and are much cheaper than some of the other brands.

The set I’m using for this review is the 6 set of neutral gray Artist’s Loft alcohol based markers. As it’d be the case with most alcohol markers, these also bleed through the paper.
