Review on Tombow Dual Brush Pen Art Markers, Soda Shop Theme, 6-Pack by Hannah Curi

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Zen anglers are probably not for you.

My two star rating has to come with a disclaimer. These are good markers. They just aren't the right markers for me. First, the colors are very transparent. That means I was expecting less translucent. The colors in this set make it impossible to mix them together, so with more choices I can feel different. Unfortunately, I bought this set to try and didn't want to invest more. I've found these markers to be very good for coloring small spaces. They have the striped look of cheap go-anywhere markers that are large enough to allow the ink to dry completely. A quick stain might be a solution, but it's not for me. I have found that the watercolor brush helps blend colors very well. If you need a watercolor pencil, this could be the one for you. My main use for them was Zentangle. For this purpose I would recommend something else. I use pigment micrometers and unfortunately these markers pull out and smudge the pigment ink. Yes, I used something that had dried for over a week. All the tutorial videos I've watched say the ink won't eject. Yes. I'm guessing he might not pull out the marker? But I don't like working with markers because of the smell. I think they might be great for stamps? scrapbooking? A teenager who loves to draw and paint with watercolors? For the price I don't think I would buy more unless they go on sale and I have a very specific use in mind.

Pros
  • Markers and markers
Cons
  • So far so good

Great colors. I love that they can double as highlighters.
