Revainrating 2 out of 5

Description only applies to a limited extent

Yes, there are 60 markers in different colors, but many are difficult to distinguish from one another (see photo of my color chart), and there are not enough "beautiful" color choices. Probably only half will get used to it IF so much! The colors of the markers aren't written on the pens or numbered, so I have to keep them in a strict order so several different "good" shades are even! However, there are 8 shades of brown, 4 shades of brownish orange, 3 shades of beige pink, but only 4 good shades of pink, 3 shades of yellow, but only 1 real yellow, 3 rather dull like used dishwater! 4 reds, almost identical, and NOT a real red. Purple, pink, blue and green are better, but not by much! I'm not happy with the color choice at all. We continue. All markers work. Fine dots are great now but are hardly used so I don't know if they smooth out with use. Nice tight caps, they shouldn't dry out very quickly, but being new I don't know how much ink they're filled with so can't speak to durability. The ink appears to be waterproof, but I didn't spill it, just tried a few drops on the scrap paper. The colors don't mix. I've tried, and in most cases they just turned into dirt, so I'll probably use separate colors, which will make the work flat and one-dimensional. (See photos) Still therapeutic if not easy on the eyes results. The colors don't bleed through if I let each color dry before painting over the adjacent area, but the ink LEAKS through the page, so I put a page or two of scrap paper between the pages to protect the next design. I am very disappointed and will not buy it again. Here's what I get when I try to save a few bucks. NOT inexpensive, not good value for money.

Pros
  • Quality version
Cons
  • Requires base
