Review on 🎨 Enhance Your Artistic Skills with Copic Set: 72-Color Sketch Marker Count! by Dawn Fischer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Maintain them (don't clog them!)

These are very good markers and they stick well to the right type of paper (I recommend the Bee Paper Bleedproof Marker Pack, 8-1/2" x 11" ", 50 sheets per pack). However, the pair of markers felt oversaturated, with ink actually dripping off the tip of the brush. I've found that the marks that did this clogged up, which can happen from too much heat or pressure, or if they fall off the table. To fix this you need to remove both caps which will release the internal pressure. Now the hardest part: removing the brush. It's not usually recommended to do this as you risk damaging the brush nib, so it's a good idea to buy some spare nibs first. Remove any ink residue that you see. You might want to try adding more ink to make up for what you've lost, but I'd rather wait for the marker to dry. You don't want to risk overfilling and clogging the marker you just erased! After that, make sure you don't drop, shake or overheat them. All in all great markers, refillable, replaceable tips, really one of the best. Now I know it might seem boring, but if you're careful it should be a rare job.

Pros
