Review on πŸ–ŠοΈ Copic Markers MLSP10A SP Multiliner Set A: High-Quality Pens for Precision Drawing by Kelsey Brown

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent Set for Drawing Manga

I would like to start by saying that I am a beginner in manga artist. I regularly copy color and black and white manga pages for practice, and also create my own original work. This is a review of the Copic Multiliner Set B-2 (with brushes), not to be confused with the similar but reusable Multiliner SP, also from Copic. Micrometers are much more easily detected by alcohol markers. Considering it's made by Copic, I expected the same. I should also note that erasers don't erase them as much as microns. So if deleting is part of your process, I would look at them. The variety in this set is perfect for drawing very thin lines. bold (for panels) and even has a brush that's perfect for some Japanese SFX fonts (I use a combination of these and high-yield brush pens from well-known brands to create my SFX). The only thing I would have to do, shall we say, but this goes for all these types of pens, is to be careful with the angle and the pressure you use with them, especially the very thin ones (less than 0, 3). I accidentally bent the tip 0.03 when using it at a 45 degree angle for a long time by applying pressure to the edge of the tiny tip. Now it's very finicky, only drawing at certain angles and also spreading out a lot more - not ideal for a super-fine pen in a clean job like drawing comics. But I'm just an idiot and your usual caution will be enough to prevent such a situation. Overall I am completely satisfied with this set. I will buy the thinner ones as soon as they run out as I am sure they will run out first. Examples of other brush pens to compare ink usage) EDIT 2 (11/11/2018): I've been on a long hiatus from art in general (haven't touched this set in at least 6 months). I decided to update as they sit who is interested. They work fine. Nothing out of the ordinary and all retained their usual characteristics. Ink flow is still good and goes well with Copics. Can't recommend her enough!
