Review on Arteza Inkonic Fineliners Set of 72: Fine Tip Markers with Color Numbers, 0.4mm Tips & Brilliant Assorted Colors by Carla Anderson

I read many reviews as well as the original product description before buying. I expected all markers to work smoothly with beautiful, vibrant and long-lasting inks. PROS: I like the metal storage case that comes with the markers. Inside are 3 trays stacked on top of each other. The choice of 72 colors is quite nice and the colors are vibrant. I like the triangular shape of the markers. You won't roll off the table. Some markers write fluently and with good ink consumption. CONS: No color chart. You can see I wrote numbers on each mark. I then created a matching color chart. I started coloring the image (shown here) using just these markers. (It is not finished yet) Many markers have dried up after a short use. Some marks pulled up the paper. Some markers require some force to squeeze out some ink. I couldn't use a few markers because they were dry. (Note: I didn't color with all the markers in this set) Also: the pens don't cover the color evenly. If you zoom in, instead of a smooth color, you can see the effect of scribbles. In general, I like bright colors. I want all markers to work, be full of ink, and run smoothly and effortlessly. This purchase was not what I expected.
