Review on Arteza Real Brush Pens: 96 Professional Watercolor Paint Markers for Painting, Drawing, and Coloring - Non-Toxic with Flexible Brush Tips by Doris Tran

Revainrating 3 out of 5

You get what you pay for, like

So I paid $66 for it and saw the reviews both positive and negative. I knew it was nylon bristles that broke, but I mean about 20 of my bristles just fell out all over the place. Another 20 or so (some of which overlapped) weren't fully covered and we dried up quickly. As for the markers I was able to fully use, they blend well with water and the water brush in my pack was pretty standard. (I have both the ones that just came in the material and the ones I bought). They work well together on watercolor paper, but I sampled on mixed media paper and it soaked up the ink fairly quickly. a cheap or old brush, but felt like I had to really scrub to get an even, smooth color out of them. They're definitely not planner friendly, they soaked right through my Scribbles That Matter magazine. I usually get by with a small amount of watercolor paint and I've used them as sparingly as possible and they are soaked through. I will use them and I know the price is cheap but for what I got they are hardly worth the price. I would say they are worth the price if they come as is with no bristles dried out and falling out.

Pros
  • Clutter-Free Watercolors: these markers give you precise control so you can easily do everything from light pastel strokes to subtle shadows and gradients. No fuss, mess, mess or worry.
Cons
  • little things
