Caliart Alcohol Brush Markers, 51 Colors Dual Tip Artist Brush & Chisel Tip Sketch Art Markers, Aesthetic Cute Preppy Stuff School Supplies, Pens for Lettering Cards Drawing Mothers Day Gift for Mom

I'm very happy with these markers! They're nice and vibrant and easy to color with. If I had one complaint it's that there are not enough shades of orange to suit me. But there are plenty shades of all the other colors. They are an excellent value for the price in my opinion. I will buy these again someday whenever they dry out, because they are a joy to color with. If you're on the fence about whether or not to try them, please do. You will like them 😃👍

I color with alcohol markers every day, and Caliart have become my favorites. I love the Ohuhu brand, but they’re not very affordable. Caliart markers are super similar and have the same feel and color vibrancy. I like the variation of colors and that you can refill them with rubbing alcohol once they begin to dry. The dual-sided brush tip is perfect for this, and it’s so satisfying to color with brush tip markers.

My credentials: I have none. I don’t have a big history with marker use. I’ve only used these, Tombows and Shuttle Art. I’m not an art expert, just another person who got influenced by social media.Pros: I like the feel and look of the markers. They are pretty to look at and I’m pleased with the color options (I know some people have complained about not enough pastels but I tend to lean more toward Earth and Jewel tones so I don’t care as much). There were some that were more dried out than others, but all were very usable and nowhere close to “dried out”. The inconsistency in ink flow may have been due to their position in the factory or in transit if the ink pooled in certain areas of the markers. I also have no issues with leaking, brushes popping out or damage like others have said. They do what they’re advertised to do as far as I can tell, though I can’t speak on durability or how long they last because I haven’t used them for anything except a swatch so far. They don’t bleed as much as I expected, and I don’t care about the bleeding anyway because that’s what alcohol markers do. I’ll just use cardstock under my projects. They don’t leave any lines or come out unevenly for the most part, and I feel that the occasional time they do (mostly on the chisel tip) it’s mainly user error.Cons: As for product quality, I’m disappointed in a couple things. Firstly, the tips seem not the same length, especially on the brush tip, as if some are not completely interested into the marker all the way or were cut longer (I attached a picture). This may be a common thing and petty complaint, I'm not sure because like I said, I’m not very experienced in markers, but it makes the experience using them inconsistent, like I have to get used to each marker separately. Also, the case they come in works fine, but that’s as far as it goes. All the markers fit, but there’s no organizers included to sort them, and as far as I know, you’re supposed to store markers like these on their side, but trying to do so with this case is almost impossible (at least during active use) because they fall out. Moving on to technical issues, a big part of why I chose these were because of the names on the markers as shown in the picture. When I got mine, the names were not printed onto the markers, just the serial number. I’m not SUPER mad about this because I’ll just make up my own names that make more sense to my brain. On that note, I tried to be forgiving about colors being true to the swatch and lid colors but there’s some obvious mistakes that I don’t understand. Some examples: R503 is “pastel” but R502 is “medium” pink (in the swatch I posted it seems like they should be switched), Also, on the online swatch, R903 is titled “light orange” but is listed as what I’m assuming as a variant of Red/ red undertones based on the serial number, and comes out light purple. Also there were many typos, such as colors being inconsistent between the markers, online swatch, and picture of the markers shown (I believe NG07 is labeled NG09 on the swatch, there are two Y710s in the swatch when one should be Y701, Y962 is labeled as Y960 on the swatch, B118 is labeled B811 and so on). Also many spelling typos and inconsistent names, such as the two different names listed for Y025 on each picture, “bule” instead of “blue” and “salmon” being called “salmo”. Between all of these errors, I think many people (rightfully so) are upset because they think they received the wrong colors or are missing colors, but according to my swatch and my verification, nothing (at least in my package) is missing, but it’s hard to tell due to all the error labels.TL/DR: the markers themselves work fine overall and are worth it for me because of the smoothness and color options, but the technical/ advertising errors are creating a lot of confusion and disappointment, and make the overall creation of the product seem careless. If there was a bit more effort to verify the details and advertise properly, I feel like many people would be more pleased.

Arrived in good condition. The markers feel very sleek and are comfortable to hold. The tips looks great on all of them. Not a single one had a issue of being dried out. The caps can be misleading for what the color actually comes out as which is why I do color charts like these so I know how the colors will looks while coloring. They seem to be great quality and I would recommend! No bleeding issues and grate color!

These CaliArt markers are amazing! Both the broad and fine tips work perfectly. The brilliance of the ink make my artwork way more colorful. The smell of the markers are not overpowering. I would highly reccomend these markers either to yourself or to a friend as a gift!

This is not my first set of alcohol markers and every set I have received there was a swatch sheet with them and usually some information and a plastic sheet for putting between pages. This set had nothing in the bag but markers. Not sure if this was a returned item. Only issue I have other than no swatch sheet is that marker Y960 was replaced with Y962.

Really happy with them!! The colors are vibrant and blending is great. I went with the 121 set and it came with a blender as well. 👍🏽 The brush tip is nice also!

I have the ohuhu markers which I love. I ended up trying these out because the other ones are always out of stock. These blend superrrrr nicely but giving 3/5 only because they’re not labeled with names, a lot of the colors don’t match the lids / are similar to one another, and one came completely colorless / dried out haha I will say they are less alcoholy though than ohuhu which can be nice depending on what you need them for. I had used to some ohuhus on the winter pic. Last pic (frog) is all ohuhu brand just for reference.
