Questions & Answers
A blender was included in my marker set.
On you, I like to use these. Manga paper is available from Art Supply Company. It's the best I've found so far for that perfect smooth slick, virtually bleed-proof surface. Making art with these Bianyo alcohol-based markers on the U.S. market is a lot of fun. Manga paper is available from the art supply company. On polypropylene paper and smooth gesso board or yupo, I've used these markers as well. Put them to the test on the United States. Yupo is an expensive art supply, so start with that.
Since September 2017, we've added a blender and the color name to the cap of Bianyo Alcohol Based Dual Tip Art Markers. So YES!
I find that these are more saturated than copics, but they blend out well and are easy to work with as long as the saturation is taken into account. They're very similar to copics, but they're a little different in terms of handling. I like them because of the low price, but I wish there were more colors to choose from.
Selected User Reviews For Bianyo Classic Series Alcohol-Based Dual Tip Art Markers (Set of 72, Black Travel Case with a Designable Card)
I'm a huge fan of these. I've used Prismacolors before, but never Copics. These are even better than the Prismacolors in my opinion. I used the Bianyo markers to create the attached drawing, which was inspired by a Joanna Baker fashion illustration. I really wish the skin tone was lighter. For the base for the skin, I used an eggshell color from another set (Hobby Colours) and the Warm grey 0. To do very light shading under the chin, use number 5 in this set. The blues on the scarf are an excellent example of how well these alcohol markers blend together. For me, the price point is the deciding factor in how frequently I use these and how much I practice with them. I'm not going to spend money on Copic markers until I'm more comfortable with art markers. I was very pleased with my first attempt with these, and I look forward to using them again without being limited by cost, as the color selection is excellent.
based markers for those who don't want to pay $8 for a Copic marker These markers have professional use because I won an art show award with them (in a school with over 2,000 students). The only thing I'd like from this brand is the ability to use a brush tip, but I'm used to using the chisel and the blender to get rid of streaks, and I've never used brush tips before, so I'm not unable to make-do. Using the chisel is the best way to go. Most artists, especially those on a budget or who don't think Copics are necessary or worth the money, would benefit greatly from these. 9/10 purchase very satisfied I have had no problems, and the carrying case is great, very transportable and not bulky, as they all fit perfectly and zip in, unlike, say, the Prismacolor 150 Set, which still only comes in a cardboard box with plastic trays. So, these are fantastic, and even calligraphers can benefit from the smaller bullet tip and chisel. Please give them a shot! They were brought in to try out in my art class, and they were a hit with the students.
Pros;
- a wide range of colorsbr>- Chisel of good quality a few bullet point suggestionsbr>- Very cost-effectivebr>- There are no defects to be found (after opening and sampling each marker)br>- The documentation was excellent, including a factory color guide and a matching swatch that you could fill yourself. CONS; BEAUTIFULbr>br>EXTREMELY BEAUTIFULbr>br>EXTREMELY BEAUTIF
- There are no brush tips, but the overwhelming value makes this a minor flaw.
- I wish the bag had even the most basic deviders to assist me in keeping them organized as I'd like, but for the price, I can find other options. br>br>If any issues with durability or usability arise, I will update this review, but for now, I believe this was an excellent purchase.
Yes, they bleed through the paper like any other marker, but they're a great substitute for copics and other similar markers. They aren't streaky and don't interfere with black markers. If you're slow, you'll only get streaky. br>They blend well (before drying) and dry quickly (ish), so be quick if you want to blend. br>br>I received two of the same dark sepia colored marker (99). That's fine, but I would have preferred a duplicate of uhh. Perhaps it's a difference in skin tone. br>br>For the hair in this drawing, I used 104 as a base, and it turned out beautifully. Colored pencils are a great way to finish. br>br>Swatches on strathmore 400 series sketch paper, which isn't ideal, but the color didn't bleed through and stick to the other page. On their toned tan paper, they drew. Again, this isn't ideal paper, but it won't bleed through to the next page.
Pros
- They are cost-effective. br>- They work on a technical levelbr>- They come with a bag to transport them in. br>- They come with both a regular and a chisel tipbr>br>Consbr>- Blending is a complete waste of time. br>- The markers' actual colors are ten times darker and more saturated than the color on the capbr>- They bleed so much that you won't be able to use them for any type of precise coloring. br>- A BRUSH TIP IS NOT INCLUDED WITH THEM. It's just a regular marker tip like you'd find on a crayolabr>br>Just don't buy these unless you're buying them as a Christmas present for your 10-year-old child who won't know the difference. Hobbyists and (heaven forbid) professionals should avoid this area. These markers are absolutely terrible, regardless of how many 5-star reviews they have.
The dual tip ends work well on a variety of papers (sketch, printer), but I recommend getting some good marker paper to really see what these colors can do! Highlights include: br>br>
.
1. The colors are vibrant, true to life, and appear to blend seamlessly.
2. I like these because I didn't expect such high quality from such an affordable product; I don't want to spend a lot of money on markers that I might have to share with the kids, but I also don't want to buy low-quality markers for my work. Having said that, this set met both requirements! br>br>I'll be back in the future to see if there are any new items. Bianyo, keep up the good work!.
I don't think I can say enough good things about these markers. The carrying case is excellent and extremely practical. The visual impact of the color is incredible. Although the blendability could be improved, I'm satisfied with it. I wish the colors were more accurate to the caps so I could tell what I'd be getting. I'd like to see more skin tone markers as well. My blender also dried out quickly, which is my final gripe. I'm not sure if this is a common problem with this brand's blenders or not because all of my other markers work fine. br>br>These are good markers if you want to try Copics but don't want to spend the money. If you decide to buy Copics in the future, you can get a lot of practice with these. br>br>I've included a small doodle that I colored to show how some of the colors appear.
