Paint Markers, 3M Fine Point Acrylic Paint Pens with Reversible Tips, Art Supplies For Gifts, Decorations Fabric, Metal, Glass, Wood and Canvas, Set of 15

I use a lot of makers in my artwork. After trying them all these are the only ones I will buy now. Unlike other acrylic markers the colors are consistent they always work if stored properly (horizontally). These are the only ones I will buy. The extra you pay is worth it.

Once you get them prepped to start these are very nice! Smooth drawing! They are consistent in their flow of color, and line. The line stays 3M, there's no splotching parts, and they don't dry out if the cap is put on correctly. I am very happy with these! The colors are great, they are bright opaque, and colorful, no dullness at all. They dry quickly so I can keep working without waiting long, and no messing my drawing by accident. The tips do not bend or flatten out over time with use. I like them so much I use them as pens for writing too.

So I gave in and decided to try acrylic paint pens because I couldn't locate the huge plastic tub of brand new, never opened bottles of acrylic paint. The tub is somewhere in my craft studio, and that place is like a snake pit - I can't find anything! ANYway, I ordered three different sets of Posca Paint Pens - the 0.7 mm extra-fine pen tips and the 1.8/2.5mm medium bullet tip pens., as well as the black and white variety pack (sizes range from 0.7 to 8mm chisel tip to 15mm big mama jama). Takes a bit to get all the wrappers off. Then you need to 'burp' the tip (hold the pen with the tip pointing up, and with your thumb, press down to get rid of the air that's settled between the inner paint skin and the new felt/plastic tip inside where you can't see it). While burping is fun, this is tedious. And can leave you with bruised thumb tips. Yeah. It's a thing. Once they've been burped, the real non-fun part begins: you gotta prime them. You can shake, shake, shake senora, shake it all around, but you should have a piece of notebook paper or old foam core (I used foam core) so that once you've shaken the snot out of them, you can press down on the paper a few dozen times to coax the paint into the tip. Warning: you can and will poke through the foam core board with the fine tip pens, so be sure you're doing this on a surface that you don't care about - otherwise, it'll end up looking like it has the measles once you're done. You've probably read other reviews that say on certain pens you can pull the tips out and turn them around if they become frayed. I saw the same reviews. And I remember thinking, oh great - I'm gonna spend this kind of money on paint pens that aren't gonna last very long at all before I gotta swap the tips, and then have to get more pens sooner than later. Well, lemme tell ya, I've had these for over 2 months, with daily heavy use, and I've only got one tip that I should probably flip but haven't because I can still use it for larger coverage areas. So, don't freak out. They'll last a good long while. One bit of advice I learned was, don't push the pens away from you when drawing/filling/lining with them. The pens want to flow, and they will if you remember to pull them towards you, and pull them gently. Sure, rocks (in my case) have uneven surfaces and textures, but taking it a bit slower when it comes to outlining with a fine tip pen, you'll discover your pen doesn't skip or leave little eyelash-length splats or flecks. Another pointer is, if you're lettering with these pens and you make a mistake/paint blobs out, if you keep a few clean Q-tips/cotton swabs nearby, you can pop one into your mouth to get it a little moist, and swipe away the problem. The very cool thing about Posca Paint Pens is that, once they dry (and they dry very fast! bonus!) you can go right in with another color and have that color show up bright and clear. The pigment is thick and unless you're trying to make white stripes on a solid dark background, one coat will suffice. You *can* blend with the Poscas. Not very well, because they dry so fast. BUT! You CAN put enough paint down by allowing it to puddle/pool a bit with your first color, then come in with the second/lighter shade and swirl/blend to your desired shade. Don't worry if you get color on your pen tip. It'll come right off after a few squigglies on a scrap piece of paper. Do some curly-cues and once the other paint is visually off the tip, press down to get the pen's paint color to come back to the surface. Voila! Read around on other reviews to see how to get dried Posca Paint Pen residue off your clothes. It will come off finished furniture with a little elbow grease and WD-40; unfinished furniture, not so much. This stuff soaks right in and it's impossible to get out - so you might as well just paint the whole tabletop since you've already got your paint out! Hope this was helpful. The Poscas are expensive, but you're getting a high quality product. The writing on the pen's labels is minuscule and in Japanese, and while you're thinking hey, I can keep these in their cute little crayon type upright box, nah forget that noise. Just dump'em in a small plastic container, throw in a few Q-tips and maybe what's left of an old notebook you've had lying around, and then tote the whole thing to your favorite chair, break out the (clean) rocks and start painting!

I absolutely love these Posca paint markers! The colors are rich and vibrant and cover various surfaces beautifully. I use them to draw, fill in details, and, most importantly, to sign all my artwork. One of the best features is that the ink holds up perfectly under resin — no smudging or bleeding- a huge plus for my mixed-media pieces. Just a heads-up: when you 1st pump the markers to get the ink flowing, be careful — sometimes too much ink can come out if you're not gentle. However, they're a dream to work with once you get the hang of it. Highly recommend these for any artist or crafter looking for reliable, high-quality paint pens!

Great quality. Super easy to use. Vibrant color. Essential for crafting !

Hello everyone! My name is Aspen, @Paraslider on Twitter, I'm an artist and animator entering college this year, and I'd like to say I've been using these for 2 years now and they still work fine to this day. Some problems arose with the paint itself, which I'll get into later. For now, I'll start off with a brief introduction to how these pens work. Posca pens are notable for their usage in graffiti and street art, so the pen nibs are pretty much made to go through the wringer. As long as the surface you're going on isn't *too* toothy, like a broken brick or something, you can expect the nib to last a while. That being said; if you plan to use these on any kind of paper, expect the paper to pill. Pilling is the result of the pen nib being so abrasive on the paper's surface that it rips up the paper's surface/tooth. It won't destroy the paper by any means if it's watercolor paper or heavier weight paper, but printer paper is never ideal for these. The way you activate these is fairly simple-- you just press the nib down on a surface a bunch until the paint fills the nib, alternating between shaking the pen (cap on, of course) and pumping the nib like crazy until you get a nice, clean, consistent stroke. Let it be known, though, you will be shaking these pens a lot. I don't want to understate this in the slightest. You will spend a lot of time shaking these pens. If your batch is particularly fussy, hours even. When I tell you I've spent upwards of an hour or two just shaking and pumping my pens for the second piece of art in particular, please believe me there. Once that's done, you should be smoothly sailing. If not, I can only refer you to Kasey Golden's posca pen videos on YouTube for troubleshooting and tips. For clarity, I'll describe the processes behind each of these art pieces, as the size you're working on and the surface material matters greatly. 1- The first painting (the side profile of my OC, grey background) is something I was able to do with just this 15 pen set, and it was my first go with these, done around late 2018. Watercolor paper, 7x7 inch size if I remember correctly, and yes, the paper pilled here and there. It wasn't at all a distraction or a major flaw of the markers, and it turned out perfectly fine. It sort of feels like eraser shavings, and if you like the texture the pilling produces, feel free to keep it! if not, it's really easy to wipe off after the paint dries. As can be seen, with just the base 15 markers, a lot can be done. If you're looking for a challenge and can work in a limited color palette, this set can take you far. The colors dry opaque and are super vibrant as expected. The coverage, especially for 3M size, is really nice and it dries down smooth and matte, no streaks abound. Poscas are renowned for their ability to create flat, sleek color blocks, so if that's your thing, you'll love these. 2- This next piece (pattern background, 4 characters) was a lot larger than the first one, and was done on a 16x20 inch canvas and it was completed around a month or two ago. It's clear that I expanded the color count here, and you can totally buy different colors of posca pens on amazon for relatively cheap if you get them in packs. Individual pens, however, tend to be a lot pricier and more of a hassle to get, like 6-10 bucks a pop. Unlike the paper, there was no pilling at all on a canvas surface and was overall a much smoother experience. It took a bit of getting used to the canvas's surface, but it was a really fun project regardless. Aside from all the troubleshooting I had to do. You see, herein lies my major point of contention with these paint pens, but I'm sure this isn't just limited to posca, but all paint pens in general. I was painting this on an angle, and the canvas was stationed on an easel. Because of gravity, you can expect some of your pens to go rogue on you. They may appear to dry out or get streaky, but this is just due to the orientation of your canvas. This can typically be fixed by pumping the nib and shaking, but I will admit even after a while of this, some pens just don't want to cooperate. Some might stay watery, and others might stay streaky, and some might just die on you, and that's when I suggest a replacement. For instance, the navy blue and regular blue colors here were really temperamental, but after some deep, mindful, therapeutic thoughts such as "goddamnit, please let me finish this before these die on me" I was able to power through. Don't give up on your pens because they're showing signs of wear, because there's a chance they might still work/can be revived. TL:DR; These pens are spectacular for any artist of any skill level, but they aren't perfect and have some flaws. The orientation of the pen and your canvas affects the flow of the paint. In general, you won't see these problems with a majority of your pens, but every once in a while this may occur to a few in your batch. These are lovely for color laydown and produce consistent vibrant hues. They are definitely an investment though, so consider how you intend to use them and if it's worth the cost. These will make a lovely gift for any artist or creative!

Bought the fine point Posca 15 set. Quick delivery with my order. Pens all work fine. Will order more. Price. is reasonable

Great acrylic markers for a great price! Dries quickly, rich colors. Would certainly buy again.

In my opinion Posca markers are the best on the market. Beautiful colours available. I discovered I had a few Posca markers tucked away for several years... they were just like new. Easy flow. Wonderful on fabrics.

Chegou rápido. Minha neta gostou muito. Recomendo.
