Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

A very good set for the price. I am a hobby artist and a beginner. So I didn’t want to spend too much on the high priced copic markers, but needed an equivalent of it. I do recommend this set for people like me. But beware that with less price, you would need to make some compromises (which I explain below), but definitely has room to fix it or have a work around (also mentioned below). I bought the 100 color set i.e., 99 colors + 1 colorless blender. Attaching pictures. Pic 1, 2 & 3: It’s the picture of the complete set. 99 colors + 1 colorless mixer. From top row - greens, blues, yellows, reds and the greys. The pens have a square barrel and hence it is easy to hold. The numbering on the caps are visible and indicates if it belongs to the set of greens (number starts with G), cool/warm/blue/green greys (CG/WG/BG/GG), reds (R) etc. Numbers are on the barrel and the caps on both ends. Numbers on a very few caps started to fade off. Pic 4: Swatches. A very good range of colors. They match very well with the colors on the cap. Pic 5: This is where I was a bit disappointed on. The case containing the pens is very thin, hence it doesn’t hold up the weight of pens. When the zipper is open and the top flap is flipped back, all the pens leans/falls over to the side making it difficult to see the color numbers on the cap (shape of the case is intact when the zipper is closed though). I fixed it by cutting a few pieces off of the Amazon cardboard box it was delivered in. I put one piece at the bottom and one piece each in the front and back. Now it holds everything up properly. That’s the next picture. Pic 6 & 7: With a bit reinforcement with cardboard pieces inside the pouch, all the pens stand upright. Pic 8: The fine tip side is black and broad/chisel tip side is white. So, with the caps on, a white and black strip is visible indicating broad and fine tip sides respectively. Pic 9: It shows how the color on the cap is visible from all sides. Pic 10: No noticeable bleeding with micron pens. My white gel pen was pretty visible on the darker shades. Pic 11: My attempt with marker coloring. When colors are added, it made definite streaks rather than blending with previous layer; I cud resolve it by giving another layer of the base color over the added color.
