Copic Ciao, Alcohol-based markers, 72 color Set A

Daughter loves these, will definitely buy again.

The markers seem to be fine, but I must take issue with the damaged plastic case. When I opened the outside box, I noticed there was no bubble wrap or stuffed paper protecting the plastic case. The case was cracked and splintered. Well, no wonder! I’ve read other reviews with same problem. Why doesn’t Copic fix the problem? The case serves as a display for keeping the markers in line. I paid good money for these markers and a display case is of importance. I’m probably going to now end up putting the colors in a shoebox. Not right.

Fantastic markers, my favorite to own. Downside it took FOREVER (months) to get them and a few dried out fast or didnt have enough ink. I ended up making my own color chart because they look different on paper and added small labels to the top of the markers for easy finding. My case also came with a unattractive scratch Mark on top of the case.

Product arrived relatively soon! Great deal on some copics

I love these! I purchased the Ciao set by mistake, and Im a newbie, so it took me a couple of days to get used to the broader point. Now I like Ciao so well that I bought the same thing when I ordered Set B. The colors are beautiful, and I love the color coding that makes it really easy to match and blend. A bit of an investment, but the joy Copic has given me since my purchase is well worth every penny!

bought these for my 13 year old daughter for Christmas, and she is enjoying them. However, they do seem to just be regular ol markers to me, except with a very high price tag. The bonus, I guess, is that they come in a vast array of colors and they are refillable. Im comparing this to something like, say, Prismacolor pencils, which are definitely worth the extra price and will definitely make a difference in what you can do with your art. But, a few of her friends also got Copics for Christmas, and they started a little anime club where they get together and draw stuff, so looking at it that way, worth the money.

Ive used cheaper markers for a couple years now and was really curious to see if the famous brush tip really made that much difference. There is a bit of a learning curve to markers in general and I recommend for beginners to get something like a set of ohuhu or something to be able to learn with before investing in these but I am thrilled with the professional results obtainable by these markers and the package even arrived early!!

I like the soft point.

Every artist must have. Was scared at first because of the price. But they where perfect

These markers are the best on the market for any artist - the color range is phenomenal as well as the blending capabilities. Yeah, theyre pricey, but worth it in the long run. They have a 3 year shelf life, are refillable AND you can replace the brush or nib ends so basically they last forever.
