I was recently made aware of Copic markers and what they can do so I saved and saved up until I had enough for 9 of them. I got three skin tones, three dull browns, a very pale blue, a pale yellow, and a colorless blender. I never thought I'd be much for markers but I love them so! That brush tip is so soft and doesn't make that scratchy or squeaky sound on paper. They lay down like water colors. I wish I had more but maybe Santa will be extra special nice to me this year.
