30 Acrylic markers

So first off: Great Pens! A lot of fun and easy to use! But I'm not here to sell you these pens, instead if you are interested in buying these extra-fine tip paint pens like I was, you may be wondering 'what set should I get?' Well, let me help! I will go over which extra-fine tip sets have which colors and their overlaps, as well as the odd choice Artistro has made in naming the same color twice for two different sets (maybe their hoping you'll buy the same product twice?). Firstly, if you want all the colors (not including the extra metallic colors from the metallic set, and the glitter colors from the glitter set) then all you will need is the 42 box set! It's generally priced around a little more than a dollar a pen, which is a pretty good deal. I have shared a picture of the colors listed on the box for your reference as well as a picture of all the pens lined up in the same order. Next, you may notice the third picture I've shared is also pen colors from the side of a box; it is the 30 box set. Strangely enough these would appear to be very different colors! Oh, but not so! Almost every single "additional" color here is just renamed (I happen to like the majority of these names better, by the way) without an actual new addition to be found. (Also I'm not sure if the print settings were off when the packaging was produced, but their color swatches are very different.) So below is a list of the 30 colors from the 30 box set and their corresponding twin from the 42 box set: 30 box set 42 box set 1. Chartreuse = Bud Green 2. Spring Lemon = Yellow 3. Sunburst Yellow = Orange Yellow 4. Coral Orange = Orange 5. Scarlet Red = Red 6. Wine Red = Purple Red 7. Pale Pink = Sakura Pink 8. Pastel Violet = Light Purple 9. Light Violet = Purple 10. Violet = Dark Purple 11. Indian Blue = Blue 12. Sky Blue = Sky Blue 13. Light Turquoise = Shallow Green 14. Spruce Green = Dark Green 15. Walnut = Brown 16. Putty = Tan 17. Light Cream = Cream Yellow 18. Pale Yellow = Khaki 19. Gold = Gold 20. Cool Gray = Cold Grey 21. Warm Grey = Dark Grey 22. Silver = Silver 23. White = White 24. Black = Black 25. Turquoise = Jewel Green 26. Emerald Green = Green 27. Vivid pink = Pink 28. Baby Blue = Brilliant Blue 29. Extra White = Extra White 30. Extra Black = Extra Black So, if you are curious to know which other colors are actually in the 42 box set, but maybe don't want to do the work of searching and cross-checking the two pictures I provided, I will list them here: 31. Fluorescent Yellow (yup, that's what it is) 32. Emerald Green (it's brighter than the "Emerald" Green from the 30) 33. Melanie (it's a greenish blue-green color despite being named weird) 34. Sapphire (a little brighter than Sky Blue) 35. Purple Stars (blue-violet) 36. Pigeon Blue (a dark grey blue) 37. Tawny (a mix of orange and tan) 38. Camellia Red (a bright red, almost pink) 39. Dream Purple (a little warmer and darker than Light Purple) 40. Bright Pink (more natural in tone than Pink's neon look) 41. Run Red (it's a light orange cream color) 42. Pale Pinkish Grey (terrible name; it's very similar to Run Red, a little less bright) So, if you got the 30 box set and you decided you wanted the colors you are missing out on from the 42 box set, is there a way to get them without buying duplicates of all your 30 colors? Yes! Almost. Minus one: Fluorescent Yellow. The 15 box set called "Special Colors" here on Amazon, but labeled "Trending Colors" on its package actually has all your remaining colors needed sans that super bright yellow. You'll also get repeats of Chartreuse and Sunburst Yellow, as well as the ever-present White and Black. So not a bad buy if you just want to expand from your 30 box set. But maybe you're like, 'I just want some basic colors, why have you been wasting my time with all these fancy color names?' Well, you probably should just get the 12 box set then. It's very basic. It has Black, White, Gold, Silver, Pink, Dark Purple, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, Red, and Brown. Have fun!

I really liked these pens on my first impression of them. They have a very nice color selection in the box and the box itself is rather good quality and is easy for storage. The pens were very easy(and quick) to activate and the color flows from them very smoothly. I like these more than Posca pens for both the price and ease of use for a beginner. I wish there were more shades of greens and blues rather than so many shades of white. Overall the product is great to use easy for anyone and I'd definitely get it as a gift for artists both old and young. Some colors will need more than one application but that's to be expected!

First of all, the packaging is adorable! I've never had a set of paint pens that come in such a sturdy container. The clasp and handle seem like they will hold up over time as well. I like these pens over the other brands I've purchased recently as these require less shaking and time depressing the tip for each use compared to the others. Extra tips are included. I think it's a good mix of colours; I've uploaded a photo of each number of the pen written in its colour. The colours don't have names, each pen just has a number on it. I couldn't find white paper, so some of the white and yellow shades are a bit hard to see. These pens have a really good pigmentation - if it doesn't seem like it, shake and depress again. It's just the way paint pens are. Very happy that the tip truly is a fine point! I've been let down a lot by claims of fine points that really more of a medium. Overall, very happy with this set of paint pens, and I'll be letting my other artist friends know about this set as well.

When the package arrived, it was different than pictured so I wasn't sure about the pens. But I decided to give them a try. They are great! I love the colors, and the coverage is nice. I use them in coloring books for embellishments or base layers. I would purchase again.

When I received the package, the envelope it was mailed in was damaged, so I was a little worried. Fortunately other than a little dent in the box, there was no damage to the product. These markers were easy to prime, and work beautifully. Did not have any markers that wouldn't work. My 11 year old had fun using them on paper to make pretty words, and I tested them on a scrap block of wood to see how they would do for making wooden ornaments. I have zero complaints. They went down smoothly, I was able to let the first layer dry and add a second layer to make the color brighter. The only complaints I have are the choices of color names - some of them are really off to me - such as the coral pink, and I was left wanting an actual brown color - a true brown that was darker. But I can make due with what's in the set, since you get so many other colors, including neon (my kids love to use) and metallics - which will add great detail on Christmas ornaments.

Jag använder den här typen av pennor mest för highlights. Använde tidigare Posca som ska vara bäst, men jag tycker att den vita färgen här täcker bättre än Posca och har en bättre spets. Bättre kontroll. Har rekommenderat den på sidor för tecknare

They work well

Pennarelli veramente ottimi e ben fatti. Lasciano una posa perfetta e uniforma sulla carta o su altri materiali. Li abbiamo usati sulla plastica, vetro, jeans, cartone, legno. Ogni volta abbiamo ottenuto sempre dei colori vivaci e brillanti. La marca anche se sconosciuta replica perfettamnte il prodotto più blasonato in commercio ma dal costo esorbitante. In poche parole è inutile comprare pennarelli UNIPOS..A, costano parecchio e su Amazon si trova lo stesso prodotto, di marca diveresa, a prezzi decisamente molto più abbordabili e dalla resa fantastica.

Merci bcp. Belle de ouverte.

Metto 5 stelle perché il rapporto qualità/prezzo è veramente buono. Tra l'altro ho fatto l'acquisto durante degli sconti, pagando per 30 pennarelli 24 €. C'è una vasta gamma di colori e sono quasi tutti perfetti, belle tonalità, coprenti e si asciugano velocemente. Il mio "quasi tutti perfetti " é dovuto all'unico colore con cui ho avuto qualche problemino, cioè il bianco, che non è risultato particolarmente coprente, ma devo anche dire che un problema simile si è presentato anche con il bianco a punta fine della marca ben più nota, e che costa molto molto di più. Conclusione: i colori sono buoni e personalmente trovo che meritino le 5 stelle
