Spectrum Noir TriBlend Alcohol Markers Coloring Pens - Unique 3-in-1 Blendable Color Shade Effect - 24 Colored Pen Kit (Deep Shades)

Received it in decent time. All colors work. None are dried out. I love these markers. They are ridiculously expensive but I am no good at figuring out what colors blend in well with each other yet.

Love these alcohol markers. Blend well. Have purchased both sets of 24 markers. In the past have purchased more expensive markers but could not see paying for all the colors I wanted. For my purpose these are easier to use as there is no guessing on which colors to use for blending. Price point is great. 24 pens giving you 72 different colors.

I use these every day and I'm still surpised by their quality. They blend perfectly (with a blending brush) and they haven't shown any sign of drying up. I purchased two other boxes in different shades, love them all.

With two nibs, a converter, and 24 cartridges, this pen is an excellent value!! My pen is slightly bent in two places, neither effecting its functioning, but that is from the handling not a reflection on the product. With the pen being shipped, damage could be prevented by shipping it in a small box. Again, an excellent offering and I am certainly going to order another. Any chance you have extra-fine nibs?

I have a good many copic markers but I really love these--they take the guesswork out of blending by having all three colors in one marker.

I received a set of these markers as a gift, after working with them at a craft convention. The TriBlend markers have three shades of a color - light, medium, dark - on one marker. I loved the "Basic Blends" so much, I ordered the "Deep Blends" set this time. These markers make the cards I make look good. I can shade flowers, animals, and other fun designs very easily. Quick instructions: start with the LIGHT color, and then add shadows with the MEDIUM or DARK color, then go over it again with the LIGHT shade to blend the color. They color evenly, so you don't see the direction like you do with crayons or colored pencils. Well worth the money!

Perfect for my needs

Wonderful markers, easy to use and blend. Price was much less than I found with another company.

This review contains two different sets of markers from the same company. The markers I picked were the nib tip. I’m very happy with these markers. They are definitely high-quality markers. I don’t have a whole lot of experience with alcohol markers to be able to compare them to other brands, but I would say they are high grade crafter/artisan level versus professional artist grade. As long as you use the circular method, even with the nib tip, you can cover large-ish areas very evenly. I don’t think this marker would evenly cover a blue sky that took up a third of a page, but most alcohol markers, unless they’re very wet and have a chisel tip are not gonna be able to do . The pictures attached to the review show a light blue, and that was my worst swatch of the bunch. I spent a lot of time playing around with the markers and learning about them and I can say that the tips are very firm but they do soften up and once they start to soften up just a bit, they lay down so beautifully and it makes the whole process very easy. Again, as long as you use the circular method, the area will stay wet for a relatively good amount of time. I was frankly surprised, considering that these markers to touch our dryer, and clearly are made to lay down a little drier so that you can layer without your paper like completely sopping up All the ink on the first pass. I use their suggested blending method, but I actually didn’t like it and I found I could just blend on my own better using a more natural method. The reason I bought these markers wasn’t because of their focus on layering the three colours in each marker to create nice gradient. It was actually because each pen had a tent, a tone and a shade. And I I think that will help me learn colour theory while using the markers A lot better. I also took the swatches and I read them with a colourimeter that I own. So if you look at the pictures, you will see the name of the marker and then a bunch of numbers and information underneath the swatch. The first set is the hex code. And when I swatched the colours and my colour metre app shows me the hex code equivalent. It was like bang on every time. Then I took that hex code information and translated it into natural colour system code. Because that is the colour theory method that I prefer. It’s a four primary system where green is considered a primary. So underneath that is the translated NCS code. And the final number underneath is the percentage that the hex code was to representing the NCS code. Most were 95% and above matches. So feel free to use that information if you would like to type in hex codes and see what certain colours are gonna look like or to make your own colour wheel. The final picture is a colour wheel that I made using the NCS system. Which you are also welcome to use to help you on your colouring journey if you want to I hope that these pictures can really help people enjoy these markers because I think they’re really great markers and I’m very very happy that I purchased them.

This is a fabulous set. So good if you're not good at blending, the pen does it for you, with 3 blends in one pen. Just worth every cent!

Me gustaron mucho , es practico que tengan 3 colores en un mismo plumon , son un poco largos, no caben en cualquier estuche. A ver cuanto me duran

Wie erwartet.

I decided to buy a box of these markers so I would have plenty of colours . I bought the deep tones , I've just swatched them and they seem really good. Each marker was individually sealed which kept them all fresh but I personally found this plastic covering difficult to remove. I have used other alcohol markers in the range and they're good too, but I have noticed that there seems to be a short supply of some colours individually so I'm wondering how to replace my favourite shades once they are used . All in all a good choice if you can't afford some of the premium ranges. UPDATE : Since actually using these markers for a college design project I've found some markers to be very dry and run out almost immediately. This is affecting only a couple I've used so far but now I'm not too happy. I'll be contacting the company as I'm disappointed. Some of the markers are great ! Some not so much .
