Description[edit]

Copic markers are available in 358 non-toxic, alcohol-based ink colours and are refillable using standard colours ink refills. The refill inks can be mixed to create custom colours, and empty markers are sold for this purpose. The markers are airtight to prevent them from drying out.Sketch markers, which are the most popular version, have a chisel-style tip at one end and a brush tip at the other, though additional styles of replaceable nibs and tips are available.

The company also sells an airbrush system which utilizes either an air compressor or canned air to blow ink off the tips of the markers onto the paper.

History[edit]

Marker Sketch Shirts

In 1987, the initial classic line of Copic Markers was introduced in Japan with the manga industry in mind. A total of 71 colours were launched and were developed to meet designers' demand for photocopy-safe markers. The markers would not dissolve the toner of freshly-printed photocopies, and in turn the markers were given the name Copic, deriving from the word 'copies'.

In 1989, an additional 71 colours were added to the line, adding a set of more neutral tones and grays to the marker's library. These additional tones were created to accommodate for architectural design and figure painting. In 1991, 72 new colours were added to meet the need to design environments and fashion.

In 1993, Copic Sketch was introduced with an assortment of 144 colours. These markers featured a Super Brush Nib, a brush that revolutionized fine art markers with its nib durability and long-lasting lifespan. The Copic Sketch has since become the most widely sought-after marker from the company.

In 1998, the Copic Ciao marker was introduced. The line was released with 72 colours and was an inexpensive pack designed for beginners.Since 1999 many new colours were added to the line of Copic Sketch to meet the success of the markers and the expansion of the manga market. Many colours introduced to the Copic Sketch line included flesh tones, pastels, fluorescents and many more.^[1]

Copic Marker types[edit]

Ciao

Ciao markers are available in 180 colours. They have a brush nib, a chisel nib, and a circular barrel. They are smaller than Copic's other markers and are marketed as a more affordable option.

Classic

Classic markers are available in 214 colours with nine different tip options, including: two calligraphy tips, two types of broad tips, and a range of fine nibs. They come with a chisel nib and a bullet nib on each side.

Wide

Wide markers were available in 36 colours, had a wide chisel-shaped nib and a large oval shaped barrel. They have been used for large backgrounds as well as calligraphy. Too Corporation has discontinued the production of coloured Copic Wide in 2016, but Copic Wide Original (empty marker) continues to be sold.

Refill

Copic markers can be refilled with Copic ink refills. It is also possible to mix inks to create custom colours.

Copic Color System[edit]

The Copic Color System identifies and categorizes ink colours by using short colour codes. Such codes can be found on the base of any marker, as well as on the caps of classic and sketch markers. ^[2]

Copic Colour Wheel[edit]

The letter(s) on your marker represents the colour family it falls into. There are currently 16 Copic Marker colour families: ^[2]

Chromatic Colours (and Fluorescent Colour)[edit]

• R - Red
• B - Blue
• Y - Yellow
• G - Green
• V - Violet (Purple)
• YR - Yellow-Red (Orange)
• BG - Blue-Green (Teal/Turquoise)
• YG - yellow-green family
• BV - Blue-Violet
• RV - Red-Violet (Pink)
• E - Earth Tones (Brown)
• F - Fluorescent/Neon colours

Gray Tones[edit]

• N - Neutral Gray
• C - Cool Gray
• W - Warm Gray
• T - Toner Gray

Achromatic Colours[edit]

• 1 - Black Copic Markers are represented by number only: 100, and 110 for special (rich) black.
• 0 - Colourless Blender Markers are coded with a single 0 as they contain alcohol-based fluid with no pigment. ^[3]

Colour Saturation (Blending Group)[edit]

Following the letter is the first number. The first digit represents the level of saturation of the Copic Marker. This number ranges between 0- 9, with 0 being the purest form of colour and 9 being most desaturated (with the highest level of gray). ^[3]

Colour Value (Shade/Intensity)[edit]

The last digit(s) on Copic Markers represent a marker's colour intensity (aka how bright that colour is). These numbers are split between 12 levels (000, 00 and 0-9). Markers that fall closer to the 0 range are lighter in value, and become darker the closer they shift toward 9. Markers that are 000 and 00 in nature are often more transparent as they have a higher concentration of colourless blender alcohol-based fluid. ^[3]

Pens[edit]

Four types of pens are sold under the Copic brand, all of which are marketed as having 'Copic-proof' ink that does not smudge when coloured over with a Copic marker:^[4]

• The Multiliner is a fineliner. It is available in ten different colours and seven different nib thicknesses.
• The Multiliner SP is an upgraded version of the Multiliner with an aluminium body, a replaceable nib, and a replaceable ink cartridge. It is only available in black ink.
• The Gasenfude is a brush pen, available in black ink. Unlike some other manufacturers' brush pens, it cannot be refilled.
• The Drawing Pen features a fountain pen nib. It is available in black and sepia (brown) inks, and in two nib sizes.^[5]

Copic Airbrush System[edit]

The airbrush system uses disposable cans of compressed air, or air from a compressor, to spray ink from Copic Original and Sketch markers onto a surface. Airbrushing uses less ink than direct colouring since saturating the paper isn't necessary. ^[6]

PRO Markers - Alcohol Based

Copic Brand Markers

My go to marker brand is Copic marker. They are expensive, yes, however, they are also THE BEST, in my opinion. Why? Well, the markers are modular - you can purchase different tips for the markers. So If I want a bullet, brush or classic tip, I can buy those. You can also modify blank chisel tips to get a custom stroke. They also work with accessories produced by Copic like this Airbrushing kit.

Types of Copic Markers

Copic Sketch Markers For 3.99

Copic markers come in 3 varieties - Sketch, Classic and Ciao (and wide). I haven't had much if any experience with the Ciao, but the sketch and Classic are solid Choices. Let's talk about the classic and sketch. On the classic you will find a nice chisel tip and bullet tip on either end of the marker.

The chisel tip works well for blending or filling in areas and is really crisp. Again, the nice thing with Copic markers is that if you want to customize your setup, there are other tips available, like a bullet tip that is more rounded. There's also the fine bullet tip that comes standard with the marker, but after time and use, you may want to consider refreshing and replacing the tip.

Premium markers - Alcohol Based

The Copic sketch marker is similar to the Classic, but the barrel is ovular in shape. I think this keeps it from rolling off an angled table. The Copic sketch marker has a brush tip instead of the bullet tip which I think is what gives it the name 'sketch'�. It's handy if you like to use your markers is a less controlled way and lean more artistic or illustrative in your style. I do keep a few on hand for variety.

Copic Markers Are refillable!

Copic markers are also refillable. you can purchase a single marker anywhere from 5-8 USD depending on the sale you find, but then purchase refill ink that will extend the life of your marker tremendously. I'm not sure how many refills you EXACTLY get, but I've had a few markers for years now with moderate use and not had to purchase additional refill ink as of yet. Word on the street is you can get about 11 refills from a single vial.
