We attended a local craft club where my friend brought these along. I was so impressed, I bought some too. We’ve been using them to write and draw on stones and slate in the garden, as signs or just to make a pretty display. Great, cheap product that would suit all ages, and would definitely keep kids busy for hours!
Bought these an my girls have seen them all over tiktok but I refused to pay the price for them. Found these markers on here & was a bit worried due to the price difference but these are great!!! Takes 10 pumps or so to get the ink down to the fibres but once they get going they’re great. Lovely colours, bright, vibrant. Even drew on black surfaces & you could see the ink!! Kids are over the moon & loving them.
First off these are much better value for money in regards to the overall price and how many pens/colours you get per set which is always a plus.
They are easy to use, just a quick shake, and a few pumps of the nib in some scrap paper and you’re ready to go. The colours were vibrant and laid down smoothly without the constant need to ‘pump’ to get the ink flowing. The metallics do actually look metallic unlike some pens we’ve tried in the past.
The nibs didn’t clog, nor have they frayed.
They work well on multiple surfaces including; paper, acrylic, stone, wood.
My daughter loves them and they aren’t a great addition to her art supply collection. All in all we are both very happy with this purchase.
Bought for colouring rocks on holiday and worked out ok, took two coats to cover light grey rocks, used both blues, white, two greens. Took much longer to dry than expected, others dry quicker, with better coverage.
I have tested these over a few months now and I’ve found them to be excellent. Most of the colours are opaque, and work well. Would recommend painting a white base on terracotta pots; but used them straight onto stones with success. Some are harder to use than others, I struggle with the yellow, but if you keep shaking and pressing them they work well. The silver one is incredibly reflective, I love it. I would purchase these again, especially since they are so much better value than posca pens which perform similarly. The typo on the pen barrel is very charming and made me laugh
The first time I used to them I had to do a lot of shaking but after that really easy to use – as I would expect best for small areas. Lovely colours and fun for children (my grandson is 5 and enjoyed using with supervision) and adults.
Fantastic item, easy to use, does exactly what it says on the tin. Tried using normal paint on plastic lids and it just crumbled off. Used these instead and the items had been used loads and not even a chip on the paint. Will be using for lots more at home projects!
I like its ink that comes out very smooth and easy to draw. Colours are very nice. I just want a bit thin tip but over all I like them. Thank you
I brought these for the children to use at my daughters 6th birthday party as I thought it would be less messy than paints and brushes. Since buying they have been used to decorate wooden fairy houses, stones, plaster characters and more. Cannot recommend them enough, really good coverage and they lasted forever. This is the second pack now the original pack has finally run out after over 18 months!! Great product and alot cheaper than some other brands for the number of colours you get.
My kids were really happy using pens for painting stones. Previously we used paints where results was disappointing. But these gave them opportunity to draw anything, no leaks, very good coverage, quick drying. Only issue is before you use them first time you have to shake them, tap them and then wait until paint comes down to tip but it might take from 30 sec to 2 min. After that you can use them with no problem.
Found these pens great, would recommend for most surfaces and fast drying. The tip is a good size too. I’ve had some far too large for small areas and tiny ones that arnt good for much. Will buy again.
I bouggt these to paint on rocks. As long as you prepare the surface and put on an undercoat the pens work great. I will be trying a more expensive brand soon but I enjoyed using these pens.
I had started a painting on canvas with the usual acrylic paints and paintbrushes, then was able to use the acrylic paint pens to put in detail that a brush just couldn’t do. I found the colours to be good and fairly opaque so the under-colours didn’t show through, even if they were quite strong or dark colours. (A rider to that statement: 1 or 2 colours might have needed a second application). I’m very pleased to have found these pens as I didn’t know they existed before seeing them on Amazon.
I have acrylic posca pens, but wanted a less expensive option to make cardboard crafts for my son. These are excellent pens, and excellent value for money. The only downside is that you need more patience when working with them, as they are much slower to dry than posca pens, but for less than a third of the price (maybe even less), I couldn’t recommend them more. The pigmentation I have found to be brilliant. I will happily replace this set at this price, and won’t feel as bad when my son rejects my crafty work!
The pens were bought for my teenage daughter’s birthday specifically for rock painting. The paint pens work beautifully, the colours are rich and very easy to paint the rock surface. For this activity, the pens are proving to be a very convenient and effective substitute to acrylic paints in tubes. It has allowed her to rock paint even for a few minutes with no mess as it’s literally taking a lid off the pen. We have used it on card as well with perfect results. One uses it just like a pen so very easy for little ones to use too.
Just to highlight that to first release the ink, one has to shake the pens quite vigorously, press the nib onto a piece of paper and then shake again. This activates the flow of the paint.
Would recommend this set of acrylic pens. Delivery was super efficient.
I have done a side by side comparison of these and can say:
Pro:
– They cost a fraction of the price
– They are a thinner paint so you can get quite a lot of coverage without the paper ripping up as much as the posca paints have caused (I use mixed media paper by Dale Rowney).
– They seem to have good layering coverage, as you can see from the photo. I will say that if you layer too much I feel that it would cause bad bleeding. But I would say with proper care this can be limited
– excellent colour palette for the price
Cons:
– I feel the colours are slightly duller than that of the posca pens
– because the paint is thinner it takes a long time to dry. I use a lot of layering, and posca pens dry in seconds so I can sit and work on a single piece of work for along time. These pens take several minutes, even for these small test patches it took more than 5 minutes for it to dry, some patches took even longer. The blue circle with drawn with these markers wasn’t dry enough when I did the pink lines, so you can see some bleeding of the colours.
– I do feel like these have the potential to not hold up to several layers. Again probably because of the paint thinness it feel like if you tried more than 2 layers that it would just turn into a mess…..But I have not yet tested this
Overall I think the pros do outweigh the cons. Im not sure I would use these 100% of the time over posca, but definitely will buy them again.
Love these pens. We have used these in school to paint stones with the nursery/reception class [supervised of course]. Also painted stones with my grandaughters. The colours are lovely and bright, pens last a long time. I have just purchased another set to pass on as a gift . They are great value for money and just as good as the more well known expensive pens which I also use. I can highly recommend these.
This Bumble Bee mug is the first project I used these pens for. They are easy enough to use and work ( I feel) like felt tip pens but obviously with paint and not ink. If you’re shading a large area, a small tipped brush is probably better to avoid streaks. I overcame that by doing a sort of dabbing dot motion. I have to say, I really like these pens. They’re so easy to use. I have decorated three mugs so far and still plenty of paint left, and so plan to do more shortly.
Thats all i have to show in terms of product, but i am so happy with these pens, i got them for my uni course, but ive used them when drawing/painting and theyve been so useful, very thick paint which is good, dries well, very pigmented. if you dont want to spend crazy amount of money on branded paint pens (acrylic) then these are perfect. my sister has used them on canvas, ive used them on wood, glass and paper. very versatile. i highly recommend!
These pens work really well and are easy to control. I was worried they might be leaky when you press down to release the ink (which I find often happens with metallic writing pens) but that wasn’t the case at all. They are very easy to control, whether you are drawing lines or dots. I’ve tried them on glass and pebbles and was very impressed with the results. A great range of colours so there’s plenty of scope for designs.
I ordered these pens originally to give a new lease of life to my favourite garden stone. (Pictured) but I have discovered they have come in handy for so many things. I have covered a scratch on my freezer door, put a fading pattern back on bathroom tiles, covered chips on kitchen units, refreshed ornaments etc. I have found so many uses for them! They are easy to use and give great coverage. The nib can be turned from wide to slim depending on what you are painting. Best purchase ever, I would highly recommend this product!
Great pens – They do take a quite a bit of shaking but the work really well on all materials. they arrived within time and have made our wee ones and us very happy . Easy to use for both our two and four year olds. Our only gripe was that one pen ran out of paint instantly other than that really happy. Will happily by again thank you
