Liquitex Wide Paint Marker Neutral Grey 8
Liquitex Pro Paint Markers contain the finest quality professional acrylic paint, giving you greater control over your artwork. Wide tip measures 15mm and is replaceable. The pigments are processed using tiny reinforced ceramic beads, which give fine dispersion, strength and brightness. The paint is highly lightfast and conforms to at least ASTM II, with some colours conforming to ASTM I. It's water-soluble when wet, but once dry it is permanent and can be over-painted or varnished. The barrel of each marker indicates not just the colour it contains, but the opacity of that colour, so there is a choice of opaque, semi-opaque and transparent shades. To use, give the marker a good shake first, to thoroughly mix the paint. Then press the nib down a few times to start the flow. Markers should be securely capped when not in use, and stored horizontally.

I just discovered acrylic pens and love them. Still getting used to them, and these pens do tend to dry out - not completely, you just get these bits of dried acrylic paint on the nibs that you kind of have to wipe off. It's not a huge deal and is to be expected with acrylic paint, after all. Great layering possibilities. The cobalt blue is a beautiful color and in fact, all of the colors I've bought so far are intense and a delight to use. I love that they are slightly transparent with first applications so that you can get cool layering if you want. Or, if I mess up, I use the white or some other color to blot out the mistake and try again! I'll redo a drawing several times, and I love that you can draw AND paint with these! Looking forward to seeing how many ... MoreI just discovered acrylic pens and love them.

I'm not an artist by any means, but my wife is. She suggested this type of paint for me to use on a project. I purchased Cobalt Blue & Flo Red. I have a RC plane made of foam & I needed a foam safe paint. The plane is Cobalt Blue & white. The blue matched the plane perfectly for touch up scratches I had made on poor landings. The Red I wanted to make the plane more visible in flight. Application was very easy, clean up was great. The nib can be removed and cleaned with plain water, as can the nib holder. The paint flows nicely & works great on foam. The nib is not felt but some kind of hard foam that leaves your lines sharp. I dabbed some onto a paper plate & used a small brush for tight spots which also worked great. I would recommend this paint marker to other RC ... MoreI'm not an artist by any means, but my wife is.

I use paint markers on stretched canvas to overlay detailed work on acrylic paintings. Markers in general are not great for evenly covering large surface areas however for small paintings or detail work in a large painting, these markers are my go-to solution. Initially only 3-4 depressions are needed to get the paint flowing. Over-depressing the tip will clog the marker and a new nib will be needed. Shaking the marker occasionally during use helps with smooth application. Stored properly capped and in a horizontal position ensures that it will be ready for immediate use the next time you use it.

The design of the tip gives you 4-5 different line widths, so even though this tip is wide, you can get some finer lines by angling it different ways. Solid flow and really great light value color for mixed media work.
I like the control I have with these for details. I wish there was a slightly finer tip but for most things they are good enough. They incorprate well into other acrylic paints with no problems. Right now I have tried 30 colors and plan on adding the rest of the available colors. The only problem I have experienced so far is Burnt Umber seems to clog up the tip but not so bad I have had to replace the tip yet. May be my own fault, I don't know just learning to use them. So far I love them. Just to be honest here... I have no idea how they compare with other similar products because I have not used them. I know there are cheaper ones for sale but I generally enjoy the quality of Liquidtex products.
I paint miniature paintings of houses as client gifts for my real estate agent husband. In past years I have used acrylics and small brushes and it's always a huge chore - paints dry out, lots of color mixing, brushes get clumpy, a big pain. This year I bought a bunch of these markers and my job was SO much easier, the result was much cleaner, brighter and sharper, and each ornament took about half the time. You can blend them on a not-too-porous surface (I use gessoed wood) if you work quickly. The small tips give very sharp lines (although some markers flow faster than others). Great product and has made this particular project significantly more fun.
Always happy with my purchases from Blick including replenishing This Liquitex Paint Marker, which I use all the time on my Mixed Medium pieces, High quality and price is great. LOVE these markers. Great Customer service and continuous sale items. Always go here first when I need art or art related supplies. 15 +++ stars from me - a repeat customer.
Really fun markers, a note about the greys: for some reason, neutral grey 8 is super light, right? and neutral 5 is really dark, but neutral 7 isn't quite in between, it's sorta closer to 8. Overall, 8 is a great light, neutral grey, and I wish that 7 were a better in-between grey, so that value studies could come out better. 8, 7, and 5 are the only ones available either from Blick or from the Liquitex website. Still, a good set of greys overall.
I love the idea of the acrylic paint markers and have been using them for about the last 6 months. The idea is great but the markers are trouble! Feels like each one is unique - some leak like crazy, while others in order to get to the paint it has to be beaten out of them. I have enjoyed learning to use them, how to layer to get a color you want, how to fo touch up at the end with a brush and paints knocked out of the tube. The caps stick on some or fall off on others and the nibs dry out if the cap falls of and you don't catch it. Good luck! Maybe Liquitex will listen and fix some of the problems or warn people to stay away!
I just discovered acrylic paint markers and feel like I've entered a whole new world of possibilities that I want to be in. These markers can be tricky - at least they are for me, because they are acrylic paint after all, so the nibs will dry out if you leave the cap off for a minute, which I do because I lose myself in the process of using them. I'm finding it's a trick, too, to mix the colors because they do dry fast, so you gotta move fast (and keep the caps off! :)) if you wanna mix red and white to make pink. Or, you could just buy a pink marker! But they're $$ so I'm tryna mix ;) They're transparent at first, which I like, and become opaque after only two or three more coats, which I also like. Layering colors is - yep! - tricky, cuz the new layer will wipe ... MoreI just discovered acrylic paint markers and feel like I've entered a whole new world of possibilities that I want to be in.

Layering colors is - yep! - tricky, cuz the new layer will wipe off if you go over it too many times. Thick over thin, which is hard to achieve with markers, but it's possible to an extent! Overall, super fun and I love getting ideas out using these markers. I use them to draw out larger paintings that I fill in with acrylic paint, and i use them in my sketchbook. It's amazing, the many ways they can be employed and it's really exciting to be alive at a time when so many options are open to artists! I might also be tryin to use these markers in a way that isn't really true to the nature of acrylic: I like nuance, soft edges, mixing... not a strong suit in the acrylic department and not really how acrylic markers are meant to be used, I think - but I do like challenge and it's fun to both try to get the effects that I want and learn to accept the uses and limitations of a medium and tool that is ultimately best suited to crisp lines, bold colors and marks, and a more... I suppose, print-like, graphic art-like effect.
