What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Caliart 41 colors dual tip art markers permanent alcohol based markers. They don’t leave a noticeable streak, the colors are rich and have variety. Try watercolor paper, huhu has good marker paper, and bristol.
These markers are awesome for the price. They are fantastic. Work fine in combo with other alcohol markers including copics and copic's blending marker.
Cons
They are not returnable due to the alcohol in them. Kind of distasteful. That takes away the enjoyment of adult coloring.
They bleed so bad, the blending pen basically erases the pigment. Great if you're just coloring but for more professional works, they are terrible.

Highlights
Quality
The tips are durable and longlasting so i dont have to worry about them drying out or fraying over time
These pens are oil base and have good quality when blending colors
I color all day long and these have lasted well over a month of daily use
They dry up extremly quickly i colored a few pages black using the marker and now it will not color at all
Price
I highly recommend me if you want some alcohol markers and the price is great
This fit the category very well and it was a very reasonably priced item
Not all expensive alcohol markers are worth the price
They arent the cheapest that just end up pissing you off and waste of money but they are affordable
Shipping
All the colors were there and it shipped earlier than the ship date for me
It was delivered in one day which made it even better as i was shopping for valentines day
Packaging/appearance
They came as expected with a little thank you card in the case as well
Competitiveness
A few of the colors are too similar to each others and i wish there were more colors between biege and brown for skin tones

These are my first alcohol markers and i’d say they’re pretty quick to get used to they blend well but they do bleed through paper i used sketch book paper which i suspected would happen because they’re alcohol markers but i put a paper towel under the lage so it wouldn’t get on the next page if you used watercolor paper you wouldn’t have that problem

The color variation isn’t the best but it’s enough to get you started

My one actual issue is that the test page that comes with the markers doesn’t show the way the colors look on paper so i suggest swatching them on the paper you use so you know the exact shade of color your using
