Tombow 56187 Dual Brush Pen Art Markers, Pastel, 10-Pack. Blendable, Brush and Fine Tip Markers

Tombow markers are always worth buying. It's unusual to get pale colors in a marker set, so I was happy to add this set to my existing markers. These markers produce smooth colors, the tips stay sharp, and the caps fit well.

I don't use my markers for super artistic endeavors. I use these mostly for coloring books, but they're amazing quality for a decent price. Absolutely would recommend.

Beginner-friendly and super easy to use! The ink lasts a long time and doesn’t run out quickly, which is a big plus. My only complaint is that it’s a bit pricey for what you get. Still, if you’re just getting started, it’s a solid pick. I also really like the variety of the colours.

I love this set of pastel markers and have very nice light colors

They are high quality and they are beautiful as well on the paper must try!

The pastel set that I wanted was not what I received. There's one minor difference between the pastel palette set and another Tombow pastel set which was the one I wanted. Basically, both have the same colors except one; the Tombow pastel set that is shown on Amazon contains the color N95 but the set that was sent to me contained a colorless blender. I later realized these were two different sets when I checked on Michael's. Be careful when you order the pastel set. If you don't mind the difference then both sets will contain the same colors with the exception of the cool grey. I should have been more careful reading the reviews because people who purchased the pastel set mention using the blender.The markers themselves were fine though. I had no issue with them and I enjoyed the colors of this set. As others have mentioned, they might pill paper but I expected as much since they are water based. To prevent the issue, wait for the markers to dry on the paper before going over with another layer. Otherwise the paper will start to rub away. It states on the package that it's blendable but the colors won't meld into each other the way alcohol markers do. The colorless blender also doesn't really do a good job of blending and tends to wear the paper more than it helps. In my opinion, it's better to lay down color and quickly blend it out with water from a brush or the pentel water pens.Overall, I think it's a good set for beginners who want to dabble with markers, learn lettering or use for coloring books. Just mostly beware that you might end up with a different set than advertised.

I’ve been eyeing these brush pens for months (the better part of a year) and I’ve passed them in the fine arts section of michaels many a time. Amazon had the exact same pens for 1/2 the price! I couldn’t resist any more and snapped them upAll of these pens were in perfect condition (sometimes I’ll get dried out ones when I order art things online, this wasn’t the case)I love the way they blend together and the light pastel colors are perfect for bullet journaling!Sometimes they will bleed if layered extensively, so just keep that in mindBut so far, even in my moleskine, these won’t bleed with normal hand lettering!

These are beautiful brushpens of good quality and nice, sleek designs. I bought them to take notes but can imagine them good for lettering as well. I like the pastel colors that are easy on the eyes. I use the bigger brush for lettering or highlighting, then use the fine tip for underlining or write down subtitles.As you can see from my photo, some pastel colors are hard to see with bare eyes if you use only them. such as the bottom sky blue.The blender works okay but the moisture can lift up paper if you try to smudge it, so you have to use heavy watercolor paper if you want a nice smooth blend. The paper in the photo is canson XL mix media paper, 98lb. The paper bunch up a bit due to the moisture.
