Fun fact, most of these names come from what pigments are used. For example, black brown, probably used a very light black brown mix to create the orange tone. It’s why the numbers are that way too, because the letters are the pigments, and the number is the unique identifier within that colour bracket. I must admit, alcohol markers never act how they should on the cap, so you should always swatch.
This. That is also seen in watercolors or acrylics. If you check a tube, they can have only one pigment (PB 15:3, the common Phthalo blue) or more than two of them (neutral tint have PBk 6, PV 19, PB 15. A black pigment, a violet pigment and a blue pigment).
That's not right. The letter just refers to the categories of color, like P=Purple, G=Green, R=Red, P=Purple, RP=Red-Purple. As the person before me said, these markers don't use pigments but dye. Pigment names look like this: PG7 (a green), PV55 (a violet), PB15:1 (a blue), etc., P stands for pigment and the other letter ist the color family, like Green or Purple. Please don't spread misinformation, there are now at least 433 people who went away from your comment, believing what you said is correct although it's bs, sorry.
@@439801RS not necessarily. According to the Oxford dictionary, the only difference between pigment and dye is that pigment is natural while dye can be synthetic. Apparently, it's a bit more complicated than that, but come on, don't nitpick.
Me being jealous of all the artists with all their art supplies because I'm broke and NO WAY my parents will buy em for me: *sobs* BUT! I'm glad you're liking them! I once bought 1 single copic marker (it was like on show case) and I LOVED IT.
Same for me... But I found some nice water based markers that are dual tipped. I can use one side for lines and the other for coloring. They're pretty cheap too. Was planning to ask my mom soon.
I actually been doing professional art with Copic alcohol markers for year, I always suggest having a spare piece of paper with you to test the colors and blending before you use it.
"If it’s dark ... than HOW the heCK is it light ??" Honey that’s the markers logical WE human don’t need to understand Edit : Thanks for all the like this is my most liked comment so yeah 😭💕
I think maybe it's a dark violet light🕯️ like the light to see in the dark and those lights no matter if it's a dark colour they still look like a light colour (My English is not good but still hope you understood my point 💀)
@𝕄𝕠𝕔𝕙𝕚 maybe because it's darker for a pastel range, so they called it a dark color. Also, these were probably made in China, so names might have gotten mistranslated.
I have over 250 alcohol brush markers and they are so much fun to use and yes the colors sometimes dont match, I go mostly for copic and tombow inks because they are pretty good. But having a sketchbook of color coded marker colors will help out a lot if you have been using several brands. Try that it might help
Also I have an explanation on the behalf of Ohuhu for the Dark Violet light lol🤣 that maybe the people who were naming the colours were not fluent in English and therefore thought to name a colour on the darker end of the lighter spectrum of violet like this. (I hope this makes sense)
I have an idea that I haven’t done yet but also haven’t heard anyone suggest. Swatching out the colors then cut them in a shape that would match the ends of the caps, write the number, and then glue them on both caps of each pen. This way your swatch is directly on the cap and you don’t have to refer to your swatch sheet every time you need to choose a color.
Thank you for mentioning this. I just started learning with ohuhu markers and I was so confused about why everything looked off. I finally swatched all of them and have my swatch cards out at all times. Idk why art brands can't get this down. Makeup brands were notoriously bad at matching colors to the product but in recent years gotten almost spot on with most packaging and product colors
Dark violet light means this: Dark violet is a shade soo, it’s just a light shade of dark violet. It not actually telling that the colour is dark or light it’s just telling a lighter shade of colour which’s name has the word dark in it. Hope that explained it. :)
Thank you for highlighting this issue. As a colorblind artist, I rely on the names being accurate to the color and it gets very overwhelming having to remember and chart up what colors are called what by which brands.
Most art supplies have the packaging vs product colour problem because it’s almost impossible to achieve the same pigmentation from art supplies as you would from resin plastic
Love your nails hehe 💕 I'm always think about getting some alcohol markers but I always end up not buying some. I don't know which brand I should get, I dont know how many colours I should get, they are somehow expensive and ahhhh I just don't know. But they look so cool in videos and I want to try them :c Also the colours really confuse me just like you said. HOW CAN A DARK COLOUR BE LIGHT?
(( take this advice with a grain of salt, I'm getting this information from creators I know that use alcohol markers a ton, but do your own research and see what feels right! )) Okay! Good beginner Alcohol marker brands I recommend are Artxx and Ohuhu! They both come at student prices, and are relatively cheaper than their competitors Unfortunately, it is still pricey, since the ink from alcohol markers is hard to obtain/manufacture, I presume Personally, I recommend a 12 pack set from Artxx, since those markers are not named (to my knowledge) and only numbered Ohuhu is a little pricey, but they're good quality, and have plenty of variation in quite a few packs ALWAYS SWATCH YOUR COLOURS! I feel like this is true for any marker really Also, pastel set, it's just darker than most of the pastels :)
that first issue is a mood even in colored pencils.. like, I have 3 blues, labelled 346,347, and 348, yet '46 and '47 look the same and '48 seems to have taken the saturation that '47 needed..
Alcohol markers use dyes but they apparently have to put pigments in the caps so they don’t match. Plus the other stuff they mix in the caps throws the colours off too
This just needed to be done by someone the colors never match the caps… and I thought exactly the same about the “dark violet light” but I like the markers tho
That brand is still my fav! 😢 I misplaces mine and refuse to color without them but I am starting to lose hope they were not stolen by a house guest last year! 😢
i have similar doubts when using them, mine are way cheap and don't come with a testing paper so i just keep a piece of paper near me while drawing and try out every marker before i use it
What I do when I get alcohol markers is that I mark a paper of the color from the marker and then I tape it on the side of the marker so instead of me looking at the cap of what color I want to use, I look to the side so I can see what it would look like on paper. I still don’t usually use alcohol markers because I don’t have the right paper to use it for but it’s still a nice thing I do to help me when I use them often.
I’m new to alcohol markers and I keep forgetting to swatch, so many times I accidentally make something way to dark and trying to fix it just makes it worse
My friend got those cheap touch ones and one of the colours says “fresh green” the actual colour is a like yellowish orange kinda colour with a browny tint. Doesn’t look like green at all
Yeah I agree lol my "yellow" Markers are kind of like brown and "green yellow" And "neon yellow" Are literally the perfect yellow colors. Not to mention the "pastels" Are so vibrant
Relatable, my sister bought alcohol markers for my birthday, but I don’t think the brand is very good. I was drawing something today, but I noticed that I have 5 markers that are all called ‘’Warm grey’’ I wanted to draw with them because I needed a grey marker. But when I opened it, the marker was PINK for some reason. I checked the other 4,but no. The other 4 were also pink.
Yeah, alcohol markers color correction can be very confusing. However, I got to use alcohol markers to use something different in art and I am in love with them
for the colours never matching the caps, it all depends on the type of paper you use them on. I've gotten mixed results when using my watercolour, marker, and regular sketchbook paper.
It’s the paper sometimes the color looks different on other papers so try to find a paper that suits u best and fits the cap color :) (another reason is they can’t perfectly replicate the cap color to the actual marker when producing nothings perfect not even machines)
“this is why I hate alcohol markers”

Those are some great pastel tones
My bone to pick is they bleed through most paper always and immediately

it’s because its like highlighters like they are kinda transparent but u can color alot of times until it gets darker
Try caliart they work so well. Chefs kiss
