  • Trying these marker comparisons in short form for shorts! I briefly go over some similarities and differences between the BIC Markers and Sharpie Markers while I color this fantasy character! On the left is BIC and on the right is SHARPIE! Let me know your thoughts on these quick versus, and tell me what you'd like to see next!
    For highlights, I used a white Posca paint pen on both sides

    sharpie seems good for deep colors and less detailed artwork, while bic seems good for lighter colors and more detailed artwork. both are good when you use them for the right purpose 👍👍👍

      Also Sharpies have a lot of super brights which can be a pro or a con depending on what you're drawing, and I think Sharpies stink more. Though Sharpie has a line of waterproof, alcohol markerproof pens in an entire rainbow of colors under the Sharpie Pen line and some even have brush tips which is awesome.

    I've always drawn with Sharpies when I was in middle school, so when I got bic, I was very much surprised how light the colors were since I'm so used to Sharpies. Right now, I no longer use bic or Sharpies to draw since I have gotten the 216 pk of Ohuhu Brush markers from working my ass off. In the end, I prefer Sharpies because of their new color range.

    • @crimeslime5419
      @crimeslime5419 2 роки тому

      Same, only for me it was Bic! I liked using them for the soft/chunky tips, worked great with my cartoony artwork back then. I also preferred the color selection. But if sharpie came out with new colors I wanna check those out 🤔
      Now I’m just a hobbyist that colors and draws occasionally, so keep some tombows on hand. I only have a couple sets, gotta keep an eye out for those Amazon price drops. Never buy them in the art stores because they’re always gonna be 2 or 3 times the Amazon prices, I don’t know why! Usually things are spendier on there.
