"Illustration marker" that appeared in Daiso earlier this year and became a hot topic. With a reputation similar to that of the "Copic Marker" dedicated to illustrations, it was sold out at every store.
I found this illustration marker at the store, so I bought more than one. I would like to review it while remembering the usability of the Copic markers that I once bought by spending my pocket money.
Daiso Illustration Marker
A set of two colors with similar colors is 100 yen (excluding tax). Copic markers cost about 400 yen each, so the price per one is about 1/8 ...
Hold two nibs for each color, head and hips. One is thin like a felt-tip pen, and the other is wide and thick like a marker. It does not have a pen tip like the soft brush of a Copic marker. This is a big difference.
Color bleeding, blurring, and even coating are comparable to Copic. The color is just like the color of the cap. Be careful as it also shows through!
It is not suitable for the soft and delicate expression that can be done with the Copic brush pen axis (especially for character hair), but I think it fits well with pop and deformed styles. Above all, the price is extremely cheap, so it is recommended for people who want to give it a try or who want to draw illustrations, although it is not as apt as it used to be. I'm also happy for students who have little money to free.
I'm lucky to find it because I rarely see it in stores. We recommend securing it!
