Not that I have spending money for art supplies at present, but I do occasionally browse on Amazon and on Blick Art Supply's website, imagining projects that could be done with various materials and paints, etc. After reading some of your previous posts about markers, I also came to the conclusion that Ohuhu had more promise that Copics, given the difference in range of colors that can be bought for a specific price from the two companies. More possibilities with Ohuhu for the same amount.
I've been learning from the Art School of Colleen. <big grin>
well said Colleen... i much prefer my watercolors than Copic, tho when in a bind, the marker combined with colored pencils fit the bill- the amount of work time doesn't change :-)
Lots of people invested in those things, and when you say hey, they're not lightfast and they're too expensive, they bite your head off. Sunk cost fallacy: if I paid a lot for it, it must be good! Nope.
I have a question about the water pens. Do you just put water in them and then use them like a brush for water colors?
Yes. Water goes in the reservoir. When you tip the brush, a little water comes out, or you can squeeze a tad and more water comes out.

I still sometimes use markers for comps. But usually watercolor markers.
I've got a bunch of Ohuhu markers. I really enjoy using them, not that I'm much good 😅
I'm glad you're enjoying them. I don't see any significant difference between them and Copics. Only the price.
The price is what made me choose them. I've never tried Copics, and for the price they ask I'm very unlikely to.
