POSCA Pigment Marker DOODLE ART set — 20-piece metal box: 6 x PC1MC, 7 x PC3M, 7 x PC5M

The POSCA Pigment Marker DOODLE ART set is a comprehensive collection of 20 high-quality water-based markers housed in a durable metal presentation box. This professional-grade set provides a versatile range of tip sizes, including six extra-fine PC1MC markers, seven medium PC3M markers, and seven broader medium PC5M markers. Designed for artists, illustrators, and hobbyists, these markers feature opaque, pigment-rich ink that delivers vibrant, consistent color across a wide variety of surfaces.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this set is the inclusion of multiple tip sizes, which allows for seamless transitions between intricate detailing, precise outlining, and broader coloring tasks. The water-based pigment ink is non-toxic, odorless, and lightfast, ensuring that your artwork remains vivid over time. Because the ink is opaque, it can be layered effectively, allowing lighter colors to cover darker ones once dry. The metal storage box provides excellent protection and organization, making it easy to transport your creative tools safely.

Suitable for

• Detailed illustration and character design
• Hand-lettering and calligraphy projects
• Doodling and creative sketching
• Mixed media art on wood, card, and paper
• Customizing craft projects and decorative items

This set may not be the optimal choice for projects requiring permanent adhesion on non-porous surfaces like polished glass or metal, as the ink is water-based and can be removed with water or abrasion unless sealed. It is also not intended for large-scale mural work where high-volume ink flow is required.

How to use

Before using your POSCA markers, shake the pen firmly with the cap on to ensure the internal ball mixes the pigment ink thoroughly. Remove the cap and press the tip down onto a scrap piece of paper several times until the ink begins to flow into the nib. Once the tip is saturated, you can begin drawing. Always replace the cap tightly after use to prevent the nib from drying out. If the tip becomes dry, it can be rinsed with water or replaced if necessary.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the surface you intend to use is compatible with water-based pigment ink.
• Consider whether you need a permanent finish, as these markers may require a fixative spray on certain surfaces.
• Check if the provided tip sizes meet the specific requirements of your artistic style.

Usage recommendations

For the best results, store your markers horizontally to maintain an even ink flow to the nibs. If you are working on porous surfaces like wood, consider priming the area first for a smoother finish.
