ChameleonArt Products, 5-Pen, Primary Tones Set

I bought these as a gift for my granddaughter and she loves them. She's quite artist and creative and likes that she's able to create her own custom colours with them. It's also good that you can expand the set with whatever colours you choose.

I really like the Chameleon pens! They're one of my favorite mediums to color with these days because they make blending, highlighting, and full coloring easy. I can see how some people say that they are time consuming, but that is part of the process and for me, the ability to easily blend colors is worth an extra 15 seconds.I also like the colors of the markers. This set of Primary Tones has 5 beautiful basic colors that are versatile in any coloring book. The color at full color is vibrant and lays flawlessly on the page. These markers will bleed through standard coloring book pages, so I do recommend having a blotter behind the page you are coloring to keep the next page from being ruined.You just need to allow the colored part of the marker to saturate with the blending end of the marker and the longer you hold the marker upright, the longer you'll have to blend. I will say that it took awhile to figure out the technique to use the blending process, but after playing with the pens for a bit I did get the hang of blending with the pens and ABSOLUTELY LOVE them. Chameleon Pens also has tutorials on their website explaining how to use the pens with different techniques and there are also instructions in the packaging.Another benefit of these markers is that they're refillable and the nibs (tips of the markers) are replaceable. So, yes these markers a more expensive than other alcohol based markers, but they'll last a lifetime and the ink refill and nibs are not as expensive as the initial investment of the entire marker.TIP: Once the brush tip is "broken in", you will want to be aware how closely you are coloring to the lines. As I mentioned, this ink will bleed through a page, but that also means that it will spread across the page. I didn't have a problem with the color bleeding over the lines when the nib was brand new, but after some use, that's when I really noticed that I didn't want to color directly next to them. I've found that once I leave a little space, the color will spread and fill in any remaining space.I added photos as examples of the ink being blended and full strength from the following books: Flowers for Beginners: An Adult Coloring Book with Simple Flower Designs and Easy Floral Patterns for Stress Relief and Relaxation Smiles To Brighten Your Day - Adult Coloring Book: An Uplifting Coloring Book for Adults with the Happiest Cats and Dogs : Simple Designs : Easy Coloring Cheaper than Therapy: An Irreverently Snarky Adult Coloring Journal (Irreverent Book) (Volume 6) Overall, I would and have recommended these pens to my friends and family and I hope that my review helps you decide whether or not you'd like them too!

Die Stifte sind super.Leider hatten wir das Pech, dass zwei nicht funktionierten.ich habe Kontakt zur Firma aufgenommen in England und nach kurzem Hin-und her Schreiben wurden mir neue zugeschickt. (die ganze Abwicklung war einfach und sehr sehr freundlich)Man muss schon ein wenig üben um die gewünschten Effekt zu erzielen.Die Handhabung ist etwas umständlich aber wenn es ein paar mal gemacht hat gewöhnt man sich dran.Zu erst die Kappe abnehmen, dann die Stiftspitze an die Alkoholspitze halten. Wichtig diese Alkoholseite nach oben halten. Der Alkohol zieht die Farbe raus und so entsteht der "lightning"effect.

Purchased this for my son and he’s sworn he will never go back to Crayolas. His art work stands out much more with the vibrant colours.

Gute Qualität. Man muss sich ein wenig mit den stiften beschäftigen (wieviel Farbe man entziehen kann, damit ein bestimmter Farbeffekt entsteht)Zu empfehlenSchöne und kräftige Farben
