Purchasing Copic markers: Some common mistakes everyone tend to make

 

Colors are too dark: on uncoated papers pick lighter colors than you think it’s easier to go darker than to go lighter.

Colors are too vibrant: vibrant colors catch the eye, so people often purchase them but when  they get home to coordinate markers with a project they find the  super-bright colors aren’t as useful.

Not enough colors to blend: you need to get two colors in each family.

Not enough contrast between colors: in many color families you need to jump more than 2 digits to get colors that will blend and still show up as being different.
