As someone who has dabbled in various brands of alcohol markers, including some of the more expensive ones, I can confidently say that the Ohuhu Alcohol Markers Double Tipped Set has exceeded my expectations. These markers are a lifesaver, especially now that it’s back-to-school season.

One of the things I love most about these markers is their dual-tip design. The broad tip is perfect for covering large areas, which I often need for background work. On the other hand, the fine tip allows me to add intricate details effortlessly. This versatility is hard to find, even in pricier brands.

The 60 vibrant landscape colors in this set are simply stunning. They bring my nature scenes to life with such depth and richness. The colorless blender is another excellent addition; it makes blending colors smooth and easy without any smudging, thanks to the fast-drying, alcohol-based ink.

Unlike other brands where I constantly worry about running out of ink, these markers can be refilled, saving me money and reducing waste. The ergonomic grip is also a game-changer, making long drawing sessions comfortable and enjoyable.

The Tom's Studio Lumos Ivy Duo Tip Refillable Fineliner & Brush Pen is truly a sight to behold. Its elegant design and beautiful finish immediately caught my eye, and the larger barrel provides a comfortable grip, making long writing or drawing sessions much more enjoyable.

With both a fineliner and a brush tip, it offers the flexibility needed for various projects, from intricate line work to expressive brush strokes. The fact that it's refillable is another huge plus, as it ensures that this pen can be a long-lasting part of my collection.

However, I did encounter some difficulties when it came to setting it up. The instructions were not included inside the bag but rather printed on the inside of the wrapper, which made them easy to miss initially.
Even after finding the instructions, they didn't cover how to get the ink into the pen. I had to search for a YouTube video to figure out the process, adding unnecessary time and frustration to what should have been a straightforward setup.

Despite these initial hurdles, once I got everything working, the pen performed beautifully. The ink flow is smooth, and the quality of the lines is impressive. I particularly appreciate the comfort of the larger barrel, which fits perfectly in my hand and reduces fatigue.
