Epic Battle: Prisma Vs. Copics

Mon May 26, 2008, 1:02 PM

Okay so my set of 72 copic markers that Ive had for about... almost four years have now finally reached theyre ultimate destiny of drying out. I need to buy a new set of markers. But the set of copics is about $300 for a set of 72.. I was looking at the set of 150 Prisma markers but I was wondering if any of you Prisma users out there think its worth getting that big of a set... And what kind of pens do you use? Copic Multi liners or Faber Castel black pens for inking?

Help...

I find the prisma\'s kill your paper, they go on SO dark and thick

yeah thats what i remeber not liking about them. theyre rather "thick" inked. compared to copics. I draw on index paper and comic book backing boards so they can stand up to the ink thickness maybe..

Quality over quantity -- Copics are the better marker.

Whatever works!
I\'m only using Prisma\'s because I have a bunch of them.
Neat to see that you draw on comic book backing boards too!

I\'m voting copics. I have every color prisma marker, and hate them all, haha.

Seriously.

I use both. D;
But, honestly, Copics are just so amazing, in comparison to Prismas.
