I was completely blown away by these pens when I first found them...the colours are vibrant and they blend beautifully and they're just so pleasurable to use! BUT they fade really badly in sunlight. When I noticed that the lilac in one of my pictures was fading and turning pink I made a test sheet of all the colours I owned and left it in the sun, covering half of each colour with card so I would be able to see the difference. I was shocked by how much some of the colours faded in just a couple of weeks. By the time two or three months had passed all the colours except black had faded very obviously. I now feel I have no choice but to keep my prismacolor marker artwork in the dark, even though it's some of my best work!

I am an artist and art teacher and I have used the Prismacolor markers for 6 years now at the art school where I work with children. We go through a lot of markers. Some of the colors dry out faster than others, such as the light blue and the light green. These markers do go on well, give a concise line and look wet and bold at first. I have also found that the colors will fade as other reviewers mentioned.

I am thinking of purchasing a set of 48 for my personal use, but am concerned the colors will dry out over time. I have had a set of Design 2 markers (96 count which I paid $100 for in 1994) and LOVE these markers. Finally after 15 years my Design 2 Markers are drying out! I got 15 years out of the Design 2 markers! I only wish they were still on the market,as they were also double ended and had a beautiful array of colors, and also a nice chisel tip. Prismacolor is the closest I can find so far for the price. I read Chartpak and Copic are other markers to consider, but their price is double that of Prismacolor. These markers get the job done, are better than Crayola for sure, but in the long run I wish there was another option on the market that matched my Design2 brand!

These four-size headed pens are fabulous for detail work on acrylic or oil paintings. I use them for portraits. The only thing you need to remember is to buy a larger set. I started with a 24 and a 48, because larger sets were out of stock. Today, I finally got a 144-color set and now I can hardly wait for the weekend to use them. The wider heads make what is almost like a water-color wash over large areas, while the fine point is wonderful for details.

I love these and would use them exclusively except for the fading problem. Even keeping pieces in the dark does not prevent fading. I am looking for another medium that works as well and am discouraged to have lost so many peices that I loved. Just glad I didn't sell them, I would have to be giving refunds right and left.
