I really love the Prismacolor dual tip brush pens that retail for $5.99 each... so when I saw these water-based brush tip markers for such a cheap price on amazon I decided to try them out. The colors are vibrant and beautiful. The brush tips on these markers are about 50% smaller/thinner than the dual tip pens and not as soft so much less like painting and more like a somewhat flexible felt tip pen. The tips are sharp and thin enough to make a really thin line with a steady hand.
The target market for these markers are school age children. As far as age is concerned I believe it would very much depend on the child. I have 7 year olds and a 4 year old that I would not let use these markers because they would destroy the brush tips in 5 minutes or less. If you know your child is rough on markers, then I suggest you save a few $ and opt for a big cheap $3 set from a big box store that they can use till they are broken. On the other hand, if your child is already doing art with fine details and gentle with pens then s/he will love these.
If I had received a set of markers like these in highschool I would have been stoked.. and I was big into art. These are great for coloring manga or comics for adults or older kids and a lot cheaper... just be careful if you're coloring the same work with alcohol based pens as the ink from these can smudge slightly if you overlap onto it.
I am extremely pleased with these markers... I only wish there were more colors.
