Pros: The Promarkers boast beautiful and realistic colours that are easy to blend, allowing for seamless transitions between shades.

For artists seeking a versatile and captivating set of skin tone markers for their projects, the Winsor & Newton Promarker Skin Tones I Set is a fantastic choice.

Bought these to add to my growing set of markers and to also have quality alternatives to Copic markers which are quite pricey. For 48 markers of which that 48 includes a blender marker. Variety of colours but only one or two can be used for skin tone, I think. Not bothered because I bought another set specific for skin tone. I tested/ swatched them over a semi-smooth 300gsm craft card. Colours look great and kind of match the colour description on the markers. Even on a 300gsm card, there was some bleed through. I’m not bothered about that. They are markers and most of not all will do this. Easy grip. The box can be used as sturdy storage. I strongly recommend you keep the box. It looks great and keeps the pens organised and safe. Will be taking these in hand luggage when I go on holiday abroad. I’m sure they won’t cause security issue. The box is brilliantly designed and easy to open and close. Might have to buy a separate travel bag for these. The lighter colours started off as though were dry but after a few swatches the colour came through and pen was alive with good flow of ink. Love them

These are great brush pens to add shade and depth to pen and ink sketches. I’m really impressed that the greys are consistent when they are applied, building up a solid block of tone. There is a chisel nib at one end and a pointed nib at the other, so a choice of effects are possible. Excellent product.

I bought these some time ago, but only got to try them today. Unfortunately, the very first marker I selected did not have its lid on properly, and consequently it didn't work because the ink had dried up; then checked the other pens and found another also bone dry because its lid was not secure. Both were the lids for the fine liner end of the marker, and all the other markers when I tried their lids very tightly secured. These are excellent marker pens and are exactly what I wanted, but they are not cheap, and when two of the pens do not work, it is somewhat annoying.

Very good quality - I really like them

These promarkers are highly pigmented, versatile and easy to use. They do not leak and the brush nib allows for fine lines and also thicker brush strokes. Not as juicy as Ohuhu alcohol markers but still a great buy. They are very expensive and I will stick with Ohuhu as they are better value for money.

The markers arrived in a simple cardboard box and the set comprises a range of cool grey tones, as well as a black. The markers are double ended with a bullet tip and a broader chisel tip. They lay down a consistent tone which can be darkened by going over the tone already put down. On thicker paper there is no bleed through but I would expect a noticeable amount on thinner papers. The tones can be blended but only if they are worked before drying, which they do quite quickly on non-marker paper. However on paper that is specifically designed for alcohol markers and allows them to dry at a slightly slower rate they can be blended easily. Ideal for tonal sketches or more developed drawings and also useful for creating tonal thumbnails prior to painting. The only criticism is that the black marker is not a true black but is very slightly lighter than a true black would be.

Amazing buy I was speaking about these today with a friend who has been using a pricey version for some time back now, she has heard of this company but always thought they were inferior to her well known brands ( she normally used the two top price range ones) but had run out of a particular colour. I offered to let her use these and she jumped at the chance to try them so she can tell me how bad that they are compared to hers instead she was stunned at the vibrancy of the colours and of the coverage. Her comments then went to fact she can refill hers I asked how often and was told dependent on the use and or popularity of the colours. When I told her I have had these from 2016 and they are still all the original markers in case she was stunned as she knows I've been using them regularly and have often taken them to my local branch of the salvation army woman's group where they can be used by the women learning various crafts and that I have used them daily when hospitalised for 6 weeks following an operation. I think I have persuaded that they are well worth a try considering the price she paid for the refills. Me well these were originally a purchase made with money received as a Christmas gift so never actually cost me anything. I have been asked to take over the running of the 3 craft groups each with over 45 ( maximum number of people allowed by local legislation) and am hoping that I can get the majority of the others involved in leadership that these are the best options both groups wise and personally my only fear is that they may be so popular that I will need to be replacing on a regular basis now

Lovely colors. They work great! But wait for sales. The price is a bit high for the amount thats in a pack. (I know that they are a good brand but its still better to wait for a sale imo).

Good ones

I really liked these markers, beautiful colours, layer nicely. Will purchase additional colour packs.

Väldigt nöjd med dom, härliga färger, lätta att jobba med, kommer köpa fler.

De nuevo estoy agradecida por la rapidez del paquete y en buen estado también, he pedido de nuevo estos rotuladores porque me encantan lo bien que se mezclan y lo uniforme que queda, al igual k los finecolour k también son muy buenos pero no he pedido mas de estos últimos porque los capuchones no coinciden con el color k luego pintan, pero también son una maravilla.
