I’m actually looking for a video about the cool grey 003 multiliner. You showed it, but I’d love to know what color it is. There is no shop nearby to visit and try it out. But I can’t find a video about it anywhere, unfortunately. Can you show it please? Much thanks!
Hello all! Has anyone tried to refill the cartridge with ink rather than buy a new one? Did it work? What type of ink did you use? I’m thinking of buying the Copic Multiliner SP and then when the cartridge dries out, refill it with pigmented technical pen ink.
I have had the SP's for three years now. Total trash, reason being the refills suck and are designed to be a money pit. I have begun doing physical research to see what ink will work to refill the marker chambers instead of throwing hard earned cash at Copic. Sorry about the salty sounding comment but when you are burning through simple black line work and refilling these markers like changing underwear people need to know. Too many artists promote this garbage. The nibs too are another joke, it you look closely and then under a microscope they look like fishing line. This poor construction has me going back to my koh i noor and mu rotrings at least those last awhile before refilling them. And the tips are metal not fishing line!
Nice comment and it's always good to hear different opinions. It would be nice to know what ink you could refill them with too. I have used the same SPs on a couple hundred drawings without refilling them so I'd assume we use different paper which absorbs ink in different ways. I haven't looked at the nibs under a microscope but do really love the way the ink flows and sits in the paper as opposed to other brands. Again, I have had a hard time wearing the nibs out as well. The Rotring Isographs sound amazing, I'd also love to try those one day. Cheers
@@mattheathart I use Bristol board and the Professional plate smooth surface Bristol paper mostly. I can get maybe six to eight semi big drawings before I start to get issues with ink or the tip. I draw with a light touch because of using rot ring and koh i noor technical pens. Funny I got this comment the same time I just got new tips and ink again LOL. I use the .03 and the point 0.05 pens a lot because of the detail work I like in my drawings so those two to three smaller sizes go all the time vs the big diameter SP markers. I do love one thing, the waterproof feature they offer. As for the ink I am going to try and refill a cartridge with the Faber Castell carbon ink because it doesn't seem as viscous as using india ink which I plan to try both on two of the old refills I got and see if this is feasible to renew them and stop the purchasing refill madness. I will let you know how the testing goes.
@@EvilMP5 I'd like to learn how you refill the cartridge. I love the Rotring Isograph but sometimes need something with a felt tip when I work with watercolor paper, which is not great to use with a metal tip. I bought one of these in the hopes that i could be eco, but the replacing the plastic cartridge each time seems only nominally better.
