You can vary the line weights, they don't have to be one unvarying size. Different pressures and speeds will help

Super useful, thanks a lot!! I also doodle on top of watercolour and acrylic paintings. I've got a white 1M which works well but is sometimes a bit thick, so I was wondering if the 1MR would work on top of watercolour or acrylic paint...?

@nightfallnoir Год назад

Thank you so much, I was searching for this soooo long and this is endlessly helpful! I was thinking, what is the MAIN difference between the small bullet tip and the pin tip? Meaning 0.7 ~ 1 mm and 0.7?

Which one do you recommend when gonna get a 24x36 poster signed to make sure the autograph can still pop out without being thin. I’m thinking 5m

@craftycalon 3 года назад

Very helpful thank you. Do you need to seal these of drawing on shoes for example?

@zuheyr1 2 года назад

Thank you. The problem is you never know when it runs out of paint, right? So in the middle of a work you may be stuck. Also if you forget the cap, it dries solid and unusable?

@gillianmac4987 2 года назад

can you varnish over posca pens without them running I have a sculture to try doing that will be outdoors and am using acrylic then posca pen then varnish:) just wondering it they would work or i ahve to try something else:)

@venkiappireddy Месяц назад

Can we pump/ press the tip of 7m???

@TheBhup 5 лет назад

What size would you recommend to get autographs on posters? I've got a glossy photo paper poster and normal sharpies smear and can come off. So looking at a Posca and either the 5M or 3M . Would I be able to let it dry and roll up my poster? No flaking when dry or smearing?

@whatisthis__95 4 года назад

They are quite flexible once dried, so no flaking should occur. Probably the 5M would work best, but the 3M is nice also

@aliceohlstenius1505 3 года назад

What would be best for everything in general but I would still like to be able to write with it nothing too thin either

@uniballuk 3 года назад

You should probably plump for a 3m - great for colour coverage and good for writing.

@Nadi1460 9 месяцев назад

Very helpful! Which type of paper works best for Posca?

@uniballuk 9 месяцев назад

Great question! When using POSCA markers, it's important to choose the right paper to achieve the best results. For the best experience with POSCA markers, we recommend using a smooth, heavyweight paper or cardstock. This type of paper allows the markers to glide smoothly and minimizes any bleeding or feathering of the ink. You can also try using specific art papers designed for markers or illustration boards, which are often coated to prevent ink from soaking in too quickly. This helps to maintain vibrant colours and sharp lines. Experimenting with different papers is a good way to find what works best for your specific project and style, so don't be afraid to try a few options and see which one suits your needs. Happy creating!

@Big-Chungus21 Год назад

Are the 1mrs good for stippling? Recently been absolutely obsessed with stippling and pointilism and ive wanted to work with colour for the longest time. Problem is, i find myself upset with the limited amount of choices you can get colour-wise. Is the mark of the 1mr relatively consistent, similar to fineliner pens? Ive used technical pens for the longest time which are insanely precise, but honestly at the scale i work at thats not entirely necessary. Bonus if anyone can provide me an example of stippling / pointilism with the 1mr. 😅

@UnderTheMoon3 Год назад

Yes , you can get tiny dots and if you press a lil bit hard you can get slightly bigger dot it’s still tiny tho but it’s got for variation , as for examples I don’t have any but you can use them like ink pens they are just colored paint instead of black ink

@hunna1072 4 года назад

What would be best for customizing for example a shoe or water bottle. Would it be the 1.8 - 2.5?

@uniballuk 4 года назад

Either will be fine.

@dichterdichter3593 3 года назад

They are great, nothing to mock about. Buuuut there is another brand that has much more colours and that sells refills. But Posca does what it promises and it does it good.

@NotAnotherKuromi 2 года назад

What is the other brand which has more colours?

@beepboop9976 4 года назад

If I use the 1M, would I be able to write text with it?

@ThomasStudiosYT 4 года назад

Yes, the 1m is essentially a fineliner (like an ultrafine sharpie)

@JR-kc3rc 3 года назад

are they used for paper only?

@NotAnotherKuromi 2 года назад

No they are acrylic paint, so you can use them on a variety of surfaces including cardboard, wood, glass etc.

@uniballuk 3 года назад

No, they are water-based.

@Pilikata_032 Год назад

Love your video but just wanted to say that only the regular posca markers are water based. The uni ones your are using are oil based.

@uniballuk Год назад

Hi there! All uni POSCA Paint Markers use water-based pigment ink, unlike the uni-ball Paint Markers (not featured in this video) which are oil based. Hope this helps (:

@rosey9509 3 года назад

@@fri0 Pleasure to help you😊. Make sure it is smooth rather than rough. The paper may scrape a little because they are actually made to work on surfaces like wood cardboard metal or plastic but you can still use on paper.
