I was thinking of putting 4 stars for this item, but there are no other caricature/cartooning markers out now that are as good so I had to go with 5.

The "copic sketch markers" are alcohol based and don't give off any horrible chemical smell like marker pro caricature markers. They don't bleed and typically won't show up on your second sheet.Of course, getting either fine or thick lines is important for the artform of caricature, and the copic sketch marker had replaceable nibs to achieve that almost impossible feat to a degree better than any marker out there, besides the old markettes which have disappeared from existence. Dixon still makes "markette" markers that are the same as the old except for one decisive factor; the nibs they use now are not as good. For this reason copic markers have taken their place as the best.
