The verdict for me is Canson Bristol Paper then! I was looking for the best paper for copic sketch markers since I will be buying a set next year to work on my comics and illustration. Thank you so much for your much needed insight! I grately appreciate! 😁
Ideal paper for alcohol markers is Color Copy by Mondi (uncoated). Super smooth and very nice for gradients.
This is the most comprehensive review I've seen of marker paper. Thank you so much! I had been thinking of trying yupo but considering the cost, I'm glad I saw this first!!
You're welcome! I wanted to test myself so thought I may as well film it for everyone else to get some use from too.
Excellent video! I'm just starting out with markers, and before I invest in expensive paper that might not work for me, I wanted to see how well each one was. This has helped a lot. Thanks!
Thank you! I'm so glad I could be of some help :) Good luck learning to use your markers!
Oooh I'm going shopping for art supplies tomorrow, thank you 😌
The best comparasion of paper on youtube, thank you so much
Interesting results. In my testing I found Strathmore 300 smooth Bristol to come out on top as slightly ahead or equal to Canson Bristol.
The very best I've tried is Strathmore 500 series plate surface, the 11" x 17" (the one with the dinosaur on the front). But it's mad expensive.
Really good video. Short intro, straight to the point and extensive paper review...
Thank you. I was so confused as to which marker papers to buy. Now, I know which one to buy. Loved your video. 👍🏻
I've just started using W&N Brushmarkers and was wondering what their marker paper was like. I think I must be blending wrong because I used Neenah and was disappointed with the result. The other I have used is the Canson Bristol paper. Out of interest also tried my Aurora hot pressed watercolour paper which worked quite well. I think I'll trust your judgement and persevere with the Neenah. Now to and learn how to blend properly!
You should try Canson The Wall, it is a fabulous paper for alcohol markers !
I’ve been looking for a video like this for ages! Thank you so much. Super useful.
Yeah I've found thay bristol smooth has the best balance between blending and minimum bleedthru. I was always hoping for something completely invisible on the opposite side of pages but it seems best for single sheet art pieces rather than in a sketchbook as I'd naively intended 😅
Excellently done and very informative ... it was very helpful for me in choosing the correct paper for my needs ... thanks
i have different options available but this helps me know what to look and test for. thank you!
Thanks for this video but for me the best paper is Canson The Wall 🙂
This was a great review and actually very helpful
Eve!!! Didn't expect to see you here 🤣
@@cazmakesart pahahaaa I don't even remember watching this xD
eve lol even i came to comments to check if this was helpful xd
@@funny.noskin LMAO
Try crescent rendre paper no bleed through at all
Loved this video I use promarkers to make Christmas cards but keep getting bleed through I'l be getting Canson the wall paper in future it don't bleed through thank you
very very helpful! THANKS OMG
I got sucked in because the title says "copic markers" and yet you only use the winsor newton promarkers. I don't know if there would be a difference in the test but you may want to edit the title to indicate you used promarkers and not copics. JMO.
Awesome! now to find them in the US.
Hi, what do you think about Strathmore Bristol vellum paper, to use with Promarkers?
I've done my own test and found (with Olomarkers, Arteza, W&N and Copic) this is the best paper - 400 series, 300 not so much. I plan to test the 500 series but for now 400 is the best. And surprisingly Etchr 100% cotton mixed media sketchbook! The Wall is good BUT with Olomarkers the ink pools on top because those markers are pure liquid inside (no wick/foam to slow the flow), so the ink comes out at a high rate. And it absolutely does NOT bleed through. This is the only paper I've used that looks good, is bright white and actually does what it claims. You can use both sides with heavy layering.
@@rebekah1362Thank you so much for the detailed info! I've been looking forever for something absolutely bleed through where I could use both sides of the paper. I wish they had that paper in a sketchbook format. If you have any other paper/sketchbook recommendations, I'd love to know!
Hello just the video i was searching for☺my sharpies get a good workout trying to draw caricatures with minimal lines. Nine thumbnails first in graphite. Then sharpies on clean drawing paper with scrap paper under the drawing paper in my sketchbook. But Michael's Art Store is Artist's heaven. Or switch to digital ? We tested acrylic paints in Art Design class. Dollarstore type to expensive Liquitex brands.
Anyway thank you for doing the hard work for us👍✌
Hi just wondering why 220 gsm paper at 8:32 was not bleed through, but higher gsm like 270 gsm is getting bleed through why that happend ? Can you help me which gsm is the best to stop the bleed through when using markers ??
@masonvu718 So this is a super late answer but I've found that it's more to do with the paper composition. Things like the texture and coatings seem to be the main factors. I think it's why the Copic marker paper holds up so well at only 70gsm.
very helpful reviews! would you mind sharing the link for colemans craft warehouse card? I couldn't see it online...
For the canson Bristol one, is it the smooth or the other one?
It's smooth.
@@EmsArtStudio hey I just wanna ask you this would normal sketch paper be good for winsor and Newton markers?
Is it thin enough to put through a printer or possibly trace?
Are any of these thin enough to put through a printer or trace? I’m new to this and coloring books are getting OLD!
I feel the very imperfect approach to blending (not having the brush nib too) might have butchered results on some papers 😔
Canson Bristol sucks up so much marker juice, similar to watercolour paper(Big no no for full marker drawings people)
Ideal paper for alcohol markers is Color Copy by Mondi (uncoated). Super smooth and very nice for gradients.
