Your English is good😄
matahari natal Thank you very much!!
How funny, I’m learning Japanese: わたし は あめりかじん です (sorry if I messed up on anything)
This is a nice and very wholesome exchange. Welcome to the channel!
ちび - You’re English is pretty excellent! The only thing is the word “have” should be “has”, and that is because “has” is used with the pronouns she, he and it (or a name of something), and “have” is used with the pronouns you, they, we and I (or multiple names of things).
When ya gurl whips out the dark nails for tips, you know they’re serious

I just got my posca markers today and they are just BEAUTIFUL, these are my new favorite markers ever
This video changed the game for me. Already loved the markers…they are even better when used correctly 🤯

The brush is really hard to use so you kinda have to do that to get much colour
All artsy kids these days are begging for Copics
I just want some Posca pens

Candy Cake I want both :P I have some copics, but I don’t use them a whole lot so rip

Candy Cake me too! Like 12 copics costs 64 dollars
Thank you so much, Kasey! Just got Posca Markers for Christmas and I’ve had this video in my watch later for a while.
Pulling out the nib is is a great tip thank you! I pulled mine out, blew through it and it started working again right away!
Honestly life saver 😃🤙
This was really helpful! Can't wait to hear the Posca Princess's advanced tips! I know they'll be great!

“Tin tips for Posca pins”. Accents are so interesting. My Australian accent probably sounds weird.
Nigel Hill she even says “exPINsive” 7:37
Aussie😂😂😁
Not all of us pronounce “pens” like “pins”
"Cutaloge"
My New Zealand accent probably sounds weird.
Great information!!! I was just introduced to Posca pens and purchased one through Amazon to try on a project of mine. This video helped me to understand the pen, and to avoid unwanted issues. Thanks!
Just bought posca and needed this thank you so much
Have you ever decorated rocks with them? In America there's a thing called "kindness rocks" where you hide positive painted rocks around your town and I heard these are great for them.❤️
PS: I'm so happy some people started making these/ found out about them, they're so much fun and exciting to find. I am a stereotype now yeah!
Awww that's such a sweet gesture ❤️
Oooh i heard of that my mom told me and i heard people hide them in my town
Sadly people don't hide them in my city, but they're very common in Virginia where I used to live
They also do that in England! And with post-it-notes :) their instagram is called @projectsunshinesmiles
@@pixiangs3040 do they do that in Uk burton
Bold of you to assume I didn't click because "what are these giant Blendy Pens doing in my recommended"

Thank you so much I was looking for detections for posco pen and never give up you do very good stuff in each vid
Wow this colorful markers are so amazing 🤩😃😁😸😺🙀🤩🤔🥰👋😀😁😃😆😄😍🥰😘😝😋🥳🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I don't actually wanna use them... I just like your videos.
ahaha me too
i do wanna use em is that...weird??;-;
@@gray4061 nah just rare
Kaede Sakura same😂😂😂
Im here just in case if i need these
So weird, I’m from Italy and these were like the best thing ever to have as a kid. Like if I behaved well of something I would get to choose one from the huge dispenser at the store and it was SO COOL, everyone wanted them... and I’m talking early 2000s. These have been around forever for me, so weird that the youtube artist community seems to only have found out about them around now.
I was looking for an Italian comment for this exact reason! POSCAs have always been pretty common here, they're in every stationery shop, so I was weirded out as well to find out they're just now becoming a trend in other states
I'm from Greece it's the same here especially when I was a teenager, we were colouring our school desks and walls.
Im italian too and..yeah its very weird
@@PhotEd89 I would do this but my school fines the kids who graffitis the school :/
I'm spanish and they were very common here too. When I was a teenager most kids used them to start with graffiti xD
Thanks so much. I am a beginner and this video has cleared all my doubts
Thanks for the video! My son loves these color pen so much!
Little tip to remember right when you buy them online:
Just pump it once. I’ve wasted so much ink on accident because I didn’t know
You walked so we could run. Thank you because my other markers needed to be pumped multiple times so i would have done the same for posca. Thank you so much.
i have lots of kids locked in my basement any time !
wonder I’m sorry p a r d o n

wonder oh shit I did not see that, the explanation mark made it seem like they were enthusiastically describing people they had in their basement 🤣
One of the first paint pens I bought was a knock off brand from Hobby Lobby. The nib fell out and when I tried to stick it back in the spring made it shoot across the living room.
Still haven’t found it.
Sarah Brooks same, mine was like a dollar each, and it was SO transparent. Never again lolol
I bought some paint pens from daiso, 1.50 each, and they were pretty fantastic. The lower quality was pretty obvious when I started using posca pens, but it didn’t minimize how much it taught me about using paint markers. The biggest downside was the smell, it was pretty strong and the caps would sometimes get glued on with the dried paint. But, if you wanted to give paint markers another try, I’d recommend those.
I bought some knock off paint pens and they were terrible! I’m really hoping to get some poscas soon, because I’ve seen so many good reviews!
Lmao
@@dylandeguzman9229 p
Thank you! I just got a some poses pens and this helped me a lot.
Thoroughly enjoyable and informative video! Thank you so much
Oh. In fact, in France, all art stores are selling Posca. That's a basic here. I use them for years now haha i'm so surprised!
Oh wow !
Englands had them since before i was at college 10 years ago 😬
They got a massive rebrand because they got popular in the graffiti scene
In Italy is easy find them too!
Not in the netherlands 😭
*This video is my go-to, if I ever buy myself some Posca Pens*
Omg it's TJ, I love your videos!
I have them on a list of things I want from amazon. :)
I love your vids bro!
So great and clarifying Video!, all my questions are answered, thanks!
this is so hard to watch because it sounds exactly like you're saying "paska" which means shit in finnish and now i can't unhear it
shit pens?? dude that's the best
Yeah that’s pretty amazing

Lol In my language ( hindi ) "paska" means nearby thing

Thank you for the tips! I really needed this because I’m getting posca markers today!
I wonder if you could draw snacks inspired by pokemons? You could invent them or make some similar to the ones that already exist.
Bogdan Chircea OMG YES!
When you pulled out all the Posca’s.....
Me: *JAW DROPS*
Same😅
I don’t have Posca but I’m getting them on Thursday and I pretty understand this. Thanks for the tips!
Well done. very helpful and to the point vid. Love from Europe 💞

I order posca markers and it’s gonna be here in Friday and I love posca they smooth and satisfying
I love my white Posca pen, and use it like whiteout, constantly. Whiteout yellows, and posca does not ^-^
@@summergood7851 I would love to help, but I don't really know what you are trying to say, could you please be more specific?
paranoiaprincess I’ve never tried them but I also imagine that if you use it as whiteout then it’ll also keep the surface matte or rougher so you can draw over it, unlike whiteout which makes it glossy
I’m really sneaky and found out that my parents bought me posca pens for Christmas!! I’m so excited omg omg omg
Pinkinkcat Master you jus spoiled ur surprise, if you are cheating your are cheating on yourself
Pinkinkcat Master plot twist there just sharpies

Haha, you celebrate Christmas?

Thanks for showing the tip sizes!!
Thanks I'm getting this on Thursday
Here in Europe Posca pens are pretty popular! Back in high school, all my artsy friends were super fond of them because you can draw on almost anything with them (notebooks, binders, pencil cases, desks...) and they come in a lot of fun colours. And the fact that they're not cheap made them really treasured possessions.
In Italy, you find uniposca EVERYWHERE.
Exactly
Same in France lmao
Yeah because of graffiti
No c'è ora mi dici dove lì posso trovare
WTF I'VE NEVER SEEN THEM??? i've seen copics tho... (i have one but i don't like them at all aaaa)
Thanks for the tips love your content!❤😊❤
Thank you so much this is so helpful
I’ve discovered that Bristol paper (I use the strathmore brand) works well with Posca pens. I’ve noticed little to no pilling at all!
Canvas is pretty good.
I'm a graffiti artist and I've been using those pens for many years and I do really like them. The only other paint pen that competes is the Molotow 1 for all acrylic paint pens. They offer a different color palette then the posca and they come in several different nib sizes and they offer interchangeable nibs.
There's 4-5 comparable western brands if you can live with 20-30 color sets. But yea in the 50+ color set it's just Posca and Molotow. And If you like hard plastic tips like the crossover tips then almost any other brand/line is better than one4alls.
I been using these along with spray paint. Great markers 👍
I have just tried POSCA on Daler Rowney linen textured surface paper for acrylics. Works beautifully. No pilling at all.
So glad to hear you talk about the rough tips! I’ve ALWAYS found my POSCA pens to be a little rough on the paper and I try to use them lightly and carefully to avoid pulling. I always assumed I had a faulty batch so it’s good to hear that this is just how they are... 🤷♂️
Hi
i love how its wrapped in plastic. it means that when they display them at shops nobody can open the lids and make them dry out or waste the ink. ans also you will know which pens have been opened. i love it
it contributes to so much plastic waste:-( they could probably use a paper safety seal
@@pinkalligator6302 yea they could but it wouldn't be as strong
It’s very helpful
i know I am very late to comment but I work at a craft store people still open them all the time.
@@pinkalligator6302 Oml stop, sometimes plastic is necessary, don't cry over 2 grams of plastic lmao.
they are also great as an alternative for paint on the bedroom wall where I found these cute little stencils used, acrylic paint. It took far too like for it to dry so I got these pets and my room looks absolutely amazing. I use that to decorate my BTS wall xxxxx I would highly recommend them xxxxx 💜💜💜💜
Omg i love her drawing!
Never heard of a Posca pen until now...
......
_Now I want one_

How do you do italics
just bought my first pack of poscas! i only had two of them and fell in love
i feel digitally influenced.
I just bought my first pack today!! They arrive on sunday! How are they?
I just bought a new posca pen and I just wanted t see how to use them.
Thanks! The video was really helpful 😊
I was finally able to get some pens today, I'm really excited to try them outso thanks for the tips! >:)
Thank you so much for your tips.
This brings back good memories. Uni Posca’s were very popular in the Netherlands. Early nineties all cool kids at my highschool had these for graffiti tagging. I started using Uni Posca’s myself when i was studying architecture and always had much success using them for presentation drawings on coloured paper. I still have some pens lying around. Will look for them and introduce them to my kids :)
Been using posca pens for about 35yrs they are much more popular in Europe. Very easy to get in UK. Got a new 12 pack about a month ago at The Range. Great for graff. And they're all in English. Great video. Thanks.
When I saw the title I was expecting a runthrough of different sized and shaped tips on the pens!
I now learned a new word, "Nibs" :D
Great vid!
Wow this was helpful! thank you so much!
I found my posca pens at my local Michael’s store and was able to use the 40% off coupon ! Very happy gal over here 😁
OH HECK YES
I do a lot of graffiti, and yes. Poscas still are nearly everyone’s favorite. Whether it be work on paper, or tags on signs, Poscas are the go to.
Yeah, I love doing handstyles with the huge chisel tip ones. I also put a bit of clear coat on posca tags since they’re water based, just helps it last longer
LOVE my Posca Pens. I use them in my card making and Zentangle. All I use them with is paper/card stock.
As a beginner wit poscas this was a very helpful video.
Ah, sweet memories of the time when the world was still normal and you could just walk into a store without worrying about getting sick.

@Ana Melendrez come to Tennessee not a single person here wears a mask and that’s why we have the highest death rate 😃
@Ana Banana here in sweden it’s the opposite.. i really want to wear a mask but everyone treats me like an alien for it.. hopefully I won’t get covid again, because pneumonia and coughing blood/ not being able to breathe and waking up with the feeling of suffocating wasn’t exactly fun.. 😕
A tip from me. When you shake your posca pen keep the cap on. I learnd this from experiance. My arms and my room have stains now.🖌🖊
Sorry if i spelld something wrong😔
Yep, my table just got redecorated

@@KaseyTheGolden Thank you! I'm sure I will. I wanted to ask..do you ever prime the surface you're working on before you use them? I work a lot on wood panels and wondered if I'd have to add anything (like gesso) before using the Posca pens

The most helpfulness guide for Posca pens
THE QUALITY IS REALLY GOOD!!!
I remember my Japanese friend getting some for me when she went back to Tokyo for a visit. I had no idea they existed before that, lol. Now I know how amazing they are and very grateful for them
You're amazing Kasey, I love your energy and your art❤️❤️❤️😊
Great video - thanks for sharing 😁
Looks like fun. I want to try them.
I haven't used posca pens on bristol paper, but I would recommend trying it. It might pill up less than on watercolor paper; it is specifically made for markers so it is extremely smooth and fairly thick.
I use Bristol, and your intuition is correct. It’s awesome for Posca…but it still pills up. I do like it, though.
When this video came out, I watched it and added posca pens to my wish list. I just bought them (finally!) and I’m happy to re-watch the video and figure these cool pens out!
I got this marker and I'm excited to try this
thank you for helping me how to use it.
Thank you so much for this! I literally just got three pretty colours of POSCA pens today and this really helped because I was a bit clueless when I tried this on the paper and it started tearing it up a tiny bit, so thank you!
A Posca pen project for fun that looks amazing:I use the amazing Posca pens primarily for mixed media, mostly abstract paintings on canvas. She was saying at the end if you push the nib down too hard, the paint will stream out (or something to that effect). That feature is built into the Posca pens on purpose. The nibs retract perfectly back into the pens housing if you push down on the nib. What I do is have my canvas on a 45 to 90 degree angle. I push down on the nib and it releases streams of acrylic paint (that is what Poscas color is made of) that drip brilliantly down your canvas or paper.. If you do it a number of times, depending on what effect you are going for, you can use one color, or twenty if you like. It makes a better effect than the 'drip method' with acrylic pens and water. It can use up a lot of the Posca markers paint, so can be rather expensive. A lot of people do the rain effect. This is where you draw or paint, or use Posca markers to draw a person holding an umbrella. Push down on the nib of the marker with canvas or paper on a board at around a 75% angle. Use one color, or 20 (large pen). Have the person and their umbrella taped off with masking tape. You can pause, then start flow again a few times to look more like real rain (from Mars?). Fill paper with rain. Do at an angle as well to give a wind effect. Let dry, frame, hang in your child's bedroom.
That so much
That was great! Thanks!
Target has these 25% off currently. That's what brought me to your video. Thanks for all the advice. I can't wait to get some for my daughter!!
I just got posca pens so this is super helpful thank you!!
I love this video already!!!
Thank you so much, it really helps a lot !
I’m a bit late to the posca party but I now really want to try them out properly. I use them for line art but have never tried to create a full piece. I’m surprised you didn’t mention gesso as an option, because I’ve heard a lot of people use that 🤔
Thanks, great info for a newbie :)

Extra tip if you fly with your activated Posca Pens: pressure can build up in the pen and cause uncontrolled paint flow. To fix it, hold pen vertically, nib up, and push it against something sturdy to release pressure.
Thanks for sharing tips
Very informative!
I don't know if someone already said this but posca pen are amazing on oil painting paper such as "Figueras" by canson (?) or "tela" by Fabriano. Those paper have some kind of gesso on it and the pen slides much better. Also the paint isn't absorbed right away so they can blend beautifully. Which probably means that's you can use a transparent/white gesso on many paper to make it work in the same way.
Also the "Uni person" (French: représentant commercial) that comes to the shop I work at, advise to store all of them horizontally (that's why there are presented that way) so that the pigment doesn't make a big block at the bottom of the marker and it's easier to disperse it in the medium each time you want to use it.
Other thing that he said (haven't watch the entire video yet): if the nib is dried you can let it sit in water for a night and then it's reusable.
THis is really helpful, thank you!
do posca art on other surfaces please! 🙏🏼
She did one on wood
Yeah they work on everything I’ve tried
