Hey Artnerds! Today we're taking a look at the Shuttle Art alcohol markers!

Artnerd Alli loaned me her set to review! Take a moment to check out her awesome fantasy and DnD inspired art on Instagram! You'll find a link in the description below. This review was made possible thanks to the generosity of Alli and my Artnerds on Patreon- you can join the Artnerd community at patreon.com/nattosoup and help make honest reviews like this possible!

This set was borrowed and has been moved to a more convenient marker pouch, so I can't speak much on the original packaging.

88 Colors plus Colorless Blender- $41.99 on Amazon: https://amzn.to/2OsKTOM- didn't seem to come with a case
51 Color set with Colorless Blender- $26.99 on Amazon: https://amzn.to/2CSQvws- seems to come with a carrying case-- this seems to use a different cap style though?
121 Colors- $57.00 on Amazon, with case: https://amzn.to/37rFK2m

Markers:

Same body as the Milo Art and Milo PRO markers.

Cheaper alcohol marker from Amazon, probably comparable to the Arrtx alcohol markers.

Bullet tip, chisel tip
Color name and family on color coded caps
Nubs on the caps for easier removal
Caps post
Strong overly sweet alcohol marker scent immediately upon uncapping- fumes may be too strong for those with sensitive noses, those prone to migraines, or those who get nausea.
Triangular body

Compared to other markers:

Not refillable
Prismacolor
Shuttle Art
Winsor and Newton pro marker

Refillable:
Copic Sketch
Copic Ciao
Copic Original

The Colors:

A LOT of this range is devoted to grayscales
Cool Grey
Blue Grey
Warm Grey
Green Grey


No colorless blender

Some pastels among the pinks, but not many in other colors
CG 0.5 and WG 0.5 could maybe be used as blenders?

Circle test:
Bullet tip makes horrible screeching noise

These are somewhat bleedy, and both nibs give a lot of audible feedback, but they blend well color into color

Ink seems to stay wet for a long time

Alcohol Marker Compatibility Test
Reactive to Artist Loft Blender, Copic blender, and Rubbing alcohol. Would try it with the Milo Pro marker, but I've loaned that out--but I'm betting it'd react to that too

Seem to be really blendy, easy to get nice blended transitions with the chisel tips.

Please note: Fieldtest/tutorial will be coming up- stay tuned for that!

Verdict:

By now yall should know I'm pretty biased towards brush tipped alcohol markers- but not every artist feels this way. So of course, if you're not a brush marker user, you should consider alternate reviews before making your purchase.

Like these markers decently well- would be great if you already have a few markers you like, and want to expand your collection fast. The color range is fun and vibrant, and certainly inspiring, and a young anime/manga fan would really enjoy this set. I'm looking forward to putting these to the Nattosoup Fieldtest and learning the ins and outs of these markers.

Thanks once again to Alli, who allowed me to borrow these markers so I could review them!
