Ohuhu Brush Markers vs Copic Brush Markers - Marker Review

[@cheezychad8474]

I like the vibrancy of the Ohuhu better but the smoothness and the even color on the copic. If only they would do a collab...

[@lela.the.artist]

A collab would be super interesting! Hehe

[@iseewaterbugs9147]

If yet collabed so would the prices

[@nuggetboi2043]

There are vibrant copic markers just like ohuhu.

[@ashleymarie6715]

A cohuhu

[@ashleyclapton4376]

yea and the prices in the middle at 2-4 $

[@sarahisapotato1289]

In my opinion, the copics are better but the ohuhu are probably the best substitute for copics if you are on a budget or if you are a beginner.

[@lela.the.artist]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and thanks for watching!! =)

[@robnuut]

I agree, I’m getting a 48 pack of Ohuhu and I’m so excited because of how good they are

[@bellavandermeij5089]

I agree

[@marttamartta.]

I think the same! I still buy Copics, even tho I am a beginner.. I haven't seen Ohuhu-markers in any store near, and that's exactly why I buy Copics.

[@himekawa3833]

@@marttamartta. honestly I love abroad and copic are more accessible where I live so I'm a bit ashamed thye dont sell them more in store outside of the us

[@TheLadyStoryteller]

If you want an even coat of ink for your background, try using the the chisel tip. It has a better ink flow and takes more time to dry, so you can make multiple layers until it looks smooth.

[@lela.the.artist]

Sweet! Thanks for letting me know! And thanks for watching!! =)

[@TheLadyStoryteller]

Halalela Art No problem! ❤️

[@cole7529]

actually on master markers the chisel tends to be drier, if using master markers use the brush to fill in sections ;)

[@LinglingStudios]

Thanks! I know I bit about it but Not lots.

[@DumBistachio]

Tbh I like the ohuhu side wayy more, but that's bcuz I prefer vibrancy over dullness lol Also if you want more even tones then use the broad tip, it spreads the ink more evenly than the brush nib

[@lela.the.artist]

Ah, that makes sense, thank you!! And thanks for watching!

[@mousewith2es196]

Same

[@najuan123]

iLuvPandas Smartz same

[@moirarusaw9567]

if you go in the same direction (diagonal, horizontal, vertical) it will also be more smooth, if not completely it might look a bit more organized, and the more saturation you can get with the ink the better.

[@zachhomolka3486]

I am dying to get Ohuhu brush markers!!! I hope it’s worth it!

[@Penguins459]

[@rylee93]

I just ordered them!! They are in stock in the USA as far as I know.

[@laraxlyra]

I just got mine yesterday and they are sooooo good!

[@dindadragn7289]

I remember asking my dad for copic markers when I was like 6. I obviously didn’t know much about them, I just knew that they were the markers that all of the artists I watched used. He got me copic liners and I got so mad at him... (Now I’m just happy he tried)

[@marttamartta.]

Haha

[@jesstolley7193]

The ohuhu's definitely look lovely. I notice a better contrast int he shades with the copics on her cheeks, particularly. I think the shapes are coming out better, due to not all the colors being so saturated.

[@JulesJuno737]

it seems like for starting out it might be a cool idea to get ohuhu then fill in with copics/replace as you go and they dry out? That's what I'm doing to not invest overly in the medium right off the bat. The question then is - do ohuhu/finecolor/touchnew play nice and blend well with copics?

[@lela.the.artist]

@Jess Tolley yea I definitely felt the same way. Ohuhus can be a little too overpowering and not contrast well enough

[@lela.the.artist]

@Jules Juno that's a great idea. I know a few others commented on previous videos saying they do the same. I havent tried Ohuhus blending with Copics but I did get a comment a while back saying they didnt seem to mix well. I'd have to try myself and see.

[@theMadMarsz]

The drawing is really cute .. I know this is a comparison video but the drawing is really nice 🥰

[@lela.the.artist]

Thank you!!! I really try to make sure my colors match as close as possible so that the end piece looks somewhat seamless. Thanks for watching! =)

[@Yami_doodles]

Personally I _still_ Prefer the Copic because Of its smoothness and how incredibly easy it is to blend them. However, I do think the Ohuhu Side is a very close Second.

[@lela.the.artist]

I do agree about the smoothness and how easy it is to blend. The blending has always amazed me in Copic!

[@Yami_doodles]

Halalela Art Agreed! When I used Copic for the first time I was so amazed by how Easy Blending came! Not to mention Refills are also a huge benefit.

[@nicolewolfcry7408]

I absolutely loved this one. I prefer The Ohuhu side more but to me it looks like shes standing in a shadow adn one side is in the light and the other is in gentle shadows. Beautiful.

[@lela.the.artist]

Thank you so much for watching! And yea it does look like shadow! Hehe

[@0xfvl]

I think ohuhu were soo right when you were sponsored to test their markers oh there channel

[@lela.the.artist]

Oh wow that means a lot to me! Thank you so much for thinking so! And thank you for always watching!!

[@inquiri6399]

For anyone wondering, the Ohuhu brush marker larger packs are coming out October and November. October will have the medium packs and November will have the 100+ packs. I’m definitely getting the big boi pack in November. I looove the Ohuhu brush set I have now (48 pack). But they need lighter shades. Which I believe they already have in the bullet nib sets.

[@lenavm]

I seriously LOVE this character! She looks so badass and her colour scheme is amazing!

[@melonandwaffle4980]

I personally like the dullness of the copics. I've always been for the natural look of copics and how much you can do with only a few markers. But the ohuhus look very nice and I might invest in them one day

[@lela.the.artist]

I definitely agree! If only Ohuhu had pastel colors! Hehe thanks for watching!!

[@shantel9379]

Yeeeeth!! My budget still prefers the Ohuhus over $6 copics either way!😂

[@sodiumdianna6857]

SAME

[@lela.the.artist]

I feel that lol. When my rosy pink color ran out on the copic side during the video, I was agonizing a little at the thought of having to go to the store and purchase a new one. Lol thanks for watching! =)

[@sodiumdianna6857]

@@lela.the.artist but question, is it easier or better to buy the refill or the whole marker? Ive heard that the refills are way more expensive than the actual marker

[@shantel9379]

@Dayanah Solivan the refills are more expensive, but you get like 8 times more use out of it because there is more product. But it’s just the ink itself, not the nibs. Hope this helped!

[@earthtoashlyn]

Shantel j but the refills are only about $6 which is cheaper than the copic sketch marker

[@thecommentmaster6002]

The comparison we've been waiting for 😁

[@lela.the.artist]

Yes! The comparison I've been wanting to do since Ohuhu first announced them! Thanks for watching!!! =)

[@TheWoolyWolf]

i love these comparison videos :) they show the differences between expensive and cheap markers to generally give us an idea if the cheaper alternative is worth checking out

[@gabby048]

Try doing more straight diagonal lines but quickly because when doing circles you are going over the Same spot two or three times making it appear darker

[@lela.the.artist]

That makes sense. Thank you for sharing !! And thanks for watching!

[@lela.the.artist]

Hehe, thanks for watching A Roman! =)

[@SheepsDraw]

I have to say, i'm impressed with the ohuhu but i still like the Copic side more. I'm not a huge fan of the vibrancy in the ohuhu, but i think it's definitely a good Start for every beginner. I'm also gonna buy the new set just because i always feel so bad if i use my copics too much Also your art is amazing !♡

[@gizem-ky5ec]

amazing drawing as always. i personally don't think that in this background the splotchynes is a bad thing. it looks like "smoke" or "cloudy" if you know what I mean. nice contrast between the sharp and clean even colouring. ❤ I think someone discribed the ohuhu brush nibs more like felt and the copics more like foam. what do you think about that ?

[@lela.the.artist]

I thought that too. The addition of the white dot stars I did I feel helped out a bit. As far as the tips go, I think I'd agree with that too. It's hard to know though as Ohuhu doesn't list exactly what the tip is actually made out of. Or at least, I don't think it's listed anywhere. I could be wrong though lol! Thanks for watching! =)

[@muhammad5978]

I think ur the first one to review them My Ohuhu brush markers just arrived at my house in Norway but I’m currently at London for vacation and I can’t wait to get home and use them, they are my first alcohol based markers ( I bought the 100 pack cuz why not ) And I’m very exited to excitement

[@candypop3957]

There is a hair On your screen no.... Drawing wiff waffles did it first and Lucidneema did it second

[@lela.the.artist]

It's all good, I'm just really excited so many of us KZbin artists got to make our review of these back to back. I feel it definitely helps the art community out by watching all of our different opinions and all our different art that we make with them! =) thanks for watching all!

[@shart6364]

i love your art style it’s so cute

[@lela.the.artist]

Aww thank you!! And thanks for watching!!

[@markgoodrum4543]

honestly i prefer the ohuhu markers. Also they have a 72 colour pack for the alcohol based brush nibs. I'm getting those in a few days time. I have used copics before and i do really like them but aside from the massive vibrant colours in ohuhu's that's pretty much the only downfall and even then, i dont find it too much of a problem since i draw alot of anime (alot of one piece) so its not that big a of a deal. That ontop of the no refills like you mentioned. I say in around a years time or so, they will be a fully valid competitor for copics since there's not much wrong with ohuhu's. Anyway, nice review of them. i enjoyed watching the video.

[@Lexouchan]

The refills are a bit more expensive than a sketch but they refill a marker 10+times. So it is really worth it in the long term ! (A shame that not available locally though. In my case I can't even find the sketch locally so I have to shop online anyway). The only difference between the ciao and the sketch are : design of the barrel and caps, amount of ink inside and number of color available. Other than that they perform exactly the same. So I don't think an new comparaison is necessary. One thing that bother me with Ohuhu is the not refillable and not open stock options. I am not someone who buy marker sets, I always bought open stock choosing my colors carefully depending on my taste and needs. But I understand that can be quite daunting and some people might prefer the convenience of it. I think These are good for a first set. To get to know if you like alcohol brush markers or not. And if you do, expand your collection or replace your dead markers with a open stock and reffillable option. I would like to see you compare other reffilable brands to copics (touch twin from shinhan or blick brush markers).

[@lela.the.artist]

Oh, yea the only difference between Copic and Copic ciao are just the looks, but it's definitely fun to do these comparisons, so I enjoy doing the Copic ciao versus also because I have a different color selection with them too. I totally agree with the rest of what you say. I would like to test out the Touch Twin and Blick Brush markers, but it might be a bit before I do because I have so many other brands at the moment. Thank you for watching!! =)

[@bi_saster]

Ohuhu is working on refills and separately sold markers :)

[@salmarahman3693]

I was dying for the ohuhu as copies were way expensive o ordered them today yayyyyy

[@carolineshelton4816]

This was a year ago but they have come out with skin tones and pastels! And you can switch the tips which is nice. You were right about the changes they do

[@nicolemarie011]

To fill in backgrounds I find that moving the marker in a vertical up and down motion fills the paper better, but you have to do it quickly or it will look streaky. It will probably look a little streaky regardless which is why I do another layer to even it out. Using the broad tip fares better for larger areas. I have got some fairly smooth blended backgrounds doing it this way. I have the Ohuhu fine tip/chisel tip set of 80 and I actually really like their markers. I didn't expect to like them as much as I do, definitely a good purchase. I agree that they need to offer some lighter/paler shades. I do want to try the brush markers, but I am going to wait until the larger set of colors come out before I purchase them. Great review, TFS!

[@lela.the.artist]

So I definitely went ahead and did this for my next comparison. It seemed to turn out a better. Still got a bit of streaky-ness but I probably just need to practice more. Thanks for commenting and watching!

[@HotgirlD88]

Phew that Ohuhu vibrancy is gorgeous 😍

[@lela.the.artist]

Yes it is!! Thanks for watching!! =)

[@ZombieMilkshake]

I really like what you did to break up the background, it looks great! Thanks for doing this comparison video. I can't wait to receive my Ohuhu order!

[@doodleyournoodles675]

Yeah I was expecting them to be the same level of good and apparently I think I was correct of course other people can have their own opinion on that

[@lela.the.artist]

Sameee! Lol

[@lindyv.9582]

I stick with the Copics. If I want vibrant colors I layer it up. And I can get the refills everywhere as well.

[@kaitlindoesarts]

Ooh that ink flow test for the Ohuhu markers was soooo satisfying to watch. Also, I haven't watched the whole video yet, but I'm guessing the character in this illustration is based off of Pluto because of the heart earrings. (Pluto had a really cute heart shape on its surface) (edit) Either that, or it's based on Venus, since the planet's named after the Roman goddess of love.

[@florandrade6755]

To get a less splotchy background instead of doing a circular motion which is great for blending I would try to color one direction like horizontally and then coloring vertically I’ve found that works best for backgrounds. I would also suggest using the chisel side instead of the brush for coloring backgrounds or large areas in general.

[@lela.the.artist]

Thank you for sharing! I did that once and ended up with streaky lines lol, but I wonder if it's because I didn't go fast enough lol. Thanks for watching!!

[@florandrade6755]

Halalela Art really?? Huh I usually get streaky lines when I didn’t have enough ink

[@sugarycutie]

to get my colors even i usually use the chisel nib with circular motions until I see that the color won't get any darker. That surely wastes a lot more ink then usual but it works very nicely.

[@lela.the.artist]

That's what I figured. Prior to the Ohuhu Brush markers I used their classic ones and did exactly that. It was more even than this, but not 100% even. Thanks for watching! =)

[@Miyori999]

I have a few copics in grey tones, (because they're pricy I just shade in grey lol), but the ohuhu seems pretty comparable for colors and even blending. Hmm. I like the pinks in the copics but the brown and blues in the ohuhu better. It's a good comparison for the price, definitely!

Could you test out the arteza fineliners or the arteza gouache?? Wants to buy them, but don’t know if it’s worth it😅 +to get a smoother background you can use the chisel nib, take one layer vertical, then one layer horizontal❤️

[@insaneangelart]

I love the Ohuhu side much more for the color of her hair and skin tone combo. Even though I love the muted skin tone of copics, honestly I've been dissappointed with the ones I've gotten. I have a very limited selection of the copics as well, and I've found a lot of them have dried up even though I made sure the cap is on properly. I don't know why so many have done this, whether it's a fault in the marker's design or somehow my doing. Compared to my prismacolor markers, I've had those last for years and still be good to use. I tend to suppliment my alcohol marker style with a touch of colored pencil now and then to get more even coloring, especially on backgrounds. I don't think that the patchy spots where your colored in look bad since you're doing a space-themed piece. It gives it a bit of an interesting texture behind the star pattern. :)

I personally love the vibrancy of the Ohuhu's, but I do love that Copics have more pastel colors. Each side has their pros. I personally have no experience with copics, and limited experience with the classic Ohuhu's, and a few Windsor and Newton brush markers. In that experience I will say the chisel tip seems to be better for large area's and even coverage. It isn't perfect but that is the best method I have found.

[@jxsephiine2815]

tbh i kinda like the spotchiness xD imo its just idk.. it has a texture to it that is appealing

I don't use alcohol markers but I do like the Copic side. Venus is actually my favorite goddess in mythology. I have a character who looks similar with pink hair and dark skin, but has orange eyes.

[@billhansen2008]

I'm relatively new to markers, so I have about 75 Bianyos and a dozen or so Prismacolors, about 10 Copic ciaos. My disappointment with the Bianyos is that the colors are *too* vibrant for my taste. There's nothing subtle about them. For that reason (I want the option of laying down subtle colors), I prefer the Copic side of your painting. Also, my experience with the three brands of markers I have is that the Copics are by far the best at blending. But - npow I have to wait until November 2020 before Ohuhu comes out with a larger selection of colors???

[@joycevaughn8522]

I love the Ohuhu better only because that what I can afford I have a few Copic's that came in color group set. I also have Caliart, Aspire color markers they're too good. Q? What papers you use with your markers and drawing pens

[@catmcflooffloof4832]

I honestly just love both- Ohuhu is bright and vibrant, while copics give a smoother and less saturated colors, Both are amazing imo

[@starri-succulent3981]

For an even fill with markers, what I do are these: 1. I work small, so I don't have to fill in a large space and waste more time and ink than I need to. To replicate this on a larger scale if you need to, outline a certain part of the space and fill that in - keep doing that until the entire desired area is filled! 2. Try to avoid doing the circular strokes for the most part - Copic (and most/all other alcohol markers) have uneven ink coverage when different levels of pressure are applied. Use more linear or defined strokes instead. 3. If it looks streaky, go over it! This works especially well when the ink isn't dry yet, but still helps even if it is. Hope this helps!

The artwork is really pretty and it's nice to see how the brands compare side by side! However the whole time something felt a little off and after looking closer it appears that the pupil on the left side of her face is a little further to the left than the other pupil. For the markers I could see the vibrancy of ohuhu being better for more cartoony or anime styles while the copics feel more natural so for more realistic styles they'd really blend nicely!

[@lela.the.artist]

I definitely agree about the vibrancy. And yea you're right about the pupil lol! I didn't notice before. Thanks for watching!! =)

Hi Halalela, 🙋🏾‍♂️. I was wondering what kind of paper you were using? I noticed these little white speckles throughout your piece. I figured it was the paper and not the markers because it happened on both sides.

[@lela.the.artist]

Yep so I actually had to research this and what I found was that in the paper making process, the wood pulp isnt always even when the paper is made. I don't know if this is an issue with other types of paper, but I'm definitely going to be checking out a different sort of paper soon to see if I still get that same effect, or not. Thanks for watching!!

[@cinnbonn6286]

Loved this piece :)

[@dianelismartinez7026]

I will love if they put them on stores close to where i live i will buy them all

[@lela.the.artist]

That would be amazing if they stocked their marker in local stores. Way more convenient too. Thanks for watching! =)

[@jeanniegarcia4417]

What kind of paper do you use when using copic markers

[@lela.the.artist]

I use "X-press It" Blending Card paper made in size 8.5 by 11. You can find them on Amazon. =)

[@nanchilada7059]

Hello it’s meh again I was wondering what kind of paper you use since I only have thin paper and the marker will bleed right through

[@lela.the.artist]

In this video I use the "X-press It" blending cards in size 8.5 by 11. I also recently bought a sketch book where I'm able to use my markers and they dont bleed through. It's called the Rendr Sketchbook, by Crescent and its amazing!!!

[@nanchilada7059]

Thank you so much for the reply you are the best!❤️

[@teamanamex]

they both look great honestly and these are the best dupes for copics. When is the release date for the brush tips?

[@lela.the.artist]

They were released June 19th and are currently out of stock but will be back in late July. =)

[@earthtoashlyn]

Could you buy Copic refill ink in a similar color and refill Ohuhu markers?

[@dindadragn7289]

You should try blending a copic to an ohuhu

[@no-md2ub]

venus. i really like the pastel ish way of copic, for skin at least, i looooove really vibrant colors on the clothes, hair, and eyes. so yeah, I'm torn

[@hanool777]

What paper did u use for the blending part? Is cardstock good? If it is what brand is the best? Please. Help

[@ayeu5976]

i know *copic* has the best colour collection, while *ohuhu* has the vibrancy that wows me. I don't think it's fair just because *Copic* is much more older then *Ohuhu markers*, which gives *Copic markers* an advantage when it comes to colours, nibs ect. If you check the Channel for *Copic* related videos, you can see some of them were from *9 years ago*! While *Ohuhu markers* have been around for 3 years downwards. I personally love the *Ohuhu markers* and would die to get *Copics* .

[@gentlyyhaven]

I love your vids!❤️

[@lela.the.artist]

Aww thanks!! And thank you for watching!! =)

[@kairo6961]

does anybody know what paper is the best to use for these markers?

[@iotaku21]

it's hard to choose which one is better. personally i'm slowly switching over to copics mainly because i get a better control of the brush nib. also they do have a wider range of color. however, i have been wondering about other brand of alcohol based markers for a while (mainly cost wise 'cause copics are a pretty penny, and of course prismacolor as well ^^;) ohuhu has been on the top of my mind and the only thing that is leaning towards winning me over, is in fact the color of ohuhu is a lot more vibrant than copic and very similar to prismacolor that i normally use (because half of the time i use the faber-castell coloring pencils if i want that soft and/or pastel look). though i do want to say a small tip that might help with doing the background to help out the patchiness is using just the chisel tip of either the same color you use, or a colorless blender. :)

[@lela.the.artist]

I definitely feel these Ohuhu's are a great starter pack for the price. I'm slowly growing my Copic collection as well by purchasing colors one by one lol. And sweet I'll definitely do the chisel nib from now on. I had a feeling the chisel would be better. Thanks for the info! And thanks for watching!! =)

[@iotaku21]

@@lela.the.artist no problem ;) ♥

[@millie4519]

I quite like the copic, but for the price, Ohuhu is brilliant, and does its job just as well as copic.

[@lela.the.artist]

Yes I agree! Thanks for watching!! =)

[@himalayansalt32]

Copic markers obviously have more colors compared to Ohuhu which allows to make more color and tone varitetes. Hopefully, we will see more sets from Ohuhu soon!

[@lela.the.artist]

I really really hope Ohuhu makes a pastel color pack. I think they would sell great! Thanks for watching!!!

[@himalayansalt32]

@@lela.the.artist yeah, pastel tones are the ones that practically are impossible to find among Ohuhus In Copics you are able to get BV0000 and E0000, but Ohuhus...well, the opportunity to draw light skinned people or pursue "watercolor-like" look of a drawing is less achievable compared to Copics...

[@crystalfranklin2583]

I'm guessing Venus. We shall see. Haven't reached the end of the video yet. Are your illustrations available for sale??? Congrats on 10k subs. I just subscribed! I watched one of your videos a few days ago, bit forgot to subscribe so I'm glad this video popped up in my suggestions.

[@lela.the.artist]

Good guess!! Hehe. And as far prints for sale, I've been thinking of doing that. I just put a poll up in my community tab here on KZbin asking about interest and price range in prints. Maybe I'll do an etsy soon. And thank you so much for watching and subbing!! =)

[@Zhone14]

to lay backgounds/slash larger areas such as thighs, i lay them down like a printer, very uniform going back and forth, once that's laid down, i go over it with the circles, gives a much more uniform result

[@lela.the.artist]

Ooooh that sounds like a good idea! I'll definitely try that out! Thanks for sharing! And thanks for watching!

[@newkidontheblock8662]

I dont perefre to use only ne brand of markers. I want to use both! Copic for lighter shades or lighter areas like eyes for my drawings and Ohuhu for hair or brighter more vibrate areas of a drawing. I think if you used them both on a drawing for certain parts it'll look cool.

[@LinglingStudios]

I like colic better but they are too expensive for me at the minute so gonna get some ahuhu brush markers instead. Hopefully for Christmas lol!
