The individual Posca PC-17K Paint markeris the broadest Pen in the POSCA range with a 15mm extra-broad chisel tip nib.

Glass– offers semi-permanent results for glass displays that can be removed with cleaner or permanent results when placed on glass items and baked.In short, Posca pens and lightweight paper don’t go hand-in-hand. There are exceptions, like tracing paper, but as a general rule, thin paper isn’t the best option. The water-based pigment ink can be wiped off glass easily, making the pens wonderful for creating temporary signs and window art. You can even create your own permanent designs on terracotta and glass by baking in the oven, or on clothing and other fabric by ironing on the reverse. Left to right: 0.7mm ultra-fine pin tip, 0.7mm extra-fine bullet tip, 0.9 – 1.3mm fine bullet tip, brush pen tip, 1.8 – 2.5mm medium bullet tip, 8mm chisel tip, 15mm extra-broad tip. Posca pens are among the best things to ever happen to illustrative and creative minds. And if you are wondering what is so special about them, well, they are vivid, opaque, smooth, lightfast, and super versatile paint pens.

After you have seen this ink filled in the tip of the pen, you can start applying it to whatever surface you would like. With that being said, you must remember that this ink gets hard when it dries when applied to a porous surface. However, the ink can be wiped away with a sponge, washcloth, or water if it’s still wet. You should account for this if you make a mistake and the ink is still wet. Use the pens on practically any surface, including metal, wood, fabric, plastic, canvas, etc. They're even suitable to use on paper and card, as they don't bleed.

Water-Based Paint in a Marker

Paper– offers permanent results for all types of paper and cardboard. This includes photos, tracing paper, and correlated cardboard. The ink in these pens doesn’t bleed through the paper. I have had reports that Posca scratches off in some situations, so it would need to be varnished. I have been told that some brush-on varnishes smear it a bit. So the first coat of varnish should be a spray, to set it. Then apply a couple more thin coats of a hard, outdoor, UV protecting varnish like Golden MSA. As for covers, hardbound covers have more to offer in terms of protection and longevity than paper or fabric covers. The latter, however, makes portability a breeze as they make the book/pad lighter Acid-Free Stone, concrete and plaster – best on sealed surfaces and then with a few thin coats of MSA spray varnish. A smooth coat is critical, especially if you intend to blend and layer the paint. The coating minimizes the paint absorption speed, so you have a long window period to work the paint, mix colors and create smooth gradients before it dries.

While this will ultimately come down to personal preference, there are a few criteria to take into account. Paper weightThe paint included in these markers is water-soluble, which means that the ink can be diluted to create an amazing gradient effect. With that being said, this process can take time to ensure it dries properly. One handy tip that you can do is use a brush that’s been soaked in water before starting any project. After applying the paint from the marker, trace over it with the set paintbrush. You should do this before the paint from these markers dry. Mix-Up the Markers Because Posca pen paint is permanent and lightfast, pigments will remain vibrant and intact over time. Due to its composition, Bristol paper handles wet media very effectively, making it an excellent match for Posca paint.

Assuming you are buying the paper in a book/pad (it’s more economical), the type of binding and cover matters when it comes to preserving the artwork you made with Posca pens. You wouldn’t spend so much on pens only to crumple and throw away the results. Fabric and Textiles- offers permanent results after being ironed, but the fabric should be reversed when ironing.

The skull should be much easier since bone is porous unless it has been waxed or varnished. If it is very dry and porous you might want to apply a clear primer first so the paint doesn’t soak in and sit under the surface. Then paint with the posca and when it is dry varnish as above. If you wish the skull to not be shiny then for the last coat of varnish you can use a matt varnish. The first coats should be gloss because a build-up of the matt varnish will usually be cloudy, but one final coat of matt is fine. After you have seen this ink filled in the tip of the pen, you can start applying it to whatever surface you would like. With that being said, you must remember that this ink gets hard when it dries when applied to a porous surface. However, the ink can be wiped away with a sponge, wash cloth, or water if it’s still wet. You should account for this if you make a mistake and the ink is still wet. Bristol paper is a heavyweight, multi-ply paper known for its sturdy but velvety, smooth surface. This makes drawing effortless and results streak-free. All papers are not created equal. Some are excellent for pencil art but perform dismally with paint pens. That is why considering the nuances of different papers is critical before selecting one for your Posca pens.
