Serious color work demands control, versatility, and consistency. Copic Sketch delivers all three with a truly flexible brush nib, a chisel nib for broad shapes and crisp contours, and an unrivaled 358-color range. It’s the professional standard in illustration, design, and animation studios worldwide.

The luminous, transparent dye ink is formulated for nuanced layering, with each pass reading through the last so tone builds exactly as expected. All 358 colors are organized by Copic’s coding system: letters identify the color family, the first number indicates the saturation group, and the remaining numbers show brightness. Closely related colors often have nearby codes, while the finely stepped range makes it easy to build precise color families—from nuanced skin tones and atmospheric grays to complex shadows.

The Super Brush holds a fine point for detail, then opens into painterly strokes with added pressure. Use it for feathering edges, building shadows, and blending one color into the next. The Medium Broad chisel nib handles larger shapes, crisp contours, lettering, and controlled bands of color. Both nibs are replaceable, and the ergonomic oval barrel is designed to be refilled and re-nibbed rather than replaced.

Compatible with the Copic Airbrush System, Sketch Markers can also produce soft sprays, smooth gradients, and diffused effects.
