I keep thinking I’ve bought all the art supplies I’ll ever need, but then a new medium appears in a shiny colorful rainbow of colors, and I cant help but indulge. Welcome to my new 72 set of Jusart acrylic paint pens!
There are dozens of sets of acrylic markers to choose from. I’m pretty happy with the set I got. It has a nice selection of colors and a nice case. They were among the cheapest per pen but with the highest reviews (4.8/5). There are smaller sets, and other brands sell sets with hundreds of colors.
If you value lightfastness, you could also look at Posca or the extra fancy Molotow. Molotow are refillable, retippable (tips are exchangeable and highly varied), lightfast, waterproof. They say they are worth the premium, but they’re also 6 or 7 times the price of my cheap ones.
The one thing lacking in the set I bought are enough colors with a darker value (8 or 9 out of 10). So I just ordered another small set of nine more “colorful blacks” to fill in that gap.
