Explore transparent colour areas, brushwork and fine reserved lines with one Colorex set. The box contains 38 pieces for watercolour illustration, manga, comics, calligraphy and art journaling. Combine liquid ink with the five brush markers, or use the water brush for softer transitions.

What is in the box?

  • 10 bottles, 20 ml each: primary yellow, magenta, Turkish red, cyan, pink beige, Payne’s grey, sepia, ivory black, white and pearl medium.
  • 5 Colorex brush markers: orange, violet, ultramarine blue, spring green and fluorescent pink.
  • 1 Drawing Gum marker with a 0.7 mm tip, 1 water brush and 1 watercolour brush.
  • 2 graphite pencils, HB and 2B, 1 eraser, 1 sharpener and 1 palette.
  • 5 sheets of watercolour paper and 10 separate pipettes.

From a colour sample to an illustration

  1. Make a small colour chart on watercolour paper. Use a separate pipette for each colour and mix on the palette. The coloured inks are intermixable and can be used neat or diluted with water.
  2. To reserve white lines, test Drawing Gum on the same paper first. Shake the closed marker and prime the tip on scrap paper. Draw the lines and let the masking fluid dry before applying colour.
  3. Paint with the brush or water brush, then add lines or colour accents with the Colorex markers. Let the ink dry; this generally takes tens of minutes depending on water and paper.
  4. Gently remove the dry Drawing Gum with a finger or eraser once the colours are completely dry. Remove fine masking lines within one week at the latest.

White, pearl effects and storage

The coloured inks are transparent and dye-based; white is opaque and pigment-based. Stir the pearl medium well before use and mix it into a colour or apply over dry colour for shimmer. UV light can affect the colours, so keep originals out of direct sunlight. Store markers closed, ideally horizontally. Refilling directly with a dropper cap uses the separately available 45 ml Colorex bottles; the included bottles are 20 ml.

Safe use

The magenta ink may cause an allergic skin reaction and contains Reactive Red 147. The set also contains BIT, MIT and Reactive Black 5 (C.I. 20505), which may produce an allergic reaction. Keep out of reach of children. Wear protective gloves and eye protection; avoid skin contact and breathing vapour. Hazardous respirable droplets may form when sprayed: do not breathe spray or mist. Follow the labels and dispose of residues and containers under local rules.
