Hello,

I have been using Sharpie Oil Based Paint Markers in a lot of my work but I'm never really happy with them. I find the marker breaks easy, and the only colour that really holds true is black. I bought a white one that was more clear and useless than any shade of white.

Does anyone have any suggestions for a different brand? I normally paint using acrylics but I like the shiny outline I can get with the oil based markers.

Thanks for your help!
