Maxon Twin Marker

Some facts:

• They have a chisel nib and a fine nib
• From Japan

…that’s all I know

Maxon Twin Marker

I bought these markers in a little art store in Japan. The store didn’t have that many markers left so I ended up with a lot of dark browns and greys and no skin colors.

The same company also makes another marker “the Comic Twin marker” which I guess has replaced Maxon Twin marker. They are clearly very different markers (you can read about them here: http://markersguild.blogspot.se/2013/11/maxon-comic-twin-marker.html

These are very standard markers. Not overly bad but not particularly good. They don’t respond well to layering or blending. They start to resist next layering after a while, and becoming almost oily (this is more or less noticeably depending on what paper I use).

I haven’t found any information about these markers on the Internet so it would be interesting if someone else hade any experience or/and knowledge about this marker.
