Get my PRO Artist's Collection! (ENDS SOON!) www.spectrumnoir.com/jazza #JPAC

shoutout to the offbrand copics i bought on wish that turned out to be low-key amazing 😂

Both look incredible, but on the basis of accuracy, using the pencils on the second drawing sort of skews the comparison on an objective level.

Markers = good results Markers + pencils = AMAZING results! My favorite combo of media!

A final shot with a side-by-side placement of the two versions would have been nice. :) We got to see it under Jazza's arm, but it's not the same.

I found Spectrum Noir when they were just getting started out. They were so cheap compared to the Letraset/W&N pens that I was using at the time (and WAY cheaper than Copic) that I had to try them out. Been absolutely sold on them since, Spectrum Noir's been incredible value for money from day 1 and can easily rival more "professional" brands.

The full range of brush tip Ohuhu markers Barely ran me over 200 bucks, and their quality is unmatched in my opinion!

I will never forget the time Jazza tested every alcohol marker he could find, what a journey that was haha

This made me suddenly aware that I can mix my pencils with my markers. It's amazing. I'm having so much fun now. I must say might not buy Jazzas Set, because I already have a lot of art materials. But! His tips are really paying of whenever I try them. And I love that.

I'm also surprised that you didn't show the side by side comparison. We know Copic are much better markers. Your markers are good even though they don't compare to Copic, you still should have shown the comparison. We know you were selling your markers, and that's ok. But you should have said that there good for beginners to start their collection. Some people were disappointed that you didn't show the side by side, and I clearly understand why. You have always shown the side by side, it shouldn't have been any different. You've always been honest and up front, don't change now. Don't compromise your integrity to sell a product. I have your set, and I love it!!! And I love your art, your silliness and your honesty. Maybe you should do a side by side in another video. That would make people see that you are not firelighting anyone. Love you and stay focused.

I love Arrtx, Arteza n Ohuhu as well as Copics Even Tombows alcohol markers are nice You can find awesome art supplies by just looking around.

24 vs EVERY COPIC!?!? Proceeds to use only red and blue and embellish the whole thing with colored pencils. SCIENCE!!

The bit where you mentioned blue shadows and yellow lights made me think of something. Could you do a video about deliberately breaking art rules like that one, while still producing good results?

It's a bit of a cop-out to pick a design that uses the exact colours that are in the 24 pack. Try it again but with a different image, one with WAY more colour varieties and maybe I'll believe it.

I would have really loved to see a side by side comparison of the two pieces, particularly before you applied the colored pencils. I was really looking forward to that. It was awesome to see the two pieces in action and to see more in depth how your formulated markers perform, but I feel that comparison really would have been key to showing that results are similar.

It seems to me that Jazza was a bit more careful with his products compared to the Copics. But it's expected and shows the limits of the pack too. You don't have every color to choose to fix every mistake with the limited pack

I still stick with Crayola markers. Everyone says they can’t blend and they’re streaky, but if you use an Aquabrush as a blending tool they work amazingly well and you can get really good effects with them

It's so nice seeing Jazza just drawing and colouring, as much as I love the huge art projects its nice to see a drawing video pop up in my feed.

Jazza, we've built up a trust over the years, I don't feel like there was the need for the clickbait title. You could've just titled the video "why my marker pack is awesome" and people would've clicked on it.

Copics are significantly cheaper in Japan, about $3-$4 each for Copic Sketch depending on exchange rate. I've bought most of my Copics at this price range. What makes Copics worth it is their durability, my oldest Copic marker is 24 years old. You can refill the ink, change the brush tips. If you ever lose the lid, there are empty markers available. I only ever had one Copic marker that dried out on me, I have a total of 300 of them. Can't say the same thing on other brands. For people on a budget, I always recommend getting the Grey ciao set with 5 markers, then whatever other cheaper brand they prefer for the other colours.

This video feels like an ad, and if i didnt want the product as bad as i do id be alittle annoyed. But damn does that art kit have my hopes and dreams in it.

cool video, I definitely agree that COPIC markers are vastly overpriced. But I can see you're clearly trying to sell your set, which honestly I cannot fault you for. I would have loved to have seen a side by side of the two artworks and no popping filter over the markers you are selling in your box. The box seems to be a good value, will definitely look into that.

I use Winsor & Newton brushmarkers because they're three times less expensive than Copics over here. They're amazing, the only caveat being that the brushmarker line only has ~70 colours (the line with regular tips has way more).

Old Jazza: [talks about how awesome copics are] New Jazza: that’s just a stupid investment

I think most the cost of copics is just the import fees and the stores needing to make profit that makes em cost a lot. Watching Minori made me realize that since she buys em frequently and in Japan they are like €4 which is about the same price i pay for one chiao marker where i live.

I do feel the need to mention that the price of Copic markers are WAAAY over inflated (to like up to over 4x) the price they are in Japan, when you look outside of Japan. Which actually just means it's even less worth that price since they're manufactured to be sold at a similar price point to the Spectrum Noir, if not only slightly more expensive

I love Jazza but more and more his video's are feeling like long advertisements.

Copies are literally amazing. I used to use them and I found them really, really great to draw with. But as Jazza said, they’re super expensive and as someone who isn’t THAT great at art or RICH, it was a bit too much. And so after watching this video, I know exactly what I will do to fix that (: Not buy anymore cuz… yeah I’m not rich 😭 But Jazzas art really is amazing, looking at where it started is just mind-blowing to me.

I used to draw a lot with copics and really love their reusable and refillable concept. But the price did hurt, until I when to Hong Kong and could buy them for 35-40 hkd (around 6 aus I think) each. I went kinda crazy and spend a long time researching which ones I really wanted, instead of buying big sets. So in other words since copic is Japanese buy them when you go to Asia don't pay the ridiculous mark ups.

This video leaves a little bad taste in my mouth. I agree with jazza though, Copic is like Wacom nowadays. It's quality sure but way overpriced for most people. But it all feels a bit disingenuous when he is still selling (thus incentives to push) his own marker set. Again I agree with jazza on the message of the video, I use ohuhu markers and a cheap 5 below brand to do my illustrations. But I feel like he should have waited until after his drawing set was sold out or there was a better disclaimer at the very least.

If you ever visit Japan (in the foreseeable future….), you might want pick up some copics. They’re 400 yen/3.50USD each, so about the same as spectrum noir.

"Woo"

It would be HILARIOUS if Jazza marketed an art box like one of those bad TV ad commercials where it starts of black and white "have you struggled with this" type deal and then shows the solution (in this case, the art box)!

this was just an 11 minute ad for Jazza's marker set, we didn't even get to see the side by side and he color boosted his final piece with his marker set. I love Jazza and yes copics are expensive but you can't deny just how amazingly good they are at coloring and blending and as nice and fun as the spectrum noir markers are they don't blend and layer as nicely as copics do. Its also harder to get a solid flat color with the spectrum markers. This video made me feel like Jazza was trying to gas light me

This isn't what I expected based on the title. Jazza, I want to see you swatch all your copics and then try to match each of those swatches with your spectrum noirs!

Your, “Is it a copic killer.” video is the reason I found Spectrum Noir and why I fell in love with alcohol markers. They were my first markers and have been my go to ever since. They’re more than enough for what I am able to do and so I always feel there’s more for me to get out of them. I’d like copic but not for the price they want especially not for a complete set. I got the pro artist set and it’s definitely far above my skill level but I’m learning and having fun ☺️

You know what's the best though? Having both. I know that kind of defeats the purpose of the video but I started building my copic collection very slowly almost 10 years ago. Since then I've tried quite a few other brands, and what's great about alcohol markers is that you can mix and match them most of the time. After I started bringing in some Sectrum Noir, local store brands and prismacolour alcohol markers into my collection, I've been very happy with the balance. Copic is amazing for the pastels and getting that exact hue, while having a more affordable alcohol marker to do the big flats of colour before you start blending on top helps you get your money's worth.

Love the tips about the best markers to buy because copics are definitely EXPENSIVE!!! I’ve used a few and have not found any matches (I’ve only really tried ohuhu which are pretty decent). Great video idea and might have to look at testing some of these markers on my art channel too! Thanks everyone!

Watching you make this illustration makes me wanna dive back into coloring traditionally. Thanks for the very inspirational video, Jazza!

woke up to fire alarms at 2:30am this morning. nice to see your smiling face. hopefully your enthusiasm is greater than my anxiety 😅 thanks for the fun video!

Kinda didn’t like how they upped the saturation to show the spectrum noire piece at the end

another top shelf commercial from the inimitable Jazza!

This is the longest infomercial i've ever watched. Truly loved it though.

I have over 200+ Copics and I've literally bought each one for $5 using Michael's coupons. My Galactic Toys and Games started to have Copics as well and you save an extra 10% with a membership.

This was an ad I ENJOYED watching. My professional artist grandmother ended up splitting her Copic collection between me and my twin, which ended up with me having about 40 Copics and, also being a completionist-type collector, I started expanding on them from there. But honestly? I think the Spectrum Noir colors plus the pencils may have turned out *better*. I think I'm going to have to look into them starting now 👀 Great video! I would love to see a comparison video of just "these Copic combos can make these great colors, and here's how you can make the exact same thing or better using the Jazza pack Noirs + pencils"

I’m in school right now but Jazza’s kinaesthetic learning is more important

Awesome video man! I got your pro artist set and it is brilliant!! Great value for money! Thanks alot

Cool marker set! I'll think about getting it. I already a fan of Spectrum Noir. Great work on coloring Spidey!

Ayyy this is what i love. Just plain old videos of Jazza making amazing stuff. Keep up the good work man👍

If anything, I'd stay start with a medium pack of ohuhu, or any other cheaper brand, see if you like them, and expand slowly but surely. A lot of more reasonably priced brands dont have nearly as many colors as copics, so if you find yourself needing a very specific color for whatever reason, then reach for copic.

I legit just ordered jazza's set and I've never been more excited to support a youtuber, he's my first KZfaqr to support!

I've been watching jazza all through my 5 year art journey. and i used to believe that he peaked back when i started and used to think that his art was the best he could make. but now watching he new stuff makes me think that there's no such thing as a perfect artist. his artworks and color choices are only getting even better every time i check back on his channel. phenomenal work!

Video idea: making an artwork with only the primary colors. I think it’s be really cool, just a suggestion

I love to do art but not provided with supplies :') anyways love you jazza thanks for every art you do ❤

5:21 that brush has seen better days lolz. 😂😂 but both artworks were amazing!

Ah thank you this is so helpful! I’ve always wanted to try markers 🤩🤩

I love Jazza’s videos but, not showing a side by side comparison felt like a bit of a cop-out. I took screenshots of the final pics for comparison and there was even a lighting difference in the two pics.

I think the comparison between Copic and the Jazza set was really unfair. While I agree Copic are expensive, it feels like the coloring of the Copic piece was much sloppier than the Spectrum Noir, not to mention, adding colored pencil on top of any alcohol marker will make it look more polished, which was not done on the Copic version. Tired of these thinly veiled ads.

I would have liked to see a side by side comparison of the two drawings at the end. That would really bring home the difference in quality between the two.

Jazza, awesome job. Way to add in the art tutorial. Loving it.

That turned out great. I love how the colors bleed just a little bit into each other. Gives it a very cool look.

im not an artist, i can only draw stick figures but i love watching you create art Jazza and you have inspired me to try something different

I cant wa for my set to come ^-^ thank you for clarifying a timeline for when we can begin to expect our boxes to arrive 🥰

Thank you for inspiring all of us💓 your channel is one I have watched for years and I’m always so happy to see you pop up☺️

When you're too poor to get any of them, but still like watching these videos.

Cool $2500 Marker Collection as well this Unlisted Video in the playlist 👁️👄👁️

I swear I’ve seen this idea of making a comic art illustration and doing a cheap vs expensive comparison on it.

I love the use of the "Phew" at the beginning of the video... like, you can tell it's the same one, and it's just so funny to me lol

Thee truth is. They're awesome.

thanks for uploading this one, was thinking of getting some copics so this'll help a lot :)

Thank you jazza super excited to get your art kit!

idk why but i cracked up every time the person the in the back said “woo” when jazza was talking about the how expensive the markers are

No shade to Jazza or his artist's collection but i've tried Spectrum Noir before and i have to say, i wasn't all that satisfied. The markers didn't last nearly enough ink-wise as Copics do and in some the nibs frayed almost from the very beginning, and i'm not to abuse my markers in general. There's also the fact that (as far as i know) Spectrum Noir doesn't make refill inks or spare nibs so when the marker is out, it's done, you have to throw it out. Now i know Copics are expensive as hell but you also don't need all of their colours either. I'm sure Spectrum Noir is a fine product for the price it's marketed at and if you're on a budget and just want to try your hand at alcohol markers...by all means, go ahead, it's just not the BETTER product and if you're planning on using markers long term i would suggest saving up some and picking the right colours of Copic Markers to buy and future refills(that fill your marker multiple times btw) rather than keep buying the same colours again and again.

Gotta agree with some other comments here. I havent really disliked your other ad type videos in the past but something about this one feels a little slimy to me. I think the lack of being super clear about the fact that you're selling the other brand combined with the fact that this is a videos you've done a couple times before (we know at this point that cheaper alternatives to copic are out there) makes this one feel like a stealthy ad. Rather then your normal style of "hey this is basically an ad and I know that but look at my art and this is a product I'm genuinely into" this ad felt more like stealthy bashing of the competition while doing art. I think its missing some of your normal passion I guess? I dunno i wish I could nail down exactly what it is that feels different, more scripted or something. Anyway I hope we see less of this content style.

I love your videos, thankyou for all of your content. I take much inspiration from u for both my art and my videos.

Agree 100% that expensive markers are not necessarily better than cheaper alternatives. Where I've found the difference between Copics and less expensive markers are in the durability, Copics are refillable and have various replacement nibs (plus some surrounding items that are also good). I still think the cheaper Ciao are superior to Sketch tho. Also, Copics can take a lot of rough use without taking any damage. I have shaky hands so unfortunately I must press down pretty hard or it looks like I've drawn in an earthquake. I call them the cockroaches of alcohol markers, once you got them they will survive almost anything. The only times I've managed to bust a nib (like at 5:20) was when I got greedy and tried to eke out color when the ink was completely out.

Buy cheap markers so it matters less when you accidentally refil your tea rose with sandstone ink. Ho boi.... not my finest hour.

damn that's expensive, thank god I'm a digital artist

I ordered the pro artist box as a birthday present 🎁 can’t wait for it to arrive

I learnt through Karla Magana, who still uses her prismacolour alcohol markers she has had since high school that dried out markers do not mean the pigment has dried but rarther the alcohol has evaporated. I bought rubbing alcohol from my supermarket (isopropryl alcohol) & removing one side tip and with a dropper or pipette drop 2 to 3 millimetres into the barrel and voila you super juicy alcohol marker like the day it was made. I have even done this successfully with copic ciao. Hope that helps ppl on a limited budget avoid sending perfectly usable markers to landfill. Something I don't think manufacturers want us to know. But it works.

It's seriously disappointing how expensive Copics have become. I bought my first set when I was studying Architecture in college some 8 years ago and they were expensive then. Now they're just ridiculously expensive considering how cheap off-brand knockoffs are almost as good for dirt cheap.

i don't think i've EVER seen him do marker coloring so well this is insane

Preordered! Been wanting to try this art brand and I also have been looking for new black liners cause my current set is worn out and also discontinued. Very excited to get the box in the summer. I've been watching your channel for years and super excited to try out some new supplies. Keep up the great work! You're a great art channel and always get my inspired on days I am not feeling overly creative.

Wow, this is the earliest I've ever been to a video. Amazing content like usual!

Jazza has cone to the point when every new videos he release is an advertisement for his Pro Artist box. How proud 🥺

One of the few (possibly only) jazza videos I have ever disliked. Nothing wrong with promoting your own products. Jazza has been doing just that for the past many videos without negative comments. This video however feels disingenuous for multiple reasons. It's not really fair to compare a marker set to a marker and color pencil set. The marker + color pencil has an unfair advantage. I get this video was trying to compare the relative costs between the two but to make that more clear, the cost of the coloring pencil set should have been included in the price breakdowns. Additionally, what's the point of making a comparison video when the artwork is never compared at the end? While I would have preferred a comparison, at least not comparing the two doesn't give either an unfair advantage. People could prefer one over the other just as easily. What I was most disappointed with that ultimately caused me to dislike was that the saturation was increased for the glamor shots of the spectrum noir but not for the copic. That's just absolutely not a fair comparison.

Really nice to see copics back on the channel, I’ll have to try using my copics like this, hope there are similar videos soon really enjoyed it 👍

I've really enjoyed these kinds of videos. I hope you keep making them moving forward, they're fantastic little tutorials.

I usually really love Jazza's content, but this one doesn't really sit well with me. This is honestly a shameless plug for his Pro Artist's collection. The title of the video is "24 markers vs. Every copic", yet he uses colored pencils on his artwork for the normal markers, but he doesn't for the copics. The comparison was made unfairly, and the video was( for the first time in my experience) click bait. If the video was titled "Jazza's PRO Artist's Collection vs. copic" then it wouldn't of been click bait.

I usually love Jazza's videos but this whole video just felt like an ad. First of all, it's not a fair comparison if he only uses colored pencils on top of his own markers but not the copics. Also, he should've shown a side-by-side comparison at the end.

i like the simple, almost painterly style branding on your art box

That Spidey is gorgeous! Haven’t drawn in about a year and this really inspired me to get back into it! Thank you Jazza!!,

Everyone else: "but my markers there gonna make u good at drawing and they are perfect" Jazza: "there good but let me SHOW you HOW to use my copic markers " I'm so glad I follow you cause that's how I thought as a kid was I need expensive things to create good art thanks 👍

For me as a broke dude ...i stick with cheap ones

Loved the video!! I don't mind you showing your art collection again! I think go for it!

just got out of the shower, its 4:40am for me, and i haven't slept yet, this is a nice surprise for a very sleep deprived me, thank you

You finally wore me down Jazza. I have placed my order for your pro artist's collection. I shall finally give away my Faber Castell Connector Pens . . . These fancy Spectrum Noir had better be good considering I will no longer be able to make the same degree of laser guns or fighter jets with my colouring equipment.

The truth huh

I ordered a set, i cant wait to try art with them :D thanks Jazza!

Pre-ordered the pack. Now watching all your old tutorial videos so I can create something awesome when they come in.
