Product Information

Full details

The Winsor & Newton Mixed Media Manga Set is an all-inclusive toolkit specifically designed for aspiring and professional manga artists looking to elevate their illustrative work. Curated by artist Dani Paz, the set provides essential high-quality drawing and coloring instruments, though users should be mindful that the alcohol-based ink requires consistent pressure and careful handling to prevent ink bleed if using paper other than the included bleedproof pad.

FAQs

Is the ink in the markers refillable?

These specific Promarkers in the Manga set are not designed to be refilled.

Can I use these markers on watercolor paper?

While you can use them, the texture of watercolor paper is often too rough and absorbent, which may cause the marker tips to fray and the ink to feather.

Are the colors lightfast?

Promarker ink is dye-based, meaning it is vibrant but not lightfast; artwork should be kept out of direct, prolonged sunlight to prevent fading.

How do I blend the colors?

For best results, apply the lighter color first, then layer the darker color while the ink is still wet to create smooth gradients.

Can children use this set?

The ink is non-toxic, but the set contains small parts and permanent inks, so it is recommended for older children and adults.

What is the weight of the paper provided?

The bleedproof paper pad included in the set features 160gsm weight paper.

Troubleshooting

Marker tip feels dry or streaky

Store the marker horizontally for one hour to allow ink to flow back into the tip, or try swapping to the opposite end of the marker.

Ink bleeding through the paper

Ensure you are using the included bleedproof paper or a similar marker-specific heavy-weight paper; standard copy paper is too porous for alcohol ink.

Fineliner skip or failure to write

Check if the paper surface has oils from hands or residue from erasers, which can clog the fine nib. Clean the paper with a soft brush or use a fresh sheet.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Comprehensive all-in-one set for manga creation
  • Professional-grade, alcohol-based inks
  • Includes dedicated bleedproof paper
  • Excellent tip variety for both detail and coverage
  • Non-toxic and low-odor ink formulation

Cons

  • Markers can bleed if used on standard printer paper
  • Limited color palette compared to larger professional sets
  • Alcohol-based ink is permanent on many porous surfaces

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your markers, always snap the caps back on tightly immediately after use to prevent the alcohol solvent from evaporating. Store the markers horizontally to keep ink distributed evenly between the two tips. While the set includes specialized bleedproof paper, you can use other high-gsm, coated, or marker-specific papers for future projects. Avoid cleaning the marker tips with water, as this may compromise the chemical balance of the ink; if a tip becomes dirty, simply draw on a scrap piece of paper until the residual color clears.
