00:00Sometimes it's not your coloring skills, it's actually the marker you're using.
00:03Watch this little experiment.
00:04I'm starting with a regular old school marker.
00:06I'm just coloring this section like I normally do.
00:08And right away you can see those uneven stroke lines.
00:10Now let's let it dry for a moment.
00:11I'm going to add another layer.
00:13Look at the middle.
00:13See how the overlapping areas turn darker.
00:15Instead of making the color look better, it just makes everything look messy.
00:19Now let's try an acrylic marker.
00:20I'm using the same paper and doing the exact same thing.
00:23But look at how nicely this color goes on.
00:25It's smooth, vibrant, and much more consistent.
00:27Now I'll let it dry and go over it once more.
00:30Look at that.
00:30The second layer still looks really clean.
00:32And here's another difference.
00:33Flip the paper over, the regular marker bled through, while the acrylic side stayed much cleaner.
00:38And these come in a set of 60 acrylic markers.
00:40They also include a layered plastic storage box, so your colors stay organized instead of getting scattered everywhere.
00:45I think this is especially handy if you enjoy making handmade cards, coloring books, or Christmas decorations.
00:49And since the Black Friday sale is happening right now, it might be a good time to grab a set.
