- Are they still as awesome as they were when I first reviewed them six long years ago? I answer that question and more in the look at Faber-Castell Pitt Markers.

They run their factories very well too. There is a very small gap between the salary of the top level managers, and the cleaners and sweepers, for example. Workers get a two hour lunch break, time enough to go home and eat with their family and then come back to work refreshed and happy. Every worker has a vote ... and ANY change proposed by any member of staff, is put to the vote, and as such even the part time canteen servers vote has as much weight as the operations managers.
Running a business like that, is probably why the quality of their goods is so high. The workers are happy and unified.
Thank you.
I still have their sepia set I got in high school back in 2005, the brush marker lasted me quite a while but it is definitely dead now, the fineliners I can still get some pretty fun sketchy lines out of. Love their sets of sepia, sanguine and greys, I find them to be really useful for life drawing and any time you want to do a quick sketch with a variety of line weights.
Great review Marty! Your last review is when I bought mine and just like you say, they still work great. I love using these on the gray toned Stillman and Birn sketchbooks. They come out vibrant and because they are water based they don't do much bleeding through if at all. Thanks for the video Marty, happy New Year!
Yes! I purchased some after the old video. They still look and works like new. I had a hard time with them in the beginning, but once I used them on tan toned paper. I could use them in tight spaces with my children, not fearing they will inhale the strong alcohol fumes. They don’t bleed, they are great.
I bought the full set of 60 brush markers after trying a couple of the 6pc wallets that I liked at least 5 yrs ago and could be as many as 8years and they all still work well and I too have had good experiences with them too!!! Thx for another great video Marty!!
That is awesome! They really do make nice products.
My favorite markers. Love how they blend in mixed media.
Same! :-)
Good review Marty, thanks.
Nice demo Marti. I was contemplating these a few years back. However, ended up going with their watercolor markers, and have recently started using alcohol markers as well. Great explanation on the Pitts though. Very helpful in choosing what to look for in this line! Thanks again Marti!
Thank you and that's great to hear you are trying other things.
I have at least 31 of these markers and they work like a dream . I bought 29 new colors recently and I love them.
Thank you.
Faber castelle has been my go to for a decade. The ink is permanent, doesn’t bleed or spread, and they have every color under the sun.
The Faber Castell Pit Artist Pen world opend up with their dual markers. Up to today they have 30 colours. They are jucy and vibrant. Absolutely lovely!
I love that!!!
These are beautiful makers. I love them. I was so lucky. I got all 60 secondhand for a great price and so far I've only needed to replace one colour. I love the muted shades of them when dry.
Hi sue
I love my faber castell markers. I use the fine tip ones and use them primarily with my watercolor.
I love my Pitt pen range, and have collected a small range of them. There’s just a few colors that don’t have just yet. I’ve also found these to be Copic proof once completely dry. There’s just so many uses for the pens and my mom even got me a small set that had one of their nice cases which I still keep the pens in a couple years later. It’s really an underrated tool out there that I’m glad is getting a bit more attention these days.
A bought the wooden case with all the Pitt markers a few years ago. It was on sale and I wanted to try india ink instead of alcohol ink I always use. I resold them after 6 months. I hated them. Mayby I was using the wrong type of paper. Mayby it was because I was used to Copics and I tried to much using them as Copics but I just couldn't get the hold of it. The result was allways streaky and blending was very hard. The tip of the brushmarkers is still very hard compared to Copic sketch and I found it very hard to use them in combination with my polychromos (but mayby that's my fault and you can't use a waterbased ink in combination with an oilbased pencil???? I don't know).
And personaly I think its a pitty that you can't refill them (although I read that you can use the Pitts for years before it runs out of ink).
I'm still thinking I was using them incorrectly. The guy who I sold them to was thrilled with them. But I stick to my Copics + polychromos.
I have some and I don’t use them often because they were streaky to lay down, but I haven’t layered them like you did here. Otherwise they’re really good as you say.
Happy 2022 Marty. I got the 24 set of the pitt artist markers but I find it difficult to work with them. Thank you for your video
Hi Dawn - Why is it you find them difficult, just curious? Thanks for the note by the way.
@@owingsart thank you for responding. The batch I find them streaky and I am sure what type of paper to use with them
@@MadebyDawn23 they do work differently than alcohol based markers, so if used like that, they will be streaky, especially on paper that sucks up ink. Use a smooth paper like Bristol or marker paper, and layer them. You can then even blend with a smudging technique. Don't worry on getting too dark this way. Like seen in the video, you can always use the white pen to lighten colour, which will lighten more with each applied layer. I love these pens.
@@DieterPrivate thank you
Been watching since 2016
Wow!!! Thank you so very much.
I've recently fell in love with these after developing allergic reaction to alcohol markers 😅
They work great!
The quality is extremely good. I have 10 year olds that are still good. It’s worth it. Thanks Faber and Great Video Marti 👍
Thanks for watching.
My son bought me these when they first came out because I’d given him my Tombows and over the years he had moved and lost them…I got the extras when released and I can honestly say…they still work…I wonder what it is about them that they got put away in the first place?🤣🥰
I can’t get over all the colors, that’s great that properly stored how long they can last. Do they have much odor? I used to have one of the whiter fatter ones and it was great, may have to revisit them,. Thanks Marty
Hi Essie - It seems to me that they don't have any odor at all. The big white ones are great. The smaller white ones don't stack up to the bigger ones though.
Hello there! First of all, many thx for this video. Very nice!
Quick question, do you know if that white would show on top of watercolor?
It might, but I use a Prismacolor white or a Unibal UM-153 white ink pen.
I love to use these markers for stamping and then use them as watercolors for the card and you can rewet the card and the color won't move or smudge I can' even use other products over the image. I just wish they had more of the Big Brush markers in open stock I can only seem to find them in the set on Amazon. Did they stop making the big ones? I am so glad you did this because i feel better knowing they are backed by a you!! :) Thank you so much
Thankvyou so much for the kind remarks and I'm sorry I missed them when you left them.
@@owingsart NO worries!! 🤩
I do a lot of coloring books, so I need to know how much they bleed? Either sideways or through the page? Can you help? Also, how long do the points last?
I use fineliners and these markers all the time in coloring books and they are my favorite! Because they don't bleed.. I haven't found a book that they do.. even in books where I didn't expect it they didn't bleed at most a shadow on the other side. If you have them try them and you will surprised.
Hello, cant find the master artist link you mention.
I added him to the comments. His name is Don Colley.
Hi Marty! I love the Faber-Castell pit pens, I use them to line my sketches for watercolor since they are waterproof when dry. :) What was the artist’s name? Don Collen(sp?) I tried to go back to hear his last name, but I’m not sure if the spelling is correct.
The Pitt marker artist is Don Colley. He really is a great artist using the Pitt markers.

I wonder what I am doing wrong. I bought faber castell goldfaber markers from hobby lobby less than a month ago, filled about half a sketchbook worth of doodles and theyre already all dried out. I store them horizonal with caps tightly on. Came to youtube to figure out whats going on. Any tips are appreciated!
Sorry to hear that. I’ve never experienced that, but would definitely reach out to Faber and ask if they can help you.
where can I get Soft Brush and Brush replacement Nibs as I use them with pressure !!
I am not sure you can. I've never replaced them so not sure. You can check with Faber-Castell though. Just email them, they're pretty responsive.
Pull them out and turn them around 😉
@@UJB123 I have already done that! thanks !
I had the whole brush set and I was so disappointed in them. The instructions say to lay them on their side, which I did but every one of them dried up. I was sent 2 from FC and within one year they dried or were incredibly weak. I was never contacted again about the product. For what I paid for them it wasn’t right. So I never bought another marker set.
Hi Jennie - I am sorry to hear this. Mostly sorry you didn't get good follow up for FC to see how things went. Maybe you got a bad batch or something, not sure, but I've had really good luck with these markers. Hope you are doing great.
Love them but they suck to try and transitional blend if the need arises.
I haven't had too much trouble, but I can see that happening.
Odd. Black screen.
