So I’m gonna jump on the cheap vs expensive bandwagon and test out some markers. Many people asked about these Chameleon pens from my recent life hack video, and others might have seen them in various “oddly satisfying” clips around the internet. I’ve always wanted to try them out so this video was the perfect opportunity. For the DIY version I originally came up with all sort of ideas like using blank markers, sponges or melamine foam to create the mixing chamber. Then I realised that the cheapest and easiest water reservoir is simply a cucumber and that worked great XD!

IN-DEPTH REVIEW
This is a much more detailed review than I was able to include in the video. So I’ve known about Chameleon pens for a quite a long time and many manga artist friends have created work for them. However as mentioned in the video, I felt the marketing for the product was “neither here nor there”. For example, Copic markers are solely marketed as a professional brand for illustrators, designers, architects etc and their in-store point of sale matches with the hefty price tag. Chameleon pens have the same high quality and cost but their in-store displays (complete with tablet screens showing how the pens work) seem to be aimed at total beginners, hobbyists or basically children despite the packaging stating it’s only for ages 14 and up.

They’re clearly trying to hit the “adult colouring book” trend with many products on sale alongside the pens like colouring card packs. This creates another confusing target market issue because professional artists are definitely *not* into adult colouring books. One of the most genuine joys of being an illustrator is the ability to ink & colour your OWN outlines, so it feels slightly patronising when a brand is trying to push amateur items alongside a “professional” product. Another observation is that the colouring cards have extremely thick black outlines that overwhelm the delicate, alcohol based ink. This makes all their sample images look heavy-handed and lacking finesse. A professional artist will see right away that none of these sample images are of “sellable quality” nor would any serious publisher commission work in that style (colouring book aesthetics). The pens have a lot more potential but this sadly seems to get lost in the products and instructions supplied by the company.

By coincidence when editing this video, an artist friend on FB posted an amazing illustration she created using only 3 or 4 Chameleon pens. The result is unrecognisable compared to the official sample images from their colouring books. Of course, she drew her own outlines using very thin fineliners and layered several shades on top of each other. The biggest advantage of being able to change tone using one pen is that lets you shade and layer a lot more efficiently. You need 3 Copic markers to create the same effect as 1 Chameleon pen, so in the end this is actually the more cost effective option IF you use them to create complex illustrations, not just for colouring in.

So in a nutshell, this is a great but slightly confusing product. It’s very expensive but marketed at people who may not benefit from that added cost. Professional illustrators are willing to buy expensive markers because that’s an investment. If a pen is easy to use or saves you time then that has a positive effect on your income. However if you’re only using the pens to colour in cards of butterflies then it’s questionable how much the expensive nibs and ink will bring you. As shown here, you can get the same results with any old markers and a cucumber XD!!! However if you’re interested in doing more complex work, or if you already have experience with Copics, then this is definitely worth a try.
