I think street sketch artists like caricature artists use Sharpie permanent markers because they're cheap and it looks impressive to people that "Hey, you can draw a portrait in 5 minutes with the same thing I use to write on freezer bags???"

There are markers that replicate that dark ink but expressive line.
The really big Pitt artist pen. Bullet nib, off the top of my head.

It depends on if you want your sold artwork to not fade and yellow.

I think the problem for me is that they're not recyclable. And they're not refillable via company standards. (There are always hacks .)
With small tip acrylic markers, you have to buy a whole new set if you run out of several colors.

These sets are being made so fast, in China to meet this fad. I think quality control can suffer (ie, dry markers, leaking markers, transparent colors). That, and customer service might not respond.

I think acrylic markers are having their spotlight fad moment. Alcohol markers had theirs. Fine liner pens had theirs. Gouache had theirs. Watercolors, copic markers, fude brush pens..

For me, it's an accessibility issue. For myself. I can still 'paint' even if I can't get out of bed for whatever reason.
I'm looking for a pack now. (I do mixed media.)
