    What Consumers Are Saying

    Many customers consider this the best paper for Copic markers. It’s a high-quality paper at a low price. The ink from their Copic markers applies smoothly and stays vibrant.

    When using dark colors, you may have to apply another layer to achieve the look you want. Copic marker ink dries fast and is absorbed well into the paper. The downside is you’ll need to apply more layers for quality blending.

    Tips on Choosing the Best Copic Marker Paper

    Paper Weight

    The most important feature to look at when choosing paper to use with Copic markers is paper weight. In general, paper that has a higher weight is capable of greater ink absorption. Paper that has a low weight is more susceptible to bleeding.

    Paper weight is measured in either pounds or GSM. Typical printer paper is around 20 pounds (74 gsm). For good Copic marker paper, you want a paperweight no lower than 70 pounds (104 gsm).

    Printer paper is available at 70 lbs and is often referred to as card stock paper because it’s designed for printing postcards, tickets, paperback book covers, and catalog covers. This type of paper is good for Copic marker practice.

    Beginner-Friendly

    Choose beginner-friendly paper if you’re new to using Copic markers. Paper that allows ink to sit on the surface longer before drying is good for beginners.

    If you prefer thin sheets of paper, then be aware you may have a more difficult time finding the right paper for Copic markers. However, you do have a few great options that were included above. Keep in mind that thinner Copic marker paper may take longer to dry than thick paper.

    Alcohol-Based Markers Friendly

    Check that the paper you buy can handle alcohol-based markers. Copic markers are an alcohol-based marker. For greater assurance, it’s best to check reviews for people who have used Copic markers on that paper. Thin paper isn’t always bad paper. Marker paper tends to be on the thin side yet it has greater density to help prevent bleed-through.

    Manga and illustration paper are similar to marker paper but are heavier. Copic markers will interact differently with the paper, so you may have to adjust to it at first. Manga and illustration paper, otherwise, are suitable types of paper for Copic markers.

    Personal Needs

    Each person has their own style of inking and blending, which will play a role in determining which paper is best for you. Experiment with the top choices in paper for Copics to find your favorite.

    Texture matters when you choose paper for art. The rough paper absorbs ink fast, which means you need to work quickly if you need to blend colors. People who do a lot of blending prefer smooth paper because they can achieve better results with more time to blend.

    Smoothness

    When it comes to using markers, most artists enjoy the feel of smooth texture as well. Ink lay down via markers is more enjoyable on smooth paper. Rough paper tends to create drag. Some even find it a frustrating drawing experience.

    The heavy paper is usually good at preventing feathering, a problem that occurs when ink spreads outside of its initial application area. Feathering happens when the paper has become too saturated.

    As you try different papers with Copic markers, take notes on how they performed and whether or not you liked them. This helps you remember which paper to avoid and which to buy.

    Making the Decision

    For beginners, the best paper for Copic markers is Hammermill Premium Color Copy Cover and X-Press It Blending Card. The Hammermill paper is great to practice paper for artists of all experiences because you get a lot in the pack at a low cost. X-Press It Blending Card is expensive, so you may want to save it for important pieces.

    The X-Press It Blending Card is suitable for more experienced artists as well. It’s one of the most popular papers used for Copic markers.

    Affordable choices in sketchbooks and pads that have high-quality paper for Copic markers are the Strathmore 400 Series Toned Gray Sketch Pad, Canson XL Bristol Pad, and Bee Paper Artist Marker Paper Pad.
