Eessmo 24 Colours Dual Tip Acrylic Paint Markers (fine tip & brush tip) for rock painting and crafts
Product description
The essentials
If you like your DIY crafts to look bold but you don’t want to mess about with paint sets, dual-tip acrylic paint markers are a sensible middle ground. The Eessmo 24 Colours Dual Tip Acrylic Paint Markers are built for exactly that: drawing crisp details with a fine tip, then filling in bigger areas with a brush-style tip.
They’re the sort of pen set that suits the “make it, then decorate it” crowd. Rock painting, simple lettering, and colour-blocking on craft projects are where this type of marker usually makes the most sense, because you’re not switching between different tools every few minutes. That said, marker inks can be a bit different from traditional paint in terms of layering and drying time, so it’s worth keeping your expectations realistic.
What you’ll notice day to day
The standout point here is the dual-tip setup. Each marker includes a fine tip (listed as 1 mm) for outlines and narrow lines, alongside a brush tip (listed as 1 to 5 mm) that’s designed to handle larger areas and some finer accents when you want a softer edge.
On top of that, the brand claims “improved cotton tips” which are meant to be usable straight away and to dry faster than ordinary acrylic markers. Whether it performs exactly as you’d like will depend on how much ink you put down and what surface you’re working on, but the intent is clear: less waiting around, more colouring.
A further practical detail is the note about storage and use: if you’re not using them, you’re advised to press the cap on and store the pens horizontally. That’s not a glamorous feature, but it can matter for maintaining how reliably the tips behave.
Where it works (and where it may not)
These acrylic paint pens are described as usable across a wide range of surfaces: paper, card, metal, rock painting, wood, plastic, canvas, fabric, and even ceramics—along with other craft materials.
In everyday terms, that flexibility is useful if you do mixed-media projects. For example, you might sketch a design on card, then move to a painted rock ornament for a garden display. Or you could decorate a pumpkin for Halloween and add small details with the fine tip.
However, “works on many surfaces” doesn’t automatically mean “perfect on every surface out of the box.” For slick materials like glass or certain plastics, results can vary with how smooth the surface is and how many coats you’re willing to apply. If you’re expecting one-and-done coverage like a spray, you may find you need a bit of patience.
Colour range and ink style
With 24 bright colours, the set is built around variety—useful if you want to blend, shade, or just keep projects moving without running out of a key hue. The ink is described as opaque and water-based, and also noted as having no smell and no acids.
That’s a nice combination for crafting, especially if you’re working indoors or prefer inks that feel less harsh than typical solvent-based options. It’s also positioned as helping keep colours looking lively for a long time, though actual longevity will depend on what you make and how it’s cared for afterwards.
Who it suits (and who should think twice)
It’s a good fit if you’re buying markers for crafting rather than for precision art materials—think scrapbooking, bullet journals, planners, greeting cards, and themed DIY (Christmas, birthdays, Halloween, rock painting, and similar). The dual-tip design also helps if you want one tool that can both outline and fill, without switching between a sketch pen and a paint brush.
It may not suit you as well if your main goal is ultra-smooth fine art paintwork, heavy layering effects, or professional-grade, gallery-style consistency across every coat. Marker paint can be a little less forgiving than proper acrylic paint and brushes when you’re aiming for very controlled textures.
It might also be a bit of a stretch if you only work on one surface and you already know you need a specific paint finish—because the broad “works on lots of materials” approach can sometimes be less specialised than you’d want.
Key takeaways before you buy
Before committing, it’s worth double-checking two things: first, whether your intended surfaces are among those you actually plan to use (paper/card, wood/plastic, glass/ceramics, fabric, canvas). Second, consider how detailed your projects really are—because the fine tip is listed for outlining and narrow lines, while the brush tip is meant for larger fills and broader detail.
Also, take note of the storage instruction (cap on tightly, store horizontally when not in use). It’s the kind of small detail that can affect whether the tips stay reliable over time.
Final verdict
Should you buy it? It makes sense if you want a practical, multi-surface set for craft projects where both outlining and colouring matter—especially rock painting, card making, journalling, and seasonal DIY decorations. The dual tips and 24-colour range are a clear value angle for people who like to create often.
You may want to skip it if you’re after a specialised acrylic paint system for demanding fine-art results, or if you’re expecting perfectly uniform coverage on every difficult surface with no trial and error. In short: it’s more of an easy-start craft tool than a paint replacement.
Mini FAQ
Will these acrylic paint markers work on fabric and canvas?
They’re described as working on canvas and fabric. As with most paint pens, results can vary by fabric type and how absorbent the surface is, so it’s sensible to test on a small area first.
Are they good for rock painting?
Yes. Rock painting is specifically mentioned among the surfaces they’re suited to, and the fine/brush dual tips are designed to handle both outlines and filled colour.
Do they smell?
The ink is described as having no smell and being water-based and non-acidic.
What’s the difference between the two tips?
The fine tip is listed as 1 mm for outlining and lines, while the brush tip is listed as 1 to 5 mm for colouring larger areas and adding details with a more painterly stroke.
