New Pastel and Booster Portrait Set from Arrtx: Let's Review & Compare!

Hi friends! Today we are going to look at a couple of new marker packs from Arrtx and see if they might be right for you (or duplicate what you already have. *These markers were sent to me for free for review. Affiliate links used. I have reviewed most of the Arrtx marker sets so if you want more indepth info on any of these markers check out these videos: https://www.youtube.com/c/thefrugalcrafter/search?query=arrtx

The Arrtx pastel tone alcohol markers are available in 2 versions:
Alp (Fine bullet tip and chisel tip) https://amzn.to/3o66sbo
Oros (Brush tip and chisel tip) https://amzn.to/39wihPF
*At the time of writing there was a 20% off coupon for these sets

This is a beautiful selection of clean pastel tone alcohol markers. They are very pale versions of pure colors as opposed to desaturated muted tones. There are some pale peach tones suitable for light skin. This set does not include a clear blender. Keep in mind if you already own the 80, 90, and skin tone arrtx sets then these pastel tones will be duplicates. Since pastel tones tend to get used the most for blending out it's nice to have a way to repurchase them at once, that said if you don't use pastels much that these won't be a good choice LOL! Arrtx markers are on the Shinhan color numbering system.

I wondered how these compared to the Ohuhu pastel set of 48 that came out last year. I found that the Ohuhu set had more muted and greyed tones and fewer of the clean light colors. https://amzn.to/3EKcpAP I wanted to compare these two sets in case you had the Ohuhu and wanted to know how they compared.

We also looked at the ALP 2.0 Skin Color Markers https://amzn.to/3o42HDo that filled in the gaps in the original skintone set of 36 that leaned very pale and cool undertoned:
Alp version: https://amzn.to/3lNLATA
Oros version: https://amzn.to/3i3QydL

I was also curious as to how those compared to the Ohuhu 24 skintone set that came out a couple years ago: https://amzn.to/3lQnqYJ and the ohuhu colors had really warm and orangy undertones as opposed the Arrtx 36 which were cooler. The ohuhu were more in the range of the Alp 2.0 booster pack of 12. Ohuhu now has a 36 stone set that has some more cooler light colors tho: https://amzn.to/3lQnqYJ

My advice is to see what you have and where the gaps are in your stash and choose the colors you don;t have to make your set of markers more useful. This might mean buying a pack of markers like I reviewed today as the per marker price is cheaper,or if you just need a couple of markers, choosing a few open stock from an art store to meet your needs.
