That's not a loss, and it's actually why we kept the set whole rather than splitting it up: these 15 shades are the most-used skin tones in the entire range, the first to run out as soon as you draw characters. You get a built-in head start on exactly the markers you would have rebought first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe three markers that are always missing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese three shades can't be found in the 320 set or the skin tone set.

Buying them individually is the only sensible way to complete the palette — and that's where this bundle makes its real saving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe most efficient combination possible — and it's not just us saying so\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ohuhu community has spent years documenting which combinations of boxes give the most shades with the fewest duplicates. The conclusion always comes back to the same base: the \u003cstrong\u003e320 set\u003c\/strong\u003e, completed by the \u003cstrong\u003e36 skin tone set\u003c\/strong\u003e, then the \u003cstrong\u003ethree individual markers\u003c\/strong\u003e that are otherwise out of reach. That's exactly this bundle. It isn't a commercial choice but the most efficient calculation you can make across the Honolulu range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy the complete palette changes the way you colour\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith alcohol ink, the quality of a gradient depends on the gap between two neighbouring shades. The closer the colours, the more invisible the blend. With 344 references, you work with complete families: five successive blues for a sky, four skin tones to model a face, three greens for the depth of foliage. That's something no partial set allows, whatever its number of colours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe dual brush \u0026amp; fine tip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flexible brush tip varies its width with pressure: generous fills, gradients, filling large areas. The fine tip handles crisp outlines, details and lettering. One marker replaces two tools, and you never switch instruments to change scale. It's the signature of the B series, more accessible than the brush \u0026amp; chisel version aimed at experienced illustrators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRefillable alcohol ink\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the most underrated argument for the Ohuhu range: Honolulu B markers are \u003cstrong\u003erefillable\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the brush nibs are \u003cstrong\u003ereplaceable\u003c\/strong\u003e. An empty marker isn't thrown away, it's refilled. With a collection this size, that completely changes the maths: you buy the palette once, then maintain the shades you actually use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGetting gradients right\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWork from lightest to darkest, on ink that's still wet, keeping two to three numbers between shades. The colourless blenders provided soften edges and rescue a transition that's too harsh. With a complete palette, you always have the in-between shade you need — which is precisely what makes blending easy rather than technical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich paper should I use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmooth paper of at least 120 gsm, ideally marker paper, limits bleed-through and bleeding. The anti-bleed sheets provided slip under the page if your sketchbook is thin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the collection contains\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 359 dual-tip markers (344 unique colours), the colourless blenders, the original carrying cases, the swatch cards, the manuals and the anti-bleed sheets.
