Curated by The Shelf Curator · Updated June 2026
Built for illustrators and hobbyists who need cost-effective replacements for individual dried-out markers without rebuying an entire set. Not for professional gallery work requiring maximum lightfastness—this shop focuses on high-utility alcohol-based drafting.
Curator's pick: Oahu B878 Individual Marker Fine and Chisel Tip
This is the smartest buy because it fixes the biggest flaw in the Ohuhu ecosystem: the inability to replace just your most-used colors. The chisel nib is rigid enough for large fills without fraying, which is usually where cheaper markers fail first.
⚠ Worth knowing: These are not refillable and the alcohol ink will bleed through standard printer paper instantly. You must use the specific heavyweight marker pads listed here or a silicone bleed-proof sheet behind your work to protect your desk surface.
