Six premium acrylic markers in a bold, high-contrast primary palette — and a reversible tip that gives two working widths from a single marker. The Royal & Langnickel MARK-2721 set delivers the same versatile acrylic marker format as the Pastel set, in six vivid, saturated colours that suit a broader range of applications where strong, direct colour and maximum contrast are the priority.
The tip is the most distinctive feature. At 2mm the tip produces a fine, controlled line suitable for detail work, lettering, and precise marks — and the tip reverses to give a broader surface for filling larger areas and bolder strokes. The ability to switch between the two without changing marker makes it considerably more versatile than a fixed-tip pen, and reduces the number of tools needed to achieve a range of mark widths within a single project.
The paint is acrylic-based — water-resistant once dry, permanent, and opaque enough to show clearly on both light and dark surfaces without a base layer. The primary palette — Red, Yellow, Blue, Green, White, and Black — is the most versatile and widely useful selection of the two sets. Red, Yellow, Blue, and Green provide the core working colours for illustration, lettering, and decorative work. Black gives strong outline, shadow, and contrast. White adds highlights, softens edges, and shows clearly on any dark surface. Together the six cover the full range of tonal and chromatic needs for most illustrative and decorative work.
The markers work on canvas, glass, fabric, wood, paper, card, ceramic, and most other surfaces — making them a genuinely multi-surface tool rather than one limited to paper.

What does reversible tip mean?
The tip can be removed and reinserted in reverse, giving a broader working surface at one end and a finer point at the other — effectively two tip widths from a single marker. This allows both detail work and broader filling and blending without needing a different pen.
Are the markers permanent once dry?
Yes — the acrylic paint is water-resistant once fully dry, making it permanent on most surfaces. On non-porous surfaces such as glass it can be removed before drying but sets permanently once cured.
Can they be used on dark surfaces?
Yes — the opaque acrylic paint shows clearly on dark backgrounds without a base layer. White and Yellow in particular are useful on dark surfaces where lighter colours need to be visible.
How does the Primary set differ from the Pastel set?
The Primary set contains Red, Yellow, Blue, Green, White, and Black — bold, saturated colours suited to high-contrast illustration, lettering, and decorative work. The Pastel set contains softer, muted tones suited to botanical and floral illustration, journalling, and projects where a gentle, contemporary colour palette is the aim. Both sets use the same reversible 2mm tip and acrylic paint formulation.
