Default must have colors not in the ciao line

So, if I get all 144 colors of the ciao line, are there any other colors out there that are must have's that aren't available in the ciao line? Hope this makes sense, lol.

Colors are such a personal thing. I can tell you the colors I have that I use a lot that are not in Ciao, but that doesn't mean you will. I also use a few that you may not use, because I have the airbrush system... so looking at those I use a lot, not available in Ciao, that I use without the airbrush... hmmmmm OK - - I will bold the Sketch ones. If it isn't bolded, then it is available in Ciao.

Rv32 to blend with RV34.
R24 in blending between R22 and R29
BG72, 75, 78 series - I use these occasionally, but really the only series I use that isn't available partly in Ciao.
B91 to shade with the B93, 95 and 97
E74 as a shade in between E77 and E71.
C9 All the odd Cs come in Ciao except this one and it provides me a blend between the Cs and the 100.


OK... those are what I use. I have seen a lot of people who use the BV01, 04, and 06 combo for purples, and BV01 doesn't come in Ciao, and I use BV000 occasionally for backgrounds.

Like I said, keep in mind that it is so very subjective - which colors you like is really different. I know a lot of people use the YRs a lot. I rarely use them. You may like more earthtone colors where I like the blues and greens. That kind of thing.

outstanding, this is EXACTLY the info I was searching for! I know colors are subjective based on what you need, but was wondering if there were significant gaps I would notice and wish I had..lol

R81 and R83 blend with R85 (Ciao) to make an awesome pink.

I have mostly Ciao markers and I bought the light "000" shades in the Sketch. I personally tend to use the "000" shades a lot.

After careful consideration, we chose these 36 colors as a great compliment to the Ciao line. Hope this helps!
