Copics and Bick markers

[Tana]

Just a question. I tried to search the forums, but I couldn't find the answer I was looking for. Has anyone tried to figure out what copic color would be the same as each Bick marker in the big pack? I would love to know so that I can add copics to fill in the gaps, but I don't want doubles. Thanks

Wow! I never knew someone had taken the time to do this. Thanks for the link!

That was exactly what I was looking for. I knew that someone must have been curious enough to figure it out. You ladies are amazing!

Hope this was helpful. I didnt want to buy doubles either so I googled it. There are a few other people who have done it but I found this one is closest to what I need.

way cool, thanks!
One thing I've found is, I end up buying the Copic eventually because the Bic dries out...but this way, I know which one to buy!

Putting in my 2 cents:
I don't have E93 but Peach Parfait is a dead ringer for R02, to me.
Also, I thought E39 was redder than the Woodsy Brown, the Lemon Bliss is not like &11 to me at all, and Oceanview Blue is darker and brighter than B93.

I also made a list of SU colors I thought matched the Bics, if anyone is interested:
Tranquil Teal -- darker than Soft Sky
Hot Aqua -- Tempting Turquoise
Yellow Blaze -- Yoyo Yellow
Woodsy Brown -- Basic Brown
Polynesian Purple -- Lavendar Lace
Peach Parfait -- Groovy Guava (Copic R02)
Pink Flamingo -- lighter than Pixie Pink
Meadow Green -- darker than Garden Green (could be same as YG67 in Copics, it's darker than G28 )
Lime Sorbet -- lighter than Green Galore (could be G14)
Forest Green -- Glorious Green
Tiki Hut Tan -- like Kraft (not exact) (could be E43 in Copics)
Stone Gray -- Basic Gray (could be C7 in Copics)
Prairie Berry -- Purely Pomegranite (close to Copic R69)
Desert Rose -- Razzleberry
Harvest Orange -- Tangerine Tango (Copic YR09)
Summer Melon -- darker than Apricot Appeal
Midnight Navy -- Night of Navy (could be Copic B99)

The ones I say "could be" is because I don't have those Copics, but those are the listed matches for the given SU color.
