What’s The Copic Colour System?

The Copic Colour System organises Copic markers so artists can quickly identify the colour levels by reading the code on the cap.

The colour system is letters followed by numbers.

1. The letters represent the colour family.
2. The first number is the saturation of the colour measured in numbers 0-9
3. The last number represents the levels of brightness of the colour measured in numbers 000, 00 and 0-9 (12 classes)

Colour System Examples

• 0 (the lowest number) is white
• V09 is Violet
• YR82 is Mellow Peach
• 100 (the highest number) is Black

If we look at Violet, which is code V09

• V=Violet Family
• 0=Blending Group (lowest in the range)
• 9=Brightness (highest in the range)

If we look at Mellow Peach, which is code YR82

• YR=Yellow Red Family
• 8=Blending Group (high)
• 2=Brightness (low)

The system can take some getting used to, but once you learn it, you’ll be able to pick your pens much quicker by looking at the numbers on the caps. Don’t be put off by the coding. The caps are coloured and have the colour name printed as well as the code.
