(Part 2) Best markers & highlighters according to redditors
We found 839 Reddit comments discussing the best markers & highlighters. We ranked the 343 resulting products by number of redditors who mentioned them. Here are the products ranked 21-40. You can also go back to the previous section.
Actually that's not correct, the one in the picture is the Uni Promark View Highlighter. You can differentiate it because the Uni has the coloured plastic behind the nib, but the Sharpie ones have black plastic behind the nib.
It seems that only certain permanent markers contain xylene. The King Size Sharpie as well as the Magnum Sharpie do, according to Wikipedia. The marker that they seem to be using is a big metal one like the King Size and Magnum so it is likely that the marker they're using does contain xylene. It also probably contains cresol, which is also very bad. A very large portion of his skin is covered in marker, marker that is likely more harmful than your typical permanent marker. I'd be pretty upset if someone covered a good portion of my body in highly toxic industrial solvents. I'm not a stick in the mud incapable of having fun, if there was an option that was non-toxic and equally as marking I might find the humor in it. I just wish people had more sense to know the harm these things can have on a person's health.

This one! is a great beginners tunic. Remember, cut once but measure twice. Use Frixion markers to mark up the fabric - they disappear when you iron but will come back in the freezer. They do wash out pretty easily.
The biggest thing to remember when cutting up the fabric is seam allowances - let's say you have a 38" chest. You want the fabric circumference to be ~39" when you wear it for some ease. For simplicities sake, it's better to cut the front and back rectangles for the body of the tunic at 20" each, giving you 40" pre-sew. Most people end up with only 1/4" seams so you'll have a slight bit more than 39".
However - very important other sewing rule- DO A MOCK UP! You will never know how horribly you have measured until you actually wear the pattern. Old sheets from the thrift store make awesome mock up materials. Cut out your pattern on that first. You often don't have to make up the entire thing - just the body of the garment. If it feels fine, great. If it's too big/too small pin, pinch, or draw where to expand as needed. Again, Frixion markers are amazing for those things.
Plain fabric is great fabric. Plain solid colors can always be embellished with some embroidery or trim. That print might look lovely to you, but I've seen far too many 100% 20th C/21st C toiles being used for garb (stories. Oh dear me, do I have stories) to know that suggesting anything other than plain fabric is a very, very bad idea.
If you get stuck, ask questions!
No, those are dry erase markers. You want Wet erase markers for a standard game mat. Any that say 'wet erase' would do. Perhaps ask a teacher or look for a school supply store. These are the kind of markers that were used in older "overhead projectors".
The best ones are Staedtler like these: https://www.amazon.com/Staedtler-Lumocolor-Non-Permanent-Assorted-STD316WP4A6/dp/B0007OEDSO
This looks like an online retailer that services Chile and has them: https://listado.mercadolibre.cl/industrias-y-oficinas/oficinas/staedtler-lumocolor
I recommend Staedtler non permanent lumocolor. They dry fast and require a little water to get off, so you won't erase your work by accident. I use it in conjuction with a Scrubby whiteboard notebook.
I don't know anything about SCARS or their triggers but it does look like the trigger could potentially interact with the hammer in that area. Pic. Looks like its a failsafe in case the disconnecter or sear fails. Probably makes the lighter trigger drop safe too. Like you said, its probably not a critical dimension. I'm guessing they cast it to size then take a qualifying cut on it to make sure there isn't an interference there. Its probably a "size minus" tolerance. Yours just happened to have a little extra there and since its finish machined after its coated, you see it.
I wouldn't worry about it either way. You'll never see it in the gun and the trigger should work fine.
If you're really worried about it.

Start with the underlay.
Got your underlay in position? Awesome. Now add the overlay materials. Use /u/the-packet-thrower's stencils in conjunction with your overlay and underlay tools.
Need to back out a change? Use the standard change management tools prescribed by the underlay/overlay technologies..

Well, I absolutely love Avery Alder's The Quiet Year. If you can, buy the physical cards and book, instead of the PDF. I usually play using these Frixion Pens, which are erasable in the most totally awesome way (not like those old "erasable pens" which just smudged, left a mess of dirty rubber, and ripped the paper...).
EDIT - Included a link to the game. Also, I should mention that I have almost exclusively played this game in bars. Themes and tone have varied widely from dark, brooding and tense to just plain ridiculous.
I used these, pretty cheap on amazon.

Maybe some are marketed for shop work, but the Sharpie branded ones definitely target the student/paper-pusher market.
Sharpie.com:

It appears to be a Sharpie King Size which I think only comes in Black, Red, and Blue.

The core material EDC, to me would be knife, light and cellphone. But cool keychain gidgets are really nice too.
So I'd say if you have a knife, a good flashlight would be next, then a backup knife and light (one is none, two is one). I like a multi-tool or SAK for my backup knife, and a keychain light for my backup torch.
(In case you're curious, after that I start considering footwear, gloves, hats and other clothing.)
(Sorry, I'm feeling a bit lazy, so you'll have to live with bare links.)
This one is pretty popular for keychain use: www.amazon.com/iTP-A3-EOS-Flashlight--Upgrade/dp/B006K5C2EG/
Fenix has single AA and 123 powered lights that are well regarded and compact:
AA: http://www.amazon.com/Fenix-E11-Compact-Lumen-Flashlight/dp/B005GW8UC2
CR123: www.amazon.com/Fenix-Compact-140-Lumen-Flashlight/dp/B005CWRB44
There are a lot of other brands worthy of consideration too, of course (Fourseven's mini, Jetbeam, Klarus, Zebra, just to name a few).
There are also a lot of much larger but more capable flashlights out there.
Keychain stuff is always nice:
I use these sliver grippers way more than I thought I would. The convenience of always having them around is unparalleled: http://www.amazon.com/UNCLE-BILLS-SLIVER-GRIPPER-TWEEZER/dp/B001KMSUA4
I've been thinking of getting this, I'm a little leery about that much stuff for so little cost though: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003A5E5IK
I love this style of keyring, but it's way cheaper on eBay: http://www.amazon.com/Vigilant-Gear-Aircraft-Cable-Ring/dp/B006ZSP1PA
Little one-piece keychain tools have become really popular, and I really like having a little prying and screwing tool always present.
The Gerber Shard is cheap but probably at least worth what you pay for it: http://www.amazon.com/Gerber-22-01769-Shard-Keychain-Tool/dp/B002ZK45IQ
This one has a bit more functionality, and is made of the magically delicious titanium: http://www.amazon.com/Schrade-Chain-Tool-Seatbelt-Cutter/dp/B004PQJ1QO
Keychain multi-tools can be good.
Here's one from Gerber: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006M9NIDO
Supposedly the build quality isn't as good as Leatherman's though: http://www.amazon.com/Leatherman-64010101K-Micra-Multi-tool/dp/B000JCN0FG
I'd also recommend looking for a glow in the dark lanyard.
A pen you can EDC is another "you're surprised how often you use it" item. I have an Inka and it's definitely alright, though a bit fiddly: http://www.amazon.com/Nite-Ize-Inc-Inka-Pen/dp/B001E6R6EM/
The biggest competitor is the classic Fisher Bullet Space Pen: http://www.amazon.com/Fisher-Space-Pen-Bullet-400B/dp/B000WGD13U
Something to write on is nice. I'm a real child of the digital age, but I still like having an analog recording medium on me. I prefer Pentalic's pocket size books to Moleskine's. They're a little thicker, but they have a flexible cover, and are usually cheaper. Here's one: http://www.amazon.com/Pentalic-Travelers-Sketch-3-Inch-4-Inch/dp/B0025TZ35Q but I don't know if it's ruled or grid or what. I also prefer a bright color cover to make it easy to spot.
Continuing on the writing stuff matter, a sharpie and/or a metallic (ink) sharpie are nice to have. You can get sharpies with stainless steel cases too, which feel nicer to hold, and you're a little less likely to forget somewhere.
Black (dozen): http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00006IFEP
Stainless Steel: http://www.amazon.com/Sharpie-Stainless-Permanent-Marker-1747388/dp/B001V9LQLG
Metallic: http://www.amazon.com/Sanford-39108PP-Metallic-Sharpie-Permanent/dp/B00119QWCO
I think everybody should carry some sort of bandanna. I carry an off-brand buff (tubular bandanna) and an olive drab shemagh.
I like to carry a small baggie of what I call MacGuyver goods. Paracord (bound up in a hanayawa right now), some gorilla tape and electrical tape wrapped around a card, super glue, a sewing kit, zip ties, twist ties, rubber bands, safety pins, binder clips, and a few 1 quart ziplock freezer bags. (Like hell I'm finding links for all of those.)
Yet another "surprising how useful it turns out to be" item is a small mirror: http://www.amazon.com/Coghlans-Featherweight-Mirror/dp/B0047QV44O/
Whistles are useful for warning people of fire or danger, or calling for help, so I like to carry one: http://www.amazon.com/Fox-40-Whistle-Breakaway-Lanyard/dp/B00544UJC6
A monocular is fun to have on your person. This particular model is really great because of its super low minimum focusing distance, which lets you use it as a sort of loupe. In regular mode it's good for looking for house numbers or your car in a parking lot, that sort of thing: http://www.amazon.com/Brunton-Echo-7x18-Pocket-Scope/dp/B000FKMTBS
I think that's all I could come up with off the top of my head.
These are awesome.

I've heard that fine point sharpie pen caps are the perfect size.

Sharpie - Fine Point Pen (less than $5 for 2 pens)
WARNING INBOUND WALL OF TEXT SORRRrryyyyyyy
Um. Frankly? Stubbornness. I'm really bad about drawing daily as well though. Do you have a job where you idle a lot? When I worked in a call center, I just brought a sketchbook and pens with me and it gave me something to do with my hands. Really depends on your personality a lot too. If you're a structured person, maybe blocking out a set amount of time where you say, "I will draw for 45 minutes / hour." Also setting yourself mini-goals can help as well. Don't think of getting better at art as something you have to do all at once.
For me, I have sketchbooks that are kind of literally just full of studies. Like, okay, I'm going to draw 500 hands. (It starts out as a good idea but generally ends up being around 300 hands haha. 500 hands is pretty ridiculous. Start with like 50 or even 25.) This will take me a long time and it won't be the only thing I'll draw, but I'll complete 500 hands by x date. Also small incentives like, if I finish 500 hands by x date, then I will do y thing that I have wanted.
My brain doesn't work like this, though. I have severe ADHD and absolutely no internal reward system or self-control. For me I draw because if I don't I turn into a miserable flaming wreck of a human being. Ritalin has been helping with this but I have only been taking it for about a week. I'll let you know if it helps with consistency as time goes on.
There is no magic. Find something you love to draw - something you can't help but not draw. Maybe characters from your novel, maybe Sailor Moon, maybe Avatar the Last Airbender, or, heck, even fursonas or something. Find a thing you love to draw. Now draw that thing. Note where the weaknesses of your art are, learn to identify them or ask someone who can help you to do so. Then, learn a compartmentalized thing to work on, be it hands, feet, eyes, facial structure, anything.
I will also recommend an AWESOME subreddit called /r/sketchdaily - these guys do a topic a day, and you do a sketch a day on that theme. It spares you from going "ohgodwhatdoIdraw?" There are a tonne of resources and stuff on that page too.
Okay, so, here's some encouraging news. You're not in a bad starting place whatsoever. Like, really. This is actually pretty cool. You're showing that you've got some of the fundamentals of the body down, you're showing weight and mass through some basic shading and your line weight. Your lines are pretty careful and intentional and you've tried to convey emotion and even tension in the figure through her pose and her facial expression. Cool stuff. These are good details. If you like, I can redline it (draw lines over it to show you where things could be adjusted) - but you've actually got a pretty solid grasp on anatomy. I really like that the character has an unusual body shape and I love her hair.
To me, it basically it looks like you started maybe from anime or western cartoons and then tried to merge it into a more realistic style. Here's Sycra talking about styles! (All of his videos are super super super awesome. Go absorb them, they helped me out a lot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMUYG1hkY5c
I used to be really vehemently against anime for people starting out because it teaches a lot of bad habits, but tbh, draw what makes you happy, but don't ONLY draw anime or western comics. Young artists start out by drawing "symbols" of things. Like on your character's eyes here. You know sorta what the shape of an eye is, where it kinda goes on the face, but that's not what an eye looks like, and you know that and I know that. That is a "symbol" for an eye. Symbol drawing is super common and I do it too! So, to get away from that...? REFERENCE EVERYTHING If you wanna draw people, you have to know how they're put together and how everything depends on itself in terms of muscles and skeletal structure. My friend Sakky is a stock artist and she does great work for pose references: http://senshistock.deviantart.com/
Looks like you're working in gimp or SAI? (Photoshop's line tapering is butt so, if you're using Photoshop good goddamn nice.) So, I'm sorry, but I have to tear you away from the computer. What I usually tell people who are learning / starting out, is to put down the tablet and go pick up a sketchbook. Get the crappiest thing you can get - some kind of grade school spiral bound newsprint level 50lb paper thing. Seriously. The first thing is letting your brain relax about "not wasting media" because a cheap 2 dollar sketchbook isn't anything special. Get some Prismacolour Ebony drawing pencils and a decent eraser. Then, get yourself a Sharpie pen - one of the ones that doesn't bleed. These will be your tools from now on. These will be your tools for a long while before you get back to the tablet.
Canson makes good quality paper that won't frustrate you and 9x12 is a good starting space. Don't go any smaller for awhile. http://www.cheapjoes.com/canson-classic-cream-drawing-pad.html Noteably, Cheap Joes is an awesome site for budget art supplies, their student / house brand stuff is pretty class as well.
(Also I recommend Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain as a great starting place for doing / learning art. It's written in a very straightforward fashion that shows you not only how to draw, but how to think and see as an artist as well. (Here's a PDF copy:([https://neoalchemist.files.wordpress.com/2012/04/edwards-the-new-drawing-on-the-right-side-of-the-brain-viny.pdf] I learned to draw from this book and I've recommended it to just about everyone who I've met who wanted to learn to draw. It basically guides you through the fundamentals and then lets you fly free a bit on some other things.
SO YEAH. SORRY ABOUT THAT. Of course if anything needs clarifying, feel free to let me know. Thanks for sticking with me through all of that. I'll be streaming on my twitch stream later today for fun to get back into some sketching habits, so if you'd like, come by and say hello!

Dear sir or madam,
College is the rocketship Jesus tits of life. As an adult I yearn for a life where I have minimal responsibilities, loads of peers my age with plenty of free time, minimal downside risk in life, minimal financial burdens, tons of sexual options (all who happen to be around their lifetime physical peak), and being arrested or doing drugs really isn't taboo.
Get your shit done first (it's the low stress way to live), because if you do that then the rest of your time is actually FREE time. As in you're not trying to relax with a subtle knowledge that each moment you're relaxing is actually procrastination & as such is slightly fucking you over more than the last minute.
Once your shit is done go apply to every cool internship (so you can have a baller job someday - this will take you like 3-5 hours per year to find), go bike/skate/run/swim/whatever so you don't look like a slob, now take this fit body and choose an attractive clean person to hook up with, get a bottle of wine/tequila/beers once a week - get tipsy, smoke a J after you've done all of this, reflect on life, once you can save up a few grand (and don't blow it), someday you'll really really need it and rather than asking for a favor you'll be able to chill in your underwear at 30 & shill out unwanted advice to some ungrateful kid. Hopefully even maybe just a little bit encouraging him/her/whatever to enjoy this season of life... since it is the most fun they will likely ever have. Learn to get shit done & enjoy life while you're in college or just accept having a shitty life. Totally up to you.
Also,

Look at getting a nano paint pen. It makes eyes a lot easier. https://www.amazon.com/GSI-Creos-Gundam-Marker-Markers/dp/B0009AFN4Y
I don't alter with paint yet, but I hope to some day. I'm not good enough yet. Instead, I use Sharpies.
A lot of my best minimal alters start with erasing away ink (amazingly, pencil erasers get rid of 80-90% of ink) followed by ultra-fine-tip sharpies (get the 24-pack).
The tough part with erasing is not to erase too much, leaving white space where you wanted something to end. (for an example, look at the wing tip on my Birds of Paradise here.) If you have access to pure acetone, try it, but wear gloves and work in a well-ventilated area. Remember: nail polish remover is not pure acetone.
The tough part with sharpies is color-matching. You can blend ink a little if you draw two colors right next to each other and rub them with a moist napkin. (For an example, look at the shadow on the Bonesplitter in the same link above.)
Metallic ink pens can be surprisingly useful if you want to make something a little shiny. The blade of the Bonesplitter is colored over with a "copper" pen, and the effect is pretty nice.
If you only have one big black Sharpie, try this.
White-out is tough to deal with - very blotchy.
Regardless of what you use, test your materials on a chimney imp or storm crow first. (I practiced extending the legs on Flameborn Virion - surprisingly difficult for color-matching and detail.)
I got this set of erasable markers for a grateful journal. It's where you write down things you are grateful for to show that not all things suck. I love the markers and I really need to get back to doing that! I'm not sure why I stopped, except for the fact that I was grateful for the same things most days :)
I hope your hubby is able to tell them to shove off and get started building his dream.

Sharpie makes metallic paint markers that make metal edging super easy. Use the normal metalic markers, not the paint ones.

&#x200B;
Also a shot of alcohol like 20 minutes before painting and every hour or so after can help with the shaking. Fun fact, alcohol in a limited amount is a performance enhancing drug in competitive shooting because of its effects on steadying your hands.
But the sharpies work great. Youtube metallic sharpies 40k for some tutorials.

Not at all. It smears the writing a bit as it erases, then once you rub it enough, it turns completely clear/invisible.
I use these pens all day, every day and they have stood the test so far. I make a ton of mistakes usually when writing so these are a godsend.

And to top it off, my favorite: the microwavable 'smart notepad'.
Again, the ink turns clear at 140°, so this notebook allows you to write notes in the notebook with the Frixion pens/markers/highlighters and "reset" it by microwaving it for a few seconds. Best part is, you can scan the pages into perfect PDFs with their app. And you can mark the page to tell it where to save it to (email, Google Drive, Dropbox, local save, etc.) It finally started to break my habit of taking notes and never going back to them with this a couple months ago. I'm super psyched on them and I just wanna spread the gospel of Frixion 😃
Gundam model kits are, well, model kits, of mechs from some anime’s. They look very unique, check out r/gunpla for more. These specific markers are simple to use: just run them into the lines and done! I got this set, which I would recommend: https://www.amazon.com/Gundam-Marker-Value-TAIYO-Corporation/dp/B00HY93GHY/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1535925628&amp;sr=8-2&amp;keywords=gundam+panel+line+marker&amp;dpID=41KeV7gp0LL&amp;preST=_SX300_QL70_&amp;dpSrc=srch
Use gray for white, cream, etc. colors (I only used black here as a test); brown for red, yellow, green, etc.; and black for gray, brown, the rest.
Edit: they work well for tanks and terrain especially, where you don’t want to use a lot of wash but still want to have shadows. For them, I use a mix of this marker on the less deep shadows, and a bigger one on the deeper ones. Example: https://imgur.com/a/CycO1Wk the specific thick marker is the black one in this set: https://www.amazon.com/GSI-Creos-Gundam-Marker-Markers/dp/B0009AFN4Y/ref=sr_1_3?s=toys-and-games&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1535926026&amp;sr=1-3&amp;keywords=gundam+panel+line+marker+set&amp;dpID=51ay1SKBe8L&amp;preST=_SY300_QL70_&amp;dpSrc=srch I’m sure you can find one of these individually too, I’m just too lazy to find it right now.

As users have commented below, it is illegal to carry prescription drugs outside of their intended container.
A pillbox is a great idea if you're taking XR or something in the morning, before you leave your home, but otherwise, I would advise against it.
What I would suggest instead is getting small zip lock bags, labeling them with each week (I assume you have a 1 month supply) using a permanent marker, (the industrial sharpies work best, as regular sharpie tends to rub off the zip lock material.) putting them in the zip lock bags and then putting the ziplock bags into the prescription bottle.
This way you can pull out this week's bag and quickly count, for example, pulling out this week's bag from my bottle shows that I have 5 pills left, 1 for today, 2 for tomorrow, and 2 for friday. So I must have taken my pill this morning. (I already knew that, but you get the logic)
This is what works for me. It's easy, it's useful, and it's not illegal. Now, granted even if you put your pills in a ziplock in your pocket and walked around all day the chances of you getting thrown into jail for that is slim to none, but on the off chance you are searched by an officer for some reason, hey, it happens, you probably want to be safe, rather than sorry.
However the thing about productivity tips, especially when it comes to people with ADHD is that everyone is different, this method may not work for you, but I hope at least it was thought provoking enough for you to find one that does.
I can vouch for this. Used Sharpie and my girlfriend thought I bought another pair of headphones. Used one of these to make sure the ink didn't come off.
Final result looks like this
Enjoy the cans, they were my first pair of good headphones and now I'm hooked.
I had a very unique style of notes, but here's what worked best for me:
So in my junior year I realized that I hated carrying around hundreds of pages of blank paper all the time and so I only printed up about ten pages of note paper at a time. I found a template for Cornell style notes and just printed out my own note paper each week. The multicolored pens worked great for me because I could look back and my notes would all be organized. For example, raw notes were in black, equations in blue, examples in green, questions in red, and anything related to an exam was in every color. Then, I just followed the Cornell note-taking style for note review and it worked out great for me. I had well-organized notes (that people often asked for) and never had to lug around pounds of blank paper that I wasn't going to use.
tl;dr- colored pens for unique note items and self-printed Cornell notes
You can find more links to an example of how I took notes, as well as a link to a printable PDF for Cornell note paper here
Sharpie pen, not to be confused with the Sharpie ultra fine permanent markers. They are not the same ink as the permanent markers, but do have the same ultra fine point. They do not bleed, and they write like a dream. I have shitty handwriting, and these pens make it legible.

I adore fine point sharpies. Have you seen this set? So many pretty colors!
I played Warhammer Fantasy before they killed it, so I had my share of painting miniatures and thought the same as you. Then I read where someone used fine-tipped sharpies to "color" their fighters, and I tried it out and it's awesome and easy and so much less messy. I bought these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0003WN0CA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1
I don't do any kind of basecoat, just immediately start drawing on the fighters out of the box and it looks good enough.
Not sure if you've already ordered from jetpens, but I found this set on Amazon today:
https://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B00YGRBPX4/ref=ox_sc_act_image_2?smid=A42M065P3FFTF&amp;psc=1
I'm from Canada too, and I spent a lot of time searching for them. Those ones seem like the best bet, since the order is filled by Amazon! Plus it makes ordering so much easier because there's no exchange rate to worry about!
Thanks! For this one, I used a Frixion Fineliner that I picked up in Japan. I've also used another frixion pen from this pack too: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F9MYPCS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1.
I've always used the industrial sharpies (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00006IFEP) Both ends, once as close to the boot as possible, and once about 9in up the length of it.
It's awfully permanent though, so if you need to re-label you're basically hosed.

Though it's not technically for building, some fine-point markers (like this 8 pack, though I have a few I've been looking at) would do wonders for helping me improve my artwork since I'd be able to add so many details to my drawings that I just can't do with my wider-tipped points.
I'm looking into getting a pack of gundam markers. specifically [this one] (https://smile.amazon.com/GSI-Creos-Gundam-Marker-Markers/dp/B0009AFN4Y/ref=sr_1_4?s=toys-and-games&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1484805122&amp;sr=1-4&amp;keywords=gundam+marker) and have a question. It says the green is "metallic green" does that mean it has a shiny color?
What I'm trying to use it for is to cover up some nub marks that I wasn't able to properly get rid of via sanding on my [Julieta's Mobile Reginlaze HG] (https://smile.amazon.com/Bandai-Hobby-Julietas-Reginlaze-Building/dp/B01ICR1WHM/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1484806012&amp;sr=1-1&amp;keywords=julieta%27s+mobile+reginlaze) *The actual model is more green than in the amazon listing where it appears more blue-ish due to the lighting I think. Would the green in that marker pack work for that?
I use these in my lab and they are resistant to EtOH and water, but not things like acetone or xylene. They work for me for most of my daily tasks, and they write nice and fine.
Welcome back!

Dry Erase Markers so that I can hang up pictures on my white board, draw all over it, so that I can make the connections, to figure out where the person who stole my bank card is, so I can hunt them down, and bring them to justice.
This is the basic one but you can also get more detailed ones. As well as the mat with two different tones on each side I found the two tone flip mat to be more than enough most of the time but I also got the multi terrain pack for more niche uses.
I use these pens. The paizo site claims you can use permanent markers and I'm sure it works fine but wet erase markers are just so perfect, no smudge easy wipe off.
A word of warning the maps do fold down so there are very obvious creases in the mats when you lay them out so make sure you chuck some books on them for a bit before the game starts. We normally just pile our dnd books on top until we need to use it.
Make sure to check out amazon or w/e because these mats are often sold as cheap if not cheaper on their. Also Paizo shipping can be quite a bit depending on where you live!
Good luck!

I use gold, silver, and copper paint markers specifically gundam markers and sharpies
For the gundam markers I got the metallic gundam marker set: https://www.amazon.com/GSI-Creos-Gundam-Metallic-Marker/dp/B00KBRFOIU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1467993243&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=gundam+marker+metallic
The gold and silver from that set is super useful but the other colors less so, they're okay but can be really uneven in the color they put out so I'd suggest for the other colors only for small and very few spots on a kit to lower your chances of getting inconsistent color (again though this is not a problem with the gold and silver they're great)
For the sharpies I used a metallic marker pack that I bought at Wal-Mart that has gold, silver, and bronze: https://www.amazon.com/Sharpie-Metallic-Permanent-Assorted-1829201/dp/B007QNWC3M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1467993555&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=Metallic+sharpie+markers (It was like this pack, same markers but only one of each and it was really cheap like around $3-$5)
The sharpies are great they don't really spill like the gundam markers can but the downside to them is that they can kind of streak easily especially on bigger surfaces and they can rub off fairly easily which is great for cleaning areas where you accidentally covered, but can be a little frustrating when the color rubs away on areas that you wanted the metallic color (top coat helps protect the paint)
They don't make very neat lines, but sharpie gel highlighters don't smear the ink.
Yeah, I drew it. I was using a Prismacolor Premier brush tip marker in size B. I got it in a set with a few different colors but I honestly don’t really use them that much. It’s a fine marker but there are definitely some better options out there. Lately I’ve been using the Pentel Fude Sign Pens more than the Prismacolor but they both get the job done.

I tend to shoot for $2.50/pen. A Sharpie pen stays on my person at all times—great for sketching and writing. A Zebra F-301 stays in my bag for client meetings, although I'm ready to make the upgrade to an F-701.
I use industrial sharpies or recently have been using "secureline markerII.Superfrost markers

I've found these to work fairly well. The only thing I haven't been too thrilled about, is that after maybe a dozen sessions, some of the edges are fraying. A little bit of superglue fixes it though, so I'm still quite happy with them.
The advantage is it let's you draw things up ahead of time, and you can keep portions of the floorplan/dungeon concealed until the players actually enter the room.
Combine them with a good multi-colored set of dry erase markers, and you can prep some decent looking maps ahead of time, while still keeping things as surprises for the players.

You should probably hop on Amazon and order a pound of dice so that you'll have enough d20s, d10s, and d8s for everyone.
If you play around a table, the Paizo dry-erase mat is the best bang-for-your-buck map; even with a deluxe pack of dry-erase markers it's still cheaper and far more versatile than any five actual map packs you might buy. The grid is one-inch squares. Your players can use almost anything for miniatures: toy soldiers, chess pieces, Lego minifigs on pedestals, etc. You can use expensive minis for big showcase bad guys, or cheap plastic knights from a dollar store. You can even cut 3/4-inch-wide strips of index cards, tape them into triangles, and write "ORC" on them. (Write "BIG ORC" on the leader in extra-dark sharpie, to really scare your players.)
If you have a projector or a tablet that the players can use to see the action, then you can use MapTool to make all of your maps ahead of time and do everything on a screen. The map and token creation tools are simple to learn. If a player has to remote in then Google Hangouts, Skype, or any other audio+video conference tool can be matched up to your MapTool session to create a virtual tabletop that the players can share.

price history
I bought a laminating machine for about $20. You could always just stick the sheet in a plastic protecting sleeve, they're about ~$3 for a pack of 25.
These are the pens I use, they don't wipe off as easily as dry erase and they write a very fine line, good for details.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004SZ0YYU/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
You could always just print a bunch of copies of those sheets, especially if you have your encounters planned in advance. I just like to re-use my materials a lot so I don't have to refresh my gaming kit ever.
