I see there are a few varietys of copics...Which ones are the best????

i´m using ciao, they said it´s the same but it´s smaller, but still rechargeable. my set is 72 colors "B" , an "A" and a "C" is made too, so 216 colors in total, each one with a caracteristic of colors.

Well i got myself some Copics that arrived today and heres my first attempt at using them...I know its a bit rough and for some reason my permant pen that i lined the owl with decided to bleed when touched by the colour...Is this normal? or are there better pens out there for outlining the piece first?...And i find it hard to blend reds into another colour!
Im going to give this a good trial and see if i can improve enough to be truly happy with future pieces...As i said its a bit rough so go easy on me chaps!

normal canson 140 g/m2

Canson watercolor paper? I'm still trying to find a paper that I like using with copic markers. I want to buy a few more so that I get the right 'families' so that they blend well.
