You can get a nice watercolorey look from ChartPak's, but they're also ammonia based.

Yeah,  I bought a set of these Bic MarkIts for the color selection. They don’t have quite as bad if a toxic smell that Sharpies can have. But still a little.

I'm a big fan of Staedtler fineliners. They come in 8 colors and 4 tip weights: superfine, fine, medium, and broad (chisel tip).
