“Arty stuff” for an 8yo boy

My godson has asked for “arty stuff” for Christmas. He already has a good supply of the basics.

Can anyone suggest something he might like-unusual ideas especially welcome (ie not a set of paints or whatever as he already has that). Budget to about £50. Thank you!

Posca pens are hugely popular at the moment with kids/teens (I think YouTube is to thank for this!)
Hobby Craft have some half price right now:

You could get him some art supplies with this, someone has made a whole thread on posca pens & there are lots of suggestions on there if you're interested.

No problem, I have bought some for my 10year old for Christmas as they're top of the list!

Foil scrape sets, sorry can't remember the name. What about a 3d pen I got my 13 year old son one and he loved it.

DS 8 is getting fabric pens and some cheap white t shirts so he can do his own designs…
