SAKURA Pigma Micron Fineliner Pens - Archival Black and Gray Ink Pens - Pens for Writing, Drawing, or Journaling - Assorted Point Sizes - 10 Pack

This set of Sakura Pigma pens offers a really nice range of grays and tips. The archival quality ink looks great and doesnt bleed. I tested on a wide range of papers with good results. The 10 tips ensure you can get the desired effects every time. Sakura pens are always high quality and easily recommended.

Ive always preferred micron pens, and these are excellent. I like sketching in pen, but black pens make it hard to build off of them. In addition, these are, of course, great for shading. I like to sketch in the light grey first, do line art with the 003 black pens (not in this pack), and shade with both the light and dark greys. Although you only get two grey tones, with a combination of solid shading and crosshatching I can get a much wider range of tones than with only black. If you already like microns I highly recommend these. If you are new to microns be aware that they are a bit delicate, so always press lightly as possible, especially the smallest sizes. The brush pens, frankly, are not very good, as they fray really quickly. They keep a bit longer if you use it on smoother paper, but will likely still be the first ones in your collection to go. If you need a brush pen, look into refillable (fiber) brush pens or refillable watercolor pens. The ones Ive tried tend to come with different ink (usually water based or lower quality) than these here, but you can buy the ink elsewhere. Be aware that these greys lean just a tad cooler, so if you absolutely need a warm grey then search elsewhere.

Mostly grays and a few blacks. Smooth pigment placement. Good color. This is a brand I already enjoyed using in my bullet journals. Great for a variety of art applications. No complaints or regrets.

I have been using Sakura pens for nearly 25 years, and they continue to be just as consistently good quality as ever. Micron is not playing around. These are well-made, the ink is exceptional. If you like Sakura you will love how versatile this grey set is. I can think of dozens of uses beyond just illustration. I think they will be in regular rotation in the bullet journal pen case and I cannot wait to try them for all the new themes I have planned for 2022!

Ive had a set of all black pens like this in the past but I wanted to mix things up a bit for when Im writing on different shades of paper and these work exactly how I wanted them to, the gray brush pens and the thicker tipped pens are excellent for adding shadows to letters or drawings so Im beyond pleased with the performance of them.

If you have a thing for pens, and lets be real- if youre reading this you do. The greys are SOO COOL. Great brand, great set.

these are the best drawing pens ever, period. they dont smudge or bleed and the assortment is fantastic. i love how theyre all numbered and labeled on top for easy location. if you do a lot of ink drawings these are a must have.

These are my favorite pens as they come in a wide variety of tips and have a long life. While these are waterproof - they do say they are not made for going through the washing machine. I do use mine to write on tags and they last for about 11 months of going through the washer. 10 pen set includes 1 each of 4 points sizes in Light Cool Gray and Cool Gray: Micron 01 - 0.25 mm, Micron 05 - 0.45mm, Micron 10 - 0.60mm fineliner pens and Pigma Brush + Micron 05 & Micron 10 in GRAY ink. Pigma pigment based ink is waterproof, chemical and fade resistant, bleed free, quick drying and pH neutral. Pigma ink colors are derived from single pigment colors for color consistency. Non-Toxic Long lasting No bleeding Works well for watercolors as it will not bleed when wet! Fair price

As an artist, I am always using whatever medium I can get my hands on to do various types of artwork. Finding a good assortment of Micron Pens is not always easy for me. This pack is wonderful. HOW THESE COME The package these come in is fantastic. Not only does it give the measurements and shape of the head, but it marks the place where the pen is with how it looks. It is excellent as a reference for a quick access to grab the pen I want ARE THE PENS MARKED? The pens are marked at the tops with color and size. They also have letters to indicate what kind of tip. VARIOUS TIPS I love the various sizes of the tips. Having a brush tip in the bunch is also fantastic. PERFORMANCE I have uploaded a picture I drew. It was a copy of a rubber stamp (I made it much larger) that someone did a demo of with markers. I drew mine freehand with these micron markers. I used gray and black. As you can see from the picture, the alcohol markers did not smear the gray or black micron pens. THE BOTTOM LINE I love these pens. They are still pretty new but I have used them a lot. I hope they wont dry out fast. I will update if they do. MY RATING FIVE STARS. This is a fabulous assortment of color and shapes. I love that they are marked on the package too. I hope to store them in there for now until I cant anymore. The marked spots are great for reference and quick use.
