Review on Waterproof Black Ink Brush Tip Copic Multiliner SP Waterproof Pigment Brush Pen (MLSPBP) by Amanda Castillo

I've tried several brush pens and so far this is my favorite. In Japan, Copic is arguably the most popular of the "big brands" for drawing and writing manga comics. The ink is by far the blackest I've tried and is (mostly) waterproof. The brush tip is nothing special but works well enough. Presumably the tip is interchangeable, but I haven't tried it; If the tip starts to get rough, it's probably better to swap out the entire handle and keep the old one (try sanding it down a bit!) for some unique effects. The brushed aluminum feels nice and the weight isn't bad, although I wish it was a bit heavier or longer. , Black (66621), which comes in many colors, but I recommend black and sepia. Alternatively, you can fill a water brush like the Yasutomo Niji Waterbrush, Small with water-soluble ink and water; This is what I prefer, but it's a bit messy so you have to be careful. However, for rich blacks, use Copic Multiliner. A few artists I know have found brush pens they like better than these at art stores or exhibitions in Japan, but they are only available there or from independent importers in the US, and if I ask, they can never remember brand names . For convenience and price, stop at Copic, be happy and create great works of art!
