Review on Graphic Liner Needle Point Drawing by Carla Anderson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Blackest black ink of Sturdy Fine ROLLER BALL nibs = WIN WIN

Oh my god Ohto's graphic liner has changed my mind about fine needlepoint pens and rollerballs. This is the blackest ink I have ever used. (Pigma Micron, Tombow, Windsor & Newton even my favorite varsity pins) and runs so smoothly. It lies flat on paper without the usual "braking" you get from other thin liners. I can have a heavy hand, that's an old bad habit and the Ohto just keeps running without complaint, even at 0.3mm. best advice. I don't know how Ohto managed to get this quality of rollerball technology in pens but they did it and it could be a game changer! You can hold it at a normal pen/pencil writing angle with no line degradation. If you need to fill them up - they flow so fast and beautifully! If they say they're waterproof, I'll check. much water. It never budged on watercolor paper, sketch paper, or old plain cardboard. I literally dripped water from a droplet right onto the edge of the drawn area. Not a jet, a few drops of water, everything has accumulated. I would like to see the dimensions of their handles correspond to millimeters; But they're not the only ones dreaming up the dimensions, are they? Get a chart. The set ranges from 0.3mm to 1.5mm. I found myself mostly with the two best. When they start getting even better I'll be there to buy it. How about 002, Otto?! Please? :) This is a trick anyone can add to their arsenal of art tools, and extra affordable if you can snag them on sale! Enjoy! This is the best pen for art and gel pen drawing in a boring meeting. On steroids!
