Type of review

The pen stopped working on the first day of drawing. I'm not sure if the ink had dried or if some dirt had blocked the ink. I tested it on oil paintings on wood and canvas but it stopped working. For an $8 pen, that's really expensive. The only thing I like is 0.1mm very accurate drawing, the product needs better design, better quality control.

Pros
  • Pigment ink for drawing
Cons
  • Can't remember

Good but not perfect

This is a good pen but it has a bit of flow around the edges and if it doesn't have enough time to dry it smudges especially with a light touch when using a ruler or template. I use Leuttchurm 1917 notepads and this pen doesn't fit very well, but it might if you need to go through lines more than once or twice. It is better to draw with lines than to write. Doesn't dry quickly and has a nice dark line with no gaps. Holds even with slight pressure.

Pros
  • High lightfastness
Cons
  • Can't remember but there was something

My current favorite crayon

Love this crayon! I'm a watercolor painter and I like to sketch small scenes and then add them in watercolor. I use some very nice Micron pens and love them, but one of my favorite colors for landscapes is sepia. I have a favorite sketch of pine cones on a branch that I really enjoy doing and it looks a lot better sketched in sepia before painting. This pen glides over my watercolor paper and I use cold press paper of varying roughness (depending on the brand). I had a lot of fun drawing with…

Pros
  • Odorless, acid free, pH neutral
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
