Review on Sakura 50075 Pigma Micron 05 Cube Collection: 16-Piece Assorted Color Ink Pen Set by Hannah Curi

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good pens, dark colors

These are very good pens, they appear to be well made and so far they all work (other reviewers have not reported dry pens). I would have liked to give them 5 stars but decided to give 4 because the colored tips on the bottom of the pens I assumed represented the color of the ink. Couldn't be further from the truth. The pens are almost all very, very dark, so much so that you can't tell dark blue from dark green - they mostly appear black. Some pens are a bit lighter, but I can honestly say that no marker comes close to pastel colors. The pink tip pen is actually a dark fuchsia. I just don't get it - the only clue we have about the color of the nib is the color on the barrel, at least that's what I thought was the goal. I think I'm wrong about that.
