Sakura Pigma Micron pen 005 Black ink marker felt tip pen, Archival pigment ink, fine point for artist drawing pens - 8 pen set

Sakura is in anyones discussion for the best finalizers available . There is personal preference and we are artists but so far I haven't found better

Writing goes from utility to art when you write or draw with these pens. I have worn out hundreds of them and nothing at all compares!

after reading the reviews i was worried id only get 4 pen or they'd be out of ink but I got all 8 and all of them works fine.

Excellent for fine details in various art projects (embroidery, model building, etc.). Doesn't smudge and doesn't bleed.

One of the best... Perhaps a bit scratchy for some... But I can't get lines like this out of much of any other pen.

I love these because they come in .005 ML point. Perfect for the fine work that I have to do. They last a long time. They are a rich, black and give good coverage. They give a perfectly fine line with no bleeding. Tips do not wear out. Although be careful not to run them over wet areas or they stop working. I always have these on hand. Never want to run out. Buying them in a multi pack is a good price.

I've used these pens for years and have always liked them. However, I am finding that they are wearing out rather quickly. The nibs wear down. But, I like the variety of sizes, and when I get tired of having to replace them, I have another brand (cheaper) that doesn't wear down that quickly, if at all.

As a professional artist and illustrator who works in pen and ink extensively, I have used Sakura's Pigma Micron 005 ink pens for 29 years and have always been very pleased with the results. These are great precision drawing pens with a super-fine line. Excellent for hand-drawn graphics, character concept art, comics, graphic novels, cartoons, and any precision line art or illustration you wish to create. The fast drying archival ink does not fade or bleed when dry which makes them ideal for use with watercolors and water soluble bottled color inks or illustration markers .They perform well on a variety of papers, from economy sketch tablets and sheets of copy paper to art papers like water color papers, Bristol card stock, illustration board, or cotton fiber print making papers. If you are new to working with these pens, be careful to not apply forceful pressure while drawing or writing since the miniature felt tip is delicate and can break. Tip breakage can also occur if the pen falls and strikes point-first, but even with a broken felt tip, you can still draw with it, so long as you don't scrape the metal ferrule into the paper. Practice a light pressure and delicate stroke when using these pens and they will last through many drawings before the ink runs out. Highly recommended!
