SAKURA Pigma Micron Fineliner Pens, 08 Tip Size, Archival Black Ink, 6 PK 50039

The best pens full.of pigment for my wedding event! The names written on the hearts should last a very long time GREAT buy!!!

These pens flow well and are compatible with left-handed writers. The ink doesn't bleed anywhere near as bad as it's competitors and they are super accurate if you want them to be. Depends are well built and the ink doesn't stink.

This brand is the gold standard of lettering pens in my opinion. They are smooth and saturated. The multipack offers different tip sizes. I have generally found the ultra thin ones to wear out quickly, but .45 and up have been great.

Sakura products excel in providing quality pens for both the professional and hobbyist. These pens function smoothly and the ink lasts a long time without drying out.

I love these pants and use them all the time

Micron pens aren't felt tip pens or any type of pen other than one with a thin tube as the nib. The tube size varies with the size of the pen (005 being the smallest known to me, and 08 being the biggest).Since the nibs are just tubes, the smaller sizes get blocked with dirt pretty easily, and the dirt gets stuck in the tube, stopping the ink from flowing and ruining the pen. I don't know if there's any fix for that problem, but I've destroyed a few 005s by trying to write on stuff that isn't paper (namely, trying to write over paint on my desk).Pressing too hard with the pen can make the tube bend and stop the ink from flowing, again ruining the pen.Other than that, I haven't had any issues with the pens. The ink doesn't smear once it's on the paper unless you write faster than it can dry (it dries pretty quick).I've used every size of Micron, from 005 to 08 and even the brush tip, for drawing and writing since I bought an 005 at a little office shop in my town, and after learning that the nib can get blocked or bent I haven't ruined a pen.As far as I can tell, using Copic, Winsor & Newton, or Prismacolour Premier markers to colour in your drawings won't smear the line unless you try to colour immediately after inking.I've only used the black pens, and I don't plan on purchasing any new ones for a while, but I would imagine that a sepia (or really any other colour Sakura has out there) pen would share most if not all of these attributes.

I have been using these pens professionally (for illustration and technical work) for years and they only seem to get better. They are a good solid black that flows easily, and dries almost instantly, allowing me to erase my pencils as soon as the drawing is done, and then get right to work on watercolors (I usually take a break for safety's sake, but there are times I've gone right in with color...with no problems).For illustration, the various widths allow me to pick a pen and draw, and not think so much about my pen line being correct. The tips are firm, and even so, they are responsive, so with a little pressure more or less I can still get a slightly varied line.The few times I have to do something more technical, I hold them like a technical pen (vertically), and with an even pressure they produce a great line.I've recommended them to young students in cartooning classes because of the ease and consistency of use. All a child has to learn is not to smash the tip (kids seem to tend to draw heavy).They have a large ink supply and stay moist for years. Caps have a solid click lock.I have nothing that's not good to say about these pens.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

great detail pens
