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

These pens are an old standby for me. Great for drawing. They form consistent lines and do not bleed. Waterproof so if you want to use watercolor paint over the lines you can. Highly recommended, and I would suggest trying out different sizes, although my personal favorite are the 005s.

Great pens for drawing details and I have been using these for over 22 years. When you need to put vey fine details into a piece of art these pens are efficient and super fine and are very hard to smear even if you build up the ink.

I’ve been using these for years for note taking in my Bible. I love the fine point and that they don’t bleed through the paper. Different colors allow me to track themes. The ink dries immediately and the pens last a long time.

Best pens. Definitely worth the money.

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!

Love these ink pens.

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.

I usually get the 005, 01, 03, and 05 versions, but they all keep these things consistent: Great durability/life span, they dry really quick so there's barely any smudging chance (unless you have really oily hands or rub the page as soon as you make a line), and writing/drawing with them feels smooth.
