PIGMA Micron Set 10 Gray/Black

Love these pens. Definitely better than the other alternative pens I used when I was younger and the pens would clog. Cleaning was a pain too for those old refill art pens. The pens do come in various colors and are workable for my needs.

Sakura has the best quality fine liners. The grey palette is super versatile. I like the variety of widths and LOVE that there's a variety of 4 sizes in the light grey and 4 in the medium grey. The brush pens (1 of the 4 sizes) are great for calligraphy with medium flexibility. The finer lines (01, 05) almost have a pencil drawn effect which is great if you want something more subtle vs. dark black with high contrast. Looking forward to trying the Sepia colored set soon.

I've always preferred micron pens, and these are excellent. I like sketching in pen, but black pens make it hard to build off of them. In addition, these are, of course, great for shading. I like to sketch in the light grey first, do line art with the 003 black pens (not in this pack), and shade with both the light and dark greys. Although you only get two grey tones, with a combination of solid shading and crosshatching I can get a much wider range of tones than with only black. If you already like microns I highly recommend these. If you are new to microns be aware that they are a bit delicate, so always press lightly as possible, especially the smallest sizes. The brush pens, frankly, are not very good, as they fray really quickly. They keep a bit longer if you use it on smoother paper, but will likely still be the first ones in your collection to go. If you need a brush pen, look into refillable (fiber) brush pens or refillable watercolor pens. The ones I've tried tend to come with different ink (usually water based or lower quality) than these here, but you can buy the ink elsewhere. Be aware that these greys lean just a tad cooler, so if you absolutely need a warm grey then search elsewhere.

I have been sketching now for about 7 years, you won’t find me without a micron. I love the grey pens but only seem to find them in this multiple pack.

I use these for my line & wash watercolors. Love the size variety. Dries super fast. Won't bleed.

The markers are in the same quality of Sakura pens, for your outlines, dynamic drawing to enjoyable writing. The lighter grey is good for outlines for rough ideas. The other grey is nice for adding detail to scrollwork!

These are my primary pens I use for my sketch book pen and ink work. These are very high quality, the thickness of each pen really holds. The ink flows nicely. Sometimes it is easy to push too hard on the .003 mm pen so be careful to not beat it up the .003 pen it is a very thin tip. Other than that these pens are my go-to set for most all of my sketches. 5-stars.

Received these in a timely manner. They were well packed. The colors were perfect for my needs.

Love these pens

Muy fino bien

I buy these pens regularly. I use them for drawing and scribbling. They are appreciated by professional artists and myself.

They are my favourite pens draw my art.

Dos de los estilografos no sirvieron, llegaron secos y como no los ocupé en cuanto me llegaron, ya no pude reclamar.
