I use Pitt Artist Pens, Brush Tip for everything from sketching to fine art. They are durable, pigmented, light fast and the ink lasts a long time. I found out with two successive sets of 48 that they do survive being stored for years and then used, no problem. Eventually I gave my old set to my granddaughter and took the plunge for the set of 60 full range.Wow! The additional 12 colors all filled gaps, from new tints to much needed greens and blues and a true fiery red. The big set is still amazingly convenient and the brush tips allow fine detail, thick-thin line, easy texturing and fairly easy fill-ins by leaning them on angle to sweep a broad stroke with the side of the tip. This helps to keep the fine point from mashing down.Big Brush are fun too. Anyone ... MoreI use Pitt Artist Pens, Brush Tip for everything from sketching to fine art.

Anyone who likes a round brush over a flat may prefer these to chisel tip markers for marker art - and unlike Tombow dual tip, these are permanent and lightfast for fine art! Great for mixed media and for sketching under pastels.

Faber-Castell is quality across the board. The Pitt India Ink Brush Pens are one of my favorite art supplies for over a decade. Previously Ive gotten dozens of the sampler packages, this is my first boxed set. Excitingly there are numerous colors here that dont come in smaller soft pack sets. While I keep my other Brush Pens in old tin, this box folds to create a stand and sections pull out in tiers. Without hesitation these earn a high praise, you cant go wrong on these. As a professional artists they provide such a great finish, they are good at any skill level..

I use these for coloring books. I have four or five of the 6-pen packs, and together they provide a great range, if a bit heavy in blues, yellows, browns, and greys. I'm obviously not an artist, and my experience with pens is rather limited, but I absolutely love using these pens. When used with a light stroke they feel like a small paint brush, and they can be used for quite delicate work.
