PentelFine Tip XFP Fude Pen Battery – Ink Pigmentation

Great tip quality, with enough practice you can achieve fine and thick strokes with just one tool. This brush is the only thing I use to ink my drawings.

I don’t think the fine tip is really necessary. You can control the thickness of the larger brush pens with a little practice. If that sounds like a lot of work, keep in mind that these “fine tip” brushes can also make pretty thick lines. So you still need control. These brushes are still great. I love them. But I probably will buy the regular tip.These would probably be really great for someone doing hand lettering or calligraphy.

I figured this Ultra fine point brush pen would be more fine than the extra fine brush however it turns out the model labeled extra fine pen is the finest of the 2. The Ultra fine is a little bit longer than the extra fine and they are both still great.

My daughter is quite the drawer and this pen is amazing with the fine details and it doesn’t smear.

Yeah yeah I had to squeeze it like almost every single word! Better option is to dip it in the ink (as I did), it worked a lot better that way, no need to squeeze anymore (I feel annoyed by it sometimes). So far so good, the brush is smooth and fine.

The brush tip is just firm enough to mark a clean straight line and yet with a little pressure one can mark a broard thick line. The ink is fast drying which can be a plus or minus if it's the intention of the user to smudge the ink to create a shadow effect in a drawing. From my experience using it on semi regular basis (not in a professional merely a hobbyist capacity) its good for inking drawings. The only problem thus far is when using it one has to keep the brush moving on the paper to allow the ink to flow consistently if one pauses while say inking a drawing its recommend to gentle squeeze the mid point of the body the brush pen to get it flowing again or put the cap back on and gentle shack in a downward motion. This is a product I would buy again and or purchase in various colors

Received my Fine Tip brush pen today and so far so good. Definitely going to need some practice to control my hand to finesse the weight of the lines. The brush tip remained nice and juicy throughout my sketch, no need to prime the tip more than once. There is absolutely no comparison between a felt tip pen/fineliner vs this Pentel Brush Pen. Important Note---you must remove the RED RING by unscrewing the pen just under the black brand label before using this pen. (It might be a good idea to hold onto the red ring for traveling purposes (?) You will see the ink advance into the bristles by slowly and gently squeezing the barrel. I did a quick line and wash and I'm happy to say the ink didn't smear when I applied my watercolor paint. You can't beat the price for a brush pen that lays down crisp lines that is also waterproof!
