Sakura 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.

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.

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 love these because they come in .005 ML point. Perfect for the fine work that I have to do. They last a long time. They are a rich, black and give good coverage. They give a perfectly fine line with no bleeding. Tips do not wear out. Although be careful not to run them over wet areas or they stop working. I always have these on hand. Never want to run out. Buying them in a multi pack is a good price.

I use these pens all the time to do art work. The 005 has the fine line I need and the ink is permanent and dries quickly. I can erase a pencil sketch underneath and once dry, the ink will not smear. It's easier to use these pens than the ones you can refill - the finer the line the harder refillable ones are to clean and keep from clogging. I like these pens.

These pens are great for adding notes to my Bible. The ink is dark, dries quickly, is permanent and non-smearing, and doesn't bleed through the thin pages. The tip is fine enough for small print. I hope Sakura keeps making these pens without change.

So these are great and work well in my Hobonichi Cousin (Tampe River paper). But I am having issues with the nib of a couple of pens not writing smoothly (skipping). I hope that it's just this batch, but figured I'd mention it.

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!

Wonderful for those of us with small handwriting. Excellent pigment/colour saturation. Doesn't bleed through my Hobonichi, Sterling Ink, Hibino, or Stalogy paper. Only wish more colours were available in general, and especially at the smaller sizes.

amazing

It's my favorite brand of markers for precise drawing. I love them!

i love these i love how smooth they are and how fine they write and i love them for my bible journaling notes. a must have for me now!

Very fine tip indeed, something I increasingly use. The resulting line can virtually disappear under watercolour, or you can go over the lines again later to make them more prominent. They don't last long; the tips are easy damaged. So I buy them in quantity.
