Pigma 50047 Micron Blister Card Ink Pen Set, Black/Sepia, 003/005 Black/Sepia 4CT

My favorite pens for inking. They last a long time and the nibs are always on point, plus, the inking is waterproof once dry if you want to watercolor over it

High quality as expected. I love the precision I can get with these whether drawing with them or for writing descriptions on very small price tags used on my jewelry. Highly recommend!

These are consistently the best liner pens you can buy. I have tried MANY cheaper brands and always go back to Microns. The ink flow is always smooth and the lines are always consistent!

Arrived quickly and many tip sizes. You will need for the ink to dry but still good. Price, quality, and arrival time all great.

I’ve used various Micron pens before, all in black ink with different line widths/tips. None have been terribly long-lasting, but only the chisel tip has been a true disappointment. I recently got a journaling bible and some of the reviews for journaling bibles in general recommend Micron 003 and 005 for the thin paper. The star of this 4-pack is the sepia ink. It’s a lovely shade and a nice variation on the usual black. I thought I was prepared for how thin the points are on the 003 and 005, but nope—I almost thought all of them were defective, missing nibs completely, until I looked more closely! That being said, I’m getting used to them and appreciate the lack of bleed-through on thin paper. I won’t be using them for my normal journaling/keeping an agenda because they are so thin but they’re great for use on thin paper and, I’d imagine, detailed sketching. I’m considering finding the sepia ink color in one of the normal-nib Microns because it’s quite nice, like I said.

These are wonderful for extra fine lines and detail. The biggest complaint is the tips wear down. I got them beginning of November, it is now middle of December and the .005 tip is almost gone. Pen on top has not been used yet, lower is the one used.

Just as expected for quality and shipping

For those of you who do zentangle, this is a great alternative to black and white or even the use of different colors. I purchased a pack of ivory blank cards with envelopes here and have been having a blast making zentangle greeting cards using this sepia ink (the ivory also looks good with black ink). This set has 4 drawing pens-- one is .1, which is smaller than I was taught zentangle with, but I enjoy using it for very intricate work. The .5 is what I'd mostly used, and it works just like the .5 black ink (except in sepia). Same for the 1 Graphic pen. The Brush pen was new to me, and it has been a little difficult to work with in that it has a tendency to show brush strokes, or lighter and darker areas if I don't go over it 2 or 3 times. Still, even with that issue, it's good to fill in large areas that would take much longer with the Graphic 1 pen. I really enjoy the color-- I'm a fan of the old sepia photos. I would like to see more pen sets like this in other colors-- maybe navy or dark gray. Btw, Thank You Amazon! I never would have found this locally. I can barely find the .5 and 1 Graphic pens in black, and they are usually out of stock!
