About this deal

The plastic shield over all but the very end of the tip means this pen won’t leave ink on your ruler if you lay out pages in a DIY planner. A ton of pens will look totally dry and fine on the page, but will immediately bleed when watercolor is applied on top. Pigma® ink, invented by Sakura over 30 years ago, continues to be the most reliable permanent ink on the market today. It’s comfy to use and the nibs are hardwearing, great for me as I can be a bit heavy handed at times.

uk Anyway Pullingers have asked me to review my favourite fineliner pens for drawing, so here we go.Thin or light-colored pens are best for initial sketches while darker or thicker pens are good for finishing touches.

Generally speaking, thinner paper is more likely to show through and absorbent paper is more likely to bleed through. I found it worked very well when used for continuous lines rather than quick sketch marks, so would be more suited to graphic styles. Again, I have I’ve drawn a series of different marks with the fineliners and gone over them with the ink.

Stabilo Sensor Fineliner Marker Pens avoid this with a cushioned tip that retreats into the pen body in response to pressure.

When it comes to finding the best fineliner, most artists, illustrators and graphic designers will have their favourites and there are many different reasons for their choices; it’s the blackest pen, it has the most controlled line, the feel of the nib, the resistance to alcohol-based markers, etc. The pen has a pretty basic design, reminiscent of a school pen, with its hexagonal shape and I’m pretty sure I did use these in school back in the day. The sturdy tips of these pens, protected with a hard plastic shield, provide slight line variation with pressure, unlike other options that can be easily bent out of shape. Another great feature of this pen is that it can be left uncapped for a long time without drying out. So that the smudging can be seen easily, I have chosen an amber coloured pen to use with the fineliners.There was some smudging with the Uni-Pin Fineliner which made the yellow look a little dirty but compared to the Stabilo Point 88 this was miniscule.
