I am an avid pen and pencil artist. I have tried several brands of pens, these being a "must have" for me. They last quite awhile, the point stays firm, and the ink does not "bleed". The smallest is .005, largest .08. My favorites are the .005 and .01, but I own all sizes and colors. I HIGHLY recommend this set to start with, but beware - once you try these, you will be hooked!

These were the very first inking pens I ever got, and I was shocked by how well they worked.
First off, they come in a variety of sizes, from the fairly thick .05 to the deliciously thin .005. It offers a nice range of line widths for artwork and a must-have for comic art. (And be sure to get the Brush Pen, the pen that acts like a mini-paintbrush!)
The peeve I have about Sakura Micron is that the tip of the .005 is a bit fragile and liable to bend, but considering how tiny it is, you sort of expect that.
Overall, a good pen whose sizes and alternate colors really make them stand out, but you have to be careful with the points, especially .005.

Many of the other reviewers have mentioned that these pens are perfect for sketching; however, I have found that they are the best writing instruments for taking notes in books. Especially books with thin pages. My pen of choice has a tip of .005.
No matter the delicacy of the page, the ink never bleeds through.
Also, I tend to have messy handwriting but the Micron Pen forces precision. If you struggle with poor handwriting this pen might be what you need to improve.
The multiplicity of colors in this set allows you to create a labeling system for notes inside the text.
These pens are not intended for rapid note taking as they are not especially durable. Also the ink does not last very long before running out.

Great Utensil for Outlining!
If you draw frequently like me, you probably either haven't found the right utensil to use for outlining or have a hard time deciding which is better to use. Read more

Great drawing pen set, but the postage is an issue
Very happy with the product itself, however when I tried to order again, the postage to Australia was suddenly over $350! Previously the post had cost $1.98. Read more

The Best
I only use Microns when I draw. They are the best pens. I tried others and always go back to Micron for the excellent quality.

Micron Pens
I love these pens and am able to get the details I want with the control I need. They work with my watercolors very well. I also love them when I am doing tangle designs.
