I don't do much watercolor media myself, but i do go into ink drawings. I got the idea from a picture on Google i found a while ago with one of these water brush's filled with black drawing ink. So i took a chance with this one, since reviews on this say that water flows nicely, so i just thought "why can't ink as well?". I bought this "Pentel Aquash Water Brush" and a "Zig Cartoonist Highly Opaque Pen Ink, Black" and tried it out myself. the conclusion was that it created one of the best black brush pen i could buy at this price. I've uploaded pictures of this creation.

I've been using water brushes with pan watercolors as my travel kit, and I keep returning to this brush, it's my favorite. It's the easiest to fill with water, it doesn't leak in my bag, and the bristles are surprisingly durable and they maintain their point nicely despite the fact that I really grind this thing into the hard, dry watercolor paint. In fact, water brushes do a better job of softening up the dry paints and they're cheaper to replace than sable brushes. The previous reviewer was unhappy about how much water is released when you squeeze the brush, but all water brushes are like that and you quickly learn to mix your paints a little more concentrated to compensate for that. You can make a perfect little travel kit with a mechanical pencil (never needs sharpening), a water brush, a set of pan watercolors or water-soluble pencils, and a small sketchbook or 4x6" watercolor postcards, and just keep it in your bag!

They work great for watercolor paint out doors. I use them on trip and have told all my students about them. I use them along with small watercolor paper on pads of 10 or more size 4 by 6, 6 by 6, 8 by 8 and even larger 9 by 12, 11 by 14 and 11 by 15. I also used several different watercolor palettes, some with basic colors in them and another with iridescent paint.

I purchased these to fill with alcohol to use as marker blenders for Copic and Blick alcohol markers. I didn't know if they would be able to withstand alcohol but I tested them with both 99% isopropyl and denatured (90+% ethanol) alcohol and no degradation so far. The brushes themselves have nice point and spring, so much that I may buy another set to use with watercolors and inks.

Edit: I purchased another set and I also filled one up with some Higgins Black Magic drawing ink, they work perfectly as a brush pen. Pentel actual sells these prefilled with ink, I found out

My headline says it all: this is by far the best water brush on the market. I have tried every single one. This one squeezes much, much more easily than the others, the tip lasts longer, is easiest to fill, and never leaks in my bag or on airplanes. Simply the best. Bravo Pentel!

I tried waterbrushes a few years back and quit, concluding they were just too much trouble and mainly because I couldn't get much water out of the barrel and onto the tip.

But recently I read a review about the main brands, and this one came out one of the best. So I decided to give it another try, and I'm glad I did.
I use this one for sketching outdoors. Wouldn't be without it.

It has an nicely flowing watersupply, which I like. I work with this by blotting on a paper towel when I want less water on the tip. To me, more water available when painting is better than less.

I bought the large and the small. But the large alone would be enough because the tip is synthetic and the best synthetic brush tip I have found on any brush. You can get very thin lines to quite wide lines easily. You do not have to reform the tip each time either for the next stroke.

I use the small, though, with small ink-wash studies, using water-soluble ink in an ink pen (also, a black Flair has wonderful ink for this). I draw with the ink pen, then wash over the lines with the waterbrush to create monochrome watercolor-like wash effects. Gives a neat and very quick little study that simulates how a watercolor of the scene would look.

For traveling light and compact, a waterbrush is ideal. This brush works well with small watercolor boxes and half-pans. My favorite sketchbook is Aquabee's Super Deluxe. Wonderful paper for pen and ink, watercolor (not too heavily wet), pencil, colored pencil, pastels. When I plan to color my sketches with watercolor, I use Noodler's bulletproof black or Lexington Gray waterproof ink.

Highly recommended.

I use this for stamped image coloring. I use stamping up ink mostly with these as well as using them to put down water for my water color pencils.

Pros
~~~~~~
Easy to fill
No leaking thus far
easy to squeeze out more water
colors seem to come off easily (inks)
Very nice to use with water color pencils
Works great on the Ranger Craft Sheet (which just wipes clean) I put down some water to mix my water color pencils
Easy to control amount of water coming out
Nice different tip sizes
Gets into detailed area pretty easily if you have a steady hand
Easy to store
Shipped quickly & packaged well.
Was cheaper then buying at the craft store.
Easy for kids to use as well.

Cons
~~~~~~
If you are using the ink lid to pick up color, it can be very hard to get enough color. The colors seem to be very light-so if you want bold color better off going with water colored pencils then these brushes. However, you can use these to put down the water first then use the water color pencils.

My View
~~~~~~~~
Overall I'm very happy with these brushes. They are fun to use & easy to control.
Really love the 3 tip options.
