11 Pieces Comic Pen Nib Set, G-Pen Ink Nib Stainless Steel Drawing Comic Pen Nib Calligraphy Nibs with Wooden Comic Pen Nib Holder for Writing, Pa...

Got this for the following: Check on fountain pen ink colors in the dark bottles and to also use it as a dip pen for signatures on letters. Would recommend.

Good beginner pack. Several sizes and styles to see what works for you. And good enough quality to get some mileage out of these before deciding you want to upgrade to something fancy.

Keep in mind this is a 7$ item, so adjust your expectations accordingly The set has a pair of nibs for most popular sizes. These nibs cover all the drawing sizes a beginner might think about. The kit contains a crow quill nib (No. 3) that produces a range of line weights from lightest (can be below 0.2mm depending on your skill) to a pretty heavy one, I think its the most recommended nib for sketching. Other nibs provide medium to heavy lines with varying degrees of flex and can be used for penmanship or cross hatching works. The quality is okay, but you can totally put too much pressure and push tines out of alignment. They will also rust if you dont properly clean and dry them. The only minor issue is that attaching the smallest nib is awkward and its off center (because of construction), but it doesnt really affect usability. All in all you wont find anything better in this price range, so if youre just curious this is a set that will give you a good idea of what a dip pen is.

My high school art students use these to draw with. They work great as long as they are gentle with them. It isn't that they are not made well, but they are so tiny to be able to make such fine lines that one must just be gentle with them.

I got this pen just as a cheap secondary handle for illustration and saw it came with some manga style nibs. the first problem I noticed was the nib holder part of the pen didn't fit the 001 nib as they called it also known as a mapping or Maru pen, luckily already own a Tachikawa so for me this wasn't a problem but I can see someone buying this for the first time and ruining their nib holder trying to shove that maru pen in any way they can. now as for the nibs I compared them to each of their Tachikawa counterparts 001 Maru (mapping): I had no real problem with this nib it was pretty typical and there was nothing wrong with it compared to other Maru nibs 002 Nihon pen: This one was actually quite a bit different from its Tachikawa counterpart the nib was bent upwards which created a large almost marker like line far thicker than the other. this pen nib seems designed maybe more for writing than drawing as much I believe they're for writing Kanji / Chinese characters 003 School pen: This one i actually don't have any complaints with it was comparable to it's counterpart. 004 G-pen: The differences were a bit more subtle with the g-pen the bggest difference is really in the line quality when stroking this g-pen compared to the Tachikawa g-pen nib the line doesn't taper at the end as muc whic you may like but it just is a little different is all. 005 Spoon Pen: This one much like the Nihon pen is more of a bent pen that makes a far thicker line than other spoon pens I've used for drawing. so overall the 005 and 002 have the largest difference between their typical counterparts but I believe these nibs are designed more for writing than drawing exactly which isn't a bad thing, the nib holder doesn't hold one of the nibs that it comes with. other than that the handle is very light similar to holding a pencil.
