Tombow "Fudenosuke Soft Brush Pen - Black

The Tombow "Fudenosuke" Soft Brush Pen is fantastic for both beginners and experienced calligraphers. The flexible brush tip allows for smooth, controlled strokes, making it great for creating beautiful lettering and detailed artwork. The black ink is rich and vibrant, and it doesn't smudge easily. I love how easy it is to use, and the pen fits comfortably in my hand. A must-have tool for anyone into calligraphy or brush lettering. Highly recommend!

I absolutely love this pen. The body is lightweight and has a nice shine to it, and the cap fits on the end of it so you don't lose it. The ink is a very nice black and can cover over pretty much any media, if you do the outline afterwards like I do. It does eat away at the paper if you put too much ink in one place though so you have to be extra careful but that's not really a big deal since you're only meant to draw single lines with it. It also doesn't bleed when used with alcohol based markers which is a big plus, all fineliner pens I've used so far bled like crazy as soon as I applied colour. The brush nib is stiff, but not too stiff, so you can get a very fine line using the very tip of the brush, and you can get to lines as thick as the length of the brush.Overall, very satisfied. Definitely buying again when this one runs out. Very good price considering the high quality of the product. Highly recommended.

I bought these TomBow pens from a recommendation. I've used fine liners for years and always referred back to them. These pens however are great, the ability to vary the line weights on my art/sketches without the need for going back over has essentially cut my work time down. The ink doesnt smudge all that much when applying alcohol markers but care should be taken. I wouldnt say the ink is waterproof but definitely resistant providing the ink is completely dry.Only real issue I have is the tips tend to distort and deform before the pen has run out, but considering the price difference compared to something like the Pentel Brush or similar felt tipped brush pens these definitely tick 95% of the boxes.My last pen managed 3 pretty detailed11x17" Transformers pieces before the ink flow started to deteriorate.I'd recommend these pens quite happily.

Love this pen! It says “soft” brush pen, but the nib is quite firm (though flexible), allowing you to make quite thin brush strokes without having to switch to a smaller nib. It’s held it’s shape over a long time of use, no fraying or stray hairs.For a comparison, the Faber-Castell Pitt artist pen, B nib, is much softer and much more prone to fraying. It also can’t create as thin lines as this pen nib.The ink is waterproof.

Perfect for sketching, it feels really good in the hand and i like the resultsMuch easier than a pen /ink combo (they still have a place in my kit)Very pleased

Bought this for sketching in pen and it’s great. The result is lovely. Writing with it is very smooth. Tempted to use this just for regular note taking.I know the pen is aimed at calligraphy users which I can’t comment on but it’s great value for money.

I have been testing brush pens for about a year and I always come back to this particular pen - it is soft and totally easy to use, gliding across the page like silk! Moreover, it is very durable, and the ink seems last for a long time. I have had mine for a year, and with moderate use the pen is still working as if it were new. I will definitely be purchasing more for my artworks and calligraphy practice, and would recommend this to both beginners and advanced artists/writers etc alike - suitable for everyone.

I just started a Calligraphy class and needed a brush pen but didn't want to go all out on price, not at the beginning. However still wanted something that could do the job well.This brush pen did just that. It was soft but firm enough at points when needed and the ink is consistent on each strick.It's good value.
