Despite not having the feel of a good sable brush, these brush pens are simple to use and make for a less cluttered working environment, as I don't need two pots of water. They deliver just the right amount of water when mixing and they keep a fine point when doing detailed work. What I really like is that using a tissue I can wipe the brush over it and ensure a good clean brush ready for the next colour. The reservoir is good enough for my work on A4 paper, and more water can be simply added when needed. For washes over a large area, these brushes are just not up to it, as you can't apply large sweeps of colour, you are limited by their size. Overall an impressive set to add to an artists box of tricks.

i love the brush i got with my japanese watercolour box! it means i can dispense with the easy knocked over glass of water when i'm painting out and about i found the pentel brush i bought from you didnt flow properly making watercolour washes impossible.. what is worse i gave one to a young friend who had just started painting thinking it would be like my old japanese one which he tried and used happily i was really embarassed when i realised what poor quality thecheaper pentel brushes are.

Well worth the money. I had my previous brushes for about five years, so they are long lasting for a small price. The best use for them are taking them out with a small box of paints and doing quick sketches/ paintings of anything that takes your attention.

I found that these brushes were surprisingly easy to use after initial testing how they were to function. Easy to mix, apply paint and subsequent cleaning. Should last for a long time while they retain their shape...

Easy to fill with water. Picks up paint very well. Brush tips retain their shape after washing, and give smooth application to paper.
