      AmandaRachLee was not surprised at all with the result of the Sakura as that's my favorite too but I was surprised that stabilo point 88 performed better than the staedtler triplus since I use both and I like the staedtler much better because the tip lasts way longer and the feel of the pen and deepness of the black is of better quality in my opinion. Would love to see your take on watercolor brushes like the Tombow dual brush pens, Akashiya, Sakura, Kuretake ones :) not sure if the pentel brush pen falls in the same category? Anyway love this new segment and definitely looking forward to more showdowns 😊

  • @valchester2571
    @valchester2571 6 лет назад +35

    I did a lot of bullet journaling with the stabile 88 pens, and while they might seem like a great value at the beginning, after a few weeks (latest) of using them the tip really quickly becomes much thicker as it bends and you cannot write as small letters as you might want to and the colour also becomes much more grey tinted with that, so for a lasting writing experience with stabilos really I've had to replace them every month or so. just thought I'd let you know!

    • @e.w.4677
      @e.w.4677 2 года назад +3

      I use a lot of stabilo 88 pens for the same purpose and I don't share your experiences. I haven't had the problem with the tip getting bigger at all. Maybe it depends on the writing style and how much pressure you apply to the pen tip. I also haven't observed that the colour becomes grey tinted after time. (However, the pens are definitively able to absorb other colours, used that with ink in high school, that might be the cause) Edit: Also I use them mostly for writing, not drawing.

    • @pantalaimon1982
      @pantalaimon1982 6 лет назад +2

      Thanks. I doubt I would replace the nib or refill the copic (pure laziness), so I don't know if Copic is worth the investment. I do like my Pitt pen, but I have found that I've worn the nib on it a little, same with my pigma micron. I haven't had an issue with the Staedlers, which are my current favorite, but that might be because I am going back and forth between different pens in the 6 pack. When I used one of my Staedlers extensively, I really wore down the nib. I think I just write too hard!

    • @pantalaimon1982

    I can't believe you went through this fineliner roundup without trying the Uni Pin fineliner. One of the best pens I've owned. Fast drying, no feathering, almost zero bleed through on cheap semi-decent paper. Sakura microns also have this red dye when you put watercolor on it right away and the Uni Pin doesn't have said red dye.

    One thing I've noticed with the faber-castell fine liners is that the color fades really quickly. Especially if you've drawn with pencil and erase it after inking your piece. The sakura and copic fine liners which I also use a lot keep their color wayyyy better even if you erase the pencil lines underneath your inking.

    Dear Amanda, Thank you for the video! I thought I'd share my experience with one of them. I'm using staedler pigment liners and one thing I noticed is that they hold up extremely well against water xD. I had a sketchbook once that was completely soaked by the rain, and all the drawings I made with the staedler pigment were all preserved, while all the other drawings done by other fineliners became big blobs of blues and purples.
    I then had an idea for another stationary showdown. I would love to see tests on markers. I'm using promarkers myself, which are markers that try to recreate the effect of watercolor. But I know that they bleed through the page quite easily. However, they are excellent if you want to color an area without seeing the 'stripes' of the marker.

    • @PenRobot
      @PenRobot 4 года назад +3

      Also to note, if you're using copic markers, these multiliners do not pick up when using Copic Markers with them. This is very important as you can ruin your artwork this way if you don't know and are using Sakura pens which smear a lot when using high end markers, even when you let them dry.

  • @rachelnan7425

    Thank you!!! I love the Pigma microns, the only problem I noticed is that the 005 size which I really like- the point tends to break or fray or something. This has happened twice. I may bear down a little too hard, and I will say one time I was drawing along the edge of a really thin straight edge, which may have ruined it.

    Great info---but why no mention of the paper quality??? PQ has a great deal to do with how well writing implements behave. The best pen in the world will feather and bleed through low-grade paper and the same pen will have varying results with different paper weights and textures

    You are my biggest inspiration when it comes to my BUJO, I literally started Bullet Journaling because of you. I've always kept a regular lined journal and have about 30+ of them filled, but Bujo-ing (is that even a word? Lol probably not...) is so much fun, and I'm not artist but I love learning new techniques and doodles from your videos. I have decent cursive but I'm learning to hand letter by watching you, and I'm terrible at drawing so I draw inspo from you. Thanks for making awesome content, I get legit so excited each and everytime you post a new video

    the refills for the copic multiliner sp costs as much as a regular fineliner. They are just a waste of money, unless you really want the shiny barrel that much. and i say this as someone who has at least 1 fineliner of every brand on earth, copic sp was a huge disappointment. what's worse, the tip for the finer ones (0.005 and 0.1) are very scratchy and brittle, which isn't the case with the uni pin or zig mangaka.

      My copic fineliners I actually really enjoy. They work well for lining but they are rather annoying with erasing graphite after doing lineart. Though that isn't a issue with how I've begun to do my lineart. However, I see your opinion and agree I wouldn't buy them again due to their price and how I can get the same product for cheaper.

      Perhaps you bought one of the erasable ones by mistake. There are black, blue, red, and green erasable pens; all of which fade over the course of 1-2 semesters if exposed to UV light. They have one additional perk though, as the bleed less.
