Pitt Artist Pen® Brush - Gift Box of 48

What can I say its Faber-Castell quality (excellent) and a huge box of colors! It was the perfect gift for my artist son.

I am thrilled with these. As a professional artist, it is important to me that the colour of the pen ink matches the indicator on the tip, and these are very, very close to the colour. The ink is smooth and really stands out against the paper, making the artwork look much more professional and brilliant when held in contrast to other markers. The tips are well made and durable and the pens seem to have a lot of ink. They work well on a variety of different paper and don't bleed much, so it makes it easy to direct the ink. They blend well and have a minimal scent, so they don't make you dizzy if you are leaning close to them. I am so glad that I bought these, as they have become one of my favourite supplies. I would definitely recommend these to other artists. There is a wide array of colours here, and many shades that you can't find in a standard marker set. I am particularly impressed with the yellows in this set.

After dipping my toe in the water by trying my daughter’s 48 piece set, I had to buy this set of 60 for myself, as an early, errr, Halloween present, yeah. Just finished the swatches and here are the colors: Ivory (103), Light Yellow Glaze (104), Cadmium Yellow (107), Dark Cadmium yellow (108), Pale Pink (114), Apricot (116), Beige Red (132), Dark Chrome Yellow (109), Orange Glaze (113), Scarlet Red (118), Pale Geranium Lake (121), Coral (131), Deep Red (223), Deep Scarlet Red (219), Pink Carmine (127), Pink Madder Lake (129), Middle Purple Pink (125), Magenta (133), Lilac (239), Crimson (134), Purple Violet (136), Light Indigo (220), Sky Blue (146), Phthalo Blue (110), Ultramarine (120), Dark Indigo (157), Indanthrene Blue (247), Cobalt Blue (143), Ice Blue (148), Light Cobalt Turquoise (154), Cobalt Turquoise (153), Cobalt Green (156), Phthalo Green (161), Light Phthalo Green (161), Permanent Olive Green (167), Dark Phthalo Green (264), Leaf Green (112), Light Green (171), May Green (170), Earth Green (172), Chromium Green Opaque (174), Green Gold (268), Raw Umber (180), Terra-cotta (186), Sanguine (188), Cinnamon (189), India Red (192), Caput Mortuum (169), Dark Sepia (175), Nougat (178), Walnut Brown (177), Warm Grey (270), Warm Grey III (272), Warm Grey IV (273), Warm Grey V (274), Cold Grey I (230), Cold Grey III (232), Cold Grey IV (233), Cold Grey VI (235), Black (199). My daughter got these mostly for fancy lettering, but I bought them for sketching and coloring mixed media art. They are so smooth and flowy, the art practically creates itself (ok, I exaggerate slightly). Great pens and I’m happy to hear they’re pretty long lasting! Lightfast and permanent India ink with beautiful brush strokes. Would have liked more skin tones though. *

I have read about nearly every artist set of pens, watercolor brush sets, colored pencils of all types and purchased many brands. With the arrival of these India ink brush tipped pens today, I am finally satisfied that I have found the pinnacle of coloring sets! The brush fiber tip is perfect for me as it is short, comes to a pin point, and with a light hand I am able to color in the smallest of places in adult coloring books. The tip is firm, which I prefer, yet with some flexibility. Ink flow is perfect - not too much but still covers the page nicely. The body of the pen is good for my hand, like a fat coloring pencil, although shorter, so my hand doesn't cramp when coloring (for hours!). Each pen holds a lot of ink! I can't imagine running out anytime within the next several years. I am also thrilled that this box has 9 different shades of green - the one color I need the most variety with the Johanna Basford series of coloring books. I have read that the pens do not bleed through decent paper. They have not with the postcard stock on which I am using them. The storage box is well made with the ability to tier up each level of the pen holders. Yes, these pens are pricey but with all I have spent trying to find something that is perfect for me I could easily have purchased this pen set at least twice more. I think the secret when looking on Amazon is to input "Artist set" into the search box. I am through with searching any more as I have reached nirvana with this purchase.

I had wanted to upgrade my pen set so I purchased a 60 brush pen set that was being sold at a good price. Colors blend well and range from light pastels to the deepest reds, blues, brown and black. Their white is a bit pale and transparent so I have had to switch to a guache acrylic for those moments in composing an image. The pens are about 4 dollars a unit so 150 dollars for 60 is a decent price. I would caution buyers to take the time to immediately open and check each pen for flow of color as there is a risk of dry pens being among the set. The first time I got 12 dry pens! I sent the set back and got an immediate replacement (thank you Amazon) which was fully functional and have used them since. I would jot the numbers of the pens as they start to dry and look to replace them online from art supply dealers that may have a better price. This way you always have your set of pens refreshed.

For a long time I debated about this purchase - it is pricey - however, I am pleased with these brush pens overall. Colors are rich, ink flows freely, and the entire box takes up little space on the desk which also makes it good for travel. My sole criticism concerns the felt tips, which seem to get soft and dull after a while. I imagine new tips can be bought and I'll have to investigate that. Since then I have added more colors to this collection for Jet Pens, where you can buy individual colors not included in this collection for around $3.00.

Uso sobre superfícies em que não deseje usar tinta, água ou que necessite de linhas finas.

Die Rezession bezieht sich auf die Stifte und auf den Kundenservice von Amazon. Die Stifte: Ich habe mir zu Beginn eine kleine Packung aus 8 Stiften (eine Letteringbox) geholt, um erst mal zu testen. (neben Ecoline, Tombow und Kuretake) Die Stifte sind recht eigen und man könnte sagen, dass sie teurere Filzstifze sind. Dem stimme ich nur teilweise zu. Warum ich mich letztendlich für den Kauf entscheide habe, liegt an der Brillanz der Farben, das sie permanent sind und das ich später einzelne Stifte nachkaufen kann. Dadurch das sie Tuschestifte sind, bleiben die Pigment auf der Oberfläche liegen und leuchten regelrecht. Durch die Permanenz vermischen sich untergelegte Farbschichten nicht mit neu aufgetragenen. Man kann super Glazen. Das Papier bei dem Bildern ist naturbelassen, also nicht weiß. Interessiert diese Stifte gar nicht. Ich werde es bestimmt noch auf grauem und braunem Karton probieren. Notfalls kann man mit Weiß grundieren (nicht in der Box enthalten) Zur Langlebigkeit der Spitzen und Lichtbeständigkeit der Farben kann ich noch nicht sagen, wird sich mit der Zeit zeigen. Ich nutze sie fürs Letterin (auch auf sehr dünnem 50g Papier in meiner Bibel) und zum colorieren. Wenn ich nun auch noch die Trocknungszeiten der einzelnen Schichten einhalte, würde ich nicht mal das Papier kaputt rubbeln. Aber ich bin ein ungeduldiger Mensch 😶 Nun zum Amazon Kundenservice: Das Produkt war Verkauf und Versand durch Amazon Das man bei Amazon mal reklamierte Ware als Neuware versickt bekommt ist bekannt. Find ich nicht toll ABER die Schnelligkeit des Kundensercive ist phänomenal. Packet bekommen, Stifte waren gebraucht... Angetufen, geklärt. Da ich recht ab vom Schuss wohne und zur nächsten Post eine Stunde zu Fuß brauche, bekomme ich einen DHL Abholauftrag. Amazon informiert mich, die Ersatzlieferung ging sofort nach dem Telefonat raus. Am nächsten Tag holt der Bote die alten ab und übergibt mir gleich die Neuen. Einfach super muss ich sagen. Ich musste keinen Tag auf die Stifte verzichten. Macht euch eure eigenes Bild, fangt aber mit einer kleineren Letteringpackung an, wenn ihr euch nicht sicher seit. 140€ müssen nicht in der Tonne landen, denn geöffnet wird diese Stifte keiner mehr nehmen!

Fue para un regalo y encantada. Esta muy bien

Le coffret est bien, il offre 60 couleurs avec de beaux dégradés à tester avant d'appliquer. Toutefois, à la première ouverture, j'ai tout mis par terre, le lien qui permet de développer les tiroirs n'a pas de frein. Après avoir soulever les trois premiers avec le lien, il faut s'arrêter de tirer dessus et le bloquer sur le petit bouton. Le premier tiroir vu de face ne se soulève pas. Riche de ces feutres à l'encre de Chine, la qualité est là, faber-castell montre son savoir faire, c'est top.

The pens are wonderful to use and the look on paper is lovely. The box set is very professional and worth the price, would make a lovely gift.
