Kuretake ZIG Memory System Dual Brush Tip Marker, Brushables, No.10, Pure Black (MS-7700-010)

-- FIRST IMPRESSIONS --Why I Switched from Tombow:I just got this brush pen and I absolutely love it. I bought this because I wanted to see if I would like the Brushbables more than the Tombow Dual Brush Pens, which are pretty much the go-to for brush lettering. I didn't like the Tombows because I felt like the tips frayed easily and also because they were pretty hard to control.Pros:- The tip feels resilient. It's soft enough to get your thick lines in but it's resilient so your thin lines will be easier to make. The ink flows nicely and it's rich. It feels like it will be less likely to fray (I will update this as I use it more).- The ink is rich and flows nicely.- There are two BRUSH colors (black and grey). I think this is a step up from the Tombow dual brush pens because they didn't actually have two BRUSHES. Instead, there was one color with a brush end and a marker end. With this, I get two colors, potentially at the cost of ink cartridge space (meaning it will likely run out of ink faster than the Tombows).Cons:- Potentially runs out of ink faster than other brush pens with just one color and one brush tipRating: 5 stars for its quality. Bit pricier than I wanted but seems better than my other alternative (Tombow dual brush pens).*These are my first impressions. I will update this as I run into other things to say about this pen.*

Since I am new to lettering, this pen is large and a bit tricky to handle, but i do like it and will use it once my confidence is more.

Teres two colors on the marker but both of them are pretty similar, the grey is a really dark grey so if u are searching for a lighter grey color this won't work. But overall the marker its pretty easy to write and good quality.

The tip is more like a paint brush and creates very sloppy writing. My second try to find a good pen for writing on photos and both failed.

I am new to brush lettering. I bought this along with a set of colored ones to practice with. This is considered a large brush pen. Works great.

I just received this guy in the mail, and so far I am extremely satisfied. I wasn't expecting nor wanting the grey side, but I'm glad so I can make myself learn how to use it. The black brush provides a rich, dark inky black and has fair line size variation. When I first used the brush, he thick black made me shiver ooo it was great

Very nice brush pen. Exactly what I've come to expect from a Japanese writing instrument. I wish the other end was a smaller brush version of the same color black instead of the gray, but the gray is useful too.

The gray side is alright, but the black is nice- it has a more darker pigmented black compared to the Tombow dual ended brush/ marker. However, the brush wears out after using it for a while.

Love these pens. Write nicely and like how one side is around 50% the colour of the other side so you get two colours/shades in one pen

Bought for my daughter, she loves it. Fit for purpose.

Great pen for lettering, adding shadow to letters and for sketching and doodling

runs out very fast, but has a good tip

Good
