  • Here is my second small brush pen review. After the first small brush pen comparison, I got a few more small pens to try. This is a mini pen haul of my most recent purchase from Jet Pens and some from Amazon. I've linked to Amazon below. Small brush pens are a great way to start for hand lettering beginners! But there are so many different kinds, so I hope this video helps you decide which one you should try! #brushpenreview #handlettering
    This video got really long so I've also left the time stamp here and in the pinned comment below so you can click to the pen you want to see.

    Hi Sarah. Great video. I remember you saying that buying pens would become kinda like an addiction😅... you were correct. I'm still a struggling beginner at lettering but... I've become quite good at shopping for and buying new pens. I wish the writing part was as easy as the buying was.. but alas.. FYI The Fudegokochi Kuretake pens are currently unavailable. I did try the link to the Marvy LePenFlex using your link and the first thing I saw when I got to they'd website was " This page is unavailable". That's OK... that's a message to me from the Universe to stop buying and do more practicing!😊

    I am entirely self-taught-I struggled to follow workbooks so practiced daily until I improved. Recently, I became frustrated when my lettering suffered drastically with the Sakura Pigma Brush. I found myself thinking I simply wasn’t yet “good” enough to handle it properly. So learning that you disliked it and found it so difficult made me feel much better! Your taste in pens isn’t simply educational but inspirational :)

    First, love the vid. Second; I got some large brush pens a few months ago but it was a cheap knockoff of tombow, it frayed in about 3 weeks time so I started watching videos to see what type of lens I should use and how to letter, I’m getting better but not at all good. I narrowed it down to finding smaller nibs and practice from that. I’m about to buy the tombow fude. I’m good at downstrokes but my hand cannot take upstrokes, they start getting shaky and after the finishing piece, I can see almost NO difference in upstrokes. Would you say I should get soft or hard nibs to practice? Also, what practising methods do you recommend?

    • @EnsignInsights
      @EnsignInsights  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      You may want to try both soft and hard! They are different and everyone has a different preference depending on what works with your style. As for practice, watch videos and learn as much as you can. You can also get some worksheets to practice with. 👍

If it fits snugly, it might increase the length to improve comfort.

    Thanks for the great video. You make it really clear what you are trying to achieve and do it brilliantly.
    One of the first brush pen sets I bought was the Sakura Pigma brushes. They nearly convinced me to give up but I did keep going and if you can letter with them, you can write beautifully with almost anything. But I do agree with you - use the Pentel Touch, or the Tombow Fudenosuke instead. Your life will be much easier, and just as beautiful.
    As a side topic, do you find that some pen tips break down faster? My initial set of Tombow Fudenosuke colours (bought a few months ago) are pretty much destroyed now, though the Touch pens are still fine. Likewise Tombow Dual Brush pens wear fast. Perhaps I'm too heavy handed?

    • @EnsignInsights
      @EnsignInsights  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      dean smith I’ve found that same thing with Pentel and Tombow! It’s ok to be heavy handed, as long as we have good pens that can hold up! Thanks for sharing!
