Yes! Technical pens are great. My first book was all done using a Faber-Castell Pitt pen and my second book was Pigma Microns. I think Pitt pens are my favorite. I also have some Copic Multiliners which I was very excited about but ended up being a little too narrow for my taste.
- softfalcon 3y agoAh, yeah, I prefer the Faber-Castell Pitt's with the fine point to the Microns as well. The Microns do seem to be easier to find here in my end of Canada though, so there are tons in the house and my wife enjoys them as well. Have you tried the FC Pitt brush pens [0] at all? They seem like a lot of fun for diagrams and doodles.

- munificent 3y agoYeah, I have a couple. They're OK, but brush pens are hard for a lefty because the strokes that should be pulled and align with the direction of the brush don't always work that way when writing left handed. Probably fun for drawing though.
