First saw doodle date using this and instantly wanted to buy this oen.I would rate this more than 5 stars if I could!!!I've gone through many pens and liners and never found one that I felt comfort with. For some reason the Sakura Micron pens never personally worked for me (they could work for you! Everyone has different likings and feelings on variables that they like about a pen.) and I was debating whether to get a copic liner or the Unipin ones and I decided to get a liner rather than various pen sizes since it would be cheaper and it can add line variations with pressure. I'm glad I made this decision. I've noticed that the ink can spread with printer paper so I'd suggest to get some kind of sketchbook that has a bit more weight and thickness. Nothing too fancy. For reference I'm using Strathmore Toned Tan paper.

Works great with my alcohol based markers, watercolors and col- erase pencils! Although I have to use it slowly, because if I do a quick line it's streaky.
