The Capabilities of a Sakura Pigma Micron Pen

Small tips are kind of our thing, at least when it comes to pens, and there is one pen that always comes to mind whenever we hear the words "small" and "tip": the Sakura Pigma Micron Pen. Its smallest size is 005, with a line width of .20 millimeters. That's the size of .02 centimeters, and the size of .008 inches! 

Recently, we had a student (whose name will be kept anonymous) who got sent a set of these pens send us photos of how she used them. She received a Sakura Pigma Micron 03, 02, and 005, which all ended up being very useful for her, as she was taking summer school. 

Here is the message she sent along with her photos: 

"Hello, summer school finished last Friday, and these pens ended up being so useful!!

My teacher was really nice, and she let all of us use one notecard on each test we took. Since the subject I took was chemistry, I basically had to write entire units onto these notecards, and with a 005 pen, it was literally possible"

In total, the student sent 7 very cool photos of the notecards she filled up using the pens. 

Other than filling up notecards, Micron pens can be used to...

• Outline sketches with waterproof ink before using watercolor,
• Draw and illustrate highly detailed drawings with various tip sizes,
• Ink comics and manga with a consistent ink flow and clean lines,
• Annotate,
• Doodle,
• and basically anything else that has to do with marking up paper.

Micron pens are one of the most versatile pens for any artist or student to have due to their archival-quality ink, precise needle tips, and wide range of sizes.
