Tips on how to use fine tip pens:

  • Choose the right paper: fine tip pens work well on heavyweight paper
  • Practice control: fine tip pens require a steady hand for precise lines. You can practice on how you control the pressure that you use to achieve consistent lines
  • Sketch lightly: try to sketch with a pencil first before this will allow you to make corrections before going over your lines with the fine tip pen
  • Use gentle pressure: fine tip pens are delicate. Use gentle pressure to avoid damaging your pen and to achieve consistent lines
  • Work in layers: start with lighter lines and gradually add darker lines or detail, this helps create depth in your artwork
  • Allow ink to dry: give your ink time to dry before erasing pencil lines or adding more layers of ink to prevent smudging
  • Clean your pens regularly: clean the tips of your pen regularly by scribbling on a piece of paper, this helps to remove any buildup of ink
  • Store properly: store your fine tip pens horizontally with the cap on to prevent the ink from drying out

Tips on how to use broad pens:

  • Hold the pen correctly: hold the pen at a comfortable angle. It might take some time to get used to the broad pen. You can practice on how to hold the pen that best suits you
  • Practice different strokes: before diving into letter writing, you should practice your brush strokes such as upstrokes and downstrokes. We have a free practice sheet available below
  • Control pressure: broad pens allow you to create thick or thin lines by the amount of pressure that you apply. Light pressure will create thin lines while a heavy pressure will create thick lines
  • Start slowly: take your time and write slowly. Taking time to colour in and let your ink dry between each layer of colouring to prevent smudging
  • Use guidelines: you can use grid paper or dotted journals to help you maintain letter height and spacing when writing letters
  • Be patient and persistent: practice makes perfect! Writing with a broad pen takes time and practice

Faber-Castell Double ended Felt Tip Pens

I love the range of colours that comes in the pack & I find the pens very versatile for colouring in with the broader side of the pen & the finer side for writing.
