This soft brush nib will let you have both wide and fine lines to be drawn as you wish. It is a water-based marker available in 19 different colors. You are even able to create a gradient effect. The special nobs on the barrel allows you to clip them together to keep them connected.

Faber-Castell selected some fancy names for their new gold and silver metallic color markers. These markers apply on light, dark or colourful paper or even smooth surfaces, such as plastic, foil, porcelain, glass and metal, with a premium metallic effect. After drying, Metallics are resistant to both smudging and water splashes. The special water-based metallic ink is odourless and doesn‘t seep through paper. Furthermore, no pumping or shaking is required, the ink flows evenly through the 1.5 mm fibre tip. Available in 6 shiny, metallic colors.

Ink drawings have a very long artistic tradition. This has always been an interesting medium for artists and graphic artists which can be combined with many other dra- wing techniques. Faber-Castell has merged all the advantages of artist‘s inks with the benefits of a modern, easy-to-use pen – the Pitt Artist Pen. This pen contains pigmented India ink which is very lightfast, waterproof and permanent being the ideal tool for sketches, drawings, layouts, fashion design and illustration. The long, metal enchased nib provides a clear line width of 0.3 mm and does not bleed th- rough paper. Besides the fineliner S in black and other 10 colors there are also 60 Pitt Artist Pens with a brush tip available.

This graphite pencil with a unique blue barrel and golden stripes is a versatile tool for drawing and sketching. The hexagonal shape and the break-resistant lead with the typical Faber-Castell SV bonding enables a very good writing performance.
