Faber-Castell Creative Studio Metallics Marker, Multicoloured, Cardboard Wallet Of 6, For Art, Craft, Drawing, Sketching, Home, School, University, Colouring

~ ‘Store Horizontally’ is on each round-barrelled metallic marker pen~ ‘1.5 mm fibre tip’~ ‘Water-based, metallic ink’ (no noticeable odour to my sensitive nose)Just as I was about to buy this on one of my ‘try it & see’ missions, the box of 6 popped up at the checkout and I simply could not resist. Without any more superfluous wrappings, they work straight out of the box, i.e. no shaking or pressing down on the tips. The ink flows without interruption, in my experience.ooOooThe 6 good quality markers came simply presented in a cardboard box, with an open panel showing the lid colours:~ wanderlust~ berry nice~ ice ice blue~ nothing else metals~ copper cabana~ heart of goldThe only one I am not so keen on is the last one, as it is quite a dull ‘gold’. The rest I am smitten with, so much so that they are hidden in a drawer as many others that pass through here have expressed a liking!Each relatively chunky, round-barrelled pen is around 13.5 cm in length with the cap in situ. Handily fitting over the opposite end when in use, said cap, which pulls off, has a functional shirt clip that stops the pen from rolling too far. It is worth listening for the audible click when the cap is fully returned at the end of play.Time will tell how long the ink lasts, but there (currently) is that opportunity to buy singly for when a favourite does run out.

Bought as a present for a young lad who is into artwork, he's very happy with them.

They work well - I've been using them to sign autographs, the ink doesn't smudge and dries quickly. They are a little more pricey than in the shops maybe, but fast delivery is the bonus here. Not sure on longevity but they have been used a lot and are still working great.

These might be pricier than other pens you see but they are so worth it! The pigmentation is amazing and the colours pop soooo well on black paper! So happy with these!

Nice little metallic pens, they dry really quickly and have such a beautiful pigment. Bargain prices too

I purchased these pens thinking (wrongly) that they were a step up from my usual staedler or stabilo. I was completly wrong. Not only are they not as free flowing to draw or write with like the afore-mentioned, but as other negative reviews have stated some arrived either partially or completely dry. I paid just over £20 for 12 pens. My opinion, dont waste your money. These were returned.

Have used these pens a few times during card making. They are a brand I trust and have used others in the range many times. My only gripe is that the gold coloured pen could be a bit more vibrant, it seems to be hard to find a gold pigment ink that doesn't look like old gold. That said, these are quality pens I shall use often and would purchase again

Excellent writing performance
