Tombow56191 Advanced Lettering Set. Includes Need to Enhance Your Hand Lettering

The Tombow 56190 Beginner Lettering Set is an absolute essential tools for anyone that loves hand lettering! Especially for beginners! I go this on sale for a steal and cold believe how awesome it is. Each set comes complete with 2 Dual Brush pens, Fudenosuke Calligraphy Pen,MONO Twin Permanent Marker &MONO Drawing Pencil & Eraser.If Tombows dual brush pens weren't already the best and a hand lettering ESSENTIAL...let me enlighten you on the Fudenosuke Calligraphy Pen!!!The Fudenosuke Calligraphy Pen is ABSOLUTELY HANDS DOWN AMAZING. It creates beautiful hand lettering!The dual brush pens are also an essential in my hand lettering arsenal! They are super quality! I have been using my same set for over a year and it's still fresh and going strong!These also hold up very well for the " BEGINNER HAND LETTERER TIP ABUSE " lol. It's expected! But these will hold up well! I highly recommend this set and all Tombows products.

I love the tombow Fudenosuke pen with the firm but flexible brush tip. I was looking for a good set to recommend to students of a Hand Lettering club. This is the one I settled on.The value is great and it has everything you need. Also, there are a lot free practice sheets on Tombow's website if you search them out, they aren't hard to find.My photo is one of their practice sheets for the dual tip pen. It is a larger brush pen and you can do a lot with it and add details with the fine tip on the other side.The sketch pencil and eraser are nice too, and a good reminder that sketching is usually the first step to a nice hand lettered design!Buy this set. Get started and have fun!

This is of excellent quality and I'm even impressed with their packaging. I love when companies have a way of keeping all the tools together. Very clever and totally answered my wishes with the blister pack doesn't need to be cut i n to to access the awesome variety of pens inside. I tested each one and am overjoyed to have these calligraphy pens. Quality is superb. I will emphasize the ease of use, the smear resistance and the awesome case/packaging they arrive in. Thank you Tombow, well done!!!!!

I have only recently received this so I cannot attest for the longevity of the tools. I am a beginner as well, so I do not know that much on different hand lettering tools. I suppose these tools are good, they write well and the kit comes with many tools for beginning calligraphy. The tip sheet explains what they are for. There aren't any real instructions on how to hand letter/write calligraphy on the tip sheet; merely simple ideas, such as downstrokes are thick and upstrokes are thin. I definitely recommend getting a book that goes more in-depth about calligraphy/hand lettering. There are also free hand-lettering worksheets on the Tombow website that you can download and print, I just wish that they would have come with the set. This is definitely a kit to "enhance your hand lettering" not to learn hand-lettering/calligraphy. This set is pretty good and would be an awesome gift!

This kit is great for beginners! It has everything you need to get started! Well, everything except paper and a ruler!

I decided to buy this set after I made the decision to learn calligraphy as one of my New Years resolutions. I was a little hesitant at first after reading the reviews because a few people said the brush pen started fraying a bit after a few uses. I am VERY particular about writing utensils to the point that I bring my own pens to use at work. I literally can’t use anything other than the Paper Mate Flair pens or Sharpies just because my handwriting is basically ineligible otherwise and I put so much pressure on the page when writing that I often leave indentions or poke holes through paper when using a ballpoint pen or pencil. With that being said, this pen set is everything I hoped for. The brush pen is great and takes some getting used to when you are used to putting a lot of pressure on a page while writing like I do. The grey brush pen adds a great little flair to anything you write with any of the pens and I use it quite often. I liked the dual permanent marker pen is fine, but I reach for it the least amount of the set. The holy grail and unsung hero of this set is the fudenosuke pen. It is truly everything I’ve ever wanted in a pen, which makes me sound like a crazy person, but it writes like a dream and makes my handwriting look damn good. I love it so much that I ordered a pack of two on their own. So if you’re feeling skeptical about buying this set, don’t be. You will be happy that you did - promise!

This is well put together, the glitter is great quality and the tools are well made. I advise you not to buy this for young ages. IT MAKES A MESS! My husband gave it to our ten year old and said "Go for it!" I came home to what looked like a massive glitter explosion. It wasn't just on the bathroom counter...it was on the mirror, the walls, the floor, the rug, her face! Her clothes were ruined from the nail polish remover she was TRYING to use to take off the glitter that she couldn't get to work. She was WAY too young for this. This is perfect for older children...adults.....just not young children! Lol This is Dad's fault, not the products. I love the product but good grief...I should have taken pictures! Lol.. What a mess it was!! :)

Takes getting used to. Dries out quickly. Okay quality considering the price. Not super long-lasting. Color shows up well after a few passes. Good intro to calligraphy.
