Rotring Sketching Art Pen EF - extra fine Reviews
3 of 3 people found the following review helpful: Do some hunting before you purchase this one (and where you should purchase it), By Peabody "macmurphy" (Nowhere, USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Rotring Sketching Art Pen EF - extra fine (Kitchen) Im not sure if my pen is defective or not, but I havent got the catridges to puncture/load properly-- that could be just me though. My main criticism is that this pen is much much cheaper on art websites-- by about $10. Rotring seems to be a brand gradually discontinuing more and more of its products... I'm not sure if this pen is the best investment to be spending top dollar on, as the true rotring favorite- the rapidograph-- has had its accessories discontinued and are increasingly hard to find, this one may also follow suite. Check other sites before purchasing here. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: A beloved tool when modified, This review is from: Rotring Sketching Art Pen EF - extra fine (Kitchen) It is not possible to store the cap to the pen on the end of the pen which is irritating. However I cut the end off with my bandsaw and glued a plastic colored thumbtack cap on the end for cosmetic purposes. (They color metal thumbtacks by affixing lightweight colored caps onto them. They are easy to remove.) Now the cap to the pen fits on great. Plus the pen is lighter which is always a bonus for me. At first I found this pen very stiff and its ink flow very light. However the distribution of ink is so steady it is possible to use it as fast as you can use a pencil and build up tone the way one might want to with an ink pen (Van Gogh etc.) I use the converter and my own purchased walnut ink rather than cartridges. It has loosened up a bit and I must say at this point I am happy with it. No hint of leakage to date. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: Workhorse Pen, By Lynnie B (Petaluma, CA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Rotring Sketching Art Pen EF - extra fine (Kitchen) I've had this pen for about 5 years now. I use it daily, and have had absolutely no difficulties with it. My only complaint is that the top can't be attached anywhere on the pen body, so it must be put 'somewhere'. Unfortunately, that 'somewhere ends up being lost under other items on my desk! Excellent pen, and well worth the rather steep purchase price. The less expensive pens I've purchased in the past have all worn out or have become deformed - not this one! Shop around, and you can usually find a pretty good price. |
