Tombow Mono Drawing Pen

What's it designed for?

The Tombow Mono Drawing Pen is a fineliner pen specifically designed for illustration purposes. It is often used by artists with a passion for the comic/manga industry, but is also used by fine artists, engineers, designers, portrait artists and more.

Key Features

The pens are produced from hard-wearing plastic and have a metal-cased fineliner tip, which provides you with a very precise drawing experience. The water-based pigment ink is odourless. See the selected pen or set for its ink colour and tip size. We recommend using the pens on smooth cartridge papers.

Tips and tricks

When sketching with fineliner pens, it's best to work with thinner pens before adding bold details with thicker pens. This allows you to build a foundation sketch, where you can enhance specific areas with thicker pens when you're ready.

There is also a broad range of techniques you can use, such as line-art, pointillism, crosshatch, comic-style, scribbling and even a technique where you try not to take the pen off the page! It's always a great idea to experiment on some scrap paper to see which technique will suit your project the most.
