How Do Tombow Dual Brush Pens Work?
Each pen has two ends. The brush end is flexible, so light pressure gives thin lines and firm pressure gives thick strokes. The fine end is firmer and suits small details and handwriting. Because the ink is water-based, colors can be blended with a little water, which is why the pens are popular for hand lettering, bullet journaling and illustration. Our step-by-step guide to using Tombow Dual Brush Pens covers blending and lettering basics.
Tombow 108 Dual Brush Pen Set vs Buying Single Pens
Buying Tombow Dual Brush Pens one at a time lets you pick only the colors you use, but a full set means you never run out of a shade partway through a project and every color is in one place. The 108-color set also includes the marker case, so the pens stay organized. If you already own some Tombow pens, the 108 slots in the case also fit other Tombow writing instruments.
Who Is the Tombow 56179 For?
- Hand lettering and brush calligraphy: a wide color range in one case, with brush and fine tips.
- Bullet journaling and planners: color-code pages without swapping brands.
- Illustration and fine art: enough shades to blend and layer without buying single pens.
- Gifts for artists and students: the marker case keeps all 108 pens organized and easy to carry.
- Classrooms and studios: one case holds the whole collection.
Tombow Marker Case: Storage and Carrying
The case has a slot for each of the 108 pens and measures 8.38 x 5.63 x 8.5 inches, so you can keep the whole collection on a desk shelf or carry it to a class or studio. Follow the care instructions printed on the pens and packaging for the best pen life.
