Pentel "Aquash" water tank brush

The idea of these is that you fill the reservoir with water, and then use them exactly like a brush but without the need for a water-container. This makes them perfect for outdoor work - there is no leakage of water while you are carrying them around and they can be used instantly as soon as you take the cap off them. I saw a fellow-artist using these brushes with watercolour pencils and noticed how easily he could blend in the colours with them. With just a few watercolour pencils and one of these water-brushes you are equipped for any sketching trip. They also work fine with watercolour paint but you might find it easier to have a water-jar handy to rinse them out as you would soon get through the reservoir if you keen wanting to squeeze it to wash one colour out before putting another one on. These are so good you wonder why not every water-media artist does not have them in their equipment box. Even if you don't want to use them often, they are useful for just touching up a finished painting - ideal for example for washing-out or replacing a bit of mis-placed colour. A very good product - whenever I show them to a fellow-artist they always want one for themselves. A perfect gift of any water-colour painter or watercolour pencil painter.

I've had these for around about 8 weeks and I've used them numerous times since then. I've never really tried watercolours before, so I was trying these as a complete beginner but I was pleasantly surprised! They're incredibly easy to use, you just unscrew them, and then fill them with water, screw them back together and you're good to go! It's simply a case of giving them a little squeeze to get going and then you can pick up the watercolour of your choice and start. There's no steep learning curve to using these, they're incredibly easy to use. It's as easy as using a felt tip pen. My sister is doing art at college and has used these a few times and has said they're much easier to use compared to paint brushes just because you have so much more control and they're very familiar to use if you're more inclined to using pencil colours or pens. I have nothing negative to say! They're a great price, easy to use, easy to clean. I've even let my four year old use them and he had no trouble with them what so ever. :)

I bought these to use with some watercolour pencils I received as a gift for Christmas (Staedtler Karat - 60 colour set) so that I could try something different with my adult colouring books. I've not had much experience with watercolours before - neither the paint variety nor the pencil variety, but I am finding these brush pens to be ideal for me so far. I love that I don't have to have a jar of water next to me meaning that I can use these brushes even when I'm feeling unwell and so want to colour in bed. They don't leak at all which is great and don't seem to require any pressure at all to deliver the water to the tip. However, if you hold them totally vertical, you don't risk all the water leaking out. If you are familiar with any of Pentel's liquid ink pens, then you will recognise the use of the same kind of slow-flow mechanism (for want of a better word) in these brush pens. It works just as well with water as it does with ink in their pens. They seem to blend the colours together nicely when using the smallest amount of water (I've kept one brush pen free of water and use the others to add tiny amounts of water) to retain a strong colour, and if you use more it gives the more traditional watery sweep of colour across the page. So they seem very good for the novice, even if I'm not using the "correct" techniques. They do what I want them to do at least! So I am very happy with this set so far. I will update my review later if anything changes for better or worse.

These brushes like always are perfect. They come in 3 different sizes which makes it super useful for when you want to do some watercolour or ink drawings on the go. You can also fill them straight away with ink to create really quick washes on your drawings and give them that extra pop. One flaw that I have always found, but it doesn't really bother me is that if you accidentally squeeze the brush too hard water will come out from where you open it, which is absolutely normal as you shouldn't be squeezing it too hard anyways. However if you do it makes is super easy to clean the colour off the brush thanks to the extra water. When buying these brushes you do have to keep in mind what type of colouring you do, and do some tests before using it as you might end up with a very thick/dense colour on the paper instead of a very watery feel. It really is up to personal preference, but tests are important to see what fits your style better :)

Having invested in some nice watercolour pencils I trawled around looking for a reasonably priced, dependable water brush pen to use alongside the pencils. I decided to try this one. I was unsure whether to get the small tip, or the medium. So, I went for the medium and glad I did. The brush head is large enough to cover some space if needed. But, has a small enough tip to use for the more delicate, tiny areas. Its easy to fill, and empty. Carries enough water to last a while in one sitting if you were out and about. Also, if you learn how to squeeze it just right, you can have good control over the water flow. Its bristles are just the right texture, not too soft and not too hard. Lastly, you have to remember to flush the brush through after each use, so that the colours do not stain, or ruin parts of your artwork. I believe this will last a while. Can't go wrong with this Pentel brand one.

Verpakking was open, penseel was nat en verkleurd

I have a couple brands of this type of brush. These are better quality. the squeeze is easiest and consistent pressure. They also don't leak

je m'étais jurée de ne jamais céder à ce genre d'article pour peindre à l'aquarelle et on m'en avait offerts que je ne retrouve pas j'en ai vite racheté un et pour les avoir essayés, c'est génial, c'est vraiment agréable pour peindre dehors par exemple . Maintenant, je n'ai plus envie de m'en passer . Comme quoi, il ne faut pas dire "jamais"

L'article se compose de 3 pinceaux réservoir avec trois pointes de différentes grosseurs. Je voulais surtout une petite taille pour les micro-détails de mes dessins et coloriages; et ils sont parfaits ! _ L'eau s'écoule bien, et ne sort pas trop vite, du coup on a une plus grande maîtrise lors de l'utilisation. _ Leur pointe est de qualité, les poils ne se séparent pas dans tous les sens, elle reste bien souple et se gorge bien en couleur (Utilisé pour de l'aquarelle). _ Le capuchon se referme bien et je n'ai eu aucune fuite d'eau dans mes trousses. _ La pointe fine est parfaite pour du détails, la moyenne sert pour à peu près tout et la pointe plus grosse est géniale sur du remplissage (C'est rapide !) _ Le prix est canon, franchement pour avoir comparé les prix pendant des heures sur différents sites, ce sont bien cela qui sont les mieux surtout vue leur qualité et le nombre de pinceaux dans le "kit". _ L'avantage de ces pinceaux est qu'ils peuvent être transportés partout sans avoir besoin d'un verre d'eau pour tremper à chaque fois. Ils sont très pratiques. Je ne vois aucun points négatifs sur ces pinceaux, ils sont vraiment bien. Je les recommande à 100% N'hésitez pas à me dire si mon avis vous a été utile ! Bonne journée / soirée

Hiç emin değildim alırken, ne pratiklikte kullanırım, nasıl kullanırım.. ama son zamanlarda favorim oldu. Ben özellikle mürekkepli kalemlerle çizim yapmayı seviyorum. Bunu da sulu boyadan ziyade mürekkebi suyla dağıtmak için kullandım ve acayip güzel teknikler geliştirmemi sağladı. Çok kullanışlı.
