Made a lil pen comparison video if you wanna know what fineliners, fountain pens, gel pens, etc. will work best for any medium you use.
Absolutely nothing is sponsored. I wasted my money on all of these so you don't waste yours on a trendy new art supply that's not going to work with the mediums you use. I thoroughly tested each pen against various popular alcohol marker, watercolor, and gouache brands, as well as a variety of different types of papers and sketchbooks to see which pens are really worth the money, are surprisingly cheap but just as high quality, and most versatle for a variety of media.
I also have a sketchbook showdown and watercolor paper comparison on my channel, so if you're having trouble finding one that works best for you, please feel free to check them out as well. I don't get kickbacks from any of these videos. I'm brutally honest if I didn't enjoy something, and I just love to infodump about art supplies and decided to use my powers for good this month.
