A fountain pen can bring a lot of character to your sketching style but which one is best?

Here's a short journey through a few of my favourites, with tips about what to look out for in a pen. Also, there's a clever pen mod at the end :)

Pens tested...
Copic Multiliner (control)
Jinhao X450
Dip Pen
Noodlers Ahab
Rotring Art Pen (BB Nib)
Duke 209 ('Fude' nib and Pilot Parallel pen body)

Ink De Atramentis Document Ink. Black.

Do let me know if you have any great ideas about what pen might suit me.

If you really, really enjoyed this and would like to perhaps have a sketch, I've just set up a Patreon account and will be randomly giving away drawings to the patrons...
