Thanks to John from the
PencilWrap.com for holding the “Anti-Hoarding Giveaway”, for now I finally got around testing the sketching potential and performance of these
Sharpie Pen Fine Point retractable pens.

While the original fine point
Sharpie Pens were made in
Japan, this retractable version was made in
China judging from its pocket clip.

Initial test doodles on 67 lb card stock.

A few test doodles on
Hammermill Copy Plus 20 lb paper.

Doodling some of my favorite subjects: a team of ninjas and Alien/Predator/Ninja team up.

The
Sharpie Pen Retractable Fine Point performed quite well for freehand drawing, and it would make a fine addition to your
sketching kit. The water-resistant ink dried quickly preventing smearing and could be easily colored with watercolors. The fine point designed for everyday writing is also quite suited for creating detailed sketches and building a pen illustration gradually. While a tad disjointed from the headache that I'm trying to shake off, here is the
sketching demo video I made with the
Sharpie pens and a
Rhodia DotPad.

Wow. That's way better than anything I could draw with those pens. Nice job!
Thanks! they proved to be quite fun to use. Plan to keep them in my daily sketching kit to see how long they last.
