Dual Metallic Brush, 8 Colors Set, GFH-D8ST

Pentel Dual Metallic Brush Pens (8-Color Set) The Pentel Dual Metallic Brush Pens are a standout choice for anyone looking to add a magical, high-shimmer finish to their creative projects. Unlike standard metallic markers, these feature a unique "dual-color" ink technology where the color of the ink looks different depending on the angle of the light and the color of the paper you are using. On white paper, they provide a vibrant pop of color with a sparkling metallic outline; on black or dark cardstock, the heavy metallic pigment takes center stage for a brilliant, glowing effect. The nylon fiber brush tip is exceptionally resilient, allowing for both sweeping broad strokes and delicate fine details, making them a versatile tool for lettering, card making, and intricate illustrations. *Pros** Exceptional Shimmer:** The glitter payoff is significantly more intense than most competitors, providing a true "liquid metal" look once dry. Color-Shifting Effect:** The ink dye and the pigment sparkles are often different hues (e.g., green ink with blue sparkles), creating a beautiful iridescent dimension. High-Quality Brush Tip:** The synthetic nylon bristles hold their shape well and don't fray easily, even with heavy use. Opaque on Dark Paper:** These pens truly shine on black or navy backgrounds, where the metallic pigment becomes incredibly vivid. Consistent Ink Flow:** The valve-activated system ensures a steady flow of ink without the "scratchiness" found in lower-quality glitter pens. *Cons** * **Longer Drying Time:** Because the ink is quite juicy and pigment-heavy, it can take a minute or two to dry completely. Smudging is a risk if you’re too quick to touch the page. Potential for Bleeding:** On thinner paper or standard copier paper, the ink is likely to ghost or bleed through due to its saturation. Priming Required:** Like many paint-style markers, they require a bit of shaking and pumping to get the ink started, which might be a minor hassle for quick sessions. Limited Color Range:** While the 8-color set covers the essentials, those looking for a vast rainbow of metallic shades might find the palette a bit restricted compared to larger gel pen sets. Overall Verdict:** These are professional-grade creative tools that offer a level of "wow factor" that standard markers simply can't match. They are a fantastic investment for adding premium flair to hand-lettering and decorative art.

These are super unique and super fun, high quality brush pens. They are called "Dual Colored", but don't let that confuse you, as it did me, into thinking that these have to nibs. The dual color describes the appearence in how the sparkly metallic colors from the single brush tip vary when applied to white or black backgrounds. Anyway, it's a cool effect. Another cool feture is the button on back of the pen that controls the amount of ink released on to the brush. It is a real bristled brush too, which makes it a lot more durable, but sacrifices control. So, in all I love this set, the colors are great and vibrant, and stand out well on most backgrounds. The only drawback is that I wish they had a wider selection.

Love how shiny and shimmery. It is recommended 100%. I want to buy again when finished. I will say the brush tip is tricky to use and it takes some practice to get the hang of it.

I was introduced to these at an art retreat and couldn't order my own fast enough. Very rich colors and excellent on dark surfaces. Very glittery! I also have a gel pen set with the same ink. Both are great fun to enhance artwork on handmade cards. Great product. Juicy, the ink flows easily.

I like this pen, but it wasn’t what I needed. It’s more of a very yellow brush marker with a ton of metallic flecks in it. I needed something closer to a metallic paint, which is what I thought this was. Might work great for you!

I absolutely love this set. I wish I came in more colors. These are not a tip pump activated marker. The bottom of the marker has a button that you push until the ink starts to flow. These markers can be used on either black or white papers. The results are beautiful on either one. I highly recommend these markers for your artists materials collection.

I fell in love with these immediately. They are so easy to use, smooth, vibrant, and are lasting quite awhile despite frequent use. They were my first experience with "paint markers" but they weren't hard to use at all. I use them for metallic accents on traditional art. Worth the money!

These are BEAUTIFUL!! THE COLOR CHANGE is really something else it differs depending on the color of the paper or canvas you draw on and is beyond sparkly . It draws super smoothly and is super durable even my kiddo is kinda rough on art supplies used mine and it held up to her use . A few bristles got a little funky but I was able to reshape it and its good as new ! I will be reordering very soon these are deff my favorites now

めちゃくちゃ綺麗な金色！ 黄みが強いタイプでしたが、私はもうお気に入りです笑 最初出ないなってカチカチ上を押してるとインクがドバっと出やすいので注意です笑 無くなったらリピします！

Me encanta la vivacidad de los colores y el efecto

Des crayons qui brillent tellement, ils sont magnifiques !!

とっても綺麗な色で描きやすい！ 違う色も購入する！

These are just amazing! I use them to edge my Tarot and Oracle cards with amazing results. thank you!
