Brush pens, real ones with bristles rather than a nib, are not all that common. Most pens labeled as a brush style have a solid pointy nib. They’re very useful and there are lots of ways to be creative with them.
Pentel Sign Pens feature soft bristles, real ones, that are shaped to a precise point which allow you to make a very thin line. With this type of pen increasing and decreasing the pressure applied to the tip results in the line width changing. More pressure means a wider line while less results in a thin one. Once you master that, the sky is the limit!

Comment
These look very cool. I noticed that it appears you can use the PITT pens on them almost immediately without goobering up the pen. So I am curious about what sort of ink these have in them. Are they permanent when dry or will they move if water based media are used over them? Also, I am not getting a sense of how opaque they are.
Thanks for showing us all the wonderful new products that are coming out!
