Uni-ball Color Mechanical Pencil - 0.5 mm - Orange Body - Orange Lead

kounichiwa i looooooooooooooooooooooooooove mech pencils

I bought two set of them (totally 12) and none of them go with even one lead in it. The pencil itself is good but no lead in it made me disappointed.

I use colored pencils to render artworks, and the idea of having a pencil that a) is always sharp, b) vibrant and easy to see, and c) easily erased was really appealing. At first I was unsure about making the purchase because it seemed like a lot of people were talking about how breakable and useless the lead is, but at $1.65, I figured it was worth the risk. Well, I just got it in the mail today and immediately tested it out. It is awesome, and I just couldn't stop at the thumbnail. I went to do a complete drawing with nothing but this pink pencil. It's so smooth and blends incredibly well. I was also impressed with it's spectrum in value. It can achieve dark darks and light lights, and I mean, it's pink. That's a plus in itself. Also, I had no problem with sensitive lead. I'm pretty heavy handed when I draw, and it wasn't an issue at all. I'll probably go on to buy more if not all of the colors. :)

This pencil is amazing for it's price. I thought the blue led was a little too soft, but I bought this pencil to write in normal led, so I didn't try the blue led for a long time. As a regular writing utensil it is awesome. It holds the led steady and writes well. I'd very much recommend this pencil, especially for it's cheap price :)

It's a well-made pencil. I like the grip on the Pilot pencils a bit better though. The red color for the Uni-ball pencils is darker and redder than the corresponding red in the Pilot line.
