Uni-ball Signo Broad UM-153 Gel Ink Pen - Orange Ink

Nice and bold! Sort of a burnt orange color, yet still bright (not dark burnt). Smudges a bit until dry (just takes moments, but smudges immediately after writing). Very nice and thick nib. Flows smooth like butter!

Absolutely love this pen and the color. In fact I'm ordering backups now. Very smooth flow, beautiful almost burnt orange color which is fabulous! Thanks for the great pen and the even better price.

Honestly this is a really, really fabulous pen for whiting out areas in need of correction. I've tested at least three other gel pens against it and in order of similarity, some either held up well or just did not match the opacity and flow of this pen.

http://www.jetpens.com/Sakura-Gelly-Roll-Regular-Gel-Ink-Pen-0.4-mm-White/pd /531 Held up marvelously in terms of opacity and flow and to be so cheap I was really surprised by how well it worked in compare to the Uni-ball. The Uni-ball is fantastic if you have to spot correct a semi largish area but the broadness of the pen tip makes it harder if you do very fine spots so the 0.4mm of the Sakura is a good twin to the 0.8mm of the Uni-ball.

For the cost which is close to the Uni-ball Signo Broad, I really did expect for this pen to be just as opaque but the ink was actually rather thin over the pens and I tested this against a variety of inks. It just did not do as well as the Uni-ball and Sakura.

Still medium tip and much like the Hybrid, it was just not as thick as it could have been. Repeated layering doesn't seem to be a huge problem but I like being able to put down a coat of white from the onset.

In summation, if you draw, stick with the Sakura or the Uni-ball. Pentel is a great pen company but they just need to thick up their white or make it more opaque.

This link shows my test and the pens I tested these four against.

I am a cancer screening lab tech who uses these pens to mark abnormal cells on glass microscope slides. My profession has been looking for a white pen that writes well on glass and fits under the objective lens of the microscope for thirty years. Finally! A pen that does the job. These are great! They mark precisely where we want and flow well. The lines show up nicely on the background of the black microscope stage. Don't ever stop making these or I'll have to retire...

I loved this pen! it didn't skip and its great for touch up on drawings and manga!
*recomend this to any manga drawers*
