Maru-pen/G-pen/Saji-pen I use when I have lost of time and I was to feel like a pro. For Shojo manga I like to use ink that isn't water poof and for I guess my Shonen manga I like to use the water poof ink cause it just looks thicker. <3 For my lazy days I use Permawriter II in different sizes. And for my in a rush days and what I use mostly are Micron pens in lots of sizes. They are a little thicker then Dealter pens but I don't mind it so much. And for finishes touches I use my Dealter pens. They are so thin it's magical! For filling in a lot of black space I use a size 02 pen to out line then a Black marker to fill in. it's fun! :3 I also love the effect I can get with some of my old dried out pens! 8D
