Languo 54 Farben Retraktierbare Gelstifte 0,7mm zum Ausmalen und Zeichnen

These pen work great! Love them would purchase them again!

How you like these will depend on your usage. Writing is luxurious and the ink flows very nicely. However, when it comes to coloring with them, you need to apply pressure, but not too much. I found it trickier than some other brands and my hand got tired much more quickly than with the .6mm versions. The ink just flows from those, but these are different. They don't require as much pressure as the 1mm versions, so my pages didn't wrinkle or warp with these. The colors align across the different pens which is great if you want to mix and match. For now I'm going to stick with the .6mm versions as they work well for writing, provide more colors and a nicer coloring experience.

I am a Languo fan and was very curious about these- I've heard the ink is identical to the needle nose tipped pens, so if you have those, these are basically dupes with a click mechanism. And, as one artist pointed out, she's concerned about the fact that since the ends aren't capped (they come with the red wax nubs on them that you have to remove) the airflow might create a. situation where the acrylic based ink dries out in the pen. I'm cautious about that, but since this is a rollerball and not a free flow nib, like traditional Languo pens, maybe the rollerball is sealed until you roll it when using the pen. That's something I will have to watch over time.

These are a tiny bit more scratchy than the traditional Languo pens, but one thing I did notice that I liked a lot is that it seemed like I could use these on more of an extreme angle- if you are used to doing ballpoint art, you may be able to "shade" with pens in a way that gel pen tips don't always allow for, and I was able to do that with these in a way I don't think I am able to with my needle nose pens, especially the finer nibs. I need to experiment with this more, but it was nice to do some traditional shading and blending in a way I don't think I have been able to with my traditional Languos, which I tend to use more for "filling", if that makes sense.
