More sketchpad and pen neeping

Stopped off at Borders to use a 30% off coupon and pick up yet another Moleskine book. This time one of the ordinary blank notebooks, instead of a sketchbook, and reporter-style because that’s all they had left. Since I’ll only be using one side of the paper, that ought to work out well.

Then off to Kinokuniya Books to try out some new pens. Got a bunch. The Pilot Hi-Tec-C 0.25 tip is probably the finest-tipped pen I’ve ever used that wasn’t a high-priced technical pen. (This was around $3.)
The brush pens were a mediocre bunch, though I see the prices seem to have come down a bit. My fave of the lot is a Pilot with fine-point brushes at both ends — one black, one gray. No identifying info I can read, because it’s all in Japanese, see?
