OhMyWord, I'm in love!!! I mean, yes - I'd read all the reviews and expected something good, but these pens? They've exceeded my expectations! They wrote INSTANTLY from the second I put them to paper. The point is perfect for drawing, though may be a bit thick for extremely detailed spots. The colors are pure (the gold isn't too yellow, silver isn't too grey, etc.) and opaque. I LOVE the white pen. It is truly opaque if you don't purposely spread the ink thin.
I also like that while the silver and gold are truly metallic, they're not glittered or highly reflective. The silver is more reflective than the gold, as is appropriate!
The only negative I've found, to date (haven't actually colored with them yet, just used them on a scratch pad full of marker scratches for color), is that the ink might flow a bit too freely. It may not be a problem once I've used them more and know how to manipulate them better. But, I noticed wherever I picked up the pen from the paper was a thicker dot of ink. Being aware of it, it's easily fixed. But if you're not paying attention and it dries that way then gets touched when everything but the point has dried, I can see it leaving a pit in the middle of the dot. (sorry I can't do a better job explaining it). Also, since they DO lay down so much ink, they take a minute or so to dry (longer if you're doing a thick layer).
Those whose pens have arrived rusted, or cracked, any other problems - I wonder if they purchased them directly from Japanese sellers. The pens I purchased were shipped directly from Amazon's warehouse.
