Marabu watercolour pen

In our wonderful goodies bag at the Urban Sketchers Symposium in Porto was a gorgeous Marabu Aquapen Graphix - everyone got a different colour. It's got a brush pen on one side and a fineliner on the other. Both are watersoluble. Fabulous for catching a movement or a face.

Somehow, it looked familiar. By chance, I realised why. Months ago, I bought a cheap box of watercolour pens in Lidl. They are called Marabu Watercolour Pen, but otherwise, it's identical. Yes, the pale pink and the pale blue pretty much disappear when you add water, but the other colours will be useful for practising people in motion. So glad I was looking for something else in that drawer!
