Fineliners

Fineliners are a versatile tool for illustration and creative work. Their precise tips make it possible to work with a high level of detail, whether for sketches, line art, or enhancing contours in finished drawings. The lines are clean and controlled, giving a clear visual expression.

The ink is usually water-based pigment ink, offering good lightfastness and minimal bleed-through. This makes them well suited to sketchbooks and layered work. Fineliners also combine well with other media, such as alcohol-based markers or watercolour, where they are used to define shapes and emphasise details. For best results, allow underlying layers to dry before applying fineliner on top.

With a wide range of colours and tip sizes, it is easy to vary both line thickness and style. This makes fineliners a flexible tool for everything from simple sketches to more complex illustrations.
