Nikko G nibs are designed with comic artists in mind, and as such the nib is able to create crisp lines that fibre-tip and brush pens just can't match.
These nibs have a little flex to them and are highly responsive, making them perfect for not just drawing but lettering too. Spencerian and Copperplate scripts can both be achieved using a G nib, as well as the 'modern calligraphy' style, for which in fact, the Nikko G nib is the most widely used.
The flexible nature of this nib makes it perfect for drawing incredibly fine hairlines or much bolder, broader lines on down strokes.
If using fountain pen inks with dip pens, you may find the ink to be a little too thin to work well. We've found that specialist calligraphy inks give the best performance with dip pen nibs.
Large nib size.Orders placed before 3pm Monday to Friday will normally be sent out the same day.
