The Darkest Cool Grey For Shadows And Contrast

Cool grey dark, colour 871, is the deepest of the three cool greys in the Staedtler 371 range, and this listing is a box of ten 371-871 brush pens.

Grey pens are about value rather than colour. With cool grey dark you push the shadow under a car, the recess of a doorway or the fold of a coat without reaching for black, which can flatten a drawing. It is popular with product designers, architecture students and comic artists who render in greys, and it gives a slightly stormy note to skies and seas.

Work light to dark: lay cool grey light 870 first, add cool grey medium 87, then finish the deepest pockets with 871. Staedtler describe Multi Ink as translucent, so each layer shows through the next and value builds gradually. Once dry the ink is permanent, waterproof and smudge-free under further layers, and Staedtler say it does not bleed through the paper.

See the brush pen range, art markers and brush pens, fineliners and Staedtler.
