I'm glad my feedback was helpful! I do have one quick little correction to make on your response though - it's generally fine to use your wrist for texture, because texture generally requires really tight, stiff accuracy over flow. It's just that the vast majority of lines we draw are not texture or detail, and most lines do really demand a sense of flow and fluidity - even the shorter ones.

Okay got it.

The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.

Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.

Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
