Mechanical + Pencil = Mencil?

Post Reply New Topic

Recently, I discovered that I have always been a pencil / mechanical pencil enthusiast. My favorites include Pentel SideFX and Zebra Drafix. - Awkward end of post -

i had a 0.7 mm pentel "mencil" for a while, but i think i lost it somewhere on a bus in northern croatia.

i replaced it with a faber-castell 0.5 mm mencil i bought at a müller in zagreb, fed by graphite from zadar. and i have developed a deep attachment to it.

since then, whenever i went back to 0.7 i'm surprised at how bold and thick it really is.

also since then, i've worn out my eraser and haven't been able to find a refill.

when i return, i'll stockpile for the year.

I have Uni-Ball KuruToga 0.5mm Mechanical Pencil in black, green, and blue.

They have pink and orange mechanical pencils.

^the leads are orange/pink, or the pencils themselves are?

i'd love to be able to write in (visible) pastel pink, that's one of my favorite colors.

though they don't sell pink leads at our local art store here.
