Staedtler’s Triplus Fineliner pens are among my favorite coloring products. I rely on these pens for coloring small details and for creating optical mixes by leaving white space between the marks or by multi-color marks. Now Staedtler offers a set of 48 brilliant colors in the familiar 0.3mm line width.
My previous review included the 20 Colors Set, the 6 Neon Set, the 6 Pastel Color Set, and the 6 Earth Tone Set for a total of 38 colors. Read it to learn more details about how the Fineliners perform: http://bit.ly/1QnZkQ7

The 48 Color Set combines the four sets mentioned above, plus 10 additional colors. Since the pens don’t have color names on them, I call the new colors: vibrant true red, burnt orange, light terra cotta, dark terra cotta, yellow ochre, light peach, golden yellow, kelly green, dark mint green, and spruce green. These new colors round out the existing mix to create an array of beautiful choices for any look you want to express.
The set comes in a sturdy cardboard box with 3 rows of graduated height pen holders. The pens are easy to see, use, and store.

The suggested retail is US$86.00. With store discounts the set may be available for less. I found the pens at Michaels for US$69.99. http://bit.ly/2rpk95S With Michaels' typical 40% off coupons you can grab these at a great value.
This quality set is well worth the price because the pens endure many more colorings than most fine line pens.
