G-Pen

• G-pens are unique-shaped ink pen nibs used with separate wooden holders. The nib has the quality to bend and is elastic, which allows the artist to interchange thick and thin lines in one stroke. This adds shape and dramatic effects to the line. The pen is usually used for thicker lines such as jaw line and the body and is a foundational tool used by all manga artists.
  
  

Kabura Pen

• The kabura pen, also referred to as saji pen, has a comparatively firm nib. It is also used in a wooden shaft holder and is the same size as a G-pen. The only difference is that the firm nib allows the artist to draw lines with less dramatic variations in the width and shape. The overall effect of a magna drawing done with the kabura pen is milder and softer as compared to the G-pen.
