Bernie - Thanks for this pukka gen on the most useful F-C colors! I am always learning new things. I've made a note for future reference.

As you once pointed out to me, Tombow ABT brush pens seem to be interchangeable with F-C Pitt artist pens.

In my experience, they work less well on folded edges. For folded edges, I use Caran d'ache Neocolor II water soluble wax crayons (one source: [url=http://www.dickblick.com/products/caran-dache-neocolor-ii-artists-crayons/). They can also be used like watercolors by dipping a brush in water and then swabbing color from the side of the crayon in order to get into tight places. The crayons can also be sharpened to a point. It was Alan Wheeler who put me on to these.

Best,

Don
