After my previous post about opaque white markers, I grabbed another model — this time the Pilot Juice Paint ($3.60 for EF).

Pen Review: White Markers from Faber-Castell & Pentel
I am always looking for the best possible opaque white markers and pens for adding highlights, details or accents to my lettering and artwork. So when I saw the Faber-Castell PITT Artist Pen in White ($15.50 for the set of 4) and the Pentel Milky Brush Pen in White ($6.50) I knew I would have…
