Copic Multiliner Grey Pigment-Based Ink 4-Piece Set — Waterproof, Archival Neutral Grey Pens

Copic Multiliner Grey is a four-pen set of pigment-based technical pens designed for precise line work, archival notes, and working seamlessly with Copic markers.

These grey Multiliners give artists, illustrators, designers and hobbyists controlled, consistent ink in a subtle neutral tone that complements marker colouring without overpowering it. The ink is pigment-based and formulated to be waterproof, archival and safe to photocopy, so your line work stays crisp through editing, scanning and layering. Packaged as a rounded metallic body set of four sizes, this collection covers a range of fine to medium strokes for lettering, detailed drawing, comic inking and mixed-media applications.

How do these pens perform with Copic markers and other water-based media?

The Multiliner Grey ink is formulated to be compatible with Copic marker ink, so it will not dissolve or feather when you layer alcohol-based colouring over it. Because the ink is pigment-based and waterproof once dry, lines remain stable under washes, marker blending and other mixed-media techniques. They make a good companion for marker shading and for adding crisp details over coloured areas.

• Waterproof and alcohol-marker safe when dry — resists smudging
• Clean neutral grey tones that blend visually with marker colorwork
• Works well for mixed media and scanning for digital edits

Which nib sizes are included and what line widths can I expect?

This four-piece set includes a selection of nibs to cover delicate detailing through medium outlining. You’ll find hairlines for delicate textures, fine nibs for lettering and technical drawing, and broader tips for spot shadows and stronger outlines. The variety lets you switch quickly between precise cross-hatching and bolder contour lines without changing pen families.

• Set contains four complementary nib widths for fine to medium strokes
• Consistent ink flow and snap-back for controlled line endings
• Rounded metallic barrel for balanced grip and hand comfort

What makes the ink archival and suitable for professional work?

The pigment-based formula provides fast-drying, lightfast and archival-quality results that are photocopy-safe and stable over time. Because it’s designed to resist fading and bleed-through, your drawings keep their integrity as originals or reproductions. That reliability is important for portfolios, prints, commissions and long-term storage.

• Archival pigment ink resists fading for long-term preservation
• Photocopy-safe and stable for reproduction workflows
• Waterproof after drying to protect work during layering and scanning

Who this set is for: Artists, illustrators, comic creators, designers, modelers and paper-crafters who need dependable neutral-line drawing tools will appreciate this 4-piece Copic Multiliner Grey set. It’s a smart choice if you want a compact range of nib sizes that work well under alcohol markers, hold up during reproduction, and provide consistent, archival line quality for both professional and hobby projects.
