Funnasting Dual Tip Colouring Pens (48 colours) – felt tip brush pens and fine liners for adult colouring, drawing and sketching
Product description
If you like colouring that goes beyond flat fill, dual-tip markers can be a real time-saver. These Funnasting dual tip colouring pens combine a fine liner with a brush tip in one pen, so you can outline small details and then move straight into shading and filling.
That said, they’re still felt tip pens, so it’s worth thinking about the kind of paper you’ll use and what “clean” results mean for your project. Some people need the extra performance you only get from more specialised art markers, others just want consistent colour for colouring books and everyday drawing.
The essentials
This set is built around a practical two-tip workflow. On paper, the 0.4mm fine tip is meant for outlines, detail work and colouring small intricate patterns. Swap to the 1–2mm soft brush tip when you want broader coverage, shading and filling larger areas.
You get 48 vivid colours, which is enough to make adult colouring pages feel less repetitive and to keep your palette varied without having to buy multiple smaller sets. The caps are designed to seal well, which the brand claims helps prevent ink evaporation and protects the tips. For most people, that matters because it’s one of the common reasons felt tip pens start to feel scratchy or dry over time.
Key features
The most noticeable feature here is the dual-tip design in a single marker. That means fewer swaps while you work and less fiddling when you’re switching between thin lines and wider colour.
The ink is described as water-based, acid-free, odourless and non-toxic. It’s also claimed to flow smoothly, dry fast, and avoid bleeding or smudging. There’s also a convenience angle: it’s said to be easy to wash off, which is useful if you tend to end up with colour on your hands during long colouring sessions.
The set also comes with a plastic storage case. It’s not just for keeping things together, it also makes it easier to grab the pens for a weekend sketching session or to pack them into a bag.
What you’ll notice day to day
In use, dual tips like this tend to feel most satisfying when your artwork mixes techniques. For example, you might start with the 0.4mm tip to trace a tiny leaf pattern in an adult colouring book, then use the brush tip to lay in a softer gradient around it. Because the strokes can vary with brush pressure, you can create a more expressive look than with pens that only draw one line width.
The coloured caps are also a small but real assist: they make it easier to pick the right colour quickly, especially when you’re switching between similar shades.
One limitation to keep in mind: the set is positioned for colouring, sketching and lettering-style work, but “no bleeding” results can still depend on the paper quality. If your pages are particularly thin or glossy, some markers can behave differently.
Who it suits (and who should look elsewhere)
It makes sense if you’re buying for adult colouring books, bullet journalling, manga-style doodling, sketching, or letter/creative practice where you need both crisp outlines and broader colouring. It’s also a reasonable choice if you want a single set that covers multiple stroke styles without building your collection from scratch.
It may not suit you if you’re aiming for ultra-clean, professional bleed-proof results across very cheap or highly absorbent paper. It could also feel like overkill if you only ever use one line width—then a simpler fine liner set might be more cost-effective.

Is it worth it?
Worth considering if you want a practical 48-colour dual-tip set for outlining and colouring in the same session, especially for adult colouring books and general drawing practice. The sealed cap design and fast-drying, water-based ink positioning are designed to make it more comfortable to use over longer sessions, and the brush-pressure variation is handy when you want shading rather than just flat blocks of colour.
It might not be the best choice if your priority is maximum control on the widest range of papers, or if you only need thin-line work. In that case, you may prefer to focus on pens tailored to one technique rather than a two-tip all-rounder.
Mini FAQ
Are these pens suitable for adult colouring books?
Yes—adult colouring books are explicitly listed as a use case, and the fine tip plus brush tip combination fits well with outlining then filling.
What are the two tips for?
On paper, the 0.4mm fine tip is for outlines and small detail, while the 1–2mm brush tip is for shading and filling larger areas.
Do they dry quickly?
They’re described as fast drying, with a claim of no bleeding or smudging.
Is the ink safe?
The ink is stated as acid-free, odourless and non-toxic, and it’s described as water-based.
Is there anything to watch before buying?
If your colouring paper is thin or unusual, results like “no bleeding” can still vary. It’s worth checking that your paper matches the style of colouring you’re planning to do.
