🔹 Main functions of the Poster pen:

1. Large format writing:
   It allows you to draw large calligraphic letters, visible from a distance, with very marked thick and thin strokes.

2. Typical styles:
   Perfect for styles like Gothic (Textura, Fraktur) , Uncial , or even monumental Roman , in large format.

3. Powerful visual effects:
   Thanks to its width, it produces a clear contrast between thin and thick lines, ideal for an impactful visual effect.

4. Artistic use:
   Widely used for artistic signs , framed quotes , or in creative lettering work .

5. Suitable ink:
   It is often used with thicker inks or diluted gouache, and sometimes requires a built-in reservoir to avoid refilling too often.

Poster nibs come in different sizes (often in millimeters) : 4 mm, 6 mm, 10 mm, etc. The larger the size, the larger the letter will be.
