Pros & Cons
Pros
The bristles come to a fine point which i was hoping for. This cleans the bristles so well that my pans of watercolor paint don't get too contaminated with other colors.
With better control, the water lasts longer. The internal water supply is real handy.
The nijis are more convenience for plein air,because you don't need to refill as often. I like the feel of the mini in my hand a bit more than the full size ones.

These are not the pentel brushes i have ordered in the past. They are leaky and not returnable. The bigger one literally drips water out of the brush. Not really acceptable when trying to control the direction and application of watercolor paints.
