I would like to introduce a new pen that i have found into penspinning.
The mod is called the SugarBall Mod.
Primarily because it consists on a SugarLoaf Pen, and anyball grips.
The Sugarloaf pen is made by Sugarloaf Products, and is called "Whispers Strokes"
Its a double sided brush pen, similar to a tombow or any art pen like that.
To make the mod, you take the larger cap of one pen, and place it over the smaller cap of another pen.
The cap will click and hold itself in place.
You may then add Grips and tips to your likeing.
Here i have placed the mod beside a RSVP SB Vortex.
As you can see it is a bit longer. Weight wise it is also a bit heavier.
The caps do hold Dr. Grip tips and sailor grips. This adds a TON of momentum to the pen, making it quite fast.
The ink is easily removable from the thinline tip, and can be taken out for a difference in weight.
This pen can be found virtually everywhere online.. And most likely in Stores in the UK.
If you look around you can usually find the 36 set for a good price

This pen is a nice venture away from the regular comssa and Dr.KT pens.
It gives a fantastic platform to be changed, modded, and molded to whatever custom needs you have!
If anyone is interested in getting one of these pens through a trade. I have 34 Pens still left from my pack!
Send me a PM.
And HAPPY MODDING!!! -

Do you know how the diameter and length of the barrel compares to the Tombow ABT marker or the Marvy Brush Marker? It looks to be pretty much the same as a Tombow marker from the photo.

The body is 18.5cm long with cap on, 18 to brush tip with cap off.
The body is about 1cm in diameter.
The pens do look similar. looking at the pictures i notice....
The SugarBall seems to have a different length
The SugarBall Cap is significantly different
The body doesnt taper like it looks to on the tombow.
As well. The SugarBall is about 1$ per pen.
The Tombow 4$
For the price of one tombow. You could have two SugarBall Mods

@pen_MAKer: that's for a pack of 36 pens that will give you 18 individual mods. Much less than it costs for 18 Dr.KTs.
If these are sold in your local art store, you can probably pick them up individually for a decent price. -

It could be said to be a Tombow sub. Just like how CT has different name, i like the name of this
Its different its cool.
If anyone who wants one and has tombow can pm me, i will send you one for a very resonable trade just
for someone to compare directly to Tombow mod.
