Tombow - Urban Sketching Set

Urban Sketching Set

Sketch urban scenes on location with versatile tools in a portable tin

A MONO Graph mechanical pencil for initial structure, MONO Drawing Pen for defining lines, three Dual Brush Pens for immediate color blocking, two Kimonogatari colored pencils for accent details, and a water brush to activate and blend ink on the spot. Each tool addresses a specific stage of the urban sketching process, from establishing composition to adding atmospheric color washes, without the bulk of carrying separate full sets.

The premium metal tin keeps everything organized and protected during transport. At 8.875 by 4.25 inches, it fits in messenger bags without dominating space, while the 1.5-inch depth accommodates all nine tools plus small paper pads. Tombow includes a digital step-by-step guide that demonstrates how these specific tools work together, from capturing building facades to sketching café scenes. The set eliminates decision paralysis when packing for location work; you grab the tin and have a complete, field-tested toolkit ready.
