Pens, easier to do tricks with
Whoa! Did you draw that? It looks amazing! If you meant your picture, yeah I prefer pencil, personally, I think you get more tones and like you mentioned, they're erasable. But then, pens are neater and retains their form for a long time, whereas pencil markings may disappear in a period of time.
I prefer pens, I don't like the 'scratchiness' of pencils :smile:

For writing or drawing? I prefer pens because erasing is effort.

The pen is mightier.
They don't really erase that good... You can still see yellow marks that remain on your paper, sometimes they can rip a hole because rubbing lightly won't erase.

Pens. Less strain on your hand, not to mention that they're better weapons too.

Pens

They're just that much easier to remove from the anal tract after a quiet night in

Pens, you can get really nice pens and i love buying stationery (especially from staples and paperchase) plus pencil fades out over time.

Pens/pencils
Pens run out quickly and i always lose them so at that time a pencil comes as the saviour.
However if you want to write without putting that much holding effort then pens are the best and if you don't have to sharpen your pen every 10 mins.:biggrin:
