“I like my Magnums pressed together because I could fill in black or a solid gray quicker and better and I can get into corners, and it was a problem with the cartridges. Had a good talk with Franco about doing a line of magnums that were pre-pressed. Franco figured out a way to do it. So that's how we came up with the Freddy Negrete DA VINCI pressed mags.” 

— Freddy Negrete 

“The advantage of the pressed mags is you now have an extra tool built into the mag. You can now take that curved mag or the flat mag and tip it on its side and you could damn near practically create a fine line with that thing.” 

— Franco Vescovi 

Made in collaboration with artist Freddy Negrete, the pressed mag series of Bishop Da Vinci V2 cartridge needles helps you achieve better fills and solid gray. These cartridges are made tighter than other mags for packing color and pure black faster. They deliver more accurate control for detailed shading in tight areas and let you easily do suggestive linework during shading.
