The watercolor brush seems like more your style.

@GTO Watercolor brush is difficult  to use. The results of normal watercolor brush is much better. 

Forgiveness

The normal watercolor brush seems to have more power in it, more confidence.

kaustavM

Yeah @Forgiveness normal brush is more forgiving.

I like watercolor brush picture because I feel it is softer.  I started off getting brush pen (Tombow Dual)  but was having a hard time trying to adjust to holding the grip while also remembering to do thin upstrokes and hard downstrokes because of their very soft brush marker tip.

@Kaustav - normal brush is the better job, but I dont doubt for one minute you could master the pen,..

@zeldaella @alsart2 I changed the use of brush pen. I use it for fountain pen drawings. I add a few tones with the brush pen with very little water dripping from the nylon hairs.
I now use normal brushes for watercolor sketches, where a mechanical pencil or a technical pen is used for drawing.

A good brush pen dispenses ink steadily without pooling or bleeding on the other side of the paper. Some brush pen brands have wet tips

Watercolor brush pens provide many of the features of traditional watercolor paints in a convenient, mess-free form. Like standard watercolors, they can be spread and blended with water. Unlike other watercolors, you can toss them into bags and cases without a second thought. They don’t need extra space for a tray and cleanup is as simple as capping a pen. This makes them ideal for sketching and working in close quarters. You can buy best quality Watercolor brush pen a
