Derwent Artists Colouring Colour Pencils Tin, Drawing & Colouring, Ideal for Layering & Blending, Wax-Based, Professional Quality, 32096 - (Set of 36)

Good pen, easy on the hand, good blending

The set works super on strathmore's toned grey or tan paper but the white pencils are best on Artagain and black onces on bristol vellum. Great set.

Had these delivered almost a week ago. I expected better from "professional quality" colours but alas! They are hard to blend; if the paper is smooth, they'll work like any other cheap colour pencil. The drawing of Worm was done on Menorah's 180 gsm A4 sketchbook (less textured) while the flower was done on Brustro 25% cotton 300gsm cold pressed paper (more textured). Clearly, more textured paper works better for these. Also, one of the pencils came with a broken lead.

Beautiful colours,loved the earthy colours as well as greens,not much impressed with the blues,these are good pencils but are hard so if you are used to prismas then these you may not like,you have to use little pressure while colouring.for sharpening I found Staedler dual sharpener with graphite sharpener part best for these pencils

Value for money

Item looks old and not like a new stock and box has few dents and the color pencils lead is already broken

Pencils don't really blend, also not soft enough. Poor quality. Better avoid this.

Super product

Pigment olarak oldukça başarılı. Derwent markasının Artists seri kuru boyası yapı olarak biraz sert. Bu nedenle geniş alanların boyanması ve renk geçişli çalışmalar yaparken kullanıcıyı biraz zorluyor. İllustrasyon tasarımında kullanılabilir.

big appreciation for amazon offering a set of these with a damaged container/tin for a discount. i wouldn’t have purchased these otherwise – i already own a few sets of artists grade pencils. upon seeing the discount, i figured these would be great as a travel set, since the leads are more durable than prismacolor and i don’t want to carry around a set as expensive as my faber-castell polychromos. the price was right, so here i am. i stuck them in a more easily transportable case. now, every colored pencil type has its own characteristics. these are WAXY. depending on who you are and how you draw/color, this can either be a good or a bad thing. while the leads are hard, they’re still velvety smooth. the pigmentation is great. i can layer and layer with subtle layers, or i can go in hard for intense opaque coverage without concern over the leads breaking. i like that versatility. i feel like these pencils would pair well with dry pastel for mixed media work. good for detail work, with how well they sharpen to and maintain a point. as always, having the lightfastness information available through derwent is very helpful. this is one of the factors that sets these pencils apart from the cheaper stuff. i would not recommend these for beginners. novices, go for a set of prismacolor. they have an easier learning curve. professionals and students, however, will find aspects of these pencils to appreciate. they’re not bad at all – just not for everyone, with their texture.

Ich habe dieses Set hauptsächlich wegen der dunklen Töne bestellt.Die schwarz Töne sind mal so richtig schön dunkel.Was ich auch sehr mochte waren die helleren Töne.Dabei bin ich nicht so der helle Ton Fan.Ob diese Stifte Lichtecht sind weiß ich leider nicht.Aber für Skizzen reicht es.

delusa il colore non he brillanti anzi sono molto spenti soldi buttati non li consiglio

A differenza delle varie recensioni che ho letto su questo articolo, non ho visto per nulla la caratterizzazione dell'"usato", l'ho comprato pensando che fossero direttamente nuovi e difatti così sono arrivati. Il pacco, come sempre, perfettamente fatto: made in amazon; sopratutto il prodotto era avvolto nella pellicola, ogni colore e mina è perfetta, nessun difetto. Conveniente al massimo visto il prezzo che Amazon propone e sopratutto mi sono arrivati in un giorno con spedizione gratuita!! Consiglio il prodotto a chi lo sta cercando. Sono sempre stata una fanatica di Faber Castell ma con queste mi sto trovando benissimo, pigmetate come me le aspettavo, punta morbida, perfette, sopratutto se volete spendere poco e volete avere una gamma di colori nella media! Ottima qualità / prezzo.
