KALOUR Pro Colored Pencils,Set of 520 Colors,Artists Soft Core with Vibrant Color,Ideal for Drawing Sketching Shading,Coloring Pencils for Adults Artists Beginners

After completing the color chart, I can tell these pencils are very soft and blend beautifully. I will put them to the the real test once I use them on a draw/painting.SUGGESTIONS to the MANUFACTURER:1.- These are a lot of pencils, stored in 13 trays. For some of us, it is important to be able to locate particular colors easily. To that effect, I suggest to number the trays and add the tray number to the pencils occupying that tay. The tray number should also be added to the swatch template. That way, when many pencils, from different trays are used simultaneously, it would be easy to store them back in the correct tray.Please refer to the pictures to illustrate this suggestion. I used a permanent marker to number the trays, and acrylic white pen to add the tray number to the pencils. As you can understand, all in all, this took some time to do, so I believe having this filing system ready at unpacking this product, would minimize customers relucancy to buy this set (intimidated by the sheer volume of pencils) or improve customers experience with it.2.- I also suggest to have all the information you included in the swatches template (plus the tray numbers) but more importantly the colors' NAMES in a .pdf or similar format so it can be downloaded. This would allow users/customers to do a simple search using the color's name and quickly identify where to find the pencil among the 13 trays.

If your hesitating on purchasing any Kalour set don't. I bought this set after buying the macron set. I fell instantly in love with them so it wasn't even a blink of an eye for me. The pencils don't break easy and are very soft. They blend well too. I want a few more of the Kalour sets to have a full wide range of options. I also bought a travel set that has 154 pieces that includes water colors & drawing & sketching sets. So I just would like to have the full metallic & the full watercolor pencil sets and that should just about cover it.

Hands down a great set of pencils! Had to get this set as I previously purchased 2 smaller sets. Early in my art journey it was important to me to learn how to blend and make new colors, here it's already for you! I find this set to be well organized and thought out. I enjoy portraits landscapes, waterscapes etc and I can blend even more colors. Normally I don't swatch new sets of pencils, I typically will use a scratch paper but felt that I needed to do so with these since there's so many color variations and it was absolutely enjoyable, the colors really pop. The lay down is smooth and seamless, the colors are stunning and having metallics, florescents, pastels and primary colors, the possibilities are endless. These budget pencils will be used interchangeably with my artist grade pencils without a problem and the price means I can buy more when needed. I did get 2 Champagne Yellows and am missing a Tuscan Yellow so I'll need to get that one hopefully as a single. Bravo on a great set of pencils and I highly recommend them to others. Kalour if you're seeing this, how can I get a Tuscan Yellow pencil? 💛 Thank you so much!

Wonderful selection of every color imaginable!! It does take quite a bit of time to fill out the included swatch/color sample and to arrange them. I had my daughter help me. The pencils are very good. I’ve had them before and am happy with them. No, they are not Prisma Color, but there are so many more colors than Prisma AND at a much more affordable price. My daughter got a set too and we are happily coloring away. We both bought zippered cases to keep our pencils in. This is a great selection for those who love to color and/ draw.

I would definitely recommend this brand of pencils. I struggled with which package size I wanted to get and finally settled for the 500. The other reviews helped me choose this time. The last set I purchased did not have the smooth coverage or durability. I only had 2 tips break this set so far and when I sharpened the pencil I was glad to see the center was not broken all the way down the pencil. Because of the smooth coverage, makes blending colors a breeze. Will definitely rebuy this set!

I really like that most of the pencils are accurate to the color on the pencil barrel, with the exception of some of the metallics which tend to be off. Some of the colors have a grey undertone. ie: 227 Metallic Flesh Tint. This pencil color is totally off.

Love the product line.

Love the multitude of colors.
