Koh-I-Noor Progresso Woodless Artist's Coloured Pencils - Set of 24 Assorted Colours

The packaging was amazing pencils were in great condition, they have amazing pigmentation

Very happy with the purchase.Pros:* The packaging was excellent, pencils came in unharmed.(This issue is important because earlier I had received broken Caran D'ache pencils from another seller, it was a chore to return it)* Colors are so rich and vibrant! Maybe even more than the famous Polychromos!* The layering takes a bit more effort, but the final results are beautiful* It can sustain pressure to a good degree, doesn't leave too much powder residue or break* Blends well with alcohol based markers, e.g. Derwent, Brustro)(* I am yet to try blender pencils with it)Cons:* Being woodless, these pencils are at least 3 times heavier than other color pencils, though that needn't be much of an issue.* Since they are oil based, the layering is not as effortless, say, as Polychromos- which are of course pricier too. For more than 2 layers, one needs to start applying some pressure.Overall, I am quite satisfied with them.

2 star rated colors faded in sunlight (2 month exposure in winter in Kolkata), remaining colors were fine. slightly softer but similar pigmentation to polychromos.

Okey to use

Its ok. They are looking good. I've added a test image. Blending quality should be improved according to the price.

These color so well. I highly recommend to those who are serious colorers. You will enjoy them and how well they color. 10 out of 10..

Gostei do uso racional e efetivo da embalagem. O produto esta novo e é muito fragil e chegou intacto.

I pastelli sono morbidi e con colori intensi. Li ho subito provati e pur essendo una neofita il risultato è stato ottimo. Buona copertura anche un colore sull'altro. Ho visto che qualcuno li tempera comunque ma secondi me è uno spreco. Basta appoggiarli con diverse angolature e la punta rimane perfettamente appuntito in modo da poter fare anche piccoli dettagli. Si cancellano ma non benissimo, rimane un minimo di traccia. Pur sembrando costosi bisogna tenere presente che è tutto pigmento utilizzabile, non si spreca nulla. E infine è molto piacevole tenerli in mano perché hanno una superficie laccata superliscia. Ottimo acquisto, li riprenderò quando finiranno

Die Stifte fühlen sich sehr geil an. Sie sind so glatt. Ich habe das Gefühl, ein Porzellan-Essstäbchen in der Hand zu haben. Die Farben sind gut ausgewählt und sehr schön strahlend und deckend. Sie malen so gut, wie die Polycolor, was den Gedanken aufkommen lässt, dass es sich um holzlose Buntstifte handelt. Das wollte ich auch haben.Auf der Verpackung steht ganz klar: "Pastellstifte ohne Holzfassung". Mir ist das relativ wurst, nur denke ich man sollte für Klarheit beim Verkauf sorgen. Jedenfalls kann man damit gut und schnell einen Hintergrund anmalen, wofür ich sie mir auch gekauft habe.Jetzt kommt der Koh-i-noor-Witz: Die Stifte haben zwar dieselben Farben, wie die Polycolor-Buntstifte, aber sie haben weitgehend andere Farbbezeichnungen und auch andere Nummern.Bei der Farbe "dark green" haben sie echt den Bock abgeschossen. Der Stift malt hell-mint (entspricht pea green bei Polycolor) und hat eine Lackierung in dunkelgrün und genau die Farbbezeichnung steht drauf. Was für ein Mist!Koh-i-noor, das könnt ihr doch besser!!!

Härliga att förlägga med
