Faber-CastellArt & Graphic Polychromos Colour Pencil, Multicoloured, Tin Of 12, For Art, Craft, Drawing, Sketching, Home, School, University, Colouring

That brand it was very easy to blend the colors

Very good quality pencils. They hold a sharp point very nicely and blend really well.

Pros:- Rich, vibrant colors that bring artwork to life- Durable leads resist breaking during use- Ideal for both beginners and experienced artistsCons:- Expensive

I really would recommend these pencils to any artist out there who wants to try new brands, or kinds of pencils. They may be a little on the expensive side for someone just starting out, and it’s great that they have options for set sizes. I started out with the set of 36, and I loved how sturdy they are, they have a lot of colors, and they hold a sharp tip pretty well. I’ve gotten a few other brands, but these are by far my favorites. The colors are vibrant, they are thick and durable, I haven’t had any crumble while sharpening. I also like that the ends are covered, I think that helps with their durability.Since I got the set, these are the only colored pencils that I’ve used. They’re awesome! I have multiple Faber Castell supplies, such as the Pitt Graphite Matte pencils, and they are wonderful as well, they’re the only brand I use for my graphite drawings.

This is a great deal for genuine Polychromos in a huge 120 pencil set. I would buy these again from this seller.

So good!!! Blending is so much easier. Definitely recommend .

The pencils themselves are a dream and the color palette is perfect. I almost returned these however, due to them being obviously some one else’s return, did not arrive in shrink wrap and the tin and a couple pencils were damaged. Some of the tips were broken, but appear okay after sharpening. I’m not thrilled about the product being sold as new and not getting a new product. If I had wanted used, I would have purchased used. I ultimately decided to keep because I need them for an assignment, and replacement wasn’t an option when I started returning. So thumbs down for Amazon seller and a big thumb up for Faber Castell for making a product that survived some major abuse.

Reseña en Español más abajo:The colors are wonderful. I have used colors from other brands like Prismacolor, which are great, but these, being oil-based rather than wax-based, allow for many more layers. This is very appreciated when working on paintings that require a lot of detail and many layers to create interesting effects. I am very happy with these colors; they have a wide range of tones, which is always appreciated, and they feel solid to the touch. When using them, they feel smooth; it is delightful to work with these colors.They have become my favorites, although I sometimes use the Prismacolor Premium, which are also good. Both types of colors blend very well; I have not noticed any problems using them together despite their different characteristics.Very happy with this purchase, I am sure I will continue buying this brand; it is super professional. By the way, the vast majority of colors have good lightfastness, so I hope that the finished paintings will last a long time without losing color.**************************************Ahora esto: Los colores son maravillosos, he usado colores de otras marcas como Prismacolor, los cuales son estupendos, pero estos, al no ser basados en cera sino en óleo, permiten poner muchas más capas, lo cual se agradece cuando se trabaja con cuadros que requieren mucho detalle y muchas capas para generar efectos interesantes.Estoy muy contento con estos colores, tiene una alta gama de tonos, lo cual siempre se agradece, y se sienten sólidos al tacto. Al usarlos, se sienten suaves, es delicioso trabajar con estos colores, se han vuelto mis favoritos, aunque a veces uso los Prismacolor premium, que son también buenos. Ambos colores se mezclan muy bien, no he notado problemas al usarlos juntos aunque sean de características distintas.Muy contento con esta compra, estoy seguro de que seguiré comprando esta marca, es súper profesional. Por cierto, la inmensa mayoría de colores tiene un buen lightfast por lo que espero que los cuadros terminados duren mucho tiempo sin que pierdan color.
