Faber-Castell Polychromos Pncl Tin 12/Set

Great Product, absolutely love using these pencils, especially because they aren't as soft as my caran d'ache set and so are great for the details bits and so work really well in unison with my other colour pencil sets!

These coloured pencils really are worth the extra money over cheaper options. This is my second set of these pencils and I couldn't be happier with the purchases. Presentation The Pencils just look premium as soon as you see them or pick them up. They come in a metal tin, giving beautiful presentation and a professional look. Quality The quality of the pencils is of a very high standard, when you move up from buying Caryola coloured pencils to these, you can really see why they cost that little bit extra. The pencils also sharpen very well, I haven't had any breaks in the lead. Usage The pencils are Polychromos - for those of you who aren't massively 'into' art and different types of pencils, this basically means they are blendable. They produce very vivid colours - even more so when colours are added on top of one another to produce layers making the colour stand out on the page. I would highly recommend these pencils to anyone looking for a more professional or quality set. The range of colours provided is sufficient for a beginner like me.

Me compré la caja de 12 a mitad de precio para probarlos y estoy encantada. Ya habría probado los goldfaber y no tienen nada que envidiarles a estos pero estos tienen mayor capacidad para hacer capas y conseguir los tonos que queremos. Con solo doce colores puedes conseguir un montón de efectos y colores mezclándolos mediante capas finas y el blanco es perfecto para fundir los colores y que quede totalmente uniforme. Los recomiendo a todo el mundo pero especialmente a profesionales o gente que vaya un poco avanzada en la materia y pueda sacarles todo el partido que merecen.

Polychromos in a good price!!

色、描き心地、とても良いです！

Exceedingly vibrant and versatile pigments, tough and durable leads, and lend themselves beautifully to mixed media experiments. I don't like using erasers most of the time, but they still erase smoothly and cleanly. The colour range might feel restrictive at first glance in this set of 12, but there's actually a lot of room for colour mixing, layering, and shading. It's quite competent with any form and weight of (white) paper (haven't tried this with toned paper yet), laying down the same uniform texture and no loss of pigment. I'd recommend this to anyone, no question about it.
