Review: 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.
Review: big appreciation for desertcart 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.

Good colouring pencils. Got the 72 tin and there are lots of different colours. It would be nice if it came with a more solid plastic "shelf" between the two layers of pencils in the tin. The pencil lead also wasn't as soft as I anticipated and requires a bit more force to get the colour out. (Not sure if it's my imagination but I have used an older set of Derwent Artists colouring pencils [from the 1990s] and I seem to remember the colour coming out a bit easier - not sure if the lead formula has been changed since.)
