Castle Art Supplies 72 Colouring Pencils Set for Adults - Soft Core

I am so very happy with these pencils I use water colouring pencils which I love but this is another level the soft core means you and shade so well great buy

Lovely to work with. "Buildable" colours so darker/lighter of the same shade. Creamy as suggested in the name. Am finding it difficult to find a nice sharpener that doesn't rip the wood or eat too much of the pencil. Pleased overall. Especially as I purchased in the sale. I have lots of castle art products. They're not the cheapest but I think you get what you pay for. The original website of Castle also does bundles..with extra discounts. Comes in a nice tin so easy to keep tidy and to hand. Plastic inserts is the only thing that lets it down..but maybe that's just me

Fantastic set of good quality pencils, excellent ability to blend and such a great variety of colours to suit everything. Where they are a good quality it makes them strong and durable which is always good when using pencils last thing you want is the breaking too easily. Comes with a lovely little book to help you and also the colour sheet is great added touch.

3 trays quality looks very good. Comes with colour pallette

I am so happy with this colouring pencils set! The pencils come in a black tin. There were no scratches or dents. I like the the way the pencils look - the barrels are round, black with coloured tips. I believe the black colour of barrels adds "a touch of elegance" - the pencils do not look ordinary at all. The pencils do not require much pressure - they are soft and easy to blend and it is really important while colouring bigger areas. It is also important that they do not break if you press harder. I also like the colours variety. In my opinion a 72-pieces pack is an excellent base to start with even in more seriouls drawing. There is just one thing I am missing in this pencils set - either the colour numbers or both: numbers and names. In my opinion it is essential to know which colors make the "colour family" and can be used together to obtain the shading effect. I am planning to number the colours myself and build a colour blending chart - I am used to colouring with markers and colour blending charts are starting poing in every work I make. Overall, it is a very good pencils set, at a very affordable price.

Good starting point for pastel pencils

These are really great colouring pencils and very professional looking ...I have had lots of fun with my artwork using them

I am very surprised at the quality of these pencils given the price. They are very soft, a bit like the Coloursoft pencils and come in a good range of colours, although a couple of greens and oranges are very close. So far I have only swatched the pencils, but I enjoy how they feel. The pencil itself is about 8 mm in diameter with a matte black coating, making them very comfortable to hold. One minor niggle: I would have preferred the pencils at least to be numbered making identification easier. ETA: I have now coloured quite extensively with these pencils and I can confirm they layer beautifully. I can get easily 6 - 7 light layers. I have compared them to the Coloursoft in terms of softness, but there is one big difference - they don't break as easily. You can use a fair amount of pressure and the tips won't break!. So far I have also not experienced any problems sharpening them. I like them that much, that I will purchase a second set for backup :-)

折れることもなく、発色も良く、混色も可能です。この価格ではお得だなぁと思いました。 ◯ーウェントクロマフローに軸も発色具合もにていますが、あちらより彩度が高いかな、と比較しています。 色見本メモと番号が並んでるかと思いきや、順番も並びと違ってるのに途中で気がつきました。72色なので色味は覚えられそうです。

Der absolute HAMMER!!! Diese Stifte sind bis jetzt die allerbesten Buntstifte, die ich je hatte und das zu einem Knaller Preis. Sie sind soft weich lassen sich super verblenden und sehen unglaublich brillant aus und mit 72 Farben decken Sie die ganze Palette ab. Sie sind so gut, dass ich mir überlege noch, ein Set zu kaufen, aber auf jeden Fall werde ich es mir kaufen, wenn die Stifte zu Ende gemalt sind. Ich möchte keine anderen mehr. Ich will fast sagen, dagegen kommen alle Polychromos und Carand’achs der Welt nicht mit. Ein dickes Lob an die Hersteller und die Spitzen brechen auch nicht ab. Da ich einen sehr guten elektrischen Spitzer besitze. Alles toll weiter so

Highly recommend.

Son unos lápices de gran calidad a un precio muy bueno. Son bastante blandos pero no demasiado. Consiguen una saturación cromática bastante rápida si presionas un poco más. La paleta de color está peor estructurada en la zona de los matices azules y verdes, abunda en colores oscuros muy próximos en tono (claro-oscuro) y se echan en falta más tonos medios y claros. El color de testigo de la base se corresponde mal con el color propio de la barra y vendría bien que estuviesen al menos numerados para poder relacionarlos con la carta guía que se puede hacer uno mismo (adjunto la que hice yo). La caja metálica es negro mate al igual que los lápices pero debería tener un poco más de anchura para disponer unas ranuras que permitan acomodar bien los lápices y que no se monten entre sí como ocurre. Los lápices tienen un acabado muy bueno y un tacto muy agradable, la madera que usan, ignoro cual, es de una fibra fina y compacta y permite un cono de afilado muy liso, sin astillado. La barra me responde muy bien al afilador, no se me ha roto ninguna y los he afilado todos dos o tres veces ya. Añado una copia/versión de este Van Gogh. Los colores cálidos rojo-amarillos se consiguen fácil y rápido, son más problemáticos los tonos azul pálido de las paredes porque el azul más claro disponible es todavía oscuro y hay que trabajar más fusionando con blanco insistentemente. Los azules intensos de las puertas sin embargo se consiguen fácilmente.

it's beautiful set and also gives perfect blending. It's been a year using those pencils.. I love them. and it is durable.
