Caran dAche Luminance 6901 Clr Pncl Set 76 Artist Rng

These pencils are spectacular but I have recieved a few defective pencils that seem to be disconnected from the wooden barrel. One is seemingly off center. It is most unfortunate that one is an important color for nature work. #046 Cassel Earth. #508 Paynes Grey has the same issue. I hope to get a response, and hopefully a replacement pencil, as this is a wonderful set at the end of the day.

These are in the top three pencils on the market. Caren Dache makes excellent products. Theyre a little pricey, but you get what you pay for. Theyre smooth, and heavy pigment to boot. If you cant afford the whole set, then just get a couple of pencils, especially the white. Highly recommended for serious colored pencil artists.

I was afraid to buy it because they are so expensive and what if they did not work well. Well I LOVE THEM. They are among my top three. I only use three. they are so smooth and color is great

I bought these pencils for my granddaughter who is a great artist at age 17. She entered in her first art show and won Best of show... Acclaimed artist Emmanuel Enriquez served as judge. He put a note on her drawing saying to put it under glass with a great frame. She wanted these pencils so they would feather easier and blend better. Well worth the money. And I got it on Christmas eve... thank you so much.

If you are a professional artist dont hate me for buying these. (If it helps as someone who is retired/disabled, my hobbies seem ever more limited!) I waited and waited for a couple years and then after having the Pablos about 6 months and watching more YouTube reviews as well as written reviews, I bought these as my Christmas present. I was prepared to love them and I dont. Why? I find them to be very dry and chalky. You can literally hear the scratch, scratch as you lay down color. No matter how I sharpen, or hold the tip to paper (never straight down), I get the scratch that I am used to with Derwent Studio that is intended for fine detail work. I dont think they layer all that well either. I would give 5 stars to the white titanium pencil for blending. It is superior. The other complaint is that the end cap is not indicative of the color, so it will take you a while to know which one to grab automatically. A color chart will help, but I admit to being lazy as well as having a very good memory so with my other pencils I know what the color of each will look like. I have started doing projects where I use only one makers pencil so I can compare. I did buy 10 of the pencils open stock before purchasing the set which I highly recommend to everyone, but particularly to the nonprofessionals!

Excellent

work good

Love these pencils. Delivered in perfect condition. Blend smoothly

I got the wooden box set of these I couldn’t find them on here when I searched but I just wanted to review the pencils,I’ve wanted them for so long bc I heard they were so good for coloring skin had amazing colors for skin and yes they do!theybare amazing pencils to work w they blend very well and they have a lot of colors for skin and landscapes a lot of och red,browns and colors for skin I do think they should expand their color range like have more pinks,purples,and red but they have an amazing selection of yellows,oranges,the blues,greens and aquas are amazing,also ochre,umbers,browns,and greys are amazing!the pencils themselves are amazing they feel noce holding them in your hand and they are soft but hard at the same time and u don’t have to use them w hard pressure they are very pigmented,the titinum buff is amazing to use w any brand to blend and the white is one of my fav whites for highlighting and things,I searched them all out and out a pic above,also it’s kind of hard to read the number the name is good but the number is hard to see and I like that they come in color order not number order that helps out a lot bc I always have to go threw my pencils when I get them and put them in color order but these came in the color order !

These blend so well. I use them in mixed media pieces with watercolor. Theyre so pigmented, and you dont have to press hard to get good color. I cant wait to practice more with these. Theyre such a pleasure to use.
