    I color for fun, but like to learn new techniques. I have Prismacolor, Faber Castell, Pablo & Luminance. Have been using the Luminance pencils for several months in order to give an honest review. Prismacolor has bright colors, but has a waxy feel when applying and needs to be blended. Due to the wax they are hard on an electric sharpner, so I use a hand sharpner. I like their colors so use them often. The Luminance has a very buttery feel when applying. However, some colors goes on easier than others. The colors are quite limited due to the 76 quantity set, has no pinks and some of the colors are rather odd. After using them for several months, I feel they are not worth the money. Pablos feels just as buttery when applying & are less $. My favorite of all are the Faber Castells. They apply very nicely, blend well and they have a good choice of colors. Actually I use all brands in every picture.

    I am a starter in pencil colors and have tried some cheaper versions before. but these ones, even I, can feel the difference between others and them. very soft, smooth colors, and good variety of shades. its white pencil can work to lighten other colors (to some extent) and comes with two blenders. the wood and the lead are quality and sharpen easily. as someone have pointed out, this set is on the softer side so probably a little tough/inefficient for finer work. given the price though, would recommend if you have the appetite or need for pricier colors.

    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

    Came across these pencils through a review through YouTube. They seem like amazing pencils and are one of the neat. So I decided to purchase a set to try it out. The overall presentation is very nice and well package to protect the pencils. There are 2 things that lead to the rating given. First one is that the blender immediately snapped in two when I was sharping it. The other reason is that the price is too high. They are great pencils, yes, but the price isn’t justices for them. Polychromos are expensive but you truly get your moneys worth as you get a larger variety of colors and pencils for the same price. Overall, amazing pencils but the price is not justified.

    Beautiful pencils. They are smooth and just going on so nice. Great colors. Im enjoying them alot. Not a fan of how they are labeled as it is hard to read but Ill get used to it or relabel them.

    These glide beautifully. Vibrant colors. Still learning how to use them. Presently using them over Pitt and Stabilo pencils. Looking forward to more play.

    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!
