Derwent Colored Drawing Pencils, Metal Tin, 24 Count (0700672)

Missing tin lid and zero padding in box. I fear the pencils are damaged but can’t return as I am on a project deadline. For an expensive item I expect a little more care. Not happy.

Beautiful natural looking colors! Its sometimes hard to find the right color to use for rendering natural scenes in artwork. A lot of colored pencil brands have greens and browns that are not found in nature and two or more colors have to be used to find the correct effect. These are the best I have found. They are a dream to work with, have a creamy smooth lay down and are easily blended.

Great natural colors. Perfect for animals., Soft, opaque coverage. Only down to four stars as these are very soft. Glad to have them in my pencil box.

i like everything about them and I seldom say that about anything

These soft beautiful colored pencils are critical to a professional colored pencil artist’s tools. Wonderful rich colors. The only downfall is that there are only 24 colors.

Great for texture

I love how creamy these pencils are. Theyre fun to draw with! I was surprised to discover I can even erase the majority of the markings.

The best pencils I have come across. They are very creamy and blend very well. I really love these pencils.

These are a complete set of earth tones. Greys, browns, muted greens and blues, ocher, reddish browns, black and white. They complement other sets of color pencils I have. Wider lead (5mm?), sharpens well, blends with other wax or oil based colors. Excellent for setting up backgrounds in natural scenes and subjects. A keeper I will order again when used up.

Though I have not received this order yet. I have an old set at home. These are lovely muted colors that lend themselves perfectly to the coloring books that I have. I am currently using them in Lost Ocean.
