Norberg & Linden XXL Drawing Set - Sketching and Charcoal Pencils. 100 Page Drawing Pad, Kneaded Eraser, and Graphite. Art Set for Kids, Teens and Adults

This was the perfect gift for my friend overseas and it was already packaged so well that I could send it in her care package as is.

It has everything like the picture. I bought it for my daughter and she loves it.

Great condition!

I was very excited to give this to my son today for a Christmas as he loves to sketch but after opening the box which was sealed in plastic, the cover of the drawing set looked damaged with water spots/mold (see pictures). How it could look like that inside a sealed box is beyond me but it’s not something I want my son handling!

It comes with so much, I’m using it for sketching obviously and it helps thought a bought a stand for my iPad to sketch and I’ve been using both all together and it’s been very useful.

My usage was to be able to cultivate my drawing expertise in a portable fashion.

Daughter loved it!!!

The recipients were very happy with the gifts.

Very nice sketch kit with nice quality components.

Unknown residue all over it, Im uncertain if I should take this home where my two little girls live. My perspective is of someone who used to draw all the time, then went stopped when I got in college ten years ago. So, therefore Im no professional or anything like that, but I do know a little bit. Update: returned the other received another and there was none of the stuff on it. Now moving onto the actual product. The paper is very course, which is great for getting the lead (graphite) off the pencil. In that same regards it makes it hard to erase and make clean drawings with. It also make it pretty difficult to make light markings. The paper is not smug resistant though, as stated in the sketch pad. The pencils are nice, long, and basic; each of the twelve would have a use for different reasons, which is good and not so good. Good because you can refine your work, not so good because down the line you will not have them all, weather misplaced or used up. Ill try to update this when Ive used all the other items in this set, but Im pretty hopeful with what I have gotten.
