36-Count Derwent Colored and Inktense Ink Pencils for Drawing and Art in a Metal Tin

PK Tracere: The colors are nice, well pigmented. I haven't used this type of pencil before so its new and will take some time to figure out how I will use them. Once you wet them and they dry there's no way to erase or reactivate them as you can with watercolors. That's where I will need to experiment a bit to see how I will use them. They are pricey but I like to try different things so I decided to go for it anyway.

Karen: Sehr gute Farben in einer Metallhülle. Ich finde die Stifte qualitativ auf jeden Fall in Ordnung.

Bettina: Habe die Farbstifte stark reduziert als Rückläufer erstanden Dadurch ergibt sich für mich ein sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis, das ich hier allerdings nicht bewerte. Die Stifte kamen wie erwartet mit beschädigter Metalldose (im Unterteil) bei mir an. Liegt vermutlich daran, dass der Verkäufer diesen Artikel normalerweise ohne Umverpackung anliefert - also aufpassen bei der Order! Zum Glück fiel mir dieser Zusatz während des Kaufvorganges noch auf und ich konnte dadurch vermutlich eine erneute Beschädigung abwenden. Die Dose wurde vermutlich nicht geöffnet, da diese noch eingeschweißt war. Natürlich war ich skeptisch, vor allem hatte ich die Befürchtung, dass die Minen gebrochen sein könnten - aber ich hatte ja das uneingeschränkte Rückgaberecht. Jedoch, ich hatte Glück, der kleine Hohlraum zwischen Dosenunterteil und Inlett schien weitgehend als Puffer fungiert zu haben! Lediglich 2 Stifte weisen eine Beschädigung am Holzende auf. Die Minen scheinen unbeschadet zu sein und die Stifte kamen bereits zum Einsatz. Ich erwähne das Alles, um darauf hinzuweisen, dass sogar so sensible Produkte wie Farbstifte als Rückläufer gekauft werden können, wenn der Preis...

KatherineKatherine: I'm gonna add a "tl;dr" to this for right now. If you're interested, keep reading!!

I cannot think of one thing I do not like about inktense pencils, except that I wish there were more colors... But I jump the gun, because that isn't a valid compliant anymore....(keep reading!).... I initially bought the 36 set, but regretted not getting all the colors, so I came back for the 72 set a few months ago (which is actually 71 colors, plus a non water soluble pencil). You can use in the exact same way you would any water color pencil, with a variety of different techniques. YouTube is choc full of tutorials and examples, for those in need of a little direction.

The moment you drag the pencil across the paper, it is surely to bring about that blissed out feeling us artists get when using our favorite supplies, but rest assured, the fun has only just begun.... When you hit it with water, it activates and this is when the colors really come alive!!!!

Great news for those who seek to sell their work: these are mostly light-fast. Derwent has all the information you need on their site...Of course, this is going to change/vary based on how much pigment you lay down, and...

Patricia B.Patricia B.: So, let me preface this review by saying I am NOT an artist (by any stretch of the imagination) and I have never written an Amazon review. My creative credentials are comprised of a lifelong habit of picking up a 1,000 different hobbies, all of which I am OK at, but none of which I have ever mastered. Artistic ADD, in a manner of speaking (no insult intended to those suffering from real ADD). I am, however, afflicted with perfectionism and a very analytical mind, which is likely why I have never become truly proficient at any art form. If the result of my efforts doesn’t look good enough to me, I’ll keep trying for a while, maybe take a lesson or two, get sorta good, get bored with my lack of fast progress, move on to something new, and stick the supplies/equipment/fabric/whatever in a closet to collect dust for the next decade. I think I'm gonna need a bigger house. (But, give me a massive spreadsheet and I’ll make magic happen!!)

I just picked up my first adult coloring book as a stress reducer/time waster that would have some sort of product to account for my (wasted) time. I can DO coloring, I just can’t draw anything that even remotely resembles the target...
