MARKART 48-Piece Colored Pencils Set for Adult Coloring Books: Vibrant Colors for Creative Expression

Amazon Customer: My daughter and I love these. The color range is wide, and they are highly pigmented. My only disappointment was the that the tin box was dented through shipment. The whole goal was to have a sturdy package we could carry around.

CHUMBLEY: Have purchased many 120 count boxes in the last year. Same quality over and over.

Karie RoperKarie Roper: These are a very good price for these very good colored pencils. I may have missed it but I think these are oil and go down very nice, easy to sharpen and don't break easy at all. I have had these for 2 days and have used them quite a bit. Sharpened them some using an Afmat Sharpener which sharpens very well. No breakage. I did a color chart and the colors look very close to the barrel. A recommendation I would have would be to get a pencil holder of some kind to hold them upright. It is very Inconvenient to have to get the pencil out of this tin. But I definitely recommend these to anyone wanting a very good, economy colored pencil.

Compulsive Reader: Good budget pencils for amateur artists (like me), coloring books and children. These are rebranded Nyomi, which are good pencils. Come in a gorgeous tin, which is excellent to keep them organized and protected. Cores are soft and lay down color easily, so they are fun to color with. They blend and layer decently but not amazing; I can lay down about 5 or 6 layers on good paper, sometimes more (which is very good) and most blending is good, but not all - red and yellow make a vibrant orange, yellow and blue make a vibrant green, but red and blue make muddy, brownish purples. That seems typical for good budget pencils - all I tried produced muddy purples from red and blue and got about the same number of layers. At this point I have tried several good budget brands and they all performed about the same, i.e. Markart (same as Nyomi), Arrtx, Amazon, Kalour (same as round Brutfuner) and square Brutfuner. I would say the round Brutfuner are slightly less pigmented and thus take more layers on the page to get the same color as the other sets above, but are still good. By the way, budget seems to mean any colored pencil set of 70 or more that costs less than $50 and is not rated for...

SunnySunny: Pros: highly pigmented. The reds, greens, and browns are amazing.

Many colors to choose from

Can use these to color but, you can use these to sketch since they are on the harder side. Great for fine details.

Cons: No umber colors, the grays and dark blues are very muddy. I had one that started looking like a paynes grey but, then started looking like a dark green.
Darker grays are often just a dark blue black color.

The barrels do not match the color of the lead. I compared these to my Brutfuner pastel 50 set and Brutfuner definitely beat these in quality and consistency. Brutfuner pastels are definitely highly pigmented, match the barrels, and creamier than these. If Brutfuner made a whole set that matched the quality of the 50 pastels i would be the first to buy them.

I bought these because the frugal crafter mentioned that they had a good selection of pastels but I disagree. Huge selection of light browns, aqua greens, and light yellows but, not a good selection of pinks, light blues, and light greys were muddy blues. I have a set of 40 Luminance, 80 Supracolor, poly, Polychromos 24 but, for the price of these i would buy again but a...
