5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely quality pastel pencils
This product was recommended by the tutor on an online art course I subscribe to. Good range of colours and a lovely smooth quality which has helped me produce artwork I am very pleased with. They blend well. I think they are good value for the results you can achieve .
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent quality pastel pencils
As a beginner in pastel pencil drawing, I am very impressed with these. I struggled with charcoal and thought I might have the same problems with pastel pencils but was pleasantly surprised - they are not at all messy to use, and you can achieve fine detail with them. Faber Castell is an old established firm with an excellent reputation for quality and they certainly don't disappoint in this case. I bought the set of 24 which seems to be a good range of colours. They definitely need to be sharpened with a sharp knife and sandpaper to achieve a sharp point, which takes a bit of time, but a normal sharpener will break them so it's worth the effort. They will probably wear down fairly quickly but as far as I know they are available in open stock so can be replaced as necessary.Opinions vary over the use of fixative but I have found that Winsor and Newton's Professional Fixative works very well. I have not noticed any appreciable darkening or altering of the colours with this, after applying two coats. I have got very good results with these pastel pencils on Canson Mi-Teintes grey tones pastel paper.Very satisfied with this purchase and would highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for starting artists
An easy to use set of pastel pencils with a good selection of colours that should help you hit a good variety of studies and subjects.I mostly do amateur animal art in pastel and I only started a few months back but I have to say I love how easily and quickly these pencils lay down art - unlike my coloured pencils which could mean eight hours minimum to draw, pastel pencils take me maybe an hour and a half to three hours to lay down fairly detailed drawings with far more ease.There are drawbacks. They don’t sharpen well so it’s advisable to also invest in a crank sharpener or a craft knife. As they’re soft these can wear down super fast so you will find yourself replacing certain pencils a lot (especially earth tones). Also, you either have to set your work with a spray to stop it smudging ((which can alter the colours)) or be sure to invest in a good way to store your drawings (Special paper or folders). Also, it’s difficult to showcase your drawings to people without them touching the pastel and smudging it everywhere (which can be a pain). Also, you can draw on various papers but it’s better to get watercolour paper or a pastel paper - it’s a bit more expensive but the better the paper, the more layers you can put down (important for animal art and portraits).Lots of pros though. They’re less work than conventional mediums - they blend easy, erase very easily and you can mix colours with work. This is a good medium to start with if you’re not a confident artist as you can easily erase most colours (except black lol). A set of 24 will give you enough shades to do most skin tones - even warmer ones - as you can mix the colours by gently layering shades over each other then blending it out. I’ve created some fairly good warm tan skin shades and the only Caucasian skin tone there is “peach”, which shows how versatile even a 24 set can be. This brand sells in open stock so you will be able to replace colours you run out of or expand your collection or customise your colour palette for how you need it.All in all I love the pencils, they really help me put down art in faster time frames which means my chronic neck and back pain take less toll on me as I try to draw.I’ve included a few examples of drawings I’ve done with the pastels to show how well they work with details (the paper I use is Canson mi-tients).
5.0 out of 5 stars Great pastel pencils, with fab colour and laydown
The pencils come in a sturdy metal tin,with a plastic insert to keep your pencils safe.Already sharpened to a good point on arrival, these pencils were ready to go from the moment I opened them up, and they did not disappoint! the colours are perfect, with bright and vivid yellows, oranges, reds, and blues through to more muted browns and green along with a cold and warm gray. White and black, of course, are i there too.Compared to other pastel pencils I've used these are smooth, consistent, and have good colour laydown. No crumbling, breaking, scratching or misfires.They blend extremely well and react perfectly to different degrees of pressure. you really do feel in control o these pencils.There's minimal dust to contend with and, so far, I've used very minimal fixative to secure the pastel to the paper.I love them and now wish I'd bought a bigger set!
5.0 out of 5 stars Great pencils
Really nice quality for the price & they work well on dark backgrounds too!
Work great
I like to use these to sketch on canvas instead of HB pencils as they rub off with paint or damp rag. They sharpen well. They are soft but not too soft. This was a great value and I use them with pastels, sketch on canvas and for adult coloring books.
Great product. Good value.
Excellent service
super nice
Super nice pencils. I love the selection of color. Work really well on dark paper :)
Pastelli secchi eccezionali!
Matite colorate dalla perfetta consistenza farinosa e leggera che adoro. A mio parere fanno a gara con le Conté de Paris come qualità e resa! Trovo personalmente la scelta cromatica un po' difficile da comprendere visto che nella confezione si trovano tante terre adatte all'incarnato, ma molto simili fra loro a discapito di toni più accesi, adatti a lavori un po' più pop, ma è una considerazione moooolto personale. Nel complesso li adoro!
