Castle Art Supplies 72 Colouring Pencils Zipper-Case Set | Quality Soft Core Coloured Leads for Adult Artists, Professionals and Colourists | in Neat, Strong Carry-Anywhere Zipper Case

I’m no artist, I just enjoy colouring, and these pencils are perfect for the job, soft but not too soft, good bright colours , plenty of shades, I ummed and arred,but honestly, for the money I’m impressed. Oh, and the carry case is a very handy bonus. Would buy again.

Fantastic for the price!! Super creamy. Vibrant colours. Brilliant blending. Amazing assortment of colours too. Ignore the bad reviews, they almost put me off buying them. My husband is super fussy and he was over the moon with them.

A lovely case full of wonderful pencils. I am new to colouring and find them just right for the job. So many colours and a very good price too. Arrived very quickly.

Well worth the price! Good pencils!. Good colours.

I have many different brands of coloured pencils inc. faber castell polys. water colours, inktense, artezas. I had been looking at these castle art coloured pencils for a little while. I came across these 72 pencils in a zip up case and bought them via prime. These pencils are excellent for the money. The black zip closure case is great, very well made and has an area of elastication in the middle of the case where you can fit a couple more pencils or pens. I have secured two small posca pens, a good white pencil, blender pencil and an eraser pencil into this case, which ive found very handy. All 72 pencils fit inside perfectly into their individual elasticated holders where they are very easy to remove and return after use. You can see the identifying number of each pencil very clearly. The pencils dont have names and personally thats fine by me, i dont need names on my pencils. As long as i can identify them and these are easily id'd from their numbers. They are wax pencils and are very soft, you can layer them so well. They blend pretty well too. For any novice colour pencil users if you find your work becomming a bit streaky with these pencils just give a burnishing with a light colour or smooth over with a blender pencil and the area will become very smoothed out and the streaks will be gone. They came sharpened nicely which was good. For detailed areas i gave them a couple of turns in my manual sharpener and was pleased that they sharpened into a very fine point. Once i had a superfine point on these castleart pencils they laid the colour down with no crumbling. There are loads of reviews for these same pencils that are in the tin. The odd poor review I believe must be from people who dont know how to use coloured pencils as i have had no problems with them so i wouldnt let the odd review put you off. . I received them yesterday. I started the fairy picture yesterday when i got them and have finished this evenning and i think they have worked great, they did everything a good coloured wax pencil should do. There are some lovely colours included, many of the colours are great for skin tones. The only con I can say about these pencils is thet the white is not very good, however it cab be used for burnishing or blending but its not opaque enough for using as white. This is quite common with coloured pencils where often the white is not that great, so I'm not too fussed about that. Ive added the finished picture which i did with these pencils. They really are great performers. Im very pleased with this purchase and think they are good value for money.. I'd say to anyone try them as Im sure you will be super satisfied with this kit. Update sept 2019. A few more pictures completed using these pencils, I have found that these pencils do have alot of wax bloom, however for the price with the case they are still a very worthwile purchase.

The pencils look lovely and the case well made. This was for a gift so I don’t know how they perform but I imagine they’ll be fine.

Lots of lovely colours, good coverage of colour and soft application. Very good value for your money.

Great art pen set

Urun gayet guzel. Tavsiye ederim.

Este estuche me sorprendió por la calidad de los lápices. Los 72 colores tienen un pigmento muy bonito, se mezclan fácilmente y permiten hacer degradados suaves. La mina es resistente, no se rompe al afilar y se desliza con suavidad en el papel. Además, el estuche con cremallera es muy práctico y elegante, perfecto para llevarlos a cualquier parte. Los recomiendo muchísimo para colorear libros, ilustraciones o simplemente disfrutar dibujando.
