Review: Beautiful pencils - I have used Faber Castle Polychromos pencils for years, they blend the best of other colored pencils I have tried. Yes they are expensive. I did order from the factory but my orders were wrong both times. Now I just order from desertcart if I need specific colors.
Review: Game changer for artists! - I’ve been a longtime fan of Faber-Castell products and I use the brush pens almost every day. Then I came across these after watching another artist use them for the darkest shadows in their graphite drawings. Just wow, brought the drawing to life and almost in 3D. This black pencil is for those artists that can’t decide between graphite or pen and I am happy to say you can have both now! I haven’t done a project yet with these due to the upcoming holidays but I cannot wait. Right out of the packaging and just a few strokes I noticed the quality is top grade. I know what your thinking, it’s just a pencil right? No, just holding this pencil was magical and inspiring. Anyone that has used less expensive products and immediately disappointed with results can appreciate this. I did my usual swatching and gradient testing for values and it was super easy to achieve from light to dark. When using graphite I find myself having to do too many layers or using too many different pencil shadings (h to b). I’m not saying this will replace those but having graphite softness along with the ease of this pencil for shadows is an absolute game changer for me. I will try to post pictures later when I get a project completed.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi I'd like to buy a selection of 20 Faber-Castell pencils by number e.g. 107, 115 - do you sell them individually and if so how much are they each?**
A: These pencils are sold in open stock, but generally run about 2 to 3 dollars each. You would be paying at least $40 for 20 pencils. I would research the sets and see which one has the most colors of what you want. After all you can get a 36 set for about $45. Also, alot of the colors are close so you may even be able to substitute colors you have in mind. Just a thought.

**Q: How many come in a pack?**
A: You can get different size packs, depending on the amount of money you want to spend. I have a 36 and a 48 count pack.

**Q: How many do you get**
A: I got set of 60 but you can get sets in other sizes or order separately. Separately is more expensive. There expensive 79.99 but worth it if you're a serious  artists. I tend to use my prismacolor pencils more . They are way cheaper and have a beautiful finish. If you want to create something that will last the test of time polychromos are the best bet. Prismacolor are softer so they don't  last as long. They're also easier to replace at most craft stores. Whichever you choose you'll use a lot of white in your coloring. Prismacolor white lays down much better.

**Q: what's a good pencil sharpener for this particular brand of pencil?**
A: hello , you can use faber double hole  graphite sharpemer or derwent pastel sharpener.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Soft, pressure sensitive, durable
*by N***D on February 10, 2025*

I was looking for an affordable colored pencil to use to underline a Bible, which almost always has very delicate pages. This pencil will leave a decently dark line with a light pressure. There is no risk of it breaking as long as it is not sharpened with a long narrow point. So far this is the best option I have found without buying an extra 23 pencils I don’t need.
