Hello Everybody.This is just a perfect little set of colored pencils. Now, I was not a big pencil user. I was a marker gal. I have seen the light. (:-D)This set comes in a very nice round, sturdy container with a lid. It's compact making it ideal as a take-along set. This set has "oil-based" lead in their color pencils. I purchased this set, because I was looking for a softer, oil-based pencil set. I can't say it any plainer, "This set is wonderful to use". The lead is very pigmented, and wonderfully soft, making it just incredibly easy to put color onto paper.So, most of you are probably thinking that this set is too small to worry about. Please, look at what I've been able to achieve with them. I am not an artist, I just love colors, and coloring. This particular set has made me love colored pencils. The vibrancy is so bright that when I was coloring my first page, I was getting a lot of color while just barely touching the paper with the pencil. Normally I color with gusto, very heavy-handed, but I wanted to be able to show everyone how well they worked with the lightest pressure, and how intense the color got when I burnished. So, I've got a couple photos for you to look at. The first page is a little mermaid taking in a bit of sun. She has a stained glass styled background and she's holding her "trident" and sports a crown. (This page is from "Whimsical World" by Molly Blakemore.) I was using as little pressure as I could, and I was getting a LOT of color. I put 3 light layers into the "ocean" area, starting with the light green. Dark green, and the teal went on next, and I aded some light brown to the bottom. The mermaid herself got all of the blues and purples for her tail, her hair got 2 shades of brown. The rock she's sitting on is not black and white. This set has a beautiful darkest brown, and it worked perfectly for coloring and highlighting the rock that she is sitting on. The stained glass styled background got all of the colors that I did not use on the bottom of the page. I used every colored pencil on this page, all 24.My next page is in considerable contrast to the mermaid page. This page is from "Yoga Lounge" by Vision Street, LLC. It is the first page in the book, so it was also the first page that I colored in the book as well. As you can see, I put my muscles to work. I started with the vase on the left, and I used that "color grouping" for the entire page. The set has a very nice flesh color, and the best blonde I've used so far. You see the blues, purples, reds are so VERY vibrant. When I felt I needed an additional color, I simply "stacked" my colors. Using this technique, I was able to make 14 additional shades to choose from. The background was done using only slight pressure. I overlapped the colors, making new ones. Quite the psychedelic trip, I must say.I have also made a color chart where each color is burnished so that I can see the full intensity of the colors. I have also included on my color chart, the "recipes" for making the 14 additional shades.My last page is the 2nd page in the "Yoga Lounge" book. You see 2 hands with a flower in the center, and a mandala, some stripes, and some dots. This page was done according to a challenge in one of my coloring groups. We were granted 9 colors, which we were given 1 day at a time, and we didn't know what the colors were to be. We were just to guess and jump in. The colors could have been markers, pens, colored pencils or watercolors, whatever we wanted. I used pens, water and alcohol markers, and 4 colored pencils. All of the pencils came from this set. (light gray, light peach, true green, and pumpkin orange.) You can see that the pencils blended in with the other media beautifully. The background was once again done using overlapping light layers of colors.Okay, so what I have to say about these pencils...................... I say get a set. The vibrancy is so bright, and the lead is so soft that this set is very easy to color with.The only thing I might mention, is that like all other softer leads, they can break while sharpening. Don't get frustrated. Just use a sharpener that is stationary, like a school sharpenpener, and the breakages are more infrequent. (This does not deter me from using them.)As always, let me know if you found what I've said here helpful. If not, I want to know that to, always room to improve.Thanx,Mindy

Great product, love how compact they are and the colors are vibrant.

These are a good selection of colors, they write well, and come in a nice storage case. I like the lid also because you can still see the color selection.

I was quick to grab this set since a set of 70+ colored pencils for $15 thats not for children is an impressive price!I was not expecting anything fancy at all, and based on other reviews it seems that these may be somewhat fragile. In what they lack in sturdiness, they make up for wholeheartedly in color payoff and smoothness. I am very pleased in the way these pencils perform for the price. They are comfortable to hold and glide on the paper seamlessly. As other reviewers have recommended, I have made sure to handle them carefully and not be rough with them while using the included sharpener. I have not had issues with breakage when doing this.I agree that the colors displayed on the ends are at times a poor representation of the actual pencil color. If you cant find any reds you may be shocked to find one of the "brown" ones actually colors red, or that a grey is actually black, or that another one of the browns is really deep purple. This happens all the time when I am coloring. A color card to keep on hand to label by pencil number might help you navigate this. A small price to pay for a set this cheap.

These colors are gorgeous! I love how they show the color at the end of the pencil. Sometimes the color on the lead is not the same when it is on paper, so having it on the end of the pencil is helpful. I love that it is soft enough to blend, yet doesn't break super easily. I am not a fan of the sharpener that comes with it, but I use an electric one so maybe that has spoiled me. I wanted to love the case they came in, but as you sharpen the pencils and they obviously become shorter than the others, it makes it hard to find. Overall very happy with this purchase!

My Coloring books great Yes it is fun to use.pencils quality feels good and blend ability and sharpness is great.

Great pencils, beautiful color ranges.

The colors are vibrant as advertised 3 stars, which is why I bought them. Negatives- see images -My project needed Yellow Green. Found on chart #29- Ginger Yellow, DOES NOT MATCH* My preferences; print actual color name on the pencil body as I have discovered the bottom color sample does not match the color lead. I had to take screenshot of chart just to get an idea,and chart isn't accurate. No burs is accurate, pencil lead still breaks once sharpened, good sharpener. I have experienced lead breaks from every brand in my possession.

Molto belle e di qualità

Conforme et jolie.

Bisher habe ich eher die gängigen Marken für meine Zeichenkunst verwendet. Da ich jedoch einen hohen Stifteverschleiß habe, wollte ich mal eine günstigere Variante auswählen. Mit 24 verschiedenen Farben deckt man ein breites Farbspektrum ab. Die Farben sind sehr schön und decken schon bei einem geringen Kraftakt. Sie sind sehr weich und angenehm in der Hand. Feine Linien sind damit gut machbar. Ich bin absolut überzeugt und werde sie mir immer wieder holen.Die Stifte sind unvergleichlich bei dem Preis und ein absolutes Schnäppchen für diese Qualität. Kann auf jeden Fall mit führenden Marken mithalten, wenn sie nicht sogar noch besser sind.Auch die Verpackung ist sehr gut durchdacht. Im Gegensatz zu flachen Verpackungen, ist die runde Dose super um die Stifte darin zu lassen. Sie ist stabil, hält einiges aus, die Stifte sind geschützt und dank der Pufferung im Deckel brechen die Minen auch nicht ab. Zudem passen die Stifte in der Form auch in jede gängige Frauenhandtasche. Damit kann man sie immer dabei haben, wenn man einmal schnell etwas skizzieren will.Perfekt für mich und jeden der malen will. Egal ob Anfänger oder Profi.

学校で使うために購入しました。蓋がすぐ開いてしまうのでランドセルに入れるときは色鉛筆袋を作ってそこに入れて持たせるようにしました。色合いなどは文句なしです。机の引き出しに入れても邪魔にならずコンパクトに収納できて子供達も使いやすいようです。短くなってきた鉛筆もあるので1本1本バラ売りしてくれたら嬉しいです！是非お願いします！

Recibidos intactos, buen enbalaje, todas las puntas intactas.Me gusta mucho el detalle de la punta del color que es cada uno.El estuche es duro.Y la calidad a la hora de pintar es buenísima.Recomiendo este producto.
