I am a huge fan of the Prismacolor Premier soft core colored pencils, lettering pens, and Magic Rub erasers, as they are very high quality, so I thought it would be fun to try the watercolor pencils. And, of course, they did not disappoint. They are very pleasant to use. I like that the barrels are natural wood color, so that they are easily distinguishable from my soft-core pencils, and the pigment colors are gorgeous. The pencils come pre-sharpened in a handy tin.I really like the way they lay down the color on the paper - I don't have to press hard to get good color, and coloring over the same spot multiple times deepens the hue. I tried a few different methods with these pencils, to see how they hold up to my hobbies. They are easy to use wet or dry. I tried several scenarios - dry paper with dry pencil, wet paper with dry pencil, wet paper with wet pencil, dry paper with wet pencil. They all worked well and have different effects. I found using a good paintbrush helps also. All in all, it's a great set with the premium quality I've come to expect from Prismacolor products. If you're looking for a set of great watercolor pencils, look no further - these are the ones.

These pencils are so versatile and easy to use. They are soft and buttery and when you activate the pencil with water the colors absolutely glow! The pencils are very durable and do not easily break. The pencil itself glides easily on paper. It was fun to play around with different values of color using more or less water. I love the little metal canister these pencils came with so they can easily transport everywhere with you. I would definitely recommend Prismacolor watercolor pencils!

I am happy with this purchase. I had a different cheaper quality set before and decided to try these as an upgrade. I can tell a difference between these and my cheap ones. They are smoother and blend easier than my previous set. I do find that temperature does play a part with both sets of my watercolor pencils. If I am outside and it is hot out they work better and go on smoother. If it is cold out they still do a great job of blending I just find that there is a slight difference between a hot day and a cold. I enjoy the color range and am glad I got the 36 set instead of a smaller one. ( I like lots of color options) I am not an experienced artist but a moderate crafter that likes to make cards. One of the things I like to do is take them on the plane with me. As they are are not liquid I have found I can travel with them without issue (so far). I bring an couple of waterbrushes (empty and filled on the plane) and paper towels with me which eliminates the need for a cup of water. I have pre-stamped images on watercolor paper that are cut to small travel sizes and I find I can watercolor. As space is limited I don't usually take the whole set or only pull out the colors I need from my travel bag as all you have is the lap tray. Be warned the lighting is bad but for simple images it works fine for me.

I love adult coloring. In my opinion, Prismacolor are the very best pencils you can get. Not as expensive as some brands, that claim to be better, and are not.

Of the several brands of colored pencils I have tried the Prismacolor pencils put down the best smooth creamy layer of color. That is perfect for coloring images made with rubber stamps I use to make greeting cards; the stamped images are beautiful when colored in. Some colored pencils have a harder color core that makes a stronger point when sharpened but they make a streaky layer of color on the paper and leave grooves in the paper. The harder pencils also tend to leave a cloudy surface on the color if you can get enough of the color to stick to the paper. These pencils are soft enough to not scratch the paper, quickly wear down into a smoother point so the colors can be blended more easily, and are true to the color when finished. All the Prismacolor products have matching color numbers so a watercolor pencil that is a certain number will be the same color as a regular colored pencil, or a marker with that same color number. This is great for using a watercolor pencil to make a color wash background, then a colored pencil or marker to highlight a color in the image.

These watercolor pencils are Well designed being able to use a paintbrush over it, or dipping the tip and water, to make it more acrylic, looking or darker. Got for someone who likes to color and draw also tried them out myself.. depending on how much work you do with them they could go fast. Overall worth it.

Comes in a nice metal tin, with plastic trays to hold the already sharpened pencils. The size of the 36 pack is nice and covers quite a spectrum of colors. Plus, you can mix the colors pretty easy for whatever other colors you need.I made a swatch chart for myself. The colors are very vivid and smooth (with the exception of indigo blue). I have several brands of watercolor pencils, and these are my favorite selection of colors. The colors are Black, Cool Grey 50%, french grey 20%, white, mulberry, lilac, violet, violet blue, non-photo blue, true blue, peacock blue, ultramarine blue, copenhagen, indigo blue, dark green, olive green, grass green, parrot green, true green, spring green, canary yellow, sunburst yellow, goldenrod, spanish orange, orange, poppy red, crimson red, carmine red, pink, blush pink, light peach, cream, terra cotta, sienna brown, dark umber, and dark brown.My only issue with these pencils are the wood labels. Since all the wood sticks are the same, its hard to tell which is which from first glance, and you have to look at the point or the label.If you find this review helpful, hit helpful below! :)

They are definitely better quality than any other I have tried. I have only used these pencils on mixed media paper, and not proper watercolour paper. I do think these are really good, but maybe could be a little better at blending. You have to be really careful with these pencils as they are quite hard, so pressing down too much can leave marks where you may want smoothness. I feel like they could be just a little more soft and easier to blend, they would be perfect. Although again, if I was using proper watercolour paper I may have had a better time.I think that the set has a reasonable selection of colours, definitely enough to work with. I would say that in the future it would be nice for them to come out with a larger set with more colour selection, but this is pretty decent. The vibrancy of the colours is very good, and definitely the high quality you would expect from prismacolor. The pencils are very durable, and easily sharpened and easy to use.I think regardless of the cons I mentioned, these pencils still produce excellent work. I would recommend a cheaper set for beginners, this one is pretty expensive. Make sure you like the medium before buying this set, But if you're experienced and are looking to work more seriously, these are definitely a good choice.Overall I'm pretty happy with them and would recommend the set.

Los colores son de buena calidad, mejores que cualquiera que vendan en las cercanÃas de mi ciudad. Su precio es el mejor que pude haber encontrado y el envió salió gratis en la compra de otro articulo. Color muy rico, consistente y no se desgastan tan fácil ni se rompen, son muy bonitos. El producto llego bien y más rápido de lo esperado. Únicamente tuve un detalle con DHL y es que la caja llego ligeramente golpeada, pero casi no se nota. La verdad creo q los compre en el mejor momento. Me costaron 530 pesos mexicanos. No se por q subio tanto.
