Derwent Graphic Graphite Drawing Pencils, Drawing & Writing, Set Of 6 With Sharpener, Ideal For Sketching, Professional Quality, 0700835

Quality product and reasonably priced.

Easy to use neat set of pencils

Great set of quality sketching pencils which do what they say on the tin. Four stars for a couple of reasons: they were not packaged brilliantly so subjected to some force during delivery. This may result in the soft leads being broken inside the pencils, time will tell. Secondly, and this may seem a bit picky, the wave pattern on the bottom of each pencil doesn’t line up when in the tin and the name is pointing upwards. For an artist this is really frustrating and looks messy! You can either have a wave pattern going across the bottom of the tin nicely or the pencil names showing but not both. It’s really annoying but if things like that don’t bother you, you can’t go wrong with the actual pencils.

I have lots of pencils do not the full range in one set. I thought all pencils are equal but I was wrong. These are so much better. I did look at Faber Castell and other good brands but most had a limited range so you need to buy 2 sets. This made the full Derwent set an excellent price and I’ve already noticed a difference in my sketching.

I love Derwent pencils, they are great in their collection sets, which proves that they know their products very well for the needs of various levels of advancement of artists anfd hobbyists. The graphic design of the tin cover is perfect for giving a gift to someone or treat yourself.

Ho ever want to start a career in drowning I just recommended thosepancels!

I’m really pleased with this set of sketching pencils. They run from H which is the hardest in the set to 9B which is the softest. The softer the pencil the darker the shading . I do pyrography and if I’m undertaking a complex design i need to trace the outlines and transfer it onto wood. These pencils are perfect for this. I’ve sharpened a few of them already and had no breakages. I do think if you are sharpening pencils you need to use a quality metal pencil sharpener to avoid crushing the lead especially with this set as the graphite is particularly soft. This is a great set for pencil drawing as you have a big enough range to create some excellent colour differences just by changing your pencil. You don’t need to press on hard to great great coverage. Yes you could buy a cheaper set which I have done in the past but I can feel the quality in these when using them and I’m certain I will be buying more in the future. They come in a nice metal tin too. I’d definitely recommend these pencils.

A great set of pencils for sketching. The range of pencil blackness is also a bonus to really create a difference in blending or application on different materials.

Great quality product definitely recommend.

I have always just used the basics....HB and a few others, a 2B, 4B and 2H until buying this set. What a difference. This set can take your sketches and drawings to a whole different level - if indeed you take the time to learn now to use them.The depth of contrast on the paper achievable by varying pencil rather than just pressure and layers. Buy the set, get some good quality drawing and sketching paper and find the right tooth for your particular technique and you'll be very happy with this set

Muy buenos lápices para dibujar, bonitos y de buena calidad

Lápis se quebra com muita facilidade.

buen precio, son dos lapices un HB y el otro 2B mas suave. mas sacapuntas con goma, borra bien la goma. el sacapunta es regular trae depósito para la viruta cuando le sacas punta.
