MASTERART Colored Pencils 50 Colors MANGA SET Special Collection for Kids and Adults Coloring

Great for the artist in your family

So cute! She loved them. They seemed to work just fine for her needs, she is 12 and has not complained.

This set of 24 pencils has a nice variety of colors for such a small set. The pencils are plainly marked with a color name so you can swatch the colors.These pencils will give you fairly vibrant color, but it requires several layers or a heavy hand (or both) in order to achieve the saturated color you see in my quick swatch chart. The lead in some of these pencils is soft and some of them are a little scratchy. hey are not as soft and buttery as the most popular wax pencils, but they are not hard like an oil pencil either.I was able to achieve a decent blend with these pencils, but it requires patience and layers. These are not buttery soft and the wax will not "move" and squish together like some pencils do when blended. They are somewhere in the middle between soft wax pencils and hard oil pencils in how they handle.While these pencils do not lay down like a top of the line artist grade pencil, they are nice for a budget friendly pencil for drawing or coloring projects.

Nice colored pencils with a softness to them for blending or creating different depths of color.

We have a very artsy family so coloring pencils are sought after and fought over. This set was intended for my husband who is working on some art classes for middle and high school students, however my granddaughter just won an art contest at school so it only seemed fitting that she got them instead. She promptly created a sunset on the beach picture for me to celebrate. They sharpened fine. She was able to blend though not as well as some of our higher quality pencils. Overall they worked as expected. She is pleased and that is all that matters to me.
