Review on Cezanne Multicolor Professional Sketching Coloring by Carla Anderson

I think it's a good pencil set for the price. But as is the case with most cheap pencils, I think the same pencil can be sold under different brands - the way to tell is by comparing the pencil's style and design to others on the market . So if you think these pens might be for you, take a look around. I have many colored pencils including Big Ones (Luminance, Faber Castell Polychromo, Prisma, Pablo, Posca, Holbein) and I find that each of them Pencil works that are completely different in very small aspects, but I really like those different quirks and characteristics of each pencil, so I like to collect them. I want to find a pencil that either feels like graphite or feels very soft like a pencil shaped crayon. Pencils from some unknown brands come very close to these qualities, so I keep trying new ones to see if I can find my elusive "perfect pencil feeling". Soft. I'd say they're a little harder than primates and don't stick to the paper's teeth when you paint. Although they are very smooth and shed a lot of pigment, they don't, I don't get it. Catching is felt, like Prim and sometimes Holbein. But because they provide a TON of pigment (and therefore a binder) on even the lightest pass, the grain/tooth of the paper fills up very quickly, making these types very, very difficult to layer and/or mix. This way you get a saturated color right away (and not a dull color of the binder, a real pure color), but if you want to make a gradient, mix another colored pencil next to it and bring both colors together in the middle of the mix, it is very very heavy because the tooth of the paper is filled. I had to work very hard with solvents to lighten part of the color and try to get a blend. It looked nice when I finished, but I'm a big fan of complex pencil smudges on paper without solvents or blender - I love it when pencils just work together. That's why I love Pablos and Luminance so much - they both fit the paper so well. If you are looking for a super bright colored pencil this is great. They feel great, deliver color without much pressure and don't scratch the skin. You can create gradients with them, but simply and carefully, switching from one color to another in several passes with different pens. But if you want to go from, say, magenta to orange-yellow and hope that where two pins meet you get a nice coral just by mixing the pins, that's not going to happen. You need to find the coral color you want to achieve and apply it between magenta and yellow as the pens don't mix as easily to get that color as some other pens do. So for general coloring they are great. . These are just fun, easy to use pens. But if you like playing with colors, mixing and layering for different effects, they are difficult. They are excellent for graphic work with very sharp edges and color differences, but not for softer, gradual color transitions.
