Review on Royal & Langnickel Soft Pastel Essentials Keep N' Carry Set - Perfect For On-The-Go Artwork! by Sarah Szymanski

Revainrating 4 out of 5

For what it is, it works very well

A couple of this you should know before buying this case. It is very small, the pad inside is small (5x7 in). I keep this little case in my backpack and use it for quick little sketches. If you want something for some more serious drawing, I would recommend getting a case that can compensate a 10 in pad. The pencils and case is what you are really paying for here. While the pad is well made and the paper feels good to draw on, it is small and doesn't have very many pages (about 12 pages). You could easily fit a 5x7 pad in case that has more pages, but I would just aware of the elastic band that holds down the pad. Overall, if you need a starter kit to do little doodles and scratch, I would highly recommend this case.

Pros
  • The set is perfect for creating quick sketches and studies while out and about
Cons
  • The pastels may be difficult to sharpen or maintain their shape
