Review on Derwent Charcoal Pencils Count 39000 by Kelly Caballes

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Regular pencils but prefer Ritmo charcoal

I mostly use Ritmo charcoal from Art Alternatives but decided to give these a try. The darkest darkness isn't black, and the pens take a little more force to convey the color than I'm used to. These aren't bad pencils, but I would recommend Ritmo charcoal pencils for both professional use and beginners. You won't make a bad artist great, but having the right tools is inspiring in itself.

Pros
  • Similar to graphite pencils
Cons
  • Not as thick as others
