Review on πŸ–ŒοΈ Royal and Langnickel RART-200 Essentials 21-Piece Sketching Pencil Set by Jennifer Roberts

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The pens were ok.

The sharpener sucks. When someone starts painting, the most important ingredient (in my opinion) is a good sharpener. Because if you lose half a pencil to a stupid tip-eating monster, you'll be spending more money on pencils than you'll save by buying this set. The Nag eraser is about half the size of my pinky (I'm not exaggerating). Plasticine erasers should be large enough to be kneaded, at least the size of my thumb. The purpose of the kneaded eraser for those who buy it as a gift is to remove the charcoal from the paper. But then the eraser has to get rid of the charcoal. This is achieved by kneading the eraser to remove dust. It doesn't work if the eraser is tiny. Good quality pencils. Nothing broke and the white eraser is quite decent. Although I would take a similar set of Generals. They have Little Red All Art sharpeners with German made blades and these things cost an extra two dollars from someone.

Pros
  • Essentials by Royal & Langnickel - must-haves for artists to explore their creative side
Cons
  • Expensive
