Review on 🎨 PRO ART Sketch & Draw Pencil Set - 18 Piece Kit with Graphite and Charcoal by Heather Shaw

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Love it, great for beginners or anyone on a budget!

Great little set at a very good price. I've been out of the art scene for almost a decade now, and after crying over the complete decline in my ability, I decided I needed a new setup to get back on track. Not diving into full size parts or anything just yet, I didn't need a serious set with enough stuff to last me 5 years or so much that it would be overwhelming while I brush up on my knowledge. the basics new. Different types of pencils, erasers and charcoal are perfect, just enough variety to get different tones and finishes but not so much that I can't decide which what to take when or having my stuff scattered all over my small workspace. The kneaded eraser is A+++ and an absolute must have for everyone, I've always been a bit heavy with pencils and the white eraser can't always get rid of my hard lines but the kneaded eraser erases everything (and I always thought they were just super nice to squeeze, it's reassuring!), the charcoal is greasy and the pencils are very strong. Again, I'm despotic and these guys don't break me at all. This is truly a professional set! That also makes this set great for any aspiring artist! Not only is it very affordable, but it is also of excellent quality and that is what someone who is just beginning their journey should aim for. Enough to diversify and gain a foothold, but nothing special. Nothing upsets me more than seeing new artists forced to buy huge amounts when they probably won't know what to do with half of it for a while. This can be overwhelming for a newbie, confusing and quite frankly a waste of money. Just be; A handful of pencils, some charcoal (if you like them, some don't, and that's fine!), some paper, and an eraser is all you really need, and this set takes care of everything but the paper. I highly recommend installing it to anyone thinking about it. You will not regret it. and an eraser is all you really need and this set does everything but paper. I would absolutely recommend this set to anyone considering it. You will not regret it. and an eraser is all you really need and this set does everything but paper.
