Review on 72 Premium Colored Pencils Set: Perfect for Coloring, Sketching, and Shading -Vibrant Colors for Beginner & Pro Artists by Carol Miller

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A great addition to my colored pencil collection

I have a bunch of crayon sets from dollar stores to art stores. Adult coloring books have been a hobby of mine for a number of years and I have collected many ways to color them. I've found that price isn't always a good indicator of tool quality or ease of use. I'm always looking for new colors and bright colors. I recently decided to give them to myself and wow! I was very pleasantly surprised. Others I've tried from Revain that claim to be professional quality have been generally disappointing. However, they really impressed me with their lead quality, color and smoothness. I left no crumbs of paint. They didn't smear either. The color fits great. With 72 shades to choose from, I had a lot of fun coloring during the day. Two very minor complaints: The numbering system doesn't make sense to me so I rearranged them to ROYGBIV. And they are quite difficult to pull out of the shells on the very nice tin they come in. I'd say it's almost impossible to remove one at a time without knocking out everything nearby. Line. Exacerbation, but mild.

Pros
  • BLEND & LAYER - Super smooth even color blend. These professional colored pencils glide smoothly across paper, blend beautifully and are easy to layer. You will be amazed by its rich and deep coverage.
Cons
  • Expensive
