🖌️ Cretacolor Charcoal Set, 3 Pieces (Individual Pack) Review

These three black colored pencils are great for outlining or accenting your sketch with black in three different shades of black.

Very good charcoal pencils! I plan to reorder. Soft to the touch, velvety, oily. Won't make you grit your teeth when you have that "nails on the board" feeling you get when you put hard charcoal on a surface. Smart purchase.

Excellent set, distinguishes light, medium and dark well. I use for sketching and sketching. An oil base ideal for rough sketching on watercolor paper before painting. Soft but lays down darkly without damaging the paper. I'm so impressed I ordered a medium and soft 5.6mm for my clutch holder.

These pencils resemble oily charcoal that glides very smoothly over the surface and blends very well with the graphite. Keep in mind that it is a bit shiny due to the oiliness. be able to sharpen it a lot so you can do really dark details. They are also a good deal because you will have enough pencil for many drawings.

I ordered 3 X-Soft but received a mix of 3 which was a blessing in disguise. Although I really like the texture, X-soft and Soft had a graphite-like sheen. Too bad that the shine could not be reproduced in the photo. But I love using Med for lighter shades. Charcoal pencils can be sharpened and used for fine lines.

Nero pens are made from oil based charcoal which means they smudge-free and work well with watercolours. They also lack the luster of graphite pencils and produce much richer, denser blacks. This is a good set if you want to try multiple strains. So far I love these pencils which I use in combination with my graphite pencils.

Softness of charcoal, much less mess. I love working with colored pencils, but I've found that the beauty of only needing a couple of pencils makes it possible to draw almost anywhere. For those who have a lot of mishaps with these pencils, this could be your sharpener. I love the brass pencil sharpeners from Mobius & Ruppert Brass and replace the blades when the pencils start breaking. The sharp blade prevents breakage. I've found that one of the best tools for blending is a paint or makeup…
