🖌️ Faber-Castel FC117536 Albrecht Durer Artist Watercolor Pencils (36 Pack) - Premium Assorted Colors in Metal Tin Review

Beautiful watercolor pencils, very vivid colors! This is a great addition to my art supplies. They lie flat on the paper, blend well and, with the addition of water, make an excellent watercolor that dries beautifully. A bit pricey but I highly recommend them.

These colored pencils are great. I've considered buying an Inktense set but am so glad I chose them instead. The colors are vibrant and the pens fit well. I use them with a brush that has a water reservoir. The combination is perfect for commuting or working outdoors. I am completely satisfied with these Albrecht Dürer watercolor pencils.

What a fun environment! I'm by no means an expert, but I've had a blast using these pens to create beautiful things that were baffling to me in traditional watercolor paint. I'm used to pencil, graphite and paint so it's really an easy way for me to get nice watercolor work. I think it goes without saying that they are of very high quality; but just in case I went ahead and said it. :around)

I'm just learning how to paint with watercolors through a lot of experimentation. So far I've been using Windsor & Newton Cotman watercolor sets. However, I recently read an article about these watercolor pencils and decided to give them a try. I applied some water with a round brush to spread the color. I was amazed at how easily the colors melted and moved. I then did the same to the spots on the dinosaur, moving the paint back and forth with a wet brush. Then I just dip the pens straight…

These pencils are AWESOME! After watching many video reviews I tried Goldfaber pencils and then Albrecht Dürer watercolor pencils. Goldfaber, while very good, were sent back because they are just WOW! Now I probably should have just gone with the cheaper Goldfaber because that's what I'm into the most and I'm not a professional artist, but hey. Art is so much more fun with excellent art supplies. And let me tell you, these kids are worth every penny! They are so creamy and only require a touch…

living rooms. That's why I overpaid :) Still, it inspired me to buy some cold press(?) watercolor paper and try my hand at real work. It was a work of art only a mother could love, but I loved it. Now please excuse my lack of artistic jargon as I try to be helpful in describing: Pencils draw smoothly and are easily colored lightly or more solidly for different effects. When I added water, the pencil turned to watercolor in a very nice and thorough way. Others I showed it to thought it was real…

I really enjoyed experimenting with these watercolor pencils. They have a lot of pigment, they go well both wet and dry. I especially like the blending effects when I wet them with a water brush. This is my first set of watercolor pencils and I was surprised that they don't redissolve after the pigment gets wet and dry. Had I known about this I probably wouldn't have bought it as I already have a wide range of Inktense pens that work pretty much the same as this product. What I like least about
