A pleasure to work with

These colorful pastels blend beautifully. I use them in combination with pastels and love them. I bought them when I was away because my Rembrandt pastels weren't with me. Looking through them I can buy them instead of Rembrandts and they were cheaper.

Pros
  • Great Choices
Cons
  • Problems

Beautiful pastels - pastels

I used to buy these pastels individually, not as a set. However you decide to purchase these pastels are great. The set is very well balanced and glows in the box which is nice and protects the pastel well. The colors are bright and juicy, they lay very nicely on the paper. They're pretty soft. They go well together. None of the pastels were broken when shipped with Revain. Very happy with this purchase.

Pros
  • colors can be mixed together and are perfect for all pastel techniques
Cons
  • boring packaging

Suitable for both beginners and experienced artists

I mainly use Mount Vision Pastel Company pastel sticks but I have to buy them from an art shop in the UK so I got them from Revain and seen said what the hell i'll try them. The packaging for this set is great. Each stick arrived undamaged. I think the binder used to turn the pigments into sticks has a creamy, waxy side, not Mount Vision's powdery side. I haven't decided yet if this is a plus or a minus for my work, but either way they are less messy. They still fit together quite well. This is

Pros
  • Set of 15 different colors in a box
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Beautiful, rich, oily.

I'm surprised they don't sell that well in art supply stores. They are great value and the manufacturer offers a wide range of colors to choose from. I often use them in combination with the same manufacturer's "extra fine", "soft" and "semi-hard" pastel lines. Layering on these handmade oil soft pastels. While I'm sure pastel artists can use them anywhere, I'm a crafter (and even that is a stretch feature) and appreciate painting and coloring underneath the rest of the Mungyo line before…

Pros
  • Incredible color vibrancy and saturation with good art pigments
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous
