Royal & Langnickel Soft Pastel Essentials Keep N' Carry Set - Perfect For On-The-Go Artwork! Review

If you are looking to get started with drawing techniques beyond what can be done with a standard #2 pencil, but don't want to commit to a 'nice' (expensive) set of pencils, this is a great set to start with. It's wonderful for students, children, or as a handy travel set.The quality is not amazing, but for the price, it is more than fine. The little pouch holds up very well considering, and even allows for careful organization of the pencils to keep track of pencil hardness.As far as low cost…

A couple of this you should know before buying this case. It is very small, the pad inside is small (5x7 in). I keep this little case in my backpack and use it for quick little sketches. If you want something for some more serious drawing, I would recommend getting a case that can compensate a 10 in pad. The pencils and case is what you are really paying for here. While the pad is well made and the paper feels good to draw on, it is small and doesn't have very many pages (about 12 pages). You…

It doesn’t feel like it will last me several years but it’s a great deal. It is super convenient for travelling with art supplies and considering you’ll pay twice this amount of just the case at an art supply store, this is definitely worth $10 for a full set of pencils, sharpened, eraser, and small sketch pad. If you’re just starting out, the supplies are perfect. If you’ve done some drawing, you’ll find the supplies feel a bit mediocre but still well worth the money

This appears to be a very good product, but it has a few drawbacks and it doesn't really fit my needs. For one thing, the case is much larger than I had expected. It could easily be over 2 inches shorter without the added length to accommodate the sharpener and eraser. Also, the spine of the case is very stiff and folding the open case in half might compromise the stiff spine. These two issues make this case much more cumbersome than similar products that I own. The pencils seem fine, but I did

Got a used opened product. Kit is great for on the go sketching especially if it's lost or stolen. Great for the cost. If you gifting this. Check the contents of the package for smudges, correctly organized pencils and wrapping around sketch pad/case, eraser sealed.Otherwise it's not that bad for practice on the go kit.

This was a present we bought our 10-year told daughter who likes to pack her sketchbook with her. She loves the size that the kit comes in, and it's versatility. It comes with its own sharpener and a set of pencils for sketching, so it's perfect for your on the go jaunts to the beach, the park, or the museum.

I thought this was a great deal for what you get! You can take this with a grain of salt, since I am not an "artist" (yet!), but rather an absolute beginner at sketching. So with that full disclosure.I love this kit! It is very travel-friendly and fits nicely in my shoulder bag purse or backpack. Everything is kept perfectly organized (and of course I am very picky about keeping the pencils in order from hardest to softest), so I can find what I want easily. The pencils seem to be good…

Bought this gift for my good friends tween daughter before they moved. She loves to draw and I was trying to find some that would be travel friendly and this was the perfect gift. The best part is the zipper pouch so things don’t fall out. Great value for the price.

I mainly purchased this for the zippered case and I'm pretty happy with that part. The zipper is not the cheapest quality I've ever seen.it actually zips smoothly without catching. The canvas-type material case isn't too heavy but it isn't flimsy either. The pencils and supplies aren't great quality, but I didn't expect them to be at this price point. If you have better, definitely swap those out. Otherwise, this is a great case for kids, trips, etc. I like having everything in one place and…

I'll be honest - I mostly bought this for the organizer, and that alone exceeded my expectations for the price. I wanted something I could take on the go without taking up much space in my bag. This is a nice, affordable, concise set, and it holds everything in place properly with absolutely no mess. Additionally, there is a strap inside the case that allows the set to be put over the wrist or fastened inside a bag.Everything in the set I have seems to be sewn down properly. The elastic bands…

These kits are fabulous -- they are excellent and inexpensive and great for kids age 2 and up (and certainly for adults as well).1. The exterior is very sturdy, and even holds up to my younger daughter dragging it along the sidewalk. Easy to keep clean -- appears to be water-repellent.2. It's easy to carry. Small enough to fit in a small backpack, but also has a carry-handle that you can keep tucked in, when the case is zipped, or hang out as a handle.3. The elastic holding the colored pencils…

1st order) It’s all included, pencils, sharpener, and a small sketch pad. It has room still to fit another small sketch pad which was my initial plan.2nd order) this value is so good that I had to buy one for my girlfriend, it arrived quickly and she loved it.

A great set of pencils for your artist friend or family member my daughter love them and she's the best artist I've ever seen.

I usually buy the other set of these pencils that come in the plastic case, But due to my current living arrangement I keep having my pencils get broken or lost So I wanted a case to put them in.The pencils are good quality, I wouldn't say there amazing but for the art I do I find they work well.The pad is nice but a bit frustrating to keep it open. The pencil sharpener is pretty cheap though, It's just plastic. I'm actually giving mine to my mother for her makeup pencils. Usually Royal and…
