Faber-Castell Art & Graphic Polychromos Colour Pencil, (189), Cinnamon, For Art, Craft, Drawing, Sketching, Home, School, University, Colouring

Supplied by aartos in the UK - The small batch of Faber-Castell Polychromos coloured pencils were packed with care, sent by Royal Mail. These are a harder core pencil that sharpen to a fine point for detail work.Excellent quality, suitable for professional artwork, popular with pet portrait artists and colourists. They are rather expensive for colouring book use, but they do play nicely on them.Individual colours can be bought as open-stock.The colour range is very decent and the range of greys is particularly wide.Comfortable in the hand if you like a round barrel.The only downside for me is the smart gold lettering is difficult to read.

Excellent for model work, so easy to use.

Loved the coloured pencils.

Item was well wrapped to avoid damage to the pencil. It's a good quality pencil that is quite soft and smooth.

Came quick, well packaged, best pigment you can get

Just what I was after a nice soft white pencil. Well packaged so it didn't get lost in the post.

Great very dark ‘pencil’ that works really well with my other standard graphite pencils. Charcoal and other heavy carbon pencils have either been too obvious/stuck out or just not even worked over a shiny graphite layer, but this does the job. I’m guessing it’s considered a colour ‘crayon’ rather than pencil but blends well and you can cover already heavily pencillled areas. Probably best as a finisher as harder to erase/lift. Basically am surprised as a crayon would not have been my first choice but have tried all the 10/12/14bs in the world and this is best so far. Worth a go for the price. Could this be ‘the one’…!

Pencil was loose, no bubble wrap or protective packaging, hope lead is not broken. These pencils are expensive, you would expect Amazon to protect them when they are posting them.
