Prismacolor Scholar colored Pencil Set 24/Pkg 92805

These are fantastic, every artist’s dream. The colors are so vibrant and vivid and they blend like a dream. The colors available are a great balance for a packaged product. They aren’t hard and waxy, they’re soft but without being fragile. And let me tell you they LAST. I’ve had my same pack for three years now. I highly recommend. My fave’s!!

One thing I absolutely love about Prismacolor premier pencils is how much the colors pop on the page compared to other budget colored pencils I brought in the past. And in addition to the beautifully vibrant colors, they have a rich waxy texture to them. The colors can be applied in a smooth motion that doesn’t require much pressure on the wrist to get bold pigments. But perhaps one of Prismacolor’s biggest selling points is how well the colors blend. Blending is seamless and often doesn’t require external tools to get pro-level results. Laying the colors over each other smoothly is enough to breed new color options on the page, giving you endless possibilities. A downside to Prismacolor pencils is that they are more delicate than other high-end pencils on the ... MoreOne thing I absolutely love about Prismacolor premier pencils is how much the colors pop on the page compared to other budget colored pencils I brought in the past.

Laying the colors over each other smoothly is enough to breed new color options on the page, giving you endless possibilities. A downside to Prismacolor pencils is that they are more delicate than other high-end pencils on the market. They aren’t designed as sturdy, which means its easy to break the tips when sharpening. And if you’re careless with the pencils, you could event end up breaking their cores, leading to a shortened pencil lifespan. As with many premium art pencils, Prismacolor Premium Colored Pencils are available in different quantities, providing options to suit any budget. You can get sets of 12, 24, 48, 72 and 150 pencils. A set of 12 pencils will run you around $25 while a [hard to find] set of 150 is in the ball park of $130. My advice here is to decide which set to buy based on your level of interest in art. If adding color to your art is a serious step you want to take then perhaps investing in a set of 48 is best. Otherwise, if you just want to fill in some coloring books as a hobby I recommend the 12 or the 24 sets.

I always have a hard time finding smooth colored pencils that are not only vibrant but blend well, color smoothly, and most importantly DONT break or aren’t broken throughout the interior of the pencil. There’s isn’t anything I find more frustrating then sharpening a colored pencil only for it to break or have broken again and again, usually (of course) it’s always my favorite color to use so I am left with little more than a nub and a pile of useless pencil. Not the Prismacolor! . They are sturdy and work very well on all kinds of different mediums. I highly recommend. I’ve included a few pieces I’ve done using the Prismacolor products but, forgive the photos as it’s incredibly hard to get a good clear picture of a piece that does it true to life justice.

I recently had the chance to take an 8-week colored pencil drawing class, so to get into the process, I picked up a set of new pencils to motivate me. I did not realize the world of colored pencils was so complex! First thing I did was a swatch comparison between the various brands of colored pencils that I had collected over the years from other projects – and my new Prismacolor Scholar pencils. The goal: ascertain the differences between the brands and quality levels within each brand. Overall, the Prismacolor Scholar pencils are definitely the easiest to blend - using a blender OR solvent. However, blendability comes at a price - these pencils are very soft, and I have to sharpen them every 5min or so. Also, they are fragile - dropping them (if they roll off the ... MoreI recently had the chance to take an 8-week colored pencil drawing class, so to get into the process, I picked up a set of new pencils to motivate me.

The goal: ascertain the differences between the brands and quality levels within each brand. Overall, the Prismacolor Scholar pencils are definitely the easiest to blend - using a blender OR solvent. However, blendability comes at a price - these pencils are very soft, and I have to sharpen them every 5min or so. Also, they are fragile - dropping them (if they roll off the table accidentally) seems to cause the “lead” to crack inside the pencil, so that when I sharpen a dropped pencil - I have to do it 2-3 times to get a useable point. I enjoyed using these in my class, but will definitely not repurchase- I’ll spend te extra money and buy the “professional” pencils.

Prismacolor color pencils are amazing! The packaging is beautiful! I love the variety of colors, how smooth they color, and how easy it makes blending multiple colors. The eraser helps with blending as well! They also seem to last longer than other color pencils and do not break as easily. Perfect coloring pencils for young adults and adults!

I’ve used prismacolor colored pencils for a long time. They are soft, pigmented and very blendable. You can use them alone or layer colors on top of each other or along side other mediums like alcohol based markers. I always tell my kids to treat them gently and to take care of them. Careful not to leave them in the heat or a hot car. It will cause the pencil color to separate from the wood and make them very difficult to use after. I personally hate colored pencils but these are life changing for any artist level!

if you're looking for the best colored pencil.

i used to be an art student and these are the best colored pencils that you can possibly purchase. they are full color without having to use pressure. they're very soft and full color which saves your hands from hurting and cramping cause you will not have to keep drawing over and over the same area; layering; to actually see the color!. i always buy these colored pencils. there are none that compare. they're even sold at craft stores for alot more money!.
