MAIN-87676 Scholar Colored Pencils, 60-Count

I’ve always fancied treating myself to some of these pencils but they’re so expensive so when I saw this small entry level pack at an affordable price I thought I’d give it a go. I have to say these are highly pigmented pencils with the most vibrant colour. They sharpen well which is so important and they blend well too. They great quality and worth trying for anyone who loves to draw and colour. Having tried them I’ll probably stick to them. Best I’ve ever tried.

Purchased for my daughter. She loves them, expensive but 100% worth it for her GCSE artwork

Best pencil crayons we have used so far. Great for little hands, vibrant colors and doesn’t break. Also easy to sharpen. Bit pricey but kids appreciate the color. We use a mix of these and also the cheaper coloring pencils to balance costs. We probably need to restock every 4 months in this way.

Those pencils were delivered to me very quickly, which is great! Overall, I would say that those pencils are very soft and pleasant to draw with. The color palette is rich and the price is fine, comparing to prismacolor premier pencils. I haven't tried the premier ones, but I'm guessing they are similar quality, but the packaging and richness of the pigment are different. But I would like to say, that two pensils don't match with the color on the paper. I don't blame the seller for that issue, but I'm also surprised that dark "violet" color looks very pale. Or that "permanent green" turned out to be very different. If you would like a cheap alternative to prismacolor premier pencils then it could be an option for you.

Bought as a gift so not sure what they are like to work with but the presentation is good and they look good quality

very soft and rich colors . Easy to use , easy to blend, very good quality . would be nicer if it comes with a case or in a tin .

I starting colouring Christmas last year My Husband said give it a try it may help you I have anxiety long story dont need to bore you all Anyhow 1st picture was crap but slowly I am getting better. I tried these Prisma Scholar ( I Do Not Have The Other Prismas) An I think They Are Amazing, so creamy easy to blend,can get beautiful colour mixes. Sharpen lovely, No breakage i any of them I love these pencils

I bought these to see if they would be a cheaper alternative to the prisma premier pencils. The scholars are very soft, most have a good amount of pigment, some are a slightly different shade to the premier pencils of the same name, they are blendable and work in the same way as their expensive counterpart. Unfortunately this includes lead breakage. One of my 12 set just will not sharpen, each time I try the lead breakers. I am using a manual mechanical sharpener by Derwent not an electric one. I haven't had the problem with the other 11 pencils so maybe it's just one bad pencil but it puts me off buying a bigger set or any more premiere pencils as none of them are that cheap. I will try to sharpen this one with a knife next and see if I can get a point.

They are great for the price. Cheaper than Prismacolor premier pencils, slightly harder. But still very good to use

I need a set of 12 colored pencils for marking text. I specifically need pencils that mark easily with not having to press down hard and I also need good contrast between the colors. It was challenging to see a noticeable difference between the light & dark blues and between the light and dark greens. It was almost impossible to get a set of 12 that one of the colors wasn’t white, which is useless for my purposes. That being said, I purchased one set each of Sargent, Prismacolor, Prang and Cra-z-art and compared them. Here are my results. Prisma was probably the best quality and had excellent contrast between the two blues and between the two greens. They marked easily with very little pressure and the range of colors was great. However, for my purposes, I really needed a pink. Prisma had peach or flesh-tone instead that is not pink enough for my needs. I didn’t choose Prisma for that one reason alone. If my purpose was different, it may have been my first choice. The one I chose was Cra-z-art. There was very good contrast between the two blues and between the two greens, plus it had a very pretty shade of pink. It was the only set that didn’t contain white. Instead, there are two reds with good contrast between them as well. They also marked easily with very little pressure. Prang was very similar to the Cra-z-art and was my second choice. The reason it was not number one was because the pink was not as bold as the Cra-z-art and it contained white. Sargent had the best pink. However, it was the hardest of the four and needed more pressure to mark. Also, there was not much contrast between the two blues and between the two greens.

Un prix défiant toute concurrence. Une texture onctueuse (un peu moins que pour les Prismacolor Premier), proche des crayons-pastels à l’huile (Posca ou Kho-I-Noor, par exemple). Un rendu inattendu de vivacité, même sur papier noir. Aisés et rapides à travailler, ne nécessitant pas de blender. Un choix de coloris très varié, avec certains tons opaques. Deux doublons bienvenus : blanc et noir. On trouve un argenté, mais pas de doré (à récupérer chez les Prismacolor Premier). En somme, d’une qualité plus que scolaire, quasi professionnelle ! À ranger selon ses besoins (non dans le portant d’origine). À posséder absolument !

Me encantan los colores, el único color que no es muy fuerte es el marrón no tienen tonalidad muy oscura... u aveces no se integran bien los colores pero puede ser el papel o la técnica... del resto son muy buenos colores, sin duda los volvería a comprar....

Gute Buntstifte in der erklärten Schulkategorie. Mäßig weich und gut pigmentiert. Sie sind sehr gut für Hobbys. Der einzige Nachteil ist der unangenehme Geruch.
