PrismacolorScholar Colored Pencils Adult Coloring 60 Pack

These are the full color selection of the 60pcs. It's a gift so nothing else to say about them yet.

I didn’t really like using color pencils until I discovered burnishing, and then I fell in love with using them. I have a small set of the regular Prismacolor pencils but couldn’t afford a set with more colors. Regular Prismacolors are softer & easier to use but they do wear down quickly. This set of Scholars are the perfect solution with lots of colors, being more affordable and they last longer due to the pencils being harder with more wax. The two white pencils that are included are perfect for burnishing.What is burnishing? It is smoothing & filling in the look of color pencils by going over a color in white or a colorless blender pencil. It will look flatter, more like a marker but not quite that smooth. You can then use the color on top again if the color lightened from using white. For example, lay down some blue, burnish with the white pencil and if the blue now looks a tiny bit lighter lay down some more blue, and burnish again with white if desired. I keep repeating the process until I get the look I desire, usually 4 layers of a color & white total.Tip to not break the pencil tips: use a manual sharpener with a large hole to sharpen them. I discovered by accident that the tips don’t break using the larger hole rather than the smaller one on my manual sharpener. This is a game changer!As I’m currently wearing down a few of the Scholar pencils I’ll replace them with the open stock regular Prismacolor pencils and use them in conjunction with the Scholars to make them last longer. Eventually, I may buy another set of Scholars as I love them and find I can get pretty much the same look to the regular Prismacolors with a little more effort.

Nice set of colored pencils. Good quality an nice color selection.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Love them, holds a point well, beautiful colors.

Quiero saber por qué el color dorado no está? Y el plateado si….

Bought for grands but they are nice with art pencils as added colors

my wife loves this brand and would recommend them to anyone

These are great for scripture journaling. They don’t smear, the variety of colors is a good value for the price. If you want the colors to look smoother, use the white pencils or purchase the Prismacolor blending pencils to burnish your finished picture. I do prefer the Premiere version, but if you are looking for a more affordable and quality item, buy these. I won’t use any other brand!
