Review: Love them - Fantastic artist-grade pencils. These are some of my favourite coloured pencils. They aren't cheap, but they lay down so nicely and are a joy to use. They feel like drawing with pieces of clay - very tactile and satisfying. The pigments are great; you don't need to press down too hard to get a good amount of colour on the page. As I say, they're not cheap, so if you're unsure about them, it might be best to go for a smaller set or buy a couple of individual pencils to get a feel for them first. A couple of mine were slightly cracked. Not sure whether this is a manufacturing defect or if it happened in transportation. This is a minor gripe however. These pencils perform beautifully and I would buy them again. As this set features muted, earthy tones, you might want to supplement the set with the Derwent Lightfast pencil range which contains more colours and feels very similar to use in my experience. These don't feel too dissimilar to the Caran D'Ache Luminance pencils either. Definitely a high quality product. Review: The softer side - I simply love these drawing pencils from DERWENT and I sincerely wish I could share some of the amazing wildlife sketches, which have been created by those far more artistic than I, but the designs are copyright. Here we have an attractive, quality tin of 12 SOFT DRAWING PENCILS with an inner tray and removable (unhinged) lid. The inside of the tin is cellophane-wrapped to keep the pencils from moving around in transit. Measuring in around 17.5 cm in length when new, each pencil comes already sharpened and ready to go. The rounded barrel is orangey-brown in colour with a metallic gold flash before the dipped end, which is the same colour as the core, to aid easy selection. Embossed on each, in WHITE coloured lettering is: ~ ENGLAND ~ DERWENT DRAWING ~ 4-digit Code No./The Colour Name The colours I received in my tin are: ✩ 3615/SOLWAY BLUE ✩ 3720/INK BLUE ✩ 4135/GREEN SHADOW ✩ 5160/OLIVE EARTH ✩ 5700/BROWN OCHRE ✩ 5720/YELLOW OCHRE ✩ 6110/SEPIA (RED) ✩ 6220/SANGUINE ✩ 6510/RUBY EARTH ✩ 6600/CHOCOLATE ✩ 6700/IVORY BLACK ✩ 7200/CHINESE WHITE although the right to substitute a colour is reserved, as is usual for a product of this kind. They are lovely to use, laying down a thick layer of colour when required. From the tin: ‘Made in the UK. This versatile pencil has a unique, creamy texture which produces a soft, velvety finish. Available in 24 natural and sepia tones Derwent Drawing is perfect for wildlife and nature studies as wells as rich landscapes and classic portraits. Techniques: 1. The creamy, extra wide 5 mm core encourages soft expressive tonal drawings 2. The texture and colour range is perfect for animal and bird studies. A reasonable 'point' can easily be achieved with a decent sharpener , in my experience. My only regret is that I didn’t buy the tin of 24 , but the current price for these 12 colours is a great starter point if experimenting. ## Features - Derwent Drawing Coloured Pencils in a Tin: Set of 12 premium quality, earthy tones, resistant to prolonged colour change, for professional artists and hobbyists - Nature's Palette: These thick core pencils are perfect for capturing a variety of subjects, from wildlife and landscapes to portraiture - Professional Quality Artist's Pencils: Achieve a smooth colour application for an opaque finish with excellent blending and layering capabilities, to create texture and depth - Best Used With: Derwent Twin Hole Sharpener, USB Rechargeable Eraser, Sketching Paper and Burnisher and Blender Pencils - Contents: 1 x set of 12 Derwent Drawing colour pencils in a metal storage tin, creamy premium quality, 5mm round core, nature-inspired colours (0700671) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000J69WUO | | Age Range Description | Kid, All Ages | | Best Sellers Rank | 7,425 in Stationery & Office Supplies ( See Top 100 in Stationery & Office Supplies ) 43 in Coloured Pencils for Adults | | Body Shape | Round | | Brand Name | Derwent | | Closure Type | Not applicable (NA) | | Colour | Multi-Colour | | Country Of Origin | United Kingdom | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (2,324) | | Drill Point | Medium | | Global Trade Identification Number | 05028252147576 | | Grip Type | Smooth | | Hardness | B | | Included Components | 1 x DERWENT Drawing Pencil Tin , TAADPT12 | | Ink Base | Pigment | | Ink Colour | Multicolor | | Is the Product Left or Right Handed? | Ambidextrous | | Item Diameter | 8 Millimetres | | Item Dimensions | 19.8 x 1.4 x 11.8 centimetres | | Item Type Name | School Supplies | | Item Weight | 0.09 Pounds | | Line Size | 0_5mm millimeters | | Manufacturer | Derwent | | Material Type | Tin | | Model Name | Drawing Pencils | | Model Number | 700671 | | Pattern | Metallbox | | Recommended Uses For Product | Drawing, Nature Studies | | Special Features | Blendable, Erasable, Soft Grip, Water Soluble | | Style | Contemporary | | Theme | Nature | | UPC | 785525701327 | | Unit Count | 12.0 Count | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | Writing Instrument Form | Colored Pencil | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** Kid, All Ages - **Brand:** Derwent - **Colour:** Multi-Colour - **Ink colour:** Multicolor - **Material:** Tin - **Model name:** Drawing Pencils - **Point type:** Medium - **Special feature:** Blendable, Erasable, Soft Grip, Water Soluble - **Unit count:** 12.0 Count - **Writing instrument form:** Colored Pencil ## Images ![Drawing - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81JEhcAf8fL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How do I use these pencils?** A: Suitable for all types of colour pencil styles and techniques.
