Woomer 72 Colors Colored Pencils Set, 3.8mm Soft Core Artist Colored Pencils, High Pigment & Lightfast for Blending, Drawing & Illustration, Metal Tin Box, Single Color Refill Available

I absolutely love these pencils. They are not scratchy at all, like at all--they go down so smooth and velvety, but not greasy like Prismacolor. They are similar to Polychromos in the feeling of a creamy powder laying down, as opposed to a butter, but unlike Polychromos they are very opaque. The palette of the 72+90 set is absolutely lovely with lots of saturated colors, TONS of light pastel colors, which are just as smooth as the rest (so hard to find that!), and plenty of muted, complex tones as well. I recognized many of the color names as being the same as Arrtx, so they probably originally derive from Prismacolor, but I don't have many Prismas b/c I don't like them. But colors like Lime Peel and Ginger are pretty memorable. Still others have traditional pigment names like Madder or Carmine, Phthalo etc. The set as a whole feels like a delightful mish-mash of things I have enjoyed the most from other sets. I will still use Polychromos for my layered, delicate work, but if I were toting a coloring book with me somewhere this would be the only set I'd need. The duplicates are somewhat confusing, and the packaging is unfortunately useless, but it was extremely fun to combine the sets and get them all in a chromatic order I liked, and put them in a zippered case. I cannot believe the value for the price, so I went ahead and snagged the 72+90, the set of 10 pinks, and the set of 30 greens, in case they production quality changes over time. The ONLY thing I don't like about them is, it is truly truly difficult to read the color names and codes. The tiny writing, reversed in a solid oval, and sometimes with the print not being super solid, makes it very very difficult to see, especially at night by lamplight. That's the only thing I'd change but given the price I still feel they are five stars. I am actually returning a full set of Derwent Chromaflow because of these babies.

Very good for the price point (when on sale or with a discount offered). Pigment excellent, very soft leads, similar to Prisma, not quite as crumbly though. No issues with sharpening them. Test was done on a standard coloring book page, since that is where most folks are using colored pencils these days. Considering the terrible quality of coloring book paper in most books out there, this test one included, the pencils performed amazingly well. Everything was done with only the colored pencils, except for the white spots on the feathers, which are white gel pen. I did test the use of three blending pencils (prisma, lyra and polycolor) as well as colorless blender alcohol marker - all worked very well with these pencils. On quality artist paper, these pencils are exquisite. I just swatch tested them, but performance was so good, I will be using these for sketching and artwork that is not going to be left out in the light. I doubt they are very lightfast, but that doesn't matter if you are doing art in sketch books or placing your finished pieces into a storage portfolio. Bottom line- the full cost without discount or sale is a little steep, but if you can snatch them up on sale, go for it. They are very nice and I ordered several sets at different times as sales came up since I do like them that much.

Very happy with the pencils. Very vibrant and somewhat opaque. Nice and smooth with out wax buildup. No one likes wax bloom in their coloring. The only thing I don’t like about them is the container. Incredibly hard to open and close.

These feel great to use, extremely close to Prismacolor pencils, very creamy, blends easily, vibrant colors. Beautiful color selection, I had a smile on my face while swatching. I almost took a star off because of the gold lettering, I had to use a headlamp magnifier to read the color names. I wish manufacturers would stop this practice, yes the gold looks pretty, but we like to be able to read the information on the pencil most of all. But, the quality of the pencils made me still give 5 stars. There is a rating system for lightfastness, but they don't state what system is used, so if that's important to you, be aware. They are rated up to 5 stars, and none of the colors are below a 3, even the pinks. Hmmmm. K They sharpen easily in an electric sharpener, no splintering or point breakage. These pencils are a joy to use. The tin case is sturdy enough, the inner trays are flimsy. I find it easier to use when my pencils are in a case, more convenient. I hope they come out with bigger sets in a pencil case, not a tin, I would buy them immediately. I highly recommend trying these. Worth every penny! Been using these pencils for a couple of weeks now, love them more every day, hardly use my Prismas unless I need a certain color. I see that they went down a little in the price, plus a coupon, so I'm ordering another set today to make sure have enough. I wish they would come out with a bigger set, or have the option of no tin, I always use a pencil case. They must have figured out the Prisma formula, I can't get over how these seem identical. So creamy and easy to blend! Again, I highly recommend!

I’m a colored pencil artist and have tried every budget pencil that you can imagine in the last 20 years. I have my favorite professional brand of pencils (FC Polychromos) but tend to “save” them for my important work. For every day art, that I’m not selling, I use budget pencils. I have favorites in wax based and oil based pencils, but up until now, I really hadn’t found a set of budget pencils that really made my heart sing. That is, until the Woomer brand was introduced. I think I have gone through 3or 4 boxes of 72 pencils - that alone says it all! My only complaint is that there are only 72 colors. Well, I’ve ordered the new colors and can hardly wait until they arrive! If you haven’t tried the Woomer brand yet, you are in for a wonderful treat! These pencils are the creamiest, budget pencils on the planet. They are pigment rich; and the colors are intense. Whether you are a colorist or a serious artist, you won’t regret purchasing these pencils. Within a few strokes of these wonderful pencils, you will quickly wonder how you ever lived without them! lol. I adore these pencils. Until the new colors were released, my only complaint was I wanted more colors. I guess I’ll have to think of something else to complain about; lol. Yes these pencils are that wonderful! Y’all have a blessed and very colorful day!

I'm not an artist, but I am serious about coloring. I've bought many brands of pencils, from the expensive brands to the most frugal bargain brands. These pencils in my opinion are easier to work with than the expensive brands. They are buttery soft, layer well, and the color choices are great too. I finally found a pencil that has quality and I don't have buyers guilt. They hold a point well and sharpen without breaking . I can't say enough about these amazing pencils. Woomers are the best pencil I've used in the 15 years I've colored. I think even an artist would love them. ❤️ If you're a pencil junkie, and you're considering Woomers, buy them. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

I was SO pleasantly surprised with these. Such good value for money. They feel nice, they work nice, they don't feel or look cheap. At all. They feel like a high-quality pencil in your hand. They work really well. I like them waaay better than the arrtx (I didn't like them). I think they're even better than Shpirrer Farben pencils.( Better than Arteza and Castle Arts, hands down.) I ENJOYED swatching these. And I paid 23 dollars for them! Most importantly, to me, they did a FABULOUS job of color selecting for a 72 set!! One of the best, if not THE best, I've seen. I love that there are NO metallics, and that they instead give us actual colors to use, i love that there aren't 15 yellows (or grays) in a 72 set. They managed to achieve such quality(even in the details) at such a more-than-reasonable price. I've had no breakages, and they keep their point much better than prismacolors. I love them. And I would happily buy these 72 AGAIN if they were to come out with a 120 count set. Also, they have color names and numbers. And the colors are super-vibrant/saturated! So glad I bought them.

Great on Shading & blending. Pencils are a little waxy, have to sharpen more often so they will not last as long as Prismacolor Pencils. Price was good though compared with to other brands.

The pencils color so soft creamy easy to color and mix shades

De très bons crayons très très crémeux.

Lápis excelentes , macios e bons para se mesclar . Amei esses lápis .

These pencils are a dream to use with easy lay down, layering is very easy and the pigmentation is great. Only con is the metallic lettering on the pencil barrel which on some is starting to rub off. Woomer need to address that issue. Otherwise very happy with them.

Super crayons de coloriage. Facile pour dégrader et estomper.
