Faber-Castell Castle 111260 Colouring Pencils Set, 60 Pieces, Hexagonal, Shatterproof, for Children and Adults

Great product for my 6 year old grandson! He spends hours drawing

I waited awhile to do this review because I wanted to get some use from the pencils. I swatched them on regular printer paper because I made my own swatch sheets awhile ago. I have used these pencils now on coloring books from publishers (I don't buy self-published coloring books here on AMAZON) and I have used them on my own ink line drawings on Strathmore sketch pads with quality paper. The pencils are really nice - they lay down well,, and they blend well. I use them in conjunction with my Staedtler Norris because the Staedtler are useful for tiny detail and skinny areas like script. These Faber-Castell pencils do the details well too if at a nice point. I get a bit lazy about sharpening. The 60 colors have a good variety of shades and a nice complement of greens. I love the greens. Some pencil sets have way too many neutrals and darks. These have just what you need, at least for me. I prefer Staedtler and Faber-Castell rather than the cheap stuff like Kalour etc. which appears to be all from the same factory no matter the weird brand names they give them. Next I would like to get and try the Jolly brand. :) I do recommend these Faber-Castell as a fine brand at a great price. I have lots of Prismacolor premiers too and have to have some pencils that aren't as soft as my Prismas.

It’s good

Son de excelente calidad y muy bonitos

Beautiful Art Colored Pencil Set. Great price for 60 count quality. My first set of Faber Castell pencils so I'll get a chance to use them and compare them with other art brands. I had to find another container for them. The box they shipped in was dented, but no damage to the pencils.

These pencils are great for a budget pencil. The price was good and the array of colors are impressive.there are a few cons to these pencils one they do not have the color name on the barrel of the pencil and two the box they come in is pretty cheap. But other than that I liked them. They are not scratchy they lay down color fairly easy .I use them to color in adult coloring books , I’m not sure you would want to use them to make fine art but for my use they are good

Es fabuloso

It is durable and high quality

Utilizo este set de lápices de colores para mis libros de mandalas y la experiencia es inmejorable; la marca realmente lo dice todo y nunca falla. Tienen una mina muy cremosa que se desliza de maravilla por el papel, permitiendo pintar de forma suave y con una intensidad de color preciosa. La variedad de tonos que incluye el pack es fantástica para hacer sombreados y degradados. Además, la caja es perfecta: tiene un sistema desplegable por dentro que resulta comodísimo para tener todos los lápices organizados, a la vista y listos para llevar a cualquier parte. Una compra de diez para los aficionados al dibujo y al relax. ¡Totalmente recomendados!

Faber castle is one of the best colored pencils in terms of quality, it has a great shades and colors. I love it

This 60 pack has a great variety of colours and well pigmented leads. They go on smoothly and shade nicely. They also sharpen well without constant breakage and can keep a nice point for fine details. These are my favourite budget coloured pencil.

Bardzo dobre kredki. Polecam !!!

Les crayons sont magnifiques. Le rendu est vraiment beau, que ce soit pour du dessin fait main ou du coloriage sur des livres. Je ne regrette pas mon achat. La mine semble solide et je n'ai pas eu besoin de retailler les crayons plusieurs fois pour une session au total de presque 2h de dessin
