Derwent Chromaflow Pencils, Set of 150 in Tin, 3.5mm Round Core, Premium Core Strength, Blendable with Smooth Texture, Ideal for Drawing, Colouring & Layering, Professional Quality, 2306263

Love the output of the pencils. Vibrant and smooth.

The pencils are blendable and vibrant and easy to use even though thinner than usual Derwent artist grade pencils. A 24 pencil set is sufficient though ideally the strawberry shade should have been a true to name shade (pink toned red) instead of a brown tone red as that is missing in the set. Also close and easily achievable shades like lilac and violet, light blue and blue, strawberry and raisin could have been better varied by having shades like Mars violet, Ultramarine, a cool toned Red. Also, it's essential to have information on lightfastness as this is being marketed as professional pencils. Nevertheless, it's still a very good set. Now on the retailer and delivery. The box was completely dented and one nib was broken. I just feviquicked it to avoid going through the hassle of changing but this retailer will just not bubble wrap these delicate art materials though this is not the first time they have sent dented boxes and damaged products. It's extremely frustrating to see them waste these expensive products by not wrapping with either bubble wrap or extra cardboard, leading to damage that most consumers won't accept.

Pencil r little small bt Very good quality product love it

I am just a notch above a beginner and wanted something that was easy to use and produced great results for me. I ordered a 24 pencil set of Derwent Chromaflow and I can say that these pencils are excellent - smooth layover, bright colours and very easy to blend. Look no further!

Fine Colour pencil but lagging in Colour depth .e. low Vibrant and Rich Colors. This may be due to low concentration of pigment. The blending capability is good and does not break easily having fine wood casings. The pencils may be cosidered as medium hard and can retain sharpness well. Good for Drawing but may not be the best for colouring. Also pretty paper sensitive and can work best only on top quality papers.

Derwent Chromaflow are excellent pencils which are waxed based and so highly suited for blending. However seller has sent the box without the metal cover lid – this is not the first time I have had the same issue. These pencils are an expensive set from a reputed company, Derwent, and they are intended to arrive complete with metal box to keep pencils organised (box has a back and front cover as per picture) However sellers are not sending the box of pencils as intended by manufacturer Derwent.... why? I don't know.... but for sure the fault does not lie with Derwent but with the seller.... Without the cover, the pencils cannot be kept in the box unless always sitting on a desk.... no taking your pencils for outdorr sketching or on a travel or to college ....unless you purchase a pencil case to keep them in! Sellers pls don't sell part-product. Unfortunately, I was not aware of the missing cover until after the return window had closed (I was away) ...only 6 days return window, so I am left with a useless box, but with great pencils - So this low star rating is not due to the pencil quality but due to seller fault

Very good alternative to prismacolor.. really smooth and gives vibrant finish.. love it

Pros - firm grip , beautiful selection of colours , smooth and soft , layerdown easily ,eraseble ,bright and blends well Cons - lead is not that strong, White colour is not that good for blending but you will still get Good results All over it's a really beautiful product and you can purchase it for professional use or as a beginner

I like the laydown of Chromaflow..smooth, very lightweight pencils, vibrant colors. I’m loving this!

Absolutely in love with these professional grade coloring pencils. Nice and creamy, ideal for blending and layering alike.

I really enjoyed using these pencils! They have a really smooth and creamy consistency, and the colours are beautiful and bright. I bought the 20, and this feels like a good range of colours to be able to complete image. The only thing I couldn’t do with them was a skin tone. My sample image is all the Chrimaflows, except for her skin and lips (and the painted background effect of course). I liked the way they blended, and would buy more colours if they released more in the range! For a more budget art pencil, I think the Chromaflows are really nice, and would recommend them.
