## Description

From the manufacturer REAL CASTLE; REAL ARTIST Mighty Bamburgh Castle in Northumberland, England, goes back to the 6th century AD and now houses the gallery where our resident artist Peter Phillips exhibits. A painter of global repute, he and his team of artists specify our art supplies, create our Guides and Tutorials, produce our videos and provide practical advice and know-how born of a lifelong love of art. RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT ACROSS OUR RANGE You’ll get more out of everything because we put more into everything. In our dedicated studios our artistic and technical staff test competitive brands, and where they fall short, we develop better materials – in the formulation and selection of pigments; the touch, feel and comfort in use; tools, packaging and presentation that look and work better. CASTLE WORLDWIDE COMMUNITY Join our loyal and ever-growing global family of Castle Artists who stay in regular touch with each other and ourselves through emails, social media, our savvy Customer Services team and the Castle Club - sharing experiences, tips and creative inspiration by exhibiting their art on our website Gallery. 72 PIECE COLORED PENCIL TIN 72 professional artist’s grade, soft touch, coloured break-resistant pencils - curated and developed by our in-house studio artists. The rich, creamy, velvety leads are highly pigmented and layer, blend, detail and burnish to perfection. They are organised into ‘families’ of colour, named, numbered & coded for instant recognition and are collated into three ‘easy-lift’ trays. PLUS 5-Part Tutorial included. STRONG PRESENTATION TIN A Castle Arts high grade tin box is a gift to treasure and a pleasure to use. Open the 3-hinged lid bearing a striking Unicorn illustration and reveal the pencils set out on trays, named and numbered for easy selection. 72 VIBRANT COLORS Artist grade, break-defying leads in an enticing range of intense pigments encased in soft-touch basswood barrel for clean, easy-to-hold control, the pencils are super-sharpenable and hold their point for detailed coloring. BEAUTIFULLY BLENDABLE Purest quality wax cores with creamy lay down, velvety smooth application and controlled layering enable you to achieve that soft, saturated, natural look where colors merge from one shade to another and edges run from hard to soft. MASTERSTROKES Put your colored pencils through their paces by varying pressure to control density and deploy techniques like hatching, cross-hatching, contouring and stippling – or put on the pressure to achieve that rich, burnished sheen.

Review: Lovely set..ultra creamy..it does what it says on the tin! - Lovely to work with. "Buildable" colours so darker/lighter of the same shade. Creamy as suggested in the name. Am finding it difficult to find a nice sharpener that doesn't rip the wood or eat too much of the pencil. Pleased overall. Especially as I purchased in the sale. I have lots of castle art products. They're not the cheapest but I think you get what you pay for. The original website of Castle also does bundles..with extra discounts. Comes in a nice tin so easy to keep tidy and to hand. Plastic inserts is the only thing that lets it down..but maybe that's just me
Review: Highly recommend - Highly recommend.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are they oil based or wax based? And are they as good quality as prismacolors**
A: These are superior to the current Prismacolors. They are vibrant, don’t have lead breakage issues, color is true without bonder causing discoloration that occurs with prismas, blends extremely well, and don’t have the issue of constant wax bloom also typical with the current Prismas. It’s the original Bristol brand Prismas that made Prismas the go to pencil. They no longer have the same quality with the current manufacturer but people still buy them only due to outdated recommendations for a product that no longer has the same quality and performance.

**Q: Do these pencils lay as smooth as prismacolor? And how vibrant compared to prismacolor? Are they great on toned or black paper?**
A: These pencils are great product for the money. They lay down as smooth as the prismacolor, vibrant colors. I'm very happy with him.

**Q: do these pencils have toxic lead in them?**
A: The lead in pencils was found in the "paint" not the "lead" or "core" of the pencils. Most, of not all, U.S. manufacturers avoid using paint containing lead. I don't think the same can be said of China.
If someone wanted to answer this , I believe Homedepot offers a free "lead testing" kit that can be used to test the paint of these pencils.

**Q: is the color name printed on pencil?**
A: I just recently purchased my second set of these, and the new set has numbers printed on the pencils.

Highly recommend.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Muy bien.
*by P***F on 12 October 2018*

Son unos lápices de gran calidad a un precio muy bueno. Son bastante blandos pero no demasiado. Consiguen una saturación cromática bastante rápida si presionas un poco más. La paleta de color está peor estructurada en la zona de los matices azules y verdes, abunda en colores oscuros muy próximos en tono (claro-oscuro) y se echan en falta más tonos medios y claros. El color de testigo de la base se corresponde mal con el color propio de la barra y vendría bien que estuviesen al menos numerados para poder relacionarlos con la carta guía que se puede hacer uno mismo (adjunto la que hice yo). La caja metálica es negro mate al igual que los lápices pero debería tener un poco más de anchura para disponer unas ranuras que permitan acomodar bien los lápices y que no se monten entre sí como ocurre. Los lápices tienen un acabado muy bueno y un tacto muy agradable, la madera que usan, ignoro cual, es de una fibra fina y compacta y permite un cono de afilado muy liso, sin astillado. La barra me responde muy bien al afilador, no se me ha roto ninguna y los he afilado todos dos o tres veces ya. Añado una copia/versión de este Van Gogh. Los colores cálidos rojo-amarillos se consiguen fácil y rápido, son más problemáticos los tonos azul pálido de las paredes porque el azul más claro disponible es todavía oscuro y hay que trabajar más fusionando con blanco insistentemente. Los azules intensos de las puertas sin embargo se consiguen fácilmente.
