Col-Erase Erasable Colored Pencil, 12-Count, Blue (20044)

These where recommended to me by a friend, and now they're all I use when sketching and or drawing. I do love this brand and have a wide range of their product, but this one in particular I find great for my line work prior to inking :)

I use these Col-erase Prismacolor pencils to mark books I read plus significant words in my Bible. As such they need to be erasable in case I make a mistake. I chose this brand since the lead is fairly soft and is very erasable. It is ideal to mark my Bible which is printed on onion skin thin paper. It does not rip the very thin paper. Another brand I ordered just to try out is a lighter blue and requires a lot of pressure to make a mark. The lead is too hard. The current Col-erase Prismacolor blue 20044 pencils are made in China; they have not completely replicated the formula of the original ones made in the USA. I have one of those, they have softer leads, and are ideal for making lines and shadings in books. This Chinese made version is a dark blue just like the original ones and stand out on the printed page, yet lets one read the black text underneath the shading. In any case, the Chinese copies are the best available at this time. The erasers work well also. Oh yes, you really get a box of 12 good erasable blue pencils.

Dies ist der klassische Blaustift, der von Disney und anderen Studios für die Vorzeichnungen benutzt wurde. Kein blauer Buntstift, ein blauer Bleistift, der Unterschied liegt in der präziseren Linie. Mit Einschränkungen ist der Stift radierbar, aber eigentlich ist der Sinn der Sache, eine finale Linie einfach über die Vorzeichnung zu legen. Oder man macht es wie der großartige Charles Wissig (sketchesinblue.com), der ausschließlich mit dem Col-Erase 20044 zeichnet. Kein Stift zeichnet von alleine, aber dieser hilft sehr :D Ich habe schon Dutzende davon und kaufe auf Vorrat. Jederzeit wieder!

finora ho preso 3 confezioni di blu e 1 confezione di rosso. mi sono trovata davvero molto bene. dure al punto giusto e si cancellano meglio rispetto alle semplici matite colorate. vorrei comprarne ancora di blu, ma non sono disponibili. spero possano tornare presto, farò sicuramente scorta.

This is a pretty great price for 12 col-erase pencils, and this blue color is great for sketching with. Sometimes I find the non-photo blue can't make a visible mark on certain papers, but this one is dark enough that I can always see it - however you can still draw lightly if you want a subtle line.
