Derwent Charcoal Pencils, Pack, 4 Count (39000)

I dont usually care for charcoal pencils, I dont care for the messy fallout, I dislike the way they grab or drag on paper, the squeaky noise they make annoys, me but Derwent's are completely the opposite & a joy to use. Derwent charcoal pencils are much smoother on paper than other charcoal pencils I have used. Besides smoothness they have a rich darkness & less fallout than the others & blend and smudge nicely. I'm actually enjoying using these & am learning all sorts of lovely new drawing techniques now.

good product.

These pencils perform as advertised. Great quality. Recommend.

Usually I use a lot of Generals charcoal but these are great to change it up once in a while. The medium and soft pencils are a bit choppy and as for the soft pencil not being able to smear into a shadow like how i need it to is a bit frustrating but I learned with this set, especially the soft pencil that a rag or sponge came in handy. Don't get me wrong. The tones and texture of these pencils could be better than generals but as far as shading goes, I prefer overall coverage that the soft pencil is made for in my opinion. Will definitely be buying more when I run out. :)

They are pretty nice charcoal pencils and have worked extremely well for drawing, but they are very difficult to sharpen. The tips have crumbled repeatedly even with several different kinds of pencil sharpeners. They also don’t coat the paper very smoothly, meaning that you have to repeatedly go over an area to make it not grainy. Other than that they are great pencils and have worked quite nicely.

These charcoal pencils do not disappoint. Lovely lay down and a beautiful black color. I enjoy the feel in my hand. No hesitation to buying them again.

NICE! SMOOTH! EASY TO USE!! good for beginners. Ive never realized how much easier charcoal is to blend and correct compared to other mediums. try it out :-) it's a super good price too; when I bought ONE pencil at micheal's it was 2$ so this is really great. There is 2 sets of dark, medium, and light and one white

The soft one is too soft and it breaks easily. They're still decent.

Fantastic set of charcoal pencils, they blend really smoothly,

Kömür uçları sürekli kırılıyor,asla sivriltip çizim yapamıyorsunuz sadece kaba çizimler için uygun

I'm a beginner artist trying all sorts of tools but I love charcoal most of all.

See...ignore the other reviews,these are amazing and they aren’t rough nor scratchy they are solid pure charcoal better quality than generals.if you know what polychromos coloured pencils are,they are similar in the sense that prismacolor premier coloured pencils are amazing but the build quality is bad,and polychromos are better made and have better quality leads but a bit hard to use compared to prismacolors similarly generals can be compared to prismacolors and derwents as polychromos.

Very good product. Fast delivery 😊😊
