160 (Genummerde) Kleurpotloden-set - Kleurpotloden voor kunstenaars met etui - Doos met professioneel kleurpotlood, ideaal voor volwassenen en Kinderen, Mandala's, kleurpotlood, schoolbenodigdheden

Fantastic quality for its price.

Ik zocht nog een leuke set voor erbij, en merk dat ik deze potloden er heel vaak bij pak. Ik hoef deze potloden bijna niet te slijpen , de punt blijft heel lang scherp, de kleuren komen er makkelijk uit , ik hoef niet hard te drukken. De kleuren van de punt komt goed overeen met de omslag. Lagen gaan ook goed. Enige minpunt is dat er geen kleuren swatch kaart bij zit, voor de prijs zeker de moeite waard

Heel mooie potloden,heel veel verschillende tinten en mooie kwaliteit.Heel erg blij mee

Prima kleurpotloden voor een prima prijs. Zeker voor een beginnende kleurder zijn het prima potloden.

Toppie goed spul

Sehr gute Stifte ... tolle Farben ... fantastischer Preis

Fina färger mycket att välja på

Large selection of colours. Seem to be good quality.

Just as good as Faber-castell but way cheaper to buy! Only complaint is you can't buy a single replacement pencil of just 1 color.First off from my experience those people who stated to me that they were scratchy were far off. They may have gotten sets that were manufacturered from a older process or maybe they changed their formula since they got their sets but the set I have is a dream to draw with. Colors are vibrant and smooth to use. I can get solid tones easily with just a bit of pressure and if you want to blend it and eliminate any of the white page to be seen just a touch of gamsol will make that possible with no layering needed.As for the reports of people saying they could not see any difference between colors that is not the fault of the pencils either. The ZENACOLOR pencils, I actually find are very awesome with the color selection they provide in the 160 color selection. I have trained for many years in color and actually have Masters Degree in Illustration, I Minored in Photography, I also have a License in Cosmetology. I also, was a Makeup Artist for many years for Photographers and Movies. I studied color for decades. I use something most people don't know about and don't have; it's called the Munsell Color System, Pantone actually base their color system off of it. Most people have at least heard of Pantone. If you want to study anything about Munsell, here is the link to the text book for serious people Back to my point. The colors in Zenacolor have slight variants in hues that someone without a trained eye might not notice, or if you are not in proper lighting you might not be able to see. If you have proper lighting and still cannot see the differences you might need to familiarize yourself with the values, hues, and families in terms in colors a bit more; because these pencils really are filled with them. The shades are so slightly different but it is so useful to have them I can't even describe how valuable it is. From the 36 types of green to the 20 blues . It's just great. The cooler or warmer tones in each color are great.The things that will confuse people are common problems I experience with even prismacolor pencils. The names and numbers of the pencils. They are numbered from 1-160. My explanation for the numbers is simple. They are sold in different amounts. So when you buy a smaller pack you get more basic colors and so they aren't really numbered in an order that goes from lightest red to darkest red then to the next color that would blend to like on a color wheel kind of thing. So what I ended up doing was sorting it out for myself that was in the end. I will include my sorting both numbers and photos at the end, for those of you who would appreciate that. As for the names of the pencils... Well there's no explanation for those. For instance, there is one pencil that is called Dark Slate Gray #022 that you would expect to be a dark neutral gray, but it draws closer to a blue jean blue; also the barrel of the pencil is a dark hunter green. Which brings me to the one big problem and the first reason why I made a Swatch chart (the second reason was to order them) so the paint color on the outside of the pencils does NOT match the color of the pencils drawing color. All that being said NONE of those reason are enough for me to not use these pencils.As far as the box goes it's a cardboard box with a magnetic closure. If you don't want to spend the money to get a pencil case that's on you, but with the thin plastic trays the pencils roll around and I personally hate dealing with trays and the chance of a box opening so I got a case for them.All around using the pencils just while swatching, I found them nice to work with, because they are nice in the hand, they draw forever, and you don't need to sharpen often, they just cover so much paper and keep going. They are smooth on paper, blend well with gamsol (I don't use white to blend so I didn't bother to try I prefer to use a different pencil shade).Long story short, for prime customers $34.97 Zenacolor 160 colored pencils are a decent buy for a oil based colored pencil.I got them to have them for something that is cheaper than Faber-Castell. I needed something that didn't blend out and be so soft when sharpened like Prismacolors do. I need something that is more stiff on the tip and dry and can give color for fine lines in portraiture.Please give them a try for yourself and let me know how they are for you!
