Amazing product 👍

Love inktense pencils. I had a smaller set and treated myself to a bigger ton as wanted more colours. Great fun to use.

I love these oh so much. Do not confuse these with watercolour pencils. They are different. They are more like paint or ink than pencils. Once they're dry, they are permanent and no amount of water will activate and move the colour around (speaking for paper artwork, not other things like fabrics that might go in the washing machine). This is great because it means you can go over and add finer details with a different shade or colour without those details blending in to the layers below, like it would with watercolour pencils. Furthermore, because they are so intense in colour, you don't need to add nearly so much colour before activating with water like you would with watercolour pencils to get a lovely intense and vibrant look. But they are versatile enough to allow you to get soft looks too - just use less colour to the page before adding water or just use your brush to pick up colour directly from the pencil and then applying the colour to the page that way. Another option is to apply colour to only part of where you want to the colour to go and use the water to move the colour around, thus creating some lovely gradients of dark/intense to light/pale. So many techniques can be used that I won't even go into them all. The only criticism I have is that the colours on the end of the pencil barrel don't really reflect the colour of the actual ink. That's easily remedied just by creating a colour swatch for yourself and using that to determine your colour scheme rather than relying on the pencil to tell you the colour. That's such a minor issue, though. I so wish I had just jumped in and purchased the full 72 set instead of just the 36 set. I did not anticipate loving these as much as I do. I would dearly love it if Derwent did a secondary 36 set with the rest of the colours so that I didn't have to double up on half of my colours or resort to buying them open stock. But open stock is an option and thus, the smaller sets are worth buying if you want to spend less just to try out a selection of the colours. The packaging for this was well thought out. Not only was the tin sealed with plastic and some easy to peel stickers on either end of the tin, but inside had a seperate plastic covering over the pencil tray and strips of cardboard over the pencils to hold the pencils in place on the tray, thus not allowing the pencils to move around during transit. Well thought out and such a nice touch. One other thing to note: If you're a serious artist and intend to hang or sell your paintings or other artistic creations, be aware that although they're permanent, not all the colours are lightfast. You may wish to look into which colours are and consider if you're going to need to use some sort of UV fixitive to help protect your work.

Derwent Inktense Water-Soluble Pencils are undoubtedly a high-quality product, although they come with a slightly higher price tag. One disappointment was the misleading presentation—advertising a set of 24 pencils, yet only receiving 12. Initially, I felt cheated by the discrepancy and considered returning them. However, upon trying them, I was truly impressed. These pencils are exceptionally pigmented and make layering a breeze. Once dry, the colours become permanent, which is a unique and remarkable feature. Their vibrant quality and ease of use are unparalleled, and I'm not aware of any comparable alternatives. Despite the initial frustration, this product won me over and earned my appreciation.

These are wonderful for use with or without water, blend smoothly, I will definitely buy these again

These pencils were recommended to me by a fellow artist. I think they are great quality

Brought the 48 Derwent Fine Art Pencils a few years ago & really liked them, but now as I've moved towards watercoloring, wanted a good set. Beautiful colours, add water & they intensivy, as it says on the tin. On the 3rd layer the darker colours are very similar & feel they could of had more variety in the purple's, pinks, & reds. ordered them & was told they would take 3days to reach me, but to my absolute delight they arrived the next day! Spent a delightful couple of hours making a swatch of all the colours. The laydown is soft & creamy & with water added even more vibrant, also the light laydown colours appear quickly. Know I will have many happy hours using these.

色鉛筆画に目覚めた勢いで、古今東西の有名どころに一揃い手を出したうちの一つです。 ３万前後というお値段にかなり悩みましたが、どうせ買うならと100色。圧巻の色揃いに持っているだけで満足しそうです。様子見で最初は中途半端な色数を買ってもどうせ買い直すだろうな…と、自分の性格を理解した上で最初から一番色数が多いセットにしました。結果、正解でした。 このほかポリクロモスやパブロやルミナンスやと、10年に一度の大大浪費をしましたので、しばらくは大人しく節約に励みたいと思います（切実） そんなにまだ上手でもないんですが、せっかく買ったのでどんどん使っていこうと思います。というやる気は出ますね、さすがに。

Niet de gewoonlijke waterverf potloden maar werken net zo goed of veel beter. Kan even wennen zijn aan de rijkheid van pigment.

Beautiful pencils at the cheapest price I have seen. Like many other people I have a set of 72 pencils. The 100 set were incredibly expensive online. I also saw a couple of places online where they have the 28 pencils that have been included in the 100 set. (They were selling the 28 pencils at A$5 per pencil plus postage... so around $150). I will attach a picture of my colour swatch for the extra 28 pencils which come in this 100 set. If you are interested Amazon have this 100 set at a fantastic price with their current Prime Day sales for Prime members.

Soms valt alles precies op zijn plek. Je bestelt iets moois, iets waar je je al even op verheugt, en dan gebeurt er van alles in de wereld waardoor je denkt: dit wordt ’m niet vandaag. Zo’n dag was het: dikke sneeuwval, gladde wegen, bussen en treinen die massaal uitvielen. De wereld stond stil. Behalve één iemand. Op de afgesproken tijd stond DHL gewoon voor de deur, alsof het de normaalste zaak van de wereld was. Geen vertraging, geen gedoe, alleen een vriendelijke bezorger met een pakketje dat voelde als een klein lichtpuntje in een witte, stille wereld. Dat verdient echt een compliment. 🎨 En dan de inhoud: Derwent Inktense aquarelpotloden De Inktense‑lijn van Derwent is precies wat de naam belooft: intens. De kleuren knallen van het papier, zelfs voordat je er water bij gebruikt. Zodra je dat wél doet, gebeurt er iets magisch: de pigmenten lossen op tot een diepe, inktachtige vloeibaarheid die je werk een bijna professionele uitstraling geeft. • Kleuren: rijk, verzadigd en verrassend helder • Gebruik: droog al prachtig, nat echt spectaculair • Eigenschap: eenmaal droog watervast, waardoor je in lagen kunt werken zonder modderige mengsels • Geschikt voor: illustraties, mixed media, schetsboeken, kaarten, experimenten – eigenlijk alles waar je creativiteit zin in heeft Het voelt alsof je met één potlood zowel kunt tekenen als schilderen, zonder dat je hoeft te kiezen. ❄️ De combinatie van kunst en bezorghelden Dat deze potloden überhaupt op tijd binnenkwamen, maakt de ervaring alleen maar beter. Terwijl het openbaar vervoer platlag, kwam DHL gewoon door de sneeuw geploegd om een set potloden te bezorgen die je meteen zin geven om te creëren. Dat is service die je mag benoemen.
