- Are these good for adult coloring books?
- They work for light coloring, but the cores are firm and lay down less pigment than soft artist pencils. For detailed shading and blending, a larger artist-grade set is a better fit.
- Is the sharpener in the lid easy to use?
- The sharpener sits on top of the lid, so you twist a pencil into it while the tube stays closed. It is convenient, but shavings collect in the lid and need emptying.
- How many colors are in the set?
- Twelve: black, blue, brown, dark green, light blue, light green, maroon, orange, pink, purple, red and yellow.
- Are these pencils suitable for young children?
- They are a reasonable starter set for kids old enough to color carefully. The tube keeps them contained, and the lid sharpener means no separate sharpener to lose.
- Do they blend well?
- Only lightly. The firm cores layer somewhat but do not blend like soft artist pencils, so smooth gradients take more effort.
- What is included besides the pencils?
- The twelve colored pencils, a storage tube and a sharpener built into the lid.
- Where is the Blackwood 12-Piece Colored Pencil Set In Tube cheapest?
