Studio Series Deluxe Colored Pencil Set (Set of 50)

I got a set a few years ago and loved them, you don't have to worry about the lead breaking, they give out great color they come in a tin box, I Love them

This is the third time I am buying Studio Series colored pencils. Originally, I'd gotten a set of 30 as a gift and I wore them to nubs from using them so much. So I bought another set of 30 to replace those. Then I saw this set of 50 tin and I decided to buy it to get more shades. I love them!For one thing, the new set features even softer leads that blend rather well with a prisma blender, however, like their less waxy predecessors, they aren't as waxy or soft as Prisma which I find too soft very often. I think Studio Series is a nice middle ground between super wxy and super chalky (like bargain brands), The colors are vibrant and the pencils last a while, though if you color everyday with the set as I do, you will wear your favorite colors before long. They are a more substantial pencil than the Crayolas and are best sharpened with the Studio Series sharpener also on amazon, which has a narrow and wide point sharpener option. I have not had any broken leads with the new set when I use the wide sharpener for colored pencils. These are very reasonably priced and if they offered a 100 box, like Crayola does, I'd absolutely buy it.The pencils lay in plastic formed grooves so you can keep them organized, just as you can with the set of 30. This set has a tin for storage and 50 pencils. Their set of 30 has a plastic carrier and comes with a metal single sharpener and a white eraser. The leads on the set of 30 I last bought in 2018 were not as waxy as this new set, but still applied color very well. I will continue to buy Studio Series pencils for the majority of my coloring work. I really prefer them for many projects.

Good colored pencils! Last a long time! Except the black one (always)

One of my first pencil sets and was highly recommended by resident expert- my daughter. I was not disappointed and indeed still enjoy them. A great selection of colors to use and I now blend it with other sets I have added to it. Pictures come out beautiful when I don't make mistakes. :D

These pencils are soft and gives my pictures a soft and balanced look. Blending is even and easy to achieve the look I like. No problem when I sharpen them, I use Afmat sharpener which I also purchased from Amazon awhile ago..these are by far my favorite colored pencils...

Love love love studio series…by far my favorite brand for colored pencils!

These pencils are awesome. They are my absolute favorite.

The set comes with a great variety of subtle shade differences in color, but there are a number of issues that should be corrected. First, the pencils are not numbered so there is no easy way to find the shade you have used before, as the differences are very subtle. Second, the set of 50 pencils came with only 49 pencils and without numbers there is no way to know what color is missing. Third, the only color coding for the set is painted on the metal box that the set comes in and the painted colors are not a true representation of the actual colors of the pencil. Fourth, the non-point ends of the pencils are painted also and the color or the paint does not match the color of the pencil. Lastly, the pencil colors are not arrayed by any logical color order to help determine the actual spectrum. So, overall, the set is extremely frustrating.

Bottom line first… these are great to add to collection for additional colors!This is a fun kit with some unique colors and a nice cottage core feel to them. But that’s it.I gave them full stars because they fill all my requirements! Lay down well, blend well, offer me new colors, sharpen without breaking and great packaging! However they are not high end artist. These are excellent gifting or pleasure art or for just daily fun! Grabbed them on sale and no regrets as a pencil lover!Happy coloring!

excelente presentación y calidad de los colores

After trying ( without success) to get the right tools for the job , I tried these pencils ( I bought a smaller pack first!) and these are the best I've ever had!Smooth, deeply coloured, capable of shading to a high degree, and lots of colours to choose from .Of course I would buy them again! Buying more together makes more sense. Don't buy anything else. These would suffice your needs wether you're just a hobby colouring in sort of person or a student on a mission or even a professional artist, you would have to go a long way, and spend even more money finding anything that comes close to these.

Very rich colours. Good products. lead breaks easy while sharpening. Also goes down really quickly on usage.

Beautiful pencils, good quality and a perfect gift
