top notch pencils
i really like the holbein pencils but they are not perfect. they are almost too soft for me and i seem to have trouble blending with them. but they do lay down nice and retain their color on a coloring book page.

Wonderful!!
I have Prismacolor which are very soft and Polychromos which are a little harder. In my opinion these seem to fall inbetween the two. I’m absolutely loving using them. And am also having fun with the blending pen which I purchased separately.
