Superb performance for the £, unbeatable value
I tested out all the watercolour pencil ranges in WH Smith below £20 and this little box beats them for colour brightness and application. I am an artist and wanted to start my mother off on adult colouring book as she's just gone into a home so it was important that they were not a problem to use, had bright colour and were not difficult to apply. She has been doing her 'painting' nearly every day and finds them a joy to use. At 90 she is now loving her daily art and is running out of the yellows. I want to upgrade her to better quality pencils now but these are so good I wish they did a bigger colour range.

Good quality and variety
I already have several watercolour pencils but since I mostly sketch outdoor scenes I'm always looking for new shades of green and brown, and there are a pleasing variety of colours in this pack, including a blue-grey which is excellent for shadows. The pencils make good solid marks with both the points and the sides, and blend well with the addition of some water. Applying the pencil to wet paper produces a pleasingly intense colour. I've yet to find a set of watercolour pencils with a convincing olive green, which would have earned this a fifth star, but I'd definitely recommend them.

Suprised!
Impulse bought these as half price and was planning on some faber castells in a few months so gave the medium a try before splashing out.
They look like cheap pencils when taken out the packet. Didnt expect polychromos standard. I did expect the pencil lines to stay behind on the paper when made wet with a brush. Did not happen. No lines. Im suprised to be fair. The colour doesnt seem very vibrant when applying pencil first then water. Im a newbie so maybe doing something wrong (paper maybe?) because when i take the colour directly from the pencil with the brush the colour is vivid. Gonna stick with these till they are stumps i think. 6 year old daughter loves em too.

Lovely
The colours are vibrant and they don’t wear down too quickly. They blend with water beautifully. I will definitely buy more of these to use in my journaling bible.

Pleasantly surprised
Very good quality for a decent price. Unlike other cheap watercolour pencils, these have enough pigment to actually create a watercolour effect. I am very happy because I am experimenting with different media to see what I like best and this product allows just that without having to spend a fortune.

Good quality pencils!
For the price, the pencils are actually very pigmented and look very good on a page. Would 100% recommend for anyone who is new to watercolours and just wants to try them out.
