After two years of using colored pencils, I switched toThe Irojiten Vivid colored Pencil Set because of my success with your other TOMBOW products.This set of pencils are the very best I have tried and used -Thank you so much for such a quality product. I will be ordering the rest of your pencils soon. They are such a creamy product and blend nicely on many different papers!Glenda
Fantastic grouping of colors for bolder, brighter drawings. These pencils are wonderful to use and the colors are intense, bright and lay down on paper extremely well. I prefer pencils that hold a very sharp point when they are sharpened, and won't break under pressure. I'm pretty hard on my pencils, and have a heavy hand, and I was pleasantly surprised how strong the lead was, and how sharp the tips remained. They never broke in my electric pencil sharpener, and always sharpened to a very fine point. The round shape and smooth enamel outer finish sits nicely in your hand and is very comfortable to hold. The hand sharpener is a very nice addition and the sand eraser came in very useful. I liked how the eraser worked so much that it replace the eraser I've been using for years, which wasn't as effective. I highly recommend this set!
Vivid is an understatement, these pencils are BRIGHT. They're very smooth, and sturdier than Prismacolor. The pinks are very similar in color but with different tones, so if you like neon pink, you're set. I'm fond of the orange and green. It's like they GLOW.
The name VIVID is perfect for this set. Wow...the colours really pop! I am only familiar with my kids color pencils from school and these in comparison are simply amazing. That beautiful white enamel exterior and the hardness of the wood interior lets me colour forever without wearing or breakage. Love them!
A couple of weeks ago, I received the Colored Pencils Tranquil Set. It comes with 12 colored pencils, a sharpener, and sand eraser. Each of the pencils come unsharpened and the sharpener sharpens them perfectly, crisp, and clean. The eraser is perfect for taking care of those little "oops" or to lighten the coloring if you change your mind. You can also color a solid image and then use the eraser to make designs into your solid coloring. I like to use Gamsol to blend and smooth out the color even more. I highly recommend giving these colored pencils a try.
