Well done showing the colors & blending abilities. I was surprised how well they did. I have already purchased the swatch chart on Your ko-fi site. 🎉🏅 Now I will have one more set to color along with You! Yes Johanna for telling us about these affordable pencils!! & to You Rachel for helpng us use them 🤗😍
Thank you, Rachel! It's nice to see the quality colors that appear to match those of the Polychromos @ an affordable price. I enjoy using the non-round barrel pencils as they don't roll off my belly then onto the floor. Pencils can be difficult to pick up with a grabber, especially if they fall @ the edge of my bed. My caregiver knows that she'll always find a few escapees when she assists me, lol! You are very kind to post so many sheets to download thru your Ko-Fi shop. Hoping you and are enjoying this blessed Advent season. 🙏🌎☮🐾👣🎄🎶🎨❣
Those are from Faber Castell’s red series which is aimed at children. The blue series (Goldfaber) is for hobbyists, and the dark green series caters to artists. The red series is quite good compared to other brands, but certainly not comparable to the Polychromos in terms of pigmentation and lightfastness. I must say you’ve done a fabulous job at working with them.🤩
@ Oh, that’s so interesting! Usually everyone raves about buttery pencils, but harder leads actually makes a lot of sense for detailed work. And if lightfastness is not a concern, these pencils are certainly a very good choice. It’s really lovely of Johanna Basford to promote accessible pencils for her wonderful lineart. And as I said earlier, I admire what you were able to achieve with this range. :)
@@UTleochi I started colouring with hard pencils (back in 2013) so it is what I am used to! I do use softer ones as well, but hard ones just feel more comfortable to me!! Thank you!
LOL! Same as you, when I saw Johanna coloring with these, I went on Amazon and purchased right away. I dont remember if I used them yet. I put in a case with the 36 Posca pencils. Going to get those sets out and use them to complete 2 Advent pages I am finishing
I’m going to colour along with this one as it’s absolutely beautiful, Rachel do you have the FC Black Edition as would love a colour along in Rita Berman book love from Yorkshire xxx

Thank you, I am often losing pencils under my desk as they roll away, fortunately I can crawl under to retrieve them!

Thank you, you can feel they are not so expensive but I like hard pencils so they suited me!

That is a great idea!

Thank you. I do not have the black edition, no!
I want them 😂. Thank you for the brilliant video❤
lol, my pleasure!
Rachel, do you find these pencils produce more crumbs than the Polys?
I have not noticed that, no. It is not something I really look for though!
A friend got me this for Christmas gift I’m joy this
That is good, happy Christmas
Are they worth getting if one has polychromos? Ps just looking for an excuse to buy them 😂. Thanks
there are some colours that are not in polychromos - if you look at my comparison chart you will see - ko-fi.com/s/ac3d3e4038
I did thank you. Mind made up I will get them thank you 🥳
@@CatherineProsalendis-cp1ve I hope you like them x
