- Nyoni Colored Pencil Review | The Best Budget Colored Pencils
In this review we are going to be taking a look at the Nyoni Colored Pencils from China. They are what would be considered a budget colored pencils so if budget colored pencils are not what you are looking for then this review may not be for you, however, I have a load of high end reviews which might be more helpful.
Despite the Nyoni being classified as budget colored pencils, in my opinion, they are only budget in price, the quality of these pencils are a sight to behold. Check out the links below for more parts of the review.

Thank you for your integrity, people from all income levels are looking for pencils so that they to can enjoy coloring as a hobby, no one should be made to feel left out because they can't afford the best of the best. Frankly, I can afford what I want and to tell you the truth I love, love, love my Brutfuner Square 120 set. So again, thank you for helping everyone no matter their budget get the pencil for them!! :)
Thank you so much Eileen really appreciate your comment. I have the 120 Brutfunner to review but I have also just purchased the 520 set and when my wife finds out I am for the high jump, but I know so many people have been asking about them and I wanted to review them for you all. But I will have the 120 set up soon.
@@TheArtGearGuide Awesome! Is it the 120 square Brutfuners? I'd love to hear what you think about them. Also looking to your review of the 520 round ones.
Honestly Eileen whilst the expensive professional pencils are very nice, unless you are selling your artwork, you don't really need them. I do professional work so I do have the top sets but I also have the Brutfuner & I just love them! They are a perfectly good pencil and apart from the lightfastness they perform much the same as some of the so called top end sets. I prefer my Brutfuner over my Polychromos!
@@TheArtGearGuide I will be looking out with interest to see what you say about the 520 set. So few reviews and concerns they are not good quality, etc. If it is as good as this set and the colours are different? It will be popular.
The high end stuff is supposed to be for artists who sell art and were never meant for the average hobbyist. That being said, people at lower income levels can't afford to waste 60 bucks on something they won't like so these reviews are important to me. I personally went with Arteza after they became open stock and dealt with the issue they had a year ago.
Thanks for this video! I’ve been curious about these pencils recently!
I’ve just done a few searches and found that these are another manufacturer offers “white-labeling” - so Nyoni are the original pencils, but other companies can buy them with their own logos and packaging to sell under their own names- like Brutfuner do. Meaning it’s quite possible they’ll start showing up on Amazon as different brand names, but the same set of pencils.
I did similar research for my own Brutfuner review I’m doing this week, because I know a lot of people are confused about how white-labeling works and unsure what it means when buying pencils. It’s more common that we realize!
It’s not a bad thing, especially if they are good pencils! It makes art more affordable and accessible. As long as you do your research before buying if you intend to “collect” multiple brands and don’t want duplicates.
Yeah I think there is a set showing up in America under the name of Merkart or something like that and they are supposed to be the Nyoni but I have no way of confirming that so I’ll have to wait until I can get hold of that set and compare.
@@TheArtGearGuide I will be waiting for that review.. The Markart are priced at a budget price.. but the Same??
@@lovethelordjesuspraisethel3286 My experience is that I like the actual Nyoni better.. for whatever it is worth. Even if supposedly the same, the set that says Nyoni is better for me for whatever reason.
How strange - the Zulu word (South Africa) for Nyoni is bird, and the picture on the box is feathers! 😬. I wonder if there is any connection at all to Africa or if it is a Chinese word and the feathers are a total coincidence? Interesting! Thanks for the review 👍👌
it aslo means exactly what you said in the ndebele language and im wondering the same
The Markart 120 set is a private label version of these. No eraser or sharpener, but the tray instead has elastic bands to help lift the trays up. Just got a set of those based purely on how they look and the price point. ($30 US for the 120 set, which is insane.)
I love reviews for good budget pencils. I can’t afford to use my more expensive pencils on every picture I color. So a good budget pencil is worth it to me. I do like this color pallet. No pencils for me for a few months though. Lol. I’m over my budget. But that’s what a wish list is for. Nice review!!
I think your reviews are very important. Everyone has different needs and different financial circumstances. You are one of the most unbiased reviewers that I watch on a regular basis.
Thank you for yet another comprehensive review. I'm chuffed that you do reviews for budget pencils. And I'm super happy that you vindicated me on my purchase of these. I've had them since January and I think they're just great! And I have a file of the colour name translations if you like. I read the company blurb when I looked at them, and they said their aim was to produce the best Chinese colouring pencil. I think they've started extremely well.
I agree with you 100 % and think they have done an excellent job at creating good quality pencils at very inexpensive cost. My Son done Japanese and Mandarin for languages at school and he helped me a bit, but he stopped languages two years ago when he studied Physics, Chemistry, High Maths and Ethics and Philosophy for his A levels as he wants to study Physics at Uni
I would very much like the English color names if you are willing to share them. Thank you in advance. 👍
Hi Harry. I was very happy to find your review of Nyoni pencils! Thanks for all your hard work and honesty
I have just got these in South africa and I am very very impressed. I have some high end pencils but I have been enjoying these so much!
Thank you for another wonderful review. I feel like you have made this medium accessible to people with a wide range of budgets. I look forward to seeing what you have coming up in the future.
Hi there I got me a set of 48 nyoni pencil crayons. After working with them and loving there lay down I ordered myself the 120 set which arrived today. So excited as the colours are stunning. Thank you so much for your review on them. Truly happy with my choice. Have a wonderful day 💖
Thanks for your reviews. I really trust your judgement. My set of these arrives today. With your review now I am really excited to try them. All the pencils deserve a review as everybody should be able to enjoy their hobbies, their art. Continue with the channel! I am actually going through all your videos nowadays as I am new in using colored pencils.
I've just returned to drawing after far too many years away, and although Faber Castell Polychromos are on my "To buy" list, I wanted to buy something inexpensive to use for now until I feel my talent warrants the splurge on luxury. Thank you for your reviews. I've spent the last few days watching and listening, and have just ordered the 120 tin of Nyoni pencils to get me started. Can't wait for them to arrive. For now the Polychromos are on my wish list, but I'm sure there'll be lots of other purchases now I've fallen in love with drawing again! Keep up the good work... Your reviews are amazing!!
I have tested many pencils. I use the top line brands in my work. The Nyoni is so close to the Polychromos it is hard to tell them apart in some colors. These blow my Brutfuner pencils aside as well as Soucolor as far as cheaper pencils go. The Schipirerr Farben are similar, but Nyoni edges them out. They layer lightly like a dream. I am pretty picky.
I’ve ordered these 2 weeks ago, getting excited about them arriving from Aliexpress, brilliant video as always x
I think you will like them, I love mine and I’m fact I am working on a comparison video with these and the Faber Castell Polychromos because I am often asked how much are they like the FC Polychromos.
There's another set of Chinese pencils called Obos, the biggest set in 200 colours! I'm wondering if they're the same pencils under a different brand because the barrels look exactly the same except for what it's written on them (it's in Chinese). They even have the two golden rings. Congratulations, you do amazing reviews!
I’ll have a wee look and try to get hold of them
@@TheArtGearGuide Thank you! 🙂
I have the Obos and love them, very creamy and gorgeous colors
i have both sets and the Obos are not the same as the Nyoni.
Nyoni has an other coloursceme and more pigment then the Obos. They look more like the round brutfuner
@@moonDolk good to know, which ones are harder?
Exceptional review, I would love to know what chinese brand do you like the most
So far, I think I would have to go with the Nyoni. I think… I might have to give this question a bit more thought actually because I like the Phoenixcolor as well, their Tribute set. Let me get back to you on this and thank you so much for your wonderful comment I really appreciate it
@@TheArtGearGuide
I bought 50 Phoenix pencils couldn't afford the 100 set unfortunately
I bought them because I had A German Shep Called Phoenix but She died
So in memory if her I bought them
@@TheArtGearGuide😊 I Like The Phoenix 1s Only Because The Stunning Artwork But Mainly The Name, I Had A GSD Called Phoenix She Past Away. I bou8A Set Of 50.
I just love your reviews and your presentation style. Just like we were at the table just having a chat and cuppa. Keep the good work coming.
Not name driven, result motivated.
As always Steve mate thank you so much for your support and comment always appreciate it so much
I appreciate how in depth all of your reviews are. Some reviews are mostly swatches, which is not enough use to show the true pencil performance. Thank you for your work and time!
I really had to go hunting while watching this video and found it on Aliexpress. Thank you for another thorough review.
I love your reviews! And that you review such a wide range of pencils! Your channel and website are such a treasure trove of useful information!
Great review as always. You helped me decide on my next purchase, wish I found your channel sooner.
Beautiful set of pencils. Thank you for the review.
Thanks for this great review Harry, I bought a set, they came today and I really like them. Phenomenal value 🎉
Heads up the Markart on Amazon it's the same as Nyoni but cheaper.
It depends . I recently purchased the Nyoni on AliExpress and they are cheaper( on sale at the time I purchased ) even with shipping than Amazon's Markart ( Amazon Canada anyway )
@@lovetobecolouring2 oh really? I paid 60.00 to the US, and Amazon has them now for 39.99, I got them 4 months ago
karinaArreguin I just ordered mine. On AliExpress they were $49 And then 15 $ shipping.
On Amazon Canada they are over $ 100 Canadian plus shipping on top of that . I looked on Amazon USA but it was the same as AliExpress, factoring in the rates of exchange. So it pays to look first ! :)
The pencils look similar to Fuxi pencils on Amazon and to Obos on AliExpress. Interesting who is the original manufacturer.
I have been asked to review the Obos from Ali so when I get those I’ll certainly compare them and see how they compare. I’ve never seen the Fuxi but I’ll check them out as well, thank you so much for the heads up.
Your reviews on colored pencils are fantastic, very detailed. All of my colored pencils I have brought, are from watching your reviews. Keep up the excellent work 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for another comprehensive review Harry - always love your artwork xx
Thank you for this review, I watched this video 2 months ago. These pencils look so good that I bought them. I am swatching them now and I like them. They look similar to Starjoy. I don't have starjoy, so I can't compare. Thank you, Harry. Stay healthy.
I am so glad you like, I personally love mine. I have never tried Starjoy yet myself but I am going to have to get them to help me make some comparisons and to help me determine which of these pencils from different brands are identical so I can hopefully save people some money. Thank you so much for your comment and support
Ate these the SAME as the Markart. Many are saying.. I'm just wondering to buy which ones. I APPRECIATE ALL YOU DO!!
I have this set and love it to bits. It is now in a 252 slot pencil case along with polychromos. The sharpener works amazingly well on this set of pencils. Better than my other sharpeners other than the hand crank one I have. Just as a heads up, apparently the 200 set of obos pencils is a nyoni set. I have not bought that (yet) but those who have say they are nyoni. But 200 set.
Yeah I have had a lot of people tell me this, the only thing I don’t understand is from what I can tell the colors in the Nyoni don’t look to be present in the Obos, but I could be wrong as I haven’t got my set yet of the Obos. Also, Nyoni has only recently released this 120 set, if they had 200 colors, why not release a Nyoni set of 200 as this would mean more money for the company and after all that is the name of the game. But I will be able to tell better when I get the set of Obos, reach out to a factory or manufacturer or just test them side by side. So I will have to wait and see.
@@TheArtGearGuide thanks for this. I know you will be honest and would also say which are repeats in the OBOS set. If the set is predominantly shades not in the Nyoni? But being Nyoni are the same good quality? I could justify getting them. SO I will be watching for that review :)
Wonderful review...I definitely like to use budget brands as well....thank you for this
Muito boa apresentação dos lápis de cores.😊🇧🇷💖👍✏️🖼🎨🖌👏👏👏
Olá!!! Você por aqui!!!! Kkkk . Os americanos conhecem todos os truques chineses. Aqui descobri que a grande maioria de lápis com corpo preto são H e B . E agora que esse é o obos
Thanks for the great review , that's interesting about the brown tones.. now I'm curious to see how they compare to the Mitsubishi unis which I have started to run out of..
Thank you! I watch all of your reviews. Most times I don't want to buy them but it is fun to watch and most times I learn something new. Have a great day
Thank you for the comprehensive reviews. I have a slight pencil addiction. I own the Deli Pencils (not a fan of Star Joy) and had the 48 Markart and recently starting enjoying the released 120 Markart set. I would be happy to send you what you need (some pencils from, the full 48 Markart set or an Amazon gift card) in order for you to continue to educate the community. I am confident that Markart are repackaged Nyoni pencils. BTW, the Square 120 Brutfuner's perform lovely (I have them), but I did not like the performance of the black/round set (180). I did not buy that set. FYI, Brutfuners square vs round are not the same formulation in different shapes. To clarify for another commenter on this thread: Markart (Nyoni) and Deli perform differently and have different colors in the sets. Cheers!
Thank you so much for the incredibly kind offer Natalie I really appreciate it but I have ordered the Deli 72 set and will get the Markart set soon. But thank you so much I can’t tell you how much your generosity means to me
@@TheArtGearGuide You are most welcome!

I LOVE my Deli pencils. My husband who knows I love pencils and didn't know what brands I wanted, was so proud of himself after he picked those out and gifted them to me. I'd never heard of them. I wasn't expecting much but wow are they a really really amazing pencil esp for the price. If these nyoni are anything similar, I'd love to give them a try. These are around $70 on Amazon US but the Markart is much cheaper. I've heard they're the same but I still kind of just want the nyoni.
Which one is the better? Nyoni or Deli?
Hi Harry! Another fantastic review! Just as other fans had commented, the Markart are the Nyoni pencils. I agree with you tenfold that these pencils are so vibrant for being budget friendly. I love my Delis and Star Joys as well. I have the pricier brands as well, but to colour any day, I reach for the Nyonis and Delis! You are correct for AliExpress being dangerous! Ha ha ha ha. Thank you for all you do! :)
Which one is the best? Deli or Nyoni?
My new 120 Markart colored pencils from Amazon have numbers which start with “n”. - Definitely a budget set price at less than $30. It’s a delightful set! Also very easy to lose the needle sharp point with very light pressure. Is this the same set (color palette) as the 120 Nyomi set that you are reviewing? 🤔
They could very well be, I’ve had a lot of people tell me they think they are the same pencil but as of yet, I’ve not been able to get my hands on a set of MarkArt to compare test and review. But as soon as I manage to get a set I’ll upload my findings.
Thanks for this reviev. Castle Art Supplies vs Nyoni?
I have almost every pro level brand of,pencils from Caran D'Ache (all lines), polychromos, lightfast, Derwent artists, Lyra (not really high end), Berol (before they became cheaper Prismacolors, and more. I use them in my artwork. I wanted to have cheaper brands for handmade cards etc. I am able,to test many products and have most of the cheaper lines of pencils as a result.
I have to say, I use all of my pencils for various things and every time I use my Nyoni pencils, I carry on and on about how wonderful they are. They are simply delightful. Best quality cheaper pencil line I have tried yet. Schiller Farben is a close 2nd, but not as nice. Nyoni are really beautiful pencils. Glad to see I am not the only one who feels this way.
may i ask your opinion, which one is better between brutfuner professional pencil square or this nyoni set?? i hope u answer this, cause i really confused between them 😰
I bought these after watching this review as now I am teaching I am always looking for good, cheaper options. I love the colours although some are quite similar. The greens and some blues are quite scratchy though. they do remind me of Holbein. All together I think they are worth the money. They are about $60 AUD which is considered cheap here.Thanks again for a great review.
Hi Ellie, that is something I have noticed, when I am able to source links for subscribers in Australia the prices are crazy high. I don’t check things like how strong the Pound is against the US Dollar or Euro etc, but the prices for Australia always seem so incredibly high and from what I can gather from a lot of ex Army mates who moved to Australia, the standard of living is not much different from the UK, so I don’t get why the art supply prices always seem so high. I always feel bad adding Aus prices because when I do my review I talk about the product with a view to price worth and for the most part, the UK, US, Euro and Canada are all similar price brackets.
@@TheArtGearGuide I think its that we are a long way from most places, not China of course, but mainly that we are a small market. As you will be aware, the more units sold the lower the price. I am playing with these pencils as we speak and love them on most papers. I have colouring books too and they work so well in those. I find colouring relaxing when I don't have a lot of time. At the moment I don't have a studio as family are living in it so room is also an issue. Hard to do original work when a toddler can get to your work lol.
I wish these were available on Amazon, I've never bought from Aliexpress, I find the site really confusing & they don't seem to accept PayPal. Also it seems the price has been hiked up, these are now over £40 for the 120 set.
I’ve just double checked the link on my review and your right they have gone up a bit but only to £32 which still isn’t bad for 120 pencils of this quality. It might be my fault that they have gone up because if people are buying them they might do what all companies do and capitalise on the extra sales.
With regards to Ali being confusing you are indeed right, the first time I used it I was confused and I must admit, the item I purchased was really cheap because I didn’t expect it to arrive, but it did and this is why I’ve talked about Ali in recent videos because the service is first class.
You can use PayPal but to pay this way I think you have to set up an account, which is just a user name and password, this is when you have the option of putting in your PayPal account, debit card or credit card.
When you click on the link I’ve supplied it will take you straight to the Nyoni products. Once there you will see about ten icons, all showing different sets of Nyoni and set sizes because there are watercolour Nyoni but they are a different tin Color. Select the set size of Nyoni you want, 120, 72, 48 or 36 and once you select the set you want add it to your cart. Go into your cart and if you don’t want to set up an account you will be asked all your shipping details etc and then you enter your payment details and I am almost positive that you will see a PayPal icon at this stage because I have payed via PayPal.
It can be confusing at first, I did find it confusing when I first ordered, but if you are really not comfortable, don’t put yourself through worry and upset for a set of pencils. I wish they were available on Amazon as well but as with so many foreign products it might take a bit of time before they finally arrive here.
@@TheArtGearGuide Oh Harry thank you so much for taking the time to even reply, let alone the extremely helpful and detailed instructions that you gave. You are a truly lovely person, one of the people who make the world a better place.
Excellent that the price has come down (it was showing £42 when I looked although you are right it's hardly a lot for 120 pencils) and thank you for explaining Aliexpress to me, if I can pay via PayPal then I am happy.
Although I really don't need these pencils at all, I shouldn't even be thinking about getting them. I recently got the 120 Caran D'ache Pablos because I watched your review of them! I love them so much (those greens!) your review was spot on! I also bought some Winsor and Newton Pigment Markers after watching your review, I really like them too - sad to see they are discontinued now. This is why I watch your reviews Harry, I completely trust your opinion and you've never let me down. The only problem I have is when I see a review like this I want the thing you're reviewing!
I saw a comment somewhere that Markart are the same as Arteza. Is it true, can someone please advise?
I don't enjoy working with Arteza, as they feel too waxy. Meaning, they remind me a lot of childrens' crayons. Very difficult to layer with different colors and they get a lot of wax bloom.
Thanks! I loved your review of the Nyoni pencils! They are available in the US on Amazon under the Markart brand name.
Another Chinese pencil that's out there and hard to get is the Phoenix pencils. They have amazing designs on the barrels and would love your review of them if you can get a hold of them!
Hi Becky thank you so much for the heads up on the Phoenix pencils I’ll definitely look them up and give them ago. Thank you so very much for the support I really appreciate it
Hi Becky just seen the Phoenix and they will definitely be added to the list. I can’t get them just yet cause if I spend any more money on pencils to review my wife will string me up from the Town Hall 🤣🤣 but I’ve added them to my Ali cart and once I can afford to get them I absolutely will, they look beautiful
Awesome! Look forward to it!
@@TheArtGearGuide Heya! found another set to get in trouble with. they look so much fun. Made in Mexico and available on Amazon, but shipping isn't free (probably because its new?)
www.amazon.com/Professional-Students-Teachers-Coloring-Sketching/dp/B094QDFGDK?ref_=ast_sto_dp
www.amazon.com/Special-Colour-Set-Quetzal-Creative/dp/B094S8G255?ref_=ast_sto_dp
www.amazon.com/Indra-Creative-Colored-pencil-professional/dp/B08GJBPGF1?ref_=ast_sto_dp
They might combine shipping for multiple sets? I'd love to see a review of these!
They are different!
Your reviews are great - please keep presenting all sorts of pencils. Everybody starts from somewhere and use their pencils for different purposes so it's wonderful if affordable or otherwise different options are reviewed, too.
I really appreciate a review like this. I'm really on a budget but I want to grow but things like Prisma are completely out of my range but I've seen these and really would like to know if I should get them. This helps a lot.
I think this would be an excellent set to start off with.
another great review was planning to purchase the Deli sj star joy coloured pencils and would love if you could review these next as most people like myself would love to be able to afford a 120 set but in the high end pencils that usually ends up only being in a 12/24 set, so thanks so much for giving the budget pencils some much needed love
I have seen the Deli pencils, but I have only seen a 72 set, but I want to add them to my review collection. It might take me a while though because I’ve purchased so many pencils lately to review and I bought the 520 set of Brutfunner, if I buy any more this month my wife will have me in a tent in the back garden 😂😂😂
I can't wait for the brutfuner 520 review. I'm still waiting for mine.
Very helpful, thanks! Love your accent too. 🏴
I love your reviews. Your perspective and style are unique!
Yesss, I've been waiting for this review, thanks! How do they compare to the Marco Renoir, the Brutfuner Squares and other budget brands? As well as to the Koh-i-noor and Lyra Polycolor? Thank you!
I look forward to your review of the watercolour version. Thanks again! I just discovered your channel and I love it!
Thank you so much for your review. I've just read that you will review Brutfunner 520 coloured pencil !! 💛💛💛💛
Yeah Astrid I ordered them a couple days ago, I was going to wait until the end of the month but I know a lot of people want to know more about them so I got them on our credit card because I knew it would take about 10 days for them to arrive. But I am really excited about reviewing them
@@TheArtGearGuide Thanks so much. I'll be waiting for your videos.
Do you know if the Raam refined are the same as these? People are saying that these are the same as the Markart . I bought the Raam refined as my first set . I was thinking of getting these or Markart but not if they are the same . The Raam was a 180 set
Unfortunately I can’t help you with this question as I have never tried the Raam they are really difficult to get hold of in the U.K. and as of yet not tried them. Sorry I couldn’t have been of more help
They could have added the name! It’s kind of absurd that they don’t use a basic translating app like Google or pay an actual professional translator, it’s not even that expensive for a large coompany.
They do look really nice. Thank you for your great reviews!
I started coloring about 6 months ago when my husband gifted me a Daler Rowney art set that included 48 colored pencils, got into YT and then I bought a 150 set of Prismacolor and a 72 of Brutfuner, I am not a collector. I want the Inktense and a good budget set of watercolor pencils, hopefully I can find something that can allow me to play around with different mediums!
I have this set and it's absolutely great 😍
Enjoyed your review. Will try these out. Love the colors!
Have the watercolor pencils already arrived, yet?
Between Brutfuner 120 an these ones: could you choose a favorite? Which ones are softer?
Yeah I have the Watercolour pencils but I have a few reviews to get done before I get them uploaded. I have to say I would chose the Nyoni over the Brutuner. They are both really nice pencils for the price, but I personally enjoyed the Nyoni a bit better
@@TheArtGearGuide Thanks for giving me your honest opinion, I really appreciate that! I have bought the brutfuners a while ago and I mostly like them. Some of the pencils are so soft and smooth to work with...but some are sooo sooo hard. Really inhomogeneous....is this better with the Nyonis - do you remember this?
I'll wait patiently for the watercolor pencil review...I'm glad to hear that you already received it. Couldn' t find another review...I think you'll be the first one...
Hi Harry,
Thank you very much for your informative videos, I've always found what I wanted in your videos, and it helps a lot before I decide to buy a box of pencils.
Greetings from Belgium for you and your family.
Séverine
Hi Séverine than you so much for your Wonderfull comment and I wish you the very best of luck for the giveaway, thank you so much for your support
Late to your channel but im absolutely getting these pencils I agree with your review on pencils people can't always afford it or it's not avaible in different countries for example south africa is only getting into adult colouring they very late to the party but we don't have everything here but like the nyoni it is avaible thanks for the review
How well do they color on cardstock paper which is pretty smooth? I find soucolor pencils which are also budget friendly pencils color very well on more toothy paper like Hannah karlzon books but very poorly on cardstock paper like coloring books from Christian art publishers.
Thanks for another wonderful review. I am tempted by these pencils but the limited range of browns bothers me, though I suppose my other pencils can compensate. I also just got the Brutfuner 120 squares in. Maybe I will return the Bruts since I haven’t opened them yet...
The Nyoni blend so well in light layers, it is possible to create nice browns..
Can you compare Markart 120 vs Arteza 120 colored pencils? They have same descriptions on tin, and they feel similar. I just want to see your thoughts them.
Hi Chrissy, I will indeed, I’ve had a lot of people say this about the Markart pencils being similar to this that and the other set of pencils, so I am really intrigued to test them. I am finding it a bit difficult to get hold of the Markart pencils here in the UK, but we will see. Thank you so much for the request Chrissy really appreciate it and your support thank you so much
Are you doing one on the deli pencils too? they say nyoni and deli are suppose to be the same pencils it be nice to know!
@@lindam.6782 i wouldnt know. I dont have them. But theres a bigger youtuber thats said markart, deli, nyoni and another pencil set are the same pens. Hence me asking harry about it :)
All pencils matter. Many people want good quality pencils for their own personal play & sketching. Not everyone is selling commissioned or fine art that has to last decades.
Thanks for this great review, would love to hear what you find out about the market and these. I have not ordered from aliexpress.
The first time I ordered from Ali it was a wee bit daunting but I had to because I wanted to have access to pencils from the other side of the world and I had to say one way or the other what the service was like for you guys, I didn’t feel happy saying buy from Ali but I have never tried them. They are excellent
As always so love your reveals and wonderful artwork. I clicked on the link for AliExpress on the US and it looks like they are water soluble pencils. Does that cause any problems when used dry? I have never used my water soluble ones that way.
Hi Susan, the link takes you to the ones I have reviewed and the watercolour version as well, there should be about 10 smaller icons and each one represents a set size or watercolour set, as you click on them you will see the larger images, price and title change and from there you can click on Add to Cart and then purchase.
It can be a wee bit confusing navigating round AliExpress for the first time, I certainly found it daunting. Hope this helps Susan and I am so sorry for the delay in replying to you
Thank you so much. I found it! 😀
Do you think, that these colored pencils are the same as the Brutfuner? I have heard the Brutfuner producer produces pencils as white label product. The tin looks pretty the same. But the color palete...I'm not sure.
Thankyou Harry. Love your artwork!! This question is for one of your subs Jessica Erasmus. I too am from South Africa and I would love to know where she purchased this set. She left a comment regarding this set. Tried leaving a message for her but iPad is playing up. Harry much appreciated love all your videos love your channel🌸🌸
Hi Robyn I’ll try to pass the message on to Jessica for you but I am guessing it was AliExpress. I’ll leave a message on her comment for you and ask her to contact you
These are now available on Takealot.com in South Africa, but only in sets with 72 pencils or less.
Sir I watch almost all your reviews and I love it (I don't skip the ads on your videos), but the camera setting makes the colors looks overly exposed/saturated, I don't know if you could fix that? Other than that keep up the good work.
I’ll take a wee look at the video editing software but I try not to touch things like contrast saturation etc because I want the camera to pick up the colors as is, I feel if I start messing about with the setting I’ll be giving a false representation of the colors. But I will certainly take a wee look and do my best. I do know what you mean, but as I say, I am just worried about showcasing a false representation of colors.
I don’t have the best set up either, I am just in the corner of our living room always aware of my wife going nuts at the piles of pencils gathering all over the house.
I am trying to save for a garden outhouse, we have a large back garden and if I could afford one of those I wouldn’t have to setup and re set up every day for recording and photos etc, I’d also be able to do much more live streams. The way things are at the minute I have to kick my wife and kids out of the living room when I live stream which then limits my time. Il work something out I promise and thank you so very much for your support also no need to call me Sir, Harry, I don’t see you guys as subscribers more friends
@@TheArtGearGuide you take great care in your videos and it shows, I understand what you mean about kicking everyone to be able to record, as I also paint, sew and do my projects in our living/room.
Thank you for showing us all these amazing colored pencils, I've learned a lot about them, and I hope you can keep reviewing more aliexpress pencils, it's kind of a universe on its own! Best wishes to you and your family.
Hi Harry.
I want to buy my first set of pencils and after watching some other of your videos I decided to buy a student grade set like Bruynzeel Expression. Do you think this Nyoni set will be better for a beginner than the Bruynzeel set? I know you said this is by far the best budget but I don’t know if you are talking about AliExpress budget or all budget sets.
Thanks for all the amazing reviews.
Hi my friend, I think availability is the only matter to consider between both the Bruynzeel Expression and Nyoni and a lot of that will depend upon where you live in the world.
I love both pencils, but for me personally, the Expression pencils are much easier and quicker to replace. Neither set are sold open stock, so you would need to buy a new set entirely when you run out of pencils, which isn’t too much of an issue financially speaking as both sets are relatively inexpensive.
It’s a difficult choice, I love both sets if I had the same access to both pencils if probably go for the Nyoni and mainly because of the palette. I really enjoy botanical art and the Nyoni set are a little better suited for my style of art. Sorry I couldn’t give you a better answer but essentially check out which set you can get access to most and you won’t go too far wrong with either set. They are both excellent budget pencils.

@@TheArtGearGuide thank you, it helps.
I have access to both here in Portugal. Open Stock was a strong requirement for choosing a set but I desisted the idea because local stores only have derwent/Faber castell/caran d’ache for open stock. If in the future I’m really into drawing, it will worth to spend some money on any of those but not now.
Thanks for the advice and have a nice day
It was very good review! I think about buying this pencil, because they are chip and good in use. And in your video I found new information about this pencils. Thank you!
Are the Markart 120 colored pencils the same as the Nyomi pencils?
Are the colors the same?
Unfortunately I can’t answer this because I haven’t reviewed the MarkArt Colored Pencils as they cost £149 or £169 in the U.K. if they come down in price some time soon I will certainly review them and answer your question. Sorry about that my friend
The Markart Pencils on Amazon in the US are $35. I think they are the same pencil as the Nyoni, only in different tins. All of the numbers on the color charts appear to be the same, only in a different order. The Markart pencils have English names where as the Nyoni pencils are in Chinese.
Since the Markart pencils were so cheap I ordered a box. The Nyoni
Pencils are like $70, double the price of the Markart pencils on Amazon here.
Thanks for your help.
Beautiful art work. You just sold me some pencils.. wondering if you do a video showcasing your art pieces
Hi ... how do you compare this with the Marco Tribute and in your opinion, which is better? And thank you so much for your great reviews!
Thank you for your review. Some people don't need their coloured pencils to be lightfast as they just want them for their mindful colouring book.
I am really sure that they are made by the same factory as the arteza pencils. The wood looks the same, smells the same, the barrel looks like it has the same paint on it, but Arteza has different color shades in their set. The core looks the same. When you look at both when not sharpened yet, the top of the pencil looks similar.
You can test similar colors next to each other, one blue of nyoni is the same shade as one blue from arteza, the shade is not always the same but when you test this two next to each other, they feel exactly the same, nyoni color number N36 and arteza Mykonos blue, this two showes it the best.
But in general all of them feel the same. Some of arteza feel scratchy and some of nyoni aswell, especially the dark greens in both sets
Thank you so much for this video.
Hope this is not a paid promotion. I too got a 36 set recently and don't find it much different from student grade pencils.
They look awesome! But I can't get the company homepage link to work. I'd like to contact them to seeif they consider thee pencils vegan/cruelty free.
Hi Beth I will try my best and find this out for you. I tried to contact the company but the language barrier was just too much, mind you, a fantastic subscriber from China has reached out to me and said they would translate for me anytime I need it, which was so incredibly kind. But I will do my best and find this out for you and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.
I didn’t know markart and nyomi are the same, I love my markart and recommended them several times
Nyoni vs bruthfuner?
For me personally Nyoni, I love the palette in the Nyoni and I think the pencil just feels like a better made pencil, they remind me of Polychromos the way they feel in the hand
Hi! I was wondering, Are those lightfast?
Mark Art are Nyoni pencils too
The Mark Art I used were not as nice as the Nyoni I use for whatever reason. 🤷♀️
Informative. thank you.
You are welcome mate glad you liked it
Gorgeous drawing
Thank you! ❤️❤️
Thank you so muchh for this video💞💞💞
Thank you for spend time to review this not yet well-known brand. I am very curious about them.
Is this wax pencils
OH Thankyou so much Harry for your trouble.🌸🌸🌸
Thank you for respecting everybody. Not everyone can afford expensive pencils..
Which one is the best? Deli or Nyoni?
I will have to get back to you on that, I am just about to finish my review of the Deli, I am still testing and finishing off my art but I will get back to you
@@TheArtGearGuide I will be looking forward to it. I am in dire need of a pencil case and these two brands appealed to me. From what I hear, they are very similar, but I don't see anyone on RUclips comparing them. I wanted to decide quickly, because the prices here are attractive, I fear they will go up.
@@TheArtGearGuide I'm about to buy the Deli ones as they are cheaper than the Nyoni ones.
Wouldn't the best be quality pencils but smaller sets? Do these pencils use FSC wood, are they sustainable? Because cheap pencils, and especially Chinese stuff don't give a damn about that.
The price of these is not much cheaper than prisma premier so i wouldnt way they are cheap.
I don't want pencils that I cannot replace when needed from open stock.
All pencil sets never have enough reds😭😭😭😭😭
Específicamente en esta reseña hablas mucho pero no dices nada relevante de los colores. 👍
Nye-owe-knee.
I asked the manufacturer if these were vegan and the answer was yes. They're based on vegetable oil and pigments with no links to creatures of any type.
I’m still trying to get to the bottom of this before I say definitively one way or the other. There is another pencil on the market that is, basically exactly the same as the Nyoni and made by the very same people and when I asked them about that pencil being Vegan, I was told no. What you have to remember when asking a lot of these much newer companies questions, at least in my experience, is this. Most of the time you are just talking to a representative, not a specialist in the actual product. They often tell you what you want to hear. When I first started out reviewing products about 7 years ago now, I found this out the hard way. I thought because I asked the company, I am right in the information I am providing. Then I developed a system. Ask a question, come back a day or so later and ask the same question, I do this three different times and if the answer is always the same, it’s the best indicator that what you are being told is right.
So many times I have do this and been told three different things each time. I am not saying this is the case for the big companies like Faber Castell, Derwent, Caran d’Ache, Lyra, Koh-I-Noor etc, but certainly for the companies that flood Amazon with a product for a year or so and then you never see them again.
If I can pin point any information about this that I am happy to stand behind, I will absolutely add it to the written review.
@@TheArtGearGuide I contacted the manufacturer directly and asked the questions. They intend to contact the vegan websites with the appropriate information. We have to be careful about not having double standards. It's easy in the West to trust what Western companies say and distrust what companies from China or elsewhere say. The reality is this company has been manufacturing art products for years. Perhaps not as long as Faber Castell but it's not a start-up business. The video of their factory making pencils makes that very clear.
My background is in executive information for use by boards and senior management teams. I'm aware of how to ask questions of companies. Western companies can be guilty of PR spin in the same way as any other global companies.

Don't feel offended but allow me to give you a constructive criticism: slim down the length of your videos. It will make your videos more interesting.
Thank you so much for the advice and I really appreciate it, but I’ve done this before and the subscribers asked for the longer videos back again. This is why I add a written review with clear subheading so that those who don’t like the long videos can go to the written review and get the information the want instantly. Thank you so much for your advice
@@TheArtGearGuide your VIDEOS REVIEWS DO Answer All our questions..I APPRECIATE YOU SO MANY DO!!! 🙏🤟❣
I understand you but sorry for insisting, I still think is possible to edit your videos to under 10min and having the same content. However you would have to shrink your video (cut small sections, use fast forward, transitions, etc) and edit your narrative and revoice over. And that takes HUGE time that probably you don't have. Your content is really good either way and if you say your subscribers like long videos (perhaps because it feels you are having a face to face discussion with them), then keep up the good work and thanks for your videos.
