Have got the new ones coming for Christmas and think having some shades similar may aid with my blending. Love black widows and my 8 year old requested dragon set for Xmas. Will take your advice and get her the monarch to build her stash. Like you I am a sucker for packaging and have the complete set
I swatched mine today and ended up reswatching all the other sets…I put them in rainbow order in their separate tins…was interesting to see the differences…🥰
Thanks for info..don’t own any black widow pencils, but this dragon set colors are pretty..maybe will get along w a monarch? Still debating, do I need more pencils 😬😂
I just got mine today and your video was really helpful, I was swatching them out and thought quite a few were similar to other colours but there were a few which were really nice new additions. Thanks for the video
Pretty colors. I just received mine a little bit ago and am in the process of recording my swatching video too. I’ll have to see too how they compare to the other sets.
Thanks for this review. Unfortunately I had already ordered the Dragon set to go with the other sets and the new book for them all arrived a couple of days ago. Had I seen your work earlier, I probably would not have spent the money as 21 near identical shades is just too many for the price! You did an outstanding job and I salute and appreciate your effort. Wishing you a marvelous Holiday Season and a glorious New Year!!!!! Blessings and Love to You and Yours -
Thank you so much for this video. There is a pumpkin in the other set because I use it all the time😉. I also realize there are so many variety of colors. Crimson red, fire red, sun set red, burgundy. I be learning my colors all over again😄. I do have the Monarch,the cobra and black widows, have to get the scorpion. But thanks again, I Totally agree with everything you said.
Thanks for the review , i have now 1 set the Monarchs. Could you tell me what sets I can take from the other ,without having too many duplicats ,please.
There are no duplicates. Some are similar (they are all those found in the skin sets). The sets do not build on each other as other sets do (as Prismacolor). I have all 180. I have already had to replace pencils in the dark skin set I use them so often so I don’t care if any of those are close to other colors.
Similar is not a duplicate, and tbere are a number of spectacular colors in the set. I think there are many "mid-tones" in this set that complement the other sets. Is it perfect? No. Personally I think the entire line is very light on the blues and greens and heavy on the reds and oranges. But at $18USD for 36 pencils, this is not a reason to not purchase the Dragon set.

Thanks for sharing! It would have been interesting to see if the colors are water soluble. So glad I never invested in this set. xx

Love the packaging. I only have the 2 skin tone sets, did you say some of those are repeated?
Thanks for the video.
These are sold out. Hopefully they’ll come back soon. I really want to get them.
Nice mail you have
