    My review today focuses on the popular Derwent Graphitint range, the range is relatively small in numbers, however the colours are to die for and unsurpassed by many other watersoluable pencils on the market; but are they worth the investment? are you likely to use them on a painting and are they a quality product? lets find out.
    To begin with, the specifics of the medium should be covered, closely followed by the performance. Unfortunately, and I use the term unfortunately due to the delectable colour palette, there are only twenty four colours in the Derwent Graphitint range. However, this is another case of be careful what you wish for, if this range, as is the same issue with the Derwent Drawing Range, was increased, then you would start to lose the absolute uniqueness of the colour range, turning both sets into ordinary run of the mill pencil sets.
    Check out my written review of the Derwent Graphitint Coloured Pencil.

    Just purchased them. Looking forward to using them in landscapes. I agree with you regarding not expanding the set. A wee bundle is a good thing!

    Hi Harry, I came over after seeing Marty mention you on his channel and I'm glad he did! I've been looking at picking these up if I see them go on sale so I was happy to have more info to go on. They really do look like great colours. I hope you're having a good day and your back isn't bothering you too much. 😊

    Hi Harry, great video! 😆 I purchased these about 6 months ago. I got them specifically because of the wonderful muted colors. I haven't tried them yet, but I will. 😉 I got them to go along with my burnings. I was bummed to hear what others said about their lightfastness, some claiming to have them fade in sketch books kept closed. I will be trying a UV spray over them to see if that helps. Of course, it was the purples and reds that are lower. I hope all is going as well as it can for you. I know how it is trying to get videos made when you hurt like hell, take your time my friend.

    I love your accent, especially when you say Ivy and Sage :-)

    I love Lisa's whales painting (Lachri Fine Art) using these. Now that you have shown us the swatches, they almost look metallic. Even with the water on them they seem to have more of a sheen than Derwent's actual metallic pencils. The shades are great. I just love the picture on the tin.

    There are wonderful UV sprays that are available for professional artists today. These newer and finer brands make issues with lightfastness almost a non-issue. I would love to see some full scale landscapes using these. I have just received a set of 24 today and am going to play a bit. Thanks for all you do. I find your reviews very interesting and informative.

    Beautiful muted colours! Was wondering, you have given so many reviews on products perhaps starting to do at least one tutorial on each item you have reviewed would be a good idea. Would look forward to seeing you properly use each product.

    Yes I would say use water ,the colours are brilliant when wet completely different when dry dull

  • @creativesolutions902

    Thanks for the review, have you tested out there blend ability without water, and erase ability? I would like to use these as regular graphite pencils, I'm not really interested in the water park. Just wanted some muted colors in my graphite sketching. I love the way graphite blends but wanted some thing other than pastel pencils or charcoal

    I love the colors too. But I would love to have a better yellow and a better red. (The “Port” you demonstrated is the closest it comes to red.) I do want to do landscapes with them, but red and yellow do happen in landscapes! (I’ve resorted to using other watersoluble pencils for those.)

    I love these pencils, I've used them for years. They are unsurpassed for doing watercolor landscapes. This reminds me, I need to replace a lot of my pencils!!!

    These pencils are very interesting. I do like Derwent products so I'm going to have to give this a try. Have you tried the Graphitones? They are watersoluble graphite and are pure sticks instead of having wood casing. Love using them since they make great values on sketching.

    You forgot to test erasing. Kind of important when reviewing a pencil I would have thought... :/
