    The full 120 set is the only watercolor pencil set I own. Because of your video I pulled them back out and have been using them. They work great in my Hannah Karlzon book that I have problems with other wet media going through the paper.

    Overall for a budget brand, Kalour products have been very dependable and fun to use and I still cannot believe how much I enjoy their Metallic set. They'll never replace my beloved Prismacolors (other than their sucky Metallics) or Black Widow, but they are getting used way more than any of my other budget sets (and even one or two of the spendier sets). Thanks for doing your reviews on their products.

      So these and Inktense are two different things. Inktense are not actually watercolor pencils at all, and won't be in this battle :). I highly recommend them though -- they are so versatile for the price (the Inktense)

Will have to recover from my recent Prismacolor purchases first.. 😅🤷🏻‍♀️

      They have a 120 set that look like these, and a black-barrel set. This is supposedly their higher grade.

    I've been waiting for this review! I know u reviewed the Premeires recently. There was an Amazon question about the difference of the 2 pencils & Kalour replied that these were their top WC pencils. I'm surprised you didn't get the 120 w your FSS! I've been looking for a budget set for q while now. I threw out the Castle Arts because they kept breaking & the color washes right off. I went back & forth w their CS and after sending them pics of all the breakage & other things they asked for, they thought that refunding me 10% of the cost would be a successful remedy. I told them how other brands like Arteza & Black Widow stood behind their product but put the needs of their customers before all, giving me an entire new set of pencils in both cases. I told them that offering me 10% refund was insulting & ridiculous & did nothing to fix the problem so tossing them & reviewing them accordingly was my only recourse! ANYWAY! I'm so happy that you really liked these Kalour pencils and showed us why u did. That gives me the info I need to decide while giving your approval gives me a reference. Thanks so much & I hope u smile at the good comments & just wave off the others! You're too busy to read crap!!

    • @ColorfullyOptimistic
      @ColorfullyOptimistic  Год назад

      No, because I have artist-grade ones and I won't be keeping these (I mentioned at the end). Interesting they replied to you but ignored me. I have a black barrel set and honestly, the performance is the same. So, I'm sort of not sure they know what a higher grade even is. Regardless, their customer service, as I mentioned a few times, is quite awful lol

      @ArtandDiamondsWithEskies Год назад

      ​@@ColorfullyOptimisticoh my goodness I can't believe you're not keeping them although I understand you do have the ones that all of us artist dream of LOL. I am incredibly curious about the castle arts watercolor pencils being tested by you because I trust your opinions so much. And they are the other budget watercolor pencils that I have had on my wish list for a long time. At this time only watercolor pencils I have are my Anna Valacci and I have not seen them anywhere on Amazon since.

    How do they perform in terms of lightfastness ?

    • @ColorfullyOptimistic
      @ColorfullyOptimistic  Год назад

      Well, as I mentioned in the video, these are budget. So, even if they had lightfast ratings, I personally do not believe the ratings they have given because they are not using artist-grade pigments here. So, you can definitely do your own testing to see true results, but I always caution against using these for commissioned art work because they are not going to have the lightfast you'd expect from higher end pencils
