    I purchased the 120 set of Castle Art colored pencils 2 yrs ago, on a special ‘deal’ from Amazon. I already have both largest sets of Prismacolor and Polychromos. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice and creamy the Castle Art pencils were - very comparable to Prismacolors in their laydown., although not quite as pigment dense. A noteworthy item though, is the paper being used. Thin, smooth paper produces poor layering results regardless what brand of pencils are used.

    Dea, I just came across an absolutely WOW pencil that you have to try. These are Swukonart pencils for 48 pencils for $20 CDN. I was blown away as they are soft, smooth and very vibrant. The barrel is a thick 3.8mm barrel. They sharpened beautifully to a sharp point.

    I received the Castle Art pencils for Christmas but I was disappointed with them. I had heard that they were very soft and creamy but they are not. I agree with your assessment of the Arteza and Castle Art pencils. The Castle Art pencils had a lot of dust which I have not experienced with any other coloured pencils. It would be very interesting for a review and comparison of Amazon coloured pencils. I know that I had commented on the Amazon pencils before but, these are unbelievably awesome pencils. In a review, the colours in the Prismacolor 72 pencil set and the Amazon 72 pencil set are exactly the same. I would be interested in what you think of the Amazon pencils.

  • @bethzolin6046
    @bethzolin6046 2 месяца назад

    Thank you for this interesting video. I wonder if the differences you felt were actually down to the barrel size and finish of the pencils? I have both of these, (actually I have a lot of pencil sets) and to be honest increasingly I’m thinking they are the same pencil, just either with a thinner or thicker barrel. . I’ve bought quite a few sets in the last week - H&B, Kalour, Artxx, Evazar - as gifts for various grandchildren, and whilst swatching them all they’ve felt the same - even the colours are all too often identical, and sometimes with the same colour name, like Brick red and army green. I wouldn’t have noticed if I hadn’t just spent the last 4 days swatching them all. I now suspect my existing Arteza are the same as Kalour, Evazar (might have spelt that wrong) and possibly Artxx - same size barrels, feel and act the same. Ditto the Macaron pastel set too, currently sold by Efimeso but apparently identical to my Brutfuner macaron set. Even the slimmer barrel Brutfuner seem to me to be pretty much identical to my Castle Arts set. In fact last week I bought a set from Amazon (because they came in a lovely pencil case), marketed by by a company called Bajotien. Inside my ‘Bajotien’ set , unlike the photos in the original advert, the pencils inside were all labelled as Brutfuner! Today, when I followed the link to ‘my orders’ to check the name, I now see the set is now listed under the brand name Vizuna this week. They also seem to be sold under the brand name of Litchi, and I suspect Hiforny too.
    It’s starting to feel like there’s a factory somewhere churning out a ton of pencils that folk buy from then sell under their own name, white marketing I think it’s called. I’m certainly wondering why I’ve forked out for another set of Brutfuner when I’ve already got several hundred of them - their square pencils, their original round ones, the Macarons and the 520 set!
    They are all lovely pencils, and I like them very much. As I’ve bought this set as a gift for a grandchild I’ll be keeping them, but would be pretty annoyed if they’d been bought for me - I only need 1 of each pencil! Or am I imagining all this?

    Hi Dea.
    Really glad to see this done. I have been wondering about the Arteza pencils. Still wondering if there is a difference between the "Expert" and the "Professional". Or, if they are the same, why the 2 different adjectives(?) for their descriptions.
    It sounds like I would love the Castle Arts packaging. If I am gonna get a tin container, I want it hinged together. That's a big deal for me. Just easier to keep the stuff from hitting the floor.
    I have found a discontinued pencil set that I think are even more opaque/pigmented than Prismacolor, softer too.
    Ticonderoga Core-lock is what they are called. I got a brand new, still in their plastic set of 12 on ebay for what I believe a great price. I am looking for a larger set to play with. Look them up. I think you would be really surprised by them.
    Big squishes.

    It's too bad about the recent finding about Arteza pencils not being water resistant. I didn't effect me, even though I'm a watercolor artist. Because I always use water mediums first and then pencils. I also haven't used Arteza pencils in years. I actually did go to look and buy a set for my coloring books to save my higher end pencils for my art. But now you can't buy them anywhere. Arteza took them down off Amazon and their website. I don't know if they'll reformulate to a water resistant formula or if they'll just label them with a little notice on them that they're water soluble.

      I had a 72 set of the castle art for $18 either 2016 or 17. Loved them for that price and bought another set of 72 less than a year later. But they more than doubled in price since then. If they had not gone up so high, I would buy them again. But for that amount, I would rather get prismacolor.
