POSCA® Colored Pencils, 4.0mm Soft Core, Assorted Colors, 36 Count

The color selection is very nice. You'd assume so with THIRTY SIX SHADES, but really the only color this set lacks is a nice deep purple. Most colors in the set are a nice junction between dull and vivid.
As for the quality of the pencils themselves: they sharpen nicely, have a nice matte finish which feels very nice on the fingers, and the pigment is soft (similar to the hardness of watercolor paint) so they don't snap and they color smoothly even with a decent amount of pressure.
Also, just like other POSCA products, they can write on many surfaces. They do worse than the markers on smooth surfaces like polished wood, but much better on rough surfaces like stone.

So vibrant and smooth!

Posca oil based colored pencils are sensational. Colors are vibrant. Blending is easy. Pencils work on top of other media such as watercolor or acrylic markers.

Fantastic!

They're okay. Only tried in a coloring book and wouldn't say they're worth the hefty price over the markers. But these are very very different as theyre oil based. I have a heavy hand when coloring so maybe they dont vibe well for me. However, still gonna use them ! Works way better by sharpening with a nice tip.
