Shuttle Art 80 Colours Professional Colouring Pencils, Soft Core Coloured Pencil Set with 1 Colouring Book,1 Sketch Pad, 2 Sharpener, 1 Pencil Extender, Perfect for Artists Adult Beginners Drawing

Value for money 10/10. This is an amazing price for such a complete colouring experience, all its missing is a rubber. After using your pencil of choice it leaves a wrather shiny finish on the paper. For the smoothness of the pencil I would say it is a bit rough but this could depend on the paper you use. Wonderful range of colours, for such a good price you get an huge amount of shades, and even metallic ones too! When using them in the colouring book given with the set, it gives a much smoother sensation. Compared to Faber Castle Polychrome pencils these are of equal quality and an excellent product to buy instead of spending over £100 on some colouring pencils. In this kit you get: colouring book, sketch pad (100 GSM), 4 sharpeners, 2 pencil extenders and your 174 pencils in a metal tin. The colours lay down really nicely on the sketch pad and colouring book given. The shape of the pencils mean that your hands won't hurt as much whilst using them as they are a rounded shape instead of hexagonal, like a regular pencil. The tin provides amazing protection for the pencils and there is no need to switch over to a fabric pencil case, as the trays inside are easy to remove with slots to hold them. Overall I would say this product is amazing and it is hard to believe that pencils of such cheap price can be such good quality, but they are. I 100% recommend this product if you are looking for some colouring pencils. :)

Bought these to replace some old Derwent Studio pencils I've had for an aeon. The quality is good and the blending capability is excellent. As I was shading the little boxes on the DIY colour chart that comes with the set I found myself smiling. I think some of the shades are a little close to one another so there could be fewer pencils and the pencils as laid out in the trays don't all correspond to the chart so some rearranging is necessary if you want to use the chart for quick reference. The only real minus if there is one, is that the numbers and colour names are printed in reflective silver making it difficult to read quickly. Especially if like me your eyesight isn't that great. and that's where having the pencils sorted according to the chart comes in handy. As far as the leads go, they're pigment rich, soft enough that you can get some really nice blends going on. but hard enough that you don't use the entire pencil trying to fill in a block of colour. As with all colouring pencils their can be a little bit of streaking. I've had that with super expensive pencils so it's not fault here. And really, for this price, this set is really good value for the money. The pencil sharpeners are decent enough, the insert trays aren't flimsy and the pencils are a good diameter as are the leads. I was worried I'd be buying an inferior product but I'm very happy with these pencils. There really isn't any point spending out on more expensive products from the big name manufacturers with something as good as this for such a decent price. The tin these come is good enough, (although I would suggest to the manufacturer that hinged lid would be preferable), but you don't need to go spending out on a wooden case set unless you plan on field trips to sketch waterfalls and mountains. So in short, yes, these can give you results like the product images show. Take your time to organise the trays properly and fill in the DIY colour chart and you can't go wrong. Big thumbs up from me.

I bought these for myself for my adult colouring books. They are a great set of pencils with a large variety/range of colours. I loved that you got a DIY colour chart in the box . I arranged my pencils in the trays (see pictures)to match the colour chart this will make it easier to find the pencils I want to use after checking the colour chart. The pencils go onto paper smoothly, no scratchiness (see picture) the colours are vivid and nice. The pencils come in a nice case with a handle for storage and transportation. The pencils were all sharpened and ready to use. The lead is very soft and they do break easily when sharpened - I will be investing in a better pencil sharpner. I was missing one colour middle yellowish green number 168 and received 2 × fresh green number 009 instead - this wasn't a huge problem for me. Overall I would recommend these pencils, good value for money, nice presentation and storage, great range of colours. For me as a beginner to adult colouring they worked perfectly. I just like to colour and have no experience of blending, shading or other advanced techniques. Don't know if they would be suitable for a more advanced colourer or artist. I would definitely buy these pencils again.

Really impressed with this set! The pencils are smooth and easy to blend, with a huge range of vibrant colors that cover everything I need for sketching and coloring. The set also comes with a sketchbook, coloring book, sharpeners, and even a pencil extender, which makes it feel like great value for money. They’re perfect for relaxing coloring sessions but also work well for more detailed drawings. The pencils don’t break easily when sharpening, which is a big plus. Honestly, it’s a fantastic kit whether you’re a beginner or just want a nice variety of colors to play around with.

An excellent set of 138 coloured pencils. Easy to handle and use, giving a smooth application of colour. (Okay the pigment density is probably not quite as great as for professional grade pencils such as Polychromos but it's still pretty good when you consider you're paying GPP 31.00 for 138 pencils whereas for Polychromos you pay GBP157.00 for 120!) Also, I suspect the lightfastness is not that great but unless you're going to sell your work these are fine. I like the nice, clear, large labelling on the pencils which I can read easily. (Am I the only person who needs a magnifying glass to read the names on Prismacolour pencils?) You get a decent colour chart (see photo) and I have re-ordered the pencils in the trays in the order that they are on the colour chart (see photo). The plastic trays provided are quite a tight fit - not sure how long I will keep the pencils in these. Good selection of colours. A few quibbles: "Nude" is not the name of a colour (manufacturer please note) as it would depend on skin tone; and FYI, Cadmium Yellow does not have a greenish cast. The so-called "metallic" colours are just a desaturated version of the base colour and are quite useful (I imagine they're called metallic for marketing purposes; if you think colouring an object with the metallic gold pencil will make it look like real gold, you're in for a shock! Metallic surfaces look "metallic" because of the reflections.) Well designed packaging - a nice tin inside a carboard box - hopefully this will protect the pencil leads against breakage during transport. The sketch pad (30 sheets, 100 gsm) and colouring book are just a shade smaller than A5, The colouring book has printing on both sides of the page but the paper is good quality so bleed-through shouldn't be much of a problem. Overall: excellent value for money.

As an amateur artist I am more interested in good-enough coloured pencils than top-rated (expensive) ones. No Prismacolor, Polychromos or Luminance pencils are going to make me any better than I am. These Shuttle Art (136 set) pencils are lovely. They're well-pigmented, lay down well and blend nicely. The biggest bonus for me though is..... ...OK, I'm hard to please - Amazon will be pleased to know I have, at last, found a set that I will not be returning! I want to be able to read the colour name and/or number without having to get the magnifying glass out. What a breath of fresh air these Shuttle Art pencils are! It's just as well because they weren't set out in the same order as the colour chart, so took a bit of searching. A small downside is that the wood is soft enough to not escape from my Derwent hand-crank sharpener unscathed. It's an aesthetic thing really, I just use a manual sharpener instead. I have read reviews about the leads breaking. I only had one broken lead that broke when I swatched, and one missing its lead completely. However, both sharpened and neither broke afterwards so I put one down to transportation and the other to the quality-controller not noticing it. But for 136 pencils of this quality for under £20 I am certainly not going to complain about such trivialities, or leave anything but a 5-star rating.

たくさんの色が入っていて、大喜びです。

Good product. Timely delivery

Brilliant colours for beginners

Ik heb ze meteen uitgeprobeerd in een disney kleurboek van hachette heroes en ze doen het super op fit papier, geen krasserig gevoel, niet te vet, en een fijne punt voor details , die bij mij nog niet gebroken zijn, laten zich heel goed laag over laag aanbrengen

Good product for beginners and advanced people. Product packing: "Excellent" Product delivery time: "Good"( Delivery takes a few days, as this product gets shipped from a different country) Value for money: "OKAY" ** Adding a few more bugs, we can get 260 Coloured pencils set, instead of 172 set** -Thanks
