Woomer Premium Colored Pencils: 3.8mm Durable Artists Soft Core, 72 Colors for Pro, Enthusiast, Single Color Available

Very good for the price point (when on sale or with a discount offered). Pigment excellent, very soft leads, similar to Prisma, not quite as crumbly though. No issues with sharpening them. Test was done on a standard coloring book page, since that is where most folks are using colored pencils these days. Considering the terrible quality of coloring book paper in most books out there, this test one included, the pencils performed amazingly well. Everything was done with only the colored pencils, except for the white spots on the feathers, which are white gel pen. I did test the use of three blending pencils (prisma, lyra and polycolor) as well as colorless blender alcohol marker - all worked very well with these pencils. On quality artist paper, these pencils are exquisite. I just swatch tested them, but performance was so good, I will be using these for sketching and artwork that is not going to be left out in the light. I doubt they are very lightfast, but that doesn't matter if you are doing art in sketch books or placing your finished pieces into a storage portfolio. Bottom line- the full cost without discount or sale is a little steep, but if you can snatch them up on sale, go for it. They are very nice and I ordered several sets at different times as sales came up since I do like them that much.

These are probably the best budget colored pencils I've seen. They're soft, smooth, and saturated. Much better color payoff and blending than than Arrtx pencils! I like these better than Chromaflow too. Definitely recommend them. I haven't had breakage issues, as long as you know how to treat soft pencils, you shouldn't have any problems.

I was very pleasantly surprised with these pencils. They’re soft. They lay down nice color and they’re inexpensive.

I'm not an artist, but I am serious about coloring. I've bought many brands of pencils, from the expensive brands to the most frugal bargain brands. These pencils in my opinion are easier to work with than the expensive brands. They are buttery soft, layer well, and the color choices are great too. I finally found a pencil that has quality and I don't have buyers guilt. They hold a point well and sharpen without breaking . I can't say enough about these amazing pencils. Woomers are the best pencil I've used in the 15 years I've colored. I think even an artist would love them. ❤️ If you're a pencil junkie, and you're considering Woomers, buy them. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

I’m a colored pencil artist and have tried every budget pencil that you can imagine in the last 20 years. I have my favorite professional brand of pencils (FC Polychromos) but tend to “save” them for my important work. For every day art, that I’m not selling, I use budget pencils. I have favorites in wax based and oil based pencils, but up until now, I really hadn’t found a set of budget pencils that really made my heart sing. That is, until the Woomer brand was introduced. I think I have gone through 3or 4 boxes of 72 pencils - that alone says it all! My only complaint is that there are only 72 colors. Well, I’ve ordered the new colors and can hardly wait until they arrive! If you haven’t tried the Woomer brand yet, you are in for a wonderful treat! These pencils are the creamiest, budget pencils on the planet. They are pigment rich; and the colors are intense. Whether you are a colorist or a serious artist, you won’t regret purchasing these pencils. Within a few strokes of these wonderful pencils, you will quickly wonder how you ever lived without them! lol. I adore these pencils. Until the new colors were released, my only complaint was I wanted more colors. I guess I’ll have to think of something else to complain about; lol. Yes these pencils are that wonderful! Y’all have a blessed and very colorful day!

UPDATE: the lightfastness results on these were pretty bad after just a few months. I've attached a photo. Great pencils to have fun with but not to display your art anywhere near a window. ..... These pencils are very smooshy similar to prismas. They layer very well. Solvents work great on them. The color range is fantastic. I highly recommend watching the review of them on Lana Gloschat's youtube channel she does the most gorgeous demo with them. I feel bad for liking these more than my polychromos but I'm pretty sure I do. They are very opaque and work well on colored paper as well. I plan on doing my own lightfastness test to see how they perform. Great job Woomer! (See update) My only complaint is that my set arrived missing a brown, #571. I received two #560s. I haven't missed it... but that might be because I have never seen it! Lol. Not really a complaint but the swatch sheet which is handy with all the info is kinda useless to me because the paper won't take the pencil pigment. All in all, I love them! Notes on the photos: The swatches pictured are done on white cotton hot press watercolor paper and canson mi teintes pastel paper. I am a fairly beginner colored pencil artist so my art is just an idea of what a beginner can do. The white paper is smooth bristol which was too smooth for any colored pencil in my opinion. The colored paper and the white flower were done on canson mi teintes.

The pencils color so soft creamy easy to color and mix shades

So happy with these pencils. They are soft and smooth to lay down, but aren't prone to breakage like the Prismas pencils do a lot. Excellent price in my opinion too, for such good quality pencils.

These Woomer colored pencils are so incredible—I’m still amazed by how good they are! For as long as I’ve used Prismacolor colored pencils, they’ve always felt like crayons to me. Don’t get me wrong, their color layering is excellent, but that crayon-like feeling just doesn’t give me the painting experience I want. That’s why these Woomer pencils have become my new favorite.​ Sure, they can’t be layered infinitely, but I usually only need to layer about 5 times, and that’s more than enough for my work. Whether I’m drawing thin lines or coloring large areas, the feel in my hand is super smooth and enjoyable. Their customer service told me they’re currently selling these at a loss and might raise the price later. That makes me want to stock up on a couple more sets for sure—this price is unbeatable! I’m also really looking forward to their upcoming 90-color set, and I’m so excited about the new 61-color one too.​ Before I placed my order, I hesitated a lot. I saw some reviews saying the pencils break easily when sharpening, and others saying they didn’t meet their expectations. But then I thought, with such a low price, why not just try them out? And I’m so glad I did! When I got the pencils, I was shocked—they break much less often than other colored pencils, whether I’m sharpening them or using them to draw.​ Also, here’s a useful tip: if your colored pencils usually break easily, try using a different sharpener. Some electric sharpeners have vibration frequencies that can easily cause some pencil leads to break—that’s basic common sense! For this price, the hand feel and quality of these pencils are amazing. I’d give them a perfect 100 out of 100 without any hesitation.​ I really don’t understand why some people in the reviews are so hard on such an affordable and high-value set of colored pencils. I truly hope Woomer can keep running their business for a long time. After all, I don’t have a high budget to keep buying Prismacolor. I love painting, but when I use Prismacolor, I sometimes go through several pencils just for one painting, which ends up costing me tens of dollars. These Woomer pencils are exactly what I need to keep pursuing my hobby without spending too much money.​

Son excelentes, bien pigmentados, si mina es resistente y gruesa. Solo que si estás acostumbrado a los lápices de colores de cera te costará acostumbraste a estos por qué son de aceite. Pero en una hoja de alto gramaje y lisa son excelentes

I like them for a budget pencils they are really good
