Faber-Castell Creative Studio Pastels Set Box X 24

For me, these work better than some of the more expensive pastels but it really depends on your style. They blend really well and don't leave harsh lines which I love, yes they're small but it means you can get a wide range for a good price and can supplement the colours you use the most often with bigger sticks.

Granddaughter loved this

Being an avid pastel painter I just had to try these half-stick Faber Castells. They delivered. For the money it is a tremendous value-for-money and the colours themselves are vivid and clear. The pastels are soft - but not too soft - they bite the paper well and are easily blended. The 72 different colours are well-thought out and serve most needs in the field. Havs tried them outdoors and they came out trumphs. All in all a fantastic set - by a well-known manufacturer - you just can't go wrong. René

Pastels are decent quality for the price. A couple of the paler colours aren't as pigmented as the rest. The white for example, which is also not a true white - it's on the ashy side. Otherwise a great range of shades that do the job. A good starter set for someone new to soft pastels or for amateur artists.

Very good, wide choice of colours (24) although I wish the greens had been a little more varied, bit on the light side for my style. Half sized pastels so easy to use without snapping, although this does mean that they are used faster and also you need 2 `swipes' if you use sideways where one swipe would have done with a full sized pastel. As you would expect with pastels your hands are going to get dirty, but I've found the residue very easy to wash off. Can be used with several different types of paper from ordinary ink jet A4 upward. Lots of dust and residue when using A4, I've found rough, 160 gsm paper works fine. Not had long enough to tell if colours are fugitive or not but they are very smooth to use and I've no reason to think they will not stay as fresh as any other pastel.

Good colours ,good coverage

Started an Art course and used these pastels. They work for me prfectly

Faber Castell are a renowned brand and these student-grade pastels are fine for what they are. But that said, there are only six colours (68 as I'm not including the two white and two black sticks) more than the largest Inscribe set (62, not including a white and black) and having both, I cannot see a difference between them regarding their quality, yet Inscribe is less expensive. (Also, it should be noted that both sets contain nigh on identical colours, which feels like a swizz. In this set, these are Light Yellow Ochre, Naples Yellow and Dark Naples Ochre, whereas in the Inscribe set there are three very similar light greens.) They feel semi hard, just as Inscribe do, they are bright, but then so are Inscribe. I wish I had saved my money and put it towards some of Faber Castell artist grade pastels - Polychromos - instead... That said, similarly to Inscribe, this is an easy set to travel with and if you want as many colours as possible for what is still an economic price, they would serve, although I would say the set is short of useful neutral tones. The sticks are barely an inch long, but they are well packaged and would be conveniently compact in a suitcase. (The box is just 25 cms x 18 cms and less than a couple of centimetres deep, with a protective sleeve that prevents the lid from inadvertently opening.)

J'essaye de me mettre à la pastel et me suis laissée tenter par ce coffret en solde (18,57€) et je ne regrette pas ! Beaucoup de couleurs proposées qui sont très belles et vives. Les pastels sont petites mais pas gênant pour moi. Elles ont l'air également solides car j'ai fais tomber le coffret de 30cm (je suis malheureusement très maladroite) et elles ont toutes tenues le choc même celle qui ont voltigées dans les airs. Hate de travailler plus amplement avec ces pastels !

適度な柔らかさで描きやすい。そして、発色が良い。

At a good price and a good variety of colors. Reasonable price and great for new pastel artists. Highly recommended

ممتازة للمبتدئين والصغار ولكن تحتاج الى ورق خاص للرسم كورق كانسون اي يجب ان يكون خشن حتى يثبت اللون عليه الوانها جميلة وواضحة
