I've tried a variety of different kinds of colored pencils overtime including derwent and faber castell and although these pencils are good too, I believe Prismacolored pencils are certainly the best ones on the market. These pencils with their soft leads are easier to blend then the two brands and don't come off as easy if you accidently rub your hand on your work (very important to me). They come in a lot of different sizes (12, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120) and the price tag is always quite high for colored pencils but it is something you won't regret buying. The only flaw I can tell about them is sometimes I get a pencil with flawed wood, and it just won't sharpen! I usually lose a lot of this pencil to sharpening but I manage. (this is rare) Highly recommended to everyone who loves to draw!

I have used these pencil in combination with watercolor and by themselves on illustration board and strathmore drawing paper with great results. If you are a fan of colored pencil drawing, you will enjoy the rich color and workability of Prismacolor pencils. My set did not have a colorless blender included, but I recommend getting several if you want a smooth blended result. You can also erase pretty well with an electric eraser.
