About this item

    This fits your .
  • Make sure this fits by entering your model number.
  • VERSATILE & VIBRANT – The 8mm square block combines versatility with vivid colour. Use the edge for fine details or the side to cover large surface areas quickly. Contains full range of 72 colours.
  • WATER SOLUBLE – Expand your creative possibilities. When blocks are used dry, they deliver pure, vibrant colour. For different effects, use a wet brush to lift colour directly from the block.
  • PERMANENT COLOUR – Pigments dry quickly and permanently when washed out, minimizing colour bleeding. Once dry, colours can be placed next to each other or layered, without fear of colour bleeding.
  • SURFACE VARIETY – Switch up your artistic canvas. As the colour dries permanently, it’s great on fabrics such as silk or cotton. Can also easily be used on paper. Modify the use to fit your project.
  • COLOUR CREATION – Integrated palette is great for creating colours. Make blends by mixing colours together or obtain lighter shades of one colour by adding water. Mix to create a unique work of art.
  • ACCESSORIES – For best results, combine with other Derwent products, such as Derwent Waterbrush Set, Derwent Inktense Block Spritzer and Derwent Inktense Block Grate and Shake.

Product description

Size:72 Count  |  Style:Metal Tin

Derwent Inktense Blocks are perfect for illustrators, designers, and students. The 8mm square block combines versatile function with vivid colour. Use the block edge for fine details or the side to cover large surface areas quickly. The unique water soluble pigment can be used for vibrant drawings, or used with a wet brush to lift colour directly from the block. As the pigments dry quickly, there’s no need to worry about colour bleeding. Perfect for colour layering. Plus, as the colour dries permanently, it’s great on fabrics, such as silk or cotton. It can also easily be used on paper. Modify the use to fit your next project. The integrated palette is perfect for creating custom colours. Make unique blends by mixing dry blocks together, or obtain lighter shades of the same colour by adding water. Mix to create a distinct work of art. With a heritage dating to 1832, Derwent’s innovation comes from an understanding of artists. We’ve produced a range of quality art materials, many of which are made in our British manufacturing plant.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely unique art medium, wonderful to use!
By A Christy on June 13, 2016
I saw some videos of these being used in coloring books and I loved the vivid nature of the colors they ended up with. That said, I'm not a painter or an artist and never have been. I've never drawn in my life to be honest. Even so, I decided I had to give them a try and these blocks absolutely opened up a whole new world to me. First I tried them in coloring books and you can see the results in my images. Then I decided...what the heck, let's try this...and then I painted my first ever picture.

The colors in this painting are entirely from this set with no additions. I've since ordered more colors on open stock as well as ordering the Inktense pencils for use in coloring books, plus more open stock pencils.

Be warned, once you get started with these, you may find it very hard to stop!

Edited: I just got my second set of these delivered so that I can organize all 72 colors easily for use while painting.They are as addicting as I thought they would be. You'll fall in love with painting, for sure. I've included a video too!

1.0 out of 5 stars Possibly a knockoff set? Exposed to heat/light for a long period of time?
By Christina Bindas on September 11, 2018
Derwent Inktense are already gaining fame for their incredibly vivid colors but this is a swatch test I did yesterday. I have a set of the pencils, as well, and they are smooth and *stunning* so I was incredibly excited to get the blocks... and it was a big splurge. Excited until I started trying to use them, that is.

These granulate *heavily*... More often than not, they streak.

Perhaps they were exposed to extremes in temperature or light.... Amazon sent them to me but they were shipped prior to that from another location. There was a package within a package and the outer plastic (on the tin) was not present, although the plastic on the blocks themselves were. I wonder if someone opened them and then left them exposed?

Either way, I'm going to attempt to return them or get the set exchanged.

Wish me luck. :-\
-------
Update 9/17/18

I requested an exchange and got one; the new set arrived very quickly but with the same issues. Interestingly, the outer tin was not sealed although the inner was - again - and the sticks were dusty. I'm not entirely sure the seller didn't break the seal and then reseal the blocks themselves.

I have a set of pencils (bought elsewhere) and they are fantastic. I'm not entirely sure this reseller hasn't allowed their inventory to be exposed to large amounts of heat & light... The Inktense are notoriously brilliant (neither set were) but they are *not* lightfast.

I also ordered the complete 72 set of Inktense pencils to add to the 36 that I had and they came from the same seller. They were ALSO cloudy. Very disappointing and I think I"m going to have to send ALL of them back and buy from Jerry's or Dick Blick or something.
