The Arteza were my least favorite, too. They were my first brand years ago, and I thought I just hated watercolor pencils. Turns out I only hate Arteza watercolor pencils.
This is the pencil sharpener that I use www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MGRF1ML?ie=UTF8&th=1&linkCode=ll1&tag=myartsupplyob-20&linkId=a25e57fa7ae4058e5ffa9dda55945eb8&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl
Thank you for this video on watercolor pencils! When you were showing the Winsor and Newton colors you mentioned that a couple were mixed. Did you use the Caran d’Ache palette to mix the colors?
I bought the Castle watercolors but the colors are pretty weak so I’m giving them to my 13 year old niece and buying the Pagos watercolors due to pricing!

Thrown away the tin?! Oh, horror of horrors! I love the tins. I prize the tins. It's all about the tins! Of course I love the pencils, too. Of course.
I know! I regret it now. 🙃
I’m so happy you said the arteza watercolours were bad, I’m returning mine and found your video for a replacement suggestion 🥰
I'm so happy I could help. ☺

Yes ☺
I use Derwent regular watercolor and love them the inktense which I have a small set but use them for painting on fabric .
