Just found your channel. What a beautiful marbel. You're very talented, Deal. I have these pencils and it is gratifying to know that you and other reviewers are as impressed as I am. Just wish they had more colors and names on the pencils.
It was so cool watching that marble "come to life". I got connected to your video by searching for a review on these pencils. I happened upon them on Amazon and they just look really pretty. thank you for this demonstration
Hi Dea, love the marble video! Amazing what your talented hands can do. Thanks for the review of the pencils, I actually have them on my wish list. I have shared this video on my Arts and Crafts FB page.
I have these in my shopping cart on amazon. Loved your video and this has certainly helped me decide to get them. Looking forward to other videos on these
I bought these pencils, the Schpirerr Farben. Love them! I also have and use Prismacolor Premier and Faber Castell. These Schpirerr Farben pencils are right up in the top category! I've been impressed!
Great review. You made me buy these pencils. I love them so far. So glad I found your UA-cam channel. I saw your post on Facebook. I didn't know you did books too! Great. Look forward to seeing more and working with you maybe in the future. I think I will pull out my sketchbook and review these on my channel. Tania has been so kind. Love working with her too.
Yes she is lovely! And I guess it was peer pressure! :D Yes--I do books--not many know yet--it's my goal for 2018 to be discovered a bit more. Yes--a collaboration would be great. Hope you love those pencils! Good luck tomorrow. xo
Robin Taylor thank you! Interesting about the red. I just drew a picture of an apple using mostly red’s… And some greens and I didn’t think the Reds were lacking in any area… But now I have to go check!
Thanks for such a quick reply. I read on a review that the reds weren’t very strong. That they were more orangey. Nonetheless, I’m very excited about the set, and I know that I’m going to put the picture I’m on aside to play with these new pencils! Again, thank you.
You know what...I am going to redo the apple I did for the next video about these pencils. I appreciate the idea! Wish I could post the pic here in the comments.
As a Canadian I wonder what the shipping cost would be ..Unfortunately we are always penalized a lot when we order through amazon.ca ,I once ordered a simple food product which cost double the price of the small jar of low calorie hazelnut spread similiar to Nutella .I was so shocked since the company was in my own province yet . I had my son order it as I have never done it on my own and when the delicious spread came I saw the price and almost fell on the kitchen floor . I will check out the penc ils you are using just to see if I can put them on my wish list as I have never experienced oil based pencils..I have prismacolor and have crayola twistables and enjoy coloring as a relaxation hobby besides the enjoying watching marvelous colorists like yourself .It is so intoxicating and addictive to see you here in action and hear your inspirational tips. Thankyou so much for your encouragement Dea.
I just subscribed when I saw you were reviewing these pencils.. I bought a box about two weeks ago and I'm having trouble getting the results you are especially in blending using the white pencil. I'm beginning to think I got a box of lemons. Can you tell me what paper are you using? Thank the you for the review
bracha nolastname sure! The paper is Canson mixed media. Can you tell me what results you are having? I put down maaaany layers when I use colored pencils. If I don’t do enough when I start to blend with the white the results are not as good.
I notice an issue with the white color pencil as well. It is extremely dry compared to the other pencils in the set which I find odd. It performs more like a colorless blender. All the other colors in the set however were amazing, so I did end up keeping them😊.
First set of oil colored pencils, and the odor is slowly killing me... too many yellows of the same hue, do not like the lack of hues’ names, too much dust/ crumbs while coloring, the layering takes forever, and on sharpening the gold covering comes out in the T-gaal pencil sharpener. But they are sturdy, very reasonable, came in a cute tin, blends well with each other, and does not require much sharpening. Still on the fence about them... Happy Holidays!!❄️🎄☃️😘👍🏾🎈😊 Great drawing... TFS!
GWENNETH SIMMONS thanks for the input! I did not find them to have any type of odor...not anything that stood out from any of my other coloring supplies...and I LOVE the yellows...lush and different...I mention in the vid I feel they are stand outs actually. I agree and think they do not hold a point as well as Polychromos. What pencils are your faves?
My favs are PrismaPremiers! I did my color swatch and the barrel colors do not match the core color... several barrels are very close in color so, I am very glad I swatched them out. I also found my Derwent blender dulled the intensity of the blended colors... Which is very sad! As even after applying numerous layers, I was still seeing the white of my paper peeking through. Burnishing got rid of the issue, and that took several layers.
Colored pencils are not for the faint of heart! :D Yes I find the blenders do dull the colors, and I usually go over the top with a glaze to brighten before I am done. Thanks for the input Gwenneth--hope your holidays are happy and your New Year filled with joy! xo
It's my birthday the 29th of this month. I would love to be able to get them and may do just that and do a review of them live. I got the set of 150 Prisma colored pencils for $57 which is an awesome buy for that size set. So I guess I need to get these too and enjoy them. I am concerned how they will sharpen. Some of the pencils don't sharpen too well. I've had problems with Prisma pencils not sharpening too well at times....so frustrating. How well do these sharpen?
Candace I’m glad you asked about the sharpening! Before I did the video I actually brushed up many of the pencils with a sharpener and I had no problem with them whatsoever… And they held a point really well I think you’re gonna like them
Oh good because I actually did order a set of these pencils. If I find I really like them, I am going to use them a lot if they lay nicely like polychromo pencils. Thank you for getting back with me on this, Dea.
Just found your channel. What a beautiful marbel. You're very talented, Deal. I have these pencils and it is gratifying to know that you and other reviewers are as impressed as I am. Just wish they had more colors and names on the pencils.
I'm with you Nancy! I would love them to have a 168 set. xo

Very nice review I will have to see if they sell them here in the UK
Dea, do you know where I can get these pencils now? They seem to have quit making them!
As far as I know from my last inquiry, they are in the process of slightly repackaging and getting the new batch ready.
Dea Lenihan thank you!
They look like they really lay down well and have good color saturation do you know if they will be available open stock thank you for reviewing them
They really do. I am very impressed with them. They seem like more expensive pencils. I will check for you about UK availability.
Dea Lenihan Thank you but I am not in the UK
Sorry! Got yer comment mixed up with a response on FB. I am doing too many things at once. I’ll ask about open stock for you.

What a marvelous review and a stunning picture! I bought these Saturday and I expect them today! Is it true that there is no “real” red?
Robin Taylor thank you! Interesting about the red. I just drew a picture of an apple using mostly red’s… And some greens and I didn’t think the Reds were lacking in any area… But now I have to go check!
Robin Taylor at the end of my video I chose a red from the set to compare to Polychromos red, it seemed like a pretty true red to me👌🏻
Thanks for such a quick reply. I read on a review that the reds weren’t very strong. That they were more orangey. Nonetheless, I’m very excited about the set, and I know that I’m going to put the picture I’m on aside to play with these new pencils! Again, thank you.
You know what...I am going to redo the apple I did for the next video about these pencils. I appreciate the idea! Wish I could post the pic here in the comments.
Do these remind you of Marco Renoir's? I don't own those either, but have seen reviews on them and they look similar.
I have never used those pencils..but that is interesting. I'll have to look to see if they are also oil based.
do you need to spray with a fixative or anything to keep colors from smearing? these are a fantastic price!
They are a great price LeeAnn! And no--they are not dusty at all...seems like they would last.

Oh that just doesn't seem right! Too much money! I am glad you like to watch the videos and I appreciate all the comments and likes from you PP! xo
Thank you for the review of these pencils, it shows you don’t have to spend a fortune to get nice quality pencils.
Christina Kane sooo true. I love working with them.

Great idea to colour instead of doing swatches to review pencils. Great picture btw. I saw it on Instagram. 🌹
Thank you so much! I really enjoyed doing it.
Love the marble. I collect them
Oooo you do?! Any really fancy cool ones I would LOVE to see!

Bought the pencils, yes they color super BUT the smell was so strong I returned them. Similar to linseed oil.
Oh! I did not notice a smell. Interesting...I'll have to check.
Great video. Thank you.
