How to use

Select the desired pencil and sharpen to a fine or broader point depending on the required line width. Apply with light to medium pressure for even coverage; increase pressure for deeper saturation or for filling larger areas. For shading and blending, use cross-hatching or circular strokes and layer colours gradually to achieve smooth transitions. Store the pencils in a dry place and keep the set in its original packaging or a pencil case to protect the leads.

Recommendations

For best results, use a quality sharpener to avoid lead breakage and switch between sharp and blunt points as needed for detailed and broad work. Pair these pencils with medium-weight drawing paper (minimum 120 gsm) for optimal colour laydown and blending performance.
