Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Prismacolor col-erase erasable colored pencils are great for art projects. They are good for sketching and erase pretty well.

Suma erasers work well to erase the color if i need to do so. Premier picks up more of the paper texture, so if that's what you're looking for, you won't get it as much with the col-erasers. Scholar is more pigmented and waxy than col-erase but firmer...  Read More

Using different colors to separate different things. Like foreground vs background. Tuscan red is really pretty too. The colors are rich and robust.



Cons

The pencils can not be sharpened. Making sharpening difficult.

The erasable claim is so inaccurate. The eraser that comes on the end of each pencil smears the color and doesn't remove it. The colors for this are very faint and are impossible to cleanly erase.

Quality


Sharpens very well, deep pigmented colors, erasers fairly well


These are great quality and imo can be used by artists and beginners alike.


These are erasable and not as smooth


Don’t have premier expectations, and remember that using different types of pencils can serve different yet essential purposes.

Shipping


Package came within a day very fast shipping.

Packaging/appearance


Packed well and all the same length and no missing colors!


Doubtful they are lightfast as nothing indicating this on packaging.

    I wouldn’t use these as a pencil set for my actual drawing


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Excellent for sketching in to make your artwork seem less precious if you have a hard time erasing your sketch lines to fix parts of artwork in the initial stages
