Have and love the Derwent set. They work beautifully over watercolor--you can't tell they're there because of the matte finish.

[@MaraAnnelisa]

You make me want the Derwent pencils even more! I love muted tones like this and the pencils seem really lovely

[@raquelsanchez9668]

I have Mondeluz of Koh i Noor, Derwent Drawing, Derwent Coloursoft and some Polychromos and two boxes of pastel pencils (Carbotello and Pitt). My favorites at the moment are Derwent Drawing. I really like drawing animals and with Derwent Drawing there are very beautiful drawings. They do not have an extensive color chart, but they are sufficient for me. I love how you can draw hair with these pencils. They are lovely. Polychromos are fantastic and I use them to draw coloring books or even other personal drawings. I handle the Drawing as if it were a brush. I paint very fast with them. It must be that I paint with watercolor and for me they are pencils that allow me to make quick strokes, like a watercolor brush would. Instead the Polychromes, I use them as what they are, some pencils. And they are slower to use. I am planning to buy the complete range of Faber Castell because the truth is that they are very very good. But with the Drawing something special happens to me. I'm in love with them. Good comparison!! Thank you. I'm using a translator, sorry my English.

[@amandawilliams7133]

Gosh what a beautiful pencil set from Derwent. That comparison of the leads in the Derwent pencils versus the Faber pencils was an eye opener for me. I have 4 sets of Derwent pencils (and I love them) but not the one you are using, it’s gorgeous! Lovely colour quality, thank you so much for posting this!

[@chedoodles]

ah, I've just been eyeing this set. I want them Derwent. such beautiful colors

[@Msboochie2]

I have this set, and they are my favorite. They are so creamy, and I love the muted colors. Derwent’s pencils overall, are generally well made and they have unique colors. Your video did a very good job of showcasing some of their best properties.

[@CherylMotherofSeven]

Very helpful blending, thank you. I like the Derwent matte finish.

[@Ane-kh3yp]

What a great comparison Alyona. I love my polychromos pencil crayons but they can be hard to use on the hands. I have added the Derwent pencils to my wish list as these would certainly be a great addition for my art supplies. The blending and shading look lovely. thank you Alyona. :)

[@WendiWells]

Thank you! I love the muted color palette of the Derwent Drawing. I wish they were available as watercolor pencils as well. I actually acquired a full, brand new set of the Derwent Drawing at an estate sale for $4 several years ago. I haven’t done much with them, but you’ve inspired me to get them out and play!

[@miklosnemeth8566]

Actually, Derwent Graphitint pencils are very similar in concept.

[@sunnyschramm9650]

got my 24 pencil-set today in my local store for only 45€ - amazon germany wants 67€ for it 🙂

[@JingleZingle]

There are better matches for the Terra cotta in PC such as Indian Red

[@marimaf6561]

One more derwent set to my shopping list. But I will also be getting the polycromos as well, I like their differences and different functions

[@karlstuck6772]

I love the uni POSCA Coloured Pencils. They can be moved by odorless thinner on the paper.

[@lisa4471]

I want to buy a derwent drawing set, i have already the Chinese white

[@brusheswithbec]

Thanks for sharing this, it was interesting to watch.

[@pennygreenfield8418]

Most interesting and helpful. Thank you 😊

[@blackimp4987]

I bought Derwent drawing set but I'm disappointed: it completely lacks some colour that are not obtainable with that set. It seems they meant this set to be a way for remapping real colours in muted and warmer version. no way to get a leaf/pea green, a cold yellow, a deep red, a saturated dark pure blue - the ink blue tends to green. Having all the images with colours remapped bring to stereotyped production. I don't find reasonable either to mix them with other different kind of pencils for integrating what's missing. They definitely must add 4 key colours

[@mariaglassman4832]

Thanks for sharing .. was eyeing this for sometime..FYI already hv full set inktense colorsoft chromaflow that’s why am debating 😂🤣

[@AlyonasWatercolourCreations]

Never too many pencils or watercolours, or acrylic inks for me! 😅🧡

[@cathycathywild5145]

merci pour ce test ca a l air d etre des crayons tres interessant pour completer les polychromos

[@cathleenhorrell2872]

Thank you. I always learn so much from these demos. I really like Derwent pencils. I began with the Derwent Studio which I still use. I also just purchased a set of Derwent Procolours. They also lay down very light. How do they compare to the Derwent Drawing (I only have the Chinese white in this set)?

[@evangelinepoe8952]

This was a great review. Thank you. I have a small tin of the polychromos. The Derwent look interesting though.

[@tcconnection]

What paper is best for the different types of colored pencils?

[@peteinuk]

I noticed on Amazon they have a 72 tub of the drawing Derwent pencils?

[@AlyonasWatercolourCreations]

Yes there is a set, but be aware the colours are repeated! So I think you get 2-3 of the same pencil depending on the colour! 😊

[@peteinuk]

@@AlyonasWatercolourCreations well that is silly and disappointing!

[@tinagarcia3571]

Why compare a wax pencil to an oil pencil. Would a like to like comparison make more sense.

[@AlyonasWatercolourCreations]

At that time I was quite new to pencils! 😉

[@B1ackDahlia767]

Polychromos are oil-based. I believe... Are the Derwent oil-based or wax-based? I use Polychromos for detail & Caran D'ache for opacity. (Layer after layer after layer & then, burnish.) 🎨💜

[@NataliejArt]

Barbra Loveless I'm pretty sure they are almost completely wax based I have the white pencil and it feels like a wax based pencil

[@raquelsanchez9668]

Wax. :)

[@lisa4471]

Polychromos are oil based and derwent drawing wax based :)

[@louizelimepips3517]

Do you have a cat? 🤭 I see the first Polychromos was chewed on. My cat does that if I don’t pay attention.

[@AlyonasWatercolourCreations]

It was my son when he was little! 😁

@@AlyonasWatercolourCreations 😂 That’s funny.
