I have always loved my SCHPIRERR FARBENS. I used to have the smaller set, now have 96. They have been around a much longer time. Yes, I am in love with the BRUTFUNER 120 squares too.

Another plus for the Schpirerr Farbens is that they are available Open Stock on Etsy. I can't remember if Pamela mentioned that. The owner of the SF Company runs the Etsy store & is happy to answer any questions about her pencils.

I have the square Brutfuner pencils and absolutely LOVE them! They lay down color so easily with almost no pressure and blend like a dream. Your video was great and showed me a lot about the Schpierr Farben, I've been thinking about getting them, but as far as budget friendly I feel they're too high prices for the number of pencils you get. I also have the 168 set of round Brutfuner pencils and they work beautifully with the square set widening the range of colors between the two sets as well, and the 168 set was even more budget friendly than the square set. Thank you for doing this video and showing the wonderful capabilities of the Brutfuner square set, so many people think they're "cheap" and they're anything but!

Wow this is a tough call if one is better than the other. They both seem to produce really lovely results. Given the number of colors available in each vs the price, it seems like the Bruts would be the most bang for the buck. But, I think the SFs look really great as well.

@tabbi8882 жыл бұрын
I love the shapirerr farben so mush, I use them in sketchbooks, where lightfastness doesn't matter. I have found that you can get very smooth blends , much better than shown, but you do need great techniques which focus on pressure variations. Great control is the most important factor to a smooth blend. Layering with the same pressure will always create lines andshe is using more of a smooching technique than a proper layering technique. If you like to smooch rather than layer the brutfuner would be a better choice , depends on your preferred technique, i personally have always preferred layering as you can get more nuances colours as the layers interact optically with each other. Also I find them to have better colour coverage , with much less graininess or clumpy built up look than brutfuner.

@PamelasPassionforPencils3 жыл бұрын
The two sets do have different colors. If you watched the video all the way through, you will see where I talked about the colors and even pointed out that you get some amazing brown shades in the Brutfuner set that you don’t get in any other set. I also showed a lot of the choices for the Reds and the pinks up close. Please let me know if you have anymore questions.

It must be hard to compare pencil sets from different brands when you can't get the exact same colors and you have to get as close as possible. However, is it just my imagination, or do you think the Schpirerr Farben pencils are more vibrant than the Brutfuner? Brutfuners are very, very good, but which is more vibrant to you?

Pamela, do you know if spirrer farben changed their formula when they made the 96 set? I have the 72 set from when they first came out but your appear to be a little more pigmented and I’m wondering if it’s just because it’s on camera or if they changed formulas. Tia.

I have not heard anything like this. Maybe it has to do with the amount of pressure or layers that were applied? They are wonderful pencils and should be pretty pigmented.
