Quick Look and Unboxing | Castle Arts Harmonious Colored Pencil Set

[@lisad424]

Those are pretty colors. Castle Arts has stepped up their game. The pencils look very "fancy". That was really fast shipping! Thanks for ordering and sharing!

Finally, a good set of muted colors.

These are literally so pretty 🥰

[@vilvile]

I wonder if we could assemble a cool muted set by pulling colors from brands that sell open stock. I’m sure it would be possible to put together at least 36

[@CrystalsColorStyle]

That's so funny. My friend was saying the same thing last night that we could probably pull similar colors from the Prismacolors and Polychomos pencils. I was thinking about trying to find some dupes after I swatch them 🤔

@@CrystalsColorStyle holbein, derwent drawing and some luminance are also on the moody side, and they are sold open stock too. It would def be a great task

@@CrystalsColorStyle Great idea! Would love to see the swatch when it's done.

They look lovely but I’m trying to use what I have. I looked at my swatch charts for my Black Widows and Brutfuner macarons and pulled out the subdued colours using a similar palette to the Harmonious set. I’m pretty pleased with the picture I’ve coloured using this plan - although I still love the Harmonious tin!

Ah, so it wasn't just mine. I thought maybe my trays were inserted upside down because the numbers were all backwards...but it looks like yours were arranged the same as mine. Great video!!! The perfect quick look!

[@CrystalsColorStyle]

@sugahsweetart-tv4ti Thanks! I think that's how the Castle Arts always come arranged, same thing with the Star-Joy pencils that I can remember noticing. I think it has something to do with the direction China reads or writes? I totally knew the reason at some point but I've since forgotten 😅

They are giving me Prismacolors vibes.

[@susanwoodwardrussell9993]

I received my set on Monday and swatched them on Tuesday. Trying to decide which book to color in.

[@CrystalsColorStyle]

@susanwoodwardrussell9993 What do you think of the colors? I'm swatching them right now and do really love the whole color palette, but a lot of the colors do look like some I've seen in other sets 😩

[@susanwoodwardrussell9993]

@CrystalsColorStyle , some colors are similar to others. And, some are close in intensity. I think they swatched on the included card nicely and with a few crumbs. I also tried them on copy paper. They held their color. I haven't tried them in a color book yet . Look forward to seeing your impression.

Great Review ❤

[@JessicaGellibert]

Are they available at Amazon?

[@kellyb1765]

No, not at the moment.

[@CrystalsColorStyle]

@JessicaGellibert they're early access right now on the Castle Arts website

[@twingytwango6971]

They are soooo pretty! I have no willpower where pencils are concerned!
