Faber-CastellArt & Graphic Pitt Artist Pen Brush India Ink Pen, Earth Tones, Set Of 12, For Art, Craft, Drawing, Sketching, Home, School, University, Colouring

Great to use in artwork, gorgeous range of colours and Faber-Castell are always reliable for quality.

The main picture shows the correct colours, unlike 2 of the side pictures that look like there are mauves and pinks in this pack! The actual colours are from top to bottom raw umber, nougat, walnut brown, dark sepia, caput mortuum, indian red, sanguine, terracotta, cinnamon, green gold, earth green, chromium green opaque.The only downside is the badly designed box, which is a shame as that was one of the things I liked about this set. It is hard to open the first time you open it and the hinges at the back keep coming off the lugs. It works ok so long as you remember not to shut the box down completely at the front. I have another set in other colours with the same box problem but I still love them anyway.

These are lovely pens and colour selection is great. Just bear in mind that colours aren’t like the ones on the product photo, I have attached image of what they looks like. They are also called ‘Earth colours’ on the label on the box, not ‘autumn’.

Was recommended these as a reliable non leak through marker. Had to send back 3 times before I received a set without dry markers in. Then tried to buy some from the open stock, everyone of which was dry on arrival! Once eventually got them - what a let down. Tried doing a small picture from johanna bashfords small victories to try them out. Loads of bleed through despite the paper being very thick, almost cardboard quality. One pen ran dry after only using it for couple of minutes, all pens left streaky patchy finish, and after trying to blend 3 colours on scrap paper one of the pens tip started breaking up. So don't cover well, don't blend well, don't leave smooth finish, don't last long - assuming you actually get pens that are not dried up to start with. I tried them on several different types of paper and 3 different books and got the same results every time. So I'm sticking with my pigment pens, quill markers, ohuhu markers and my copic markers. Unfortunately I ordered a couple of sets of these, which was an expensive mistake. Gave them to my 7 year old nephew to use and even he complained how awful they are. Not happy with these at all, but unfortunately by the time I got to use them (I was away when the final lot came) it was to late to return them.

These pens are brilliant for art

Love these colours. Just what I’ve been looking for. Easy to use and great for blending. Would recommend.

As others have noted the pens arrived dried out. Probably due to the shrinkwrap having been damaged. I revived them by dipping the brush tips in water and then touching off the excess water on a paper towel. The Faber-Castell Skin Tones pack I ordered at the same time had the shrinkwrapping intact and the pens were in perfect working order.

Very nice selection of colors. I have more of these Faber Castell Pitt pens. They are amazing quality and work well in drawings. You can also blend them nicely with use of water.

I havent use them yet but I cant wait

Premetto che non sono una acquirente abituale di questa marca di prodotti, avendo fatto il salto dal materiale del supermercato a quello professionale top di gamma.Ho comprato questi pennarelli per il mio vecchio, che è un appassionato disegnatore dilettante, con un debole per Cézanne.I pennarelli si impugnano bene, e a differenza di molti altri, hanno il fusto del colore corrispondente, quindi si identificano al volo.La punta ha una flessibilità elastica, si possono fare pennellate lunghe e modulate, piccoli tocchi, tratti sottilissimi (il ché rende superflua la doppia punta).La gamma di colori, che può piacere o no, racchiude quelle tonalità praticamente introvabili nelle confezioni standard anche da 36 o 48 pezzi, che preferiscono inserire 4 arancioni simil evidenziatore ma non un giallo ocra o un terra di siena. Questa confezione include forse troppi marroni, vorrà dire che mio padre si darà alle nature morte con cacciagione e castagne.Non sono acquarellabili (un consiglio: se volete stendere un colore a secco e poi lavorarlo con il pennello, scegliete matite in legno o pastelli) ma sono sovrapponibili e si ottengono tinte diverse e sfumature.La prova è stata fatta su carta da stampante 200 gr. che ha retto abbastanza bene.Personalmente ho acquistato a parte un astuccio con i toni di blu, per il resto sento la mancanza solo di un rosso e di un giallo paglierino. Mi piacerebbe trovare su Amazon i singoli colori in vendita.In conclusione, il vecchietto ha apprezzato moltissimo, ed io in futuro mi propongo di valutare il materiale Faber Castel.

De acordo

Faber-castelle pens are my favorite. This brush set with autumn colors is perfect for my marker art book, I have used this brand for years and am never disappointed. Good coverage without bleeding through. Only wish this color scheme came in a medium point (not brush) set as well.

Marque au top pour les coloriages mystère Disney. Je n'utilise que ceux là, même si ça revient très cher pour avoir la collection complète.Je recommande !!!!
