Such a beautiful full-colour-spectrum pencil set. Lovely soft contact, easy to use with lighter touch or heavier colour emphasis. Medium level blending so I used some of the watercolour and metallic colour pencil to create the aqua ice effect. I would definitely recommend this set for beginners like myself or more advanced artists. A joy to use!

I have had these before and have worn them down over the last couple of years and I have just received two more adults colouring books and thought I would treat my self to some of the best crayons out there . Very Happy with my Crayons and would recommend them to every one I know . And I got some water coulour crayons very nice

I've never used pencils and I'm pretty new to creating art at all. I googled for reviews about coloured pencils and found these. I got an extraordinary deal on them but would say they are worth the full price. The picture I've shared is the first thing I drew with the Castle set and I really enjoyed using them. They are soft, nicely pigmented and buildable. I would recommend them to anyone starting out who wants a good range of colours and nice quality.

Absolutely love my coloured pencils will have to buy more

Started to do some colouring and drawing again during lockdown, found it very relaxing but needed some better quality crayons. Castle Arts came up on Google search and am delighted with them, their service was great and the crayons are a joy to use.

I am rating the quatity poor, not beacuse of the pencils. When my package arrived the black tin that holds the pencils was very badly damaged on both sides of the tin. Luckily when I swatched out the pencils none were damaged so I have kept them. i contacted your company and I did get a fast reply. Unfortunatley I am not very technical, so would find it difficult to send a photo as suggested by your representative.
The tin must have been in a damaged condition, before it was put into the box that the crayons arrived in, as there was no damaged to the outer packaging.
Bill M.
All I can say is that I love them. I have ordered 100 gel pens both the post office sent it back to you as I forgot to attach my flat number on the from can you please find out for me and resend tham thank you for your help

I'm not an artist by any means, but the coloured pencil selection seems excellent for the price and certainly meets my needs

This is the first time that I have used Castle Art pencils. They have a wonderful creamy texture and maintain a great sharpness of point when using them. Fantastic range of colours which blend and layer wonderfully well.
They sharpen well and I have had no problem with any of the pencil casings splitting or the core breaking.
I have in the past used the high end pencils but can truly say that these are just as good.
My one and only criticism of them is that you are unable to replace single colours once your much used favourite colour has been whittled away.
I am using the set to produce some illustrations for a book at the moment and am really pleased with the results.
Fully recommend anybody to buy these whether professional or just a mere doodler.
Magdalena P.
Love the set Bought it for my 5 year old but we are sharing it now :)
paula r.
fantastic only gripe no colour swatch card in the 120 tin
Lynn L.
I already had the 72 set of these wonderful pencils and loved them, but when the 120 set was in the sale it was crazy not to buy them. They blend absolutely beautifully, the colours are fantastic such a vast choice of colours, I really love them.
So I now have 72 ‘spare’ pencils and 48 new colours, win win.
Thank you to Castle Arts for these great pencils, and to Suzanne Wimpenny Berry for suggesting them in her wonderful tutorials available on YouTube, one very happy customer.
Sharlene O.
Really great coloured pencils, vivid in colour, big variety of colours
Andrew G.
I bought this for my daughter, whom likes to draw and sketch all the time.
She was very excited by the quantity and quality of these pencils
Julie W.
Excellent quality pencils to be recommended
Jean H.
Extremely good pencils for the price, very affordable and water soluble too. I've recommended them to serveral friends now.
kelly M.
The pencils are lovely and easy to use not 'scratchy' like some have been. Lays a good colour when colouring. I have had a few pencils that have broken lead and had to sharpen a few times to get it sorted and a few marks/defects on the pencils but has no bearing on the use
Amy L.
Love these pencils and for a fabulous price deal, I will definitely be buying them again when I’ve used them all up!
Ella B.
Amazing for a first time buyer can’t wait to get more!
Emmanuella A.
Beautiful pencils
VICTORIA A.
These pencils are a dream to work with. I use pencils on canvas on top of acrylic paint layers and these were easy to blend. The variety of colours is excellent. Absolutely my favourite brand. Highly recommend for all artists out there!
Sue K.
I was a bit sceptical because they seemed so cheap but I have to say that they are brilliant and lots of lovely colours. Very easy to use and they didn't break when I needed to sharpen them.
Overall I am very impressed.
Hazel Rosetta M.
I love the soft touch pencils also all the colours. I also like the box and the picture on the front.
Anne G.
Good range of art equipment for beginners and beyond. I purchased some coloured pencils which were much better quality than I expected for the price and I’m really enjoying experimenting using different paper textures. Delivery was quick and service impeccable from the staff when I needed help. Wouldn’t hesitate to to recommend and will in future try more of their range.
SHIRLEY E.
I live in a care home, they have started a craft class, I have never done any drawing before. So I thought I would treat myself to some pencils. I got my son to research and he found your company and the assortments of different products you produce, with a discount that made them possible for me to buy them.
The product I bought, was the 120 different coloured pencils. They are when they said they would, beautifully packaged up. They are in a lovely metal tin unit, the has all the colours listed in the lid, there are three different tray’s the lift out. The colours are beautiful to with many different shades to make blending so much easier. They will certainly see my life out and even my sons.
Thank you, very much to given me the chance to try and enjoy colouring.
I will be looking to buy the watercolour pencils for my son, when they are reduced.
Thanks you again.

The coloured pencils are actually decent! It takes a bit of getting used to, but I think they're an excelent alternative to prisma colour or polychromos. Be patient when layering them, I would recommend a good quality paper (tan if possible) as they seem to be a bit shiny when layering on normal paper.
Jasmin H.
Love these pencils!! Great quality and blendability. Only downside I would say is that I read on the FAQ that they do not sell the colours individually which is a shame as I know I will run out of white sooner rather than later! Great purchase though and excellent value for money, would definitely recommend.
Hilary B.
The pencils are such beautiful colours and so lovely to use. I shared my pencils on social media and one of my friends has already bought a set!
CAROL S.
Good value for money would definitely recommend these pencils , very quick delivery
Ross R.

Great, does and is exactly what it says on the (pencil) tin! Not as pigmented as I hoped but great as an underlayer and other pigmented pencils on top.
Rebecca A.

I researched artists reviews on the best colouring pencils and castle arts scores really highly....I bought the 120 tin set...they are wonderful; good quality and have an ease of use! I love them and would definitely recommend!
Postage was free and they arrived really quickly! Thankyou so much!
Sonia S.
I found your products by an advert but cannot remember whereon. I am absoluttely delighted with the presentaion and quality of the Soft Colour Wax Pencils so much so that I have just received my second order for the Watercolour Pencils. I have only briefly sampled them today and they are of equally impressive quality as the Soft Touch Pencils. BRAVO Castle Arts - there will be more orders I am sure and when I have completed a masterpiece I intend to join your club and upload the picture!
Linda W.
Fantastic pencils I've loved using them. Hope to try some different ones in the collection.

A set of 120 clouring pencils was a very late Christmas purchase for my daughter was bought online on the 23rd December and arrived on the 24th with the one day paid service. Still amazing that this was achieved at Christmas time.
The present was well received, she loves all the colours and likes how soft and well they work. She remarked that she would still have them when she went to college.
Great service, great price, and most importantly, great product.
Suvendu M.

clifford m.
I have been drawing and painting now for close on 30 years, but have never tried colouring pencils, except as a child in school. So was extremely surprised at how easy it was to put colour on the page, and that there was so much of it. The set has almost every colour you can think of a use for ,(could do with a few more browns and brighter whites) . I am very happy i bought this set and will have to try the watercolour pencils next . One happy customer..
