    Oddly specific question, but has anyone used both prismacolour pencils and Faber Castell polychromos pencils, and are you able to compare them…? Got some money to spend. I’ve always gone with prismacolours, but maybe I should change…

      I still have my Derwent from primary school. Unhelpful 😜

        I still have my Derwents and I’m still a bit afraid to use them. They are Special and only to be used for Good things. I don’t want to get in trouble for not appreciating them enough.

          Yep, do not use or you might run out. Don’t over sharpen it’s wasteful. Looking at the rack It’s very obvious which my favourite colours are.

        I bought Derwent’s as an adult. I don’t do colouring in but gee they’re pretty to look at.
