What is the difference between the tin of 120 pencils and those that come in the zipcase?
The pencils are exactly the same - the rigid tin is perfect for home studio use whereas the travel zipper gives you more options and portability.
How good are these when drawing on black cartridge paper and will they work on wood if it is then sealed with varnish?
They work very well on dark papers and yes, they work well on wood and can be sealed with varnish afterwards.
How many skin tone colors are in these sets and how many shades of white and gray are there in the set?
It depends on the skin tone you are after, but there is a wide selection in both 72 and 120 sets. In the 72 set, there are three grays, one white and a black. In the 120 set, there are six grays, one white and a black.
Do the colors blend and layer easily?
Yes, they layer really well and are very blendable and creamy with or without a blender, adding real usability to your art kit.
Looking for a gift for an artist - is this a professional grade product?
Yes, our in-house artists have fully tried, tested and compared our products and so they are fully endorsed for quality and application.
Simply press the pencil end to lift it from the tray and you're ready to layer, blend and detail.

REAL CASTLE; REAL ARTIST
Mighty Bamburgh Castle in Northumberland, England, goes back to the 6th century AD and now houses the gallery where our resident artist Peter Phillips exhibits. A painter of global repute, he and his team of artists specify our art supplies, create our Guides and Tutorials, produce our videos and provide practical advice and know-how born of a lifelong love of art.

RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT ACROSS OUR RANGE
You’ll get more out of everything because we put more into everything. In our dedicated studios our artistic and technical staff test competitive brands, and where they fall short, we develop better materials – in the formulation and selection of pigments; the touch, feel and comfort in use; tools, packaging and presentation that look and work better.
