STAEDTLERMars Lumograph Art Drawing Pencils, Graphite Pencils in Metal Case, Break-Resistant Bonded Lead, Grades 12B-10H, Set of 24

The media could not be loaded. I tried to include all the important bits in the video, but so far, so good. I received these today as I've recently started drawing again. I found a review from another website giving their opinion on these specific pencils and I thought I'd give them a go. The reason I bought these specifically was for the shade range it offers with dark gradient lead. I want to gove my drawings more definition than the HB, 2B, and 4B I've been using. I haven't drawn anything with these yet except for what you see in the video, but I will try to update the review once I do.For the pencils themselves: The container I like, although the metal feels as if it could scuff or bend easily, still feels a decent weight. The pencils are smooth and are not too uncomfortable to hold. They seem to sharpen fairly easily. None of them broke any lead off into the sharpener. I think that you have quite a bit of options with this range even from only using a single one because you can press to go lighter or darker. I think that I'll be happy with the darker ranges to give definition to my drawings, but we will see. I think the price point is reflecting of the product. These pencils seem strongly made. Durable. I think it would be good for beginners or seasoned artists to have. I don't like how a kneaded eraser doesn't pick up much of it so it kind of makes me weary, but we will see how to hold up on sketchbook paper and not the lightweight printer paper I used in the video. I haven't tried any other types of erasers, so it may be different. Overall, so far, I'm happy with them.

These are expensive pencils, but well worth the price. They work flawlessly for pencil art. I would recommend and will surely order a refill when I am out!

This is a great set of art drawing pencils from a reputable brand. It has 12 graphite pencils in a metal case, ranging from 6B to 4H. The pencils are high-quality and durable, and they produce smooth and consistent lines. They are also easy to sharpen and erase, and they do not break easily.I love this set because it has a variety of hardness levels, which are perfect for different drawing techniques and effects. I can use the softer pencils for shading and blending, and the harder pencils for outlining and detailing. The metal case is also convenient and sturdy, and it protects the pencils from damage and dust.This set is a good value for the money, as it is well-made and long-lasting. It is also a nice gift for any artist or sketcher. I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a quality and versatile set of art drawing pencils.

Great pencils. I am a beginner drawer and started with cheap pencils that smeared ALL OVER so I bought these. The case is nice as it acts as a holder as I draw.

I am no pencil aficionado, but I do enjoy sketching, drawing and doodling bits of art and this set works very well for my needs. The different "leads" are helpful for different parts of the drawings where different darknesses or softness is needed. They are enjoyable and useful pencils. The eraser works well, and the sharpener is heavy weight and high quality. These are good for kids, new drawers, casual artists and also professional artists.

The pencils, sharpener, and eraser came in great quality. They are just what I expected!

Muy buen producto, muy recomendado
