I just prefer a white eraser to avoid staining the paper

I have dented the paper to get the pigment down

They are so light that you have to press hard on the paper, just so your lines are visible,but then you ruin the paper with indentations

Therefore, less paper is wasted because I don't have to print out another blank map to start over

Literally can hardly see the lines on the paper without pushing quite hard, which dents the paper

I love using erasable colored pencils for under-drawings, but way too many Col-Erase pencils contain inconsistencies in the lead that'll scratch your paper rather than laying down color

My suspicion is the paper or eraser I'm using, but it's stilL not a big deal if it doesn't erase completey, since it's so

It is impossible to get a visible mark with this on smooth or rough paper

Barely legible on rough sketch paper

but I recommended the toned paper so the colors stand out

(paper not white afterwards, but erased for artist purposes)

Doesn't work at all on my cheaper quick-sketch paper

And the color doesn't lift off the paper as well as I was hoping when I try and erase

Use it on rough paper with heavy pressure, take a sand block to it, and use an electric sharpener to transfer some graphite lubricant onto it

Mostly wax, worthless on any smooth paper

The smoother the paper, the better results

The only problem I've ever encountered with colored pencils, especially Prismacolor, is that because the wax is so wonderfully soft, it stains the paper so you have to be careful when you are laying it out

The pencil "lead" barely marks the writing paper

Even on sheet music it felt like I was trying to write on plastic; writing on a rougher paper stock didn't work well either

You don't have to press too hard or accidentally rip the very thin paper.

Once more I feel very foolish for trying again, as well as being disappointed once more.

Pencils tend to shatter a

Doesn't erase as well as I was hoping.

but they don't erase as good as I expected them too

Don't erase as you would expect.

A little bit disappointed in the quality of the wood as it breaks when sharpened
