    Prismacolor Premier Verithin Colored Pencils, Assorted Colors, 36 Pencils, Pack of 1 Box (2428)

    • I love that Prismacolor pencils come numbered so that you can buy replacements.
    • I got this to go along with my soft core pencils for fine detail, The colors match exactly what comes in the soft core pencil Prismacolor sets
    • Prismacolor is the top favorite of everyone in art class.
    • Soft lead is the only reason I prefer Prismacolor, less pressure results in a lighter shade and more pressure is darker--can't easily do that with Crayola or other mid-strength lead
    • Prismacolor Premier pencils are the BEST pencils for adult coloring books and color pixel books.
    • I love Prismacolor!
    • many artists prefer prismacolor brand because the color line is the largest on the market and you can buy the replacement colors individually
    • I love the original soft Prismacolor and have used them for many years, but now find I like the verithin ones too
    • If your are into adult coloring this is the perfect set to complement your Prismacolor Soft Core pencils.
    • Prismacolor is also great for experimenting with the blending pencil
    • I absolutely love Prismacolor, but I have not been happy with *any* of their pencils lately simply due to the amount of breakage simply when trying to sharpen the pencils
    • I just wish that the case was hard, like the prismacolor soft cores and the watercolor pencils and that they came pre sharpened
    • Prismacolor did not disappoint me, yet again
    • Love the Prismacolor Verithin colored pencils!
    • My goal is to own all the Prismacolor's available, this was my first purchase!
    • I loved the prismacolor soft core pencils, so bought the verithin in order to color smaller details
    • but these are your soft prismacolor pencils very hard lead great for outlining
    • so I chose to get the soft core prismacolor after purchasing the Marcos
    • I loved the Prismacolor Soft Lead colored pencils very
    • But, as other reviewers have noted, these seem to have the same problem as the Prismacolor soft core pencils: some of them simply cannot be sharpened without repeatedly breaking
    • They arrived in perfect condition and, as usual, Prismacolor is vibrant and beautiful.
    • There is no better brand that Prismacolor
    • Spend the extra 10.00 on the really good pencils (still Prismacolor, just not the verithin), i'm really disappointed in amazon and Prismacolor for the bad service.
    • I would definitely recommend the Verithins Prismacolor Premier Pencils to anyone who colors pictures with small details and especially to artists who draw with colored pencils
    • These have very hard leads so they are not as nice as the traditional prismacolor with softer led
    • These go well with the Prismacolor soft lead pencils
    • These pencils are a wonderful supplement to Prismacolor Premiers
    • While I love Prismacolor I always have the same issue with the pencils basically becoming useless after the first time I sharpen them
    • Prismacolor just has some issues with the wood used in these pencils:Like other reviewers' statements, I have had trouble sharpening the pencils
    • Dear Prismacolor, please, line up your leads!
    • The Prismacolor are good also.
    • I'm a fan of Prismacolor colored pencils and love using them.
    • She absolutely LOVES Prismacolor!
    • another joy is that they hold their point very well and i expect them to last longer than the prismacolor ordinary premier pencils because of it.yes, add these to your set, keep a sharpener just for them and have fun!
    • Not as soft as regular prismacolor, so they hold a nice, sharp point, but still have the blendability of the softer core prismas
    • I love Prismacolor colored pencils.
    • Prismacolor Colorless Blender Marker 3533 was missing ! ? ?
    • The lead is very hard so don't expect them to perform like a Prismacolor soft pencil, their purpose is different from the soft pencil.
    • I must say I enjoy all prisma products especially prismacolor premier
    • I opened them today, found they were un-sharpened, but luckily had also bought the Prismacolor sharpener (which works perfectly on my other pencils)
    • I love Prismacolor Colored pencils.
    • As disappointed as I was with the 72-color box of Prismacolor soft-core pencils, I am pleased with these thin hard-lead pencils.
    • They sharpen easily and do not break (unlike the softer ones Prismacolor makes, which break about 90% of the time, or at least that's how it feels)
    • Prismacolor should be embarrassed.
    • Prismacolor for the price is a true winner and these verithin colored pencils are the way to go, I have used them for 15 to 20 years and I always keep many sets on hand.
    • Maybe Prismacolor will improve there quality of these Verithin pencils ??
    • they work great with outlining work I've done with the prismacolor soft core pencils
    • Though I do have some issues with Prismacolor soft cores, I have not found any other soft-core that creates the beautiful colors, shading and layerings as well as Prismacolors
    • Ease of Use and DurabilityVerithins are made of the same vibrant pigment as the Prismacolor Soft Core, but are an incredibly firm core
    • Count your contents--error was Prismacolor's, not Amazon's.
    • I'm going to try to upload a video of me sharpening one, with a Prismacolor sharpener (which they recommend using) and I get no where with the pencil
    • Prismacolor has a very good reputation for pencils, etc
    • Received my package today and began sharpening them with a prismacolor sharpener the lead and wood is breaking before I even get a point the whole reason I bought these
    • Prismacolor Premier Verithin Colored Pencils, 24 PackAbsolutely love the vibrant color of these pencils.
    • They work very well in combination with the softer Prismacolor pencils.
    • Prismacolor is great for starting enthusiasts
    • They are great pencils - their Prismacolor of course
    • They sharpen easily and do not break (unlike the softer ones Prismacolor makes, which break about 90% of the time, or at least that's how it feels)
    • It seems as though Prismacolor has a real quality control issue that they have so far apparently ignored, despite the number of complaints they have had on this one issue, going back a couple of years at least
    • The first box I sent back because the first 4 pencils out of the box just kept breaking as I sharpened and the wood wasn't smooth as I sharpened.
    • The tips don't break as easily as with some brands, and the color variety gives a wide array of color and shade choices
    • these are very good, I like them to color in tiny spaces as well as for outlining.
    • It does not hold together well (as in maybe poor adhesive?), the cores were broken when delivered and as a result I've had to sharpen quite a few of these over half way down the length of the pencil just to get a point that doesn't simply fall the hell out
    • Sometimes I'm hesitant to order online because if their dropped, they'll crack and continue to break as you sharpen them
    • I would not recommend these for children as you could very easily lose a lot of money compared to crayolas, but if you're a seasoned artist with a semi-decent grip then go for it
    • I like the feel of them in my hands as well, not as if I am going to break them, but sturdy for such thin precision
    • In the end only 6 of the pencils last and worked as they should
    • I’m obsessed with adult coloring and these are amazing for very small intricate spaces, always makes it possible to shade those small spaces as it doesn’t lay down so much color at once
    • The tip doesn't get as sharp as I would like it too
