Product Description

Faber-Castell Graphite Aquarelle Water-soluble pencils feature smooth water-soluble graphite. After drawing, simply use a wet brush to transform parts of your drawing into a wash, or dip the pencil tip in water before you draw, creating a rich, soft, and smooth line. These pencils are perfect for watercolor painting, sketches, and mixed media. The leads in the pencils are bonded to prevent breakage, and are varnish with an environmentally friendly, water-based varnish.The assorted set of 5 includes one pencil in each hardness, and a Faber-Castell No. 6 Round Watercolor Brush.

I love these aquarelle pencils!
These aquarelle graphite pencils have added a whole new dimension to my art practice. I don’t use pencil much—I love ink and watercolors—but these are awesome.They’re very smooth to use and draw just like a pencil. But when it comes time to shade, a brush dipped in some water or a water brush completely transforms the graphite into more of a watercolor experience.You can then layer in details with these pencils—wet on wet or wait for it to dry—or add sharp lines with a standard pencil.They also dissolve and paint more smoothly than most of the watercolor pencils I’ve used, which is great.I highly recommend these pencils!

J'ai utilisé ces crayon pour le portrait que j'ai posté.. excellent rapport qualité prix par rapport au concurrent (une nuance de plus.!) Le fait davoir un pinceau dédié permet de ne plus avoir à en chercher un à chaque fois.. ensuite en utilisant ces crayons de manière classique, ils ont une texture smooth ce qui les rends très agréables.. bravo Faber-Castell..!

Really nice watercolour graphite pencils, with a variety of hardnesses to choose from. Also comes with a round no 6 brush. Got them for sketching previous to watercolour painting but brilliant alone as well.
