Review of Caran d'Ache Luminance Coloured Pencils by Michelle Woollaston
2 von 2 finden das hilfreich These soft, highly pigmented pencils feature a varnished round cedar casing with a coloured cap to match the core. The colour name and number are stamped on the end (in quite small print) and all of the 76 pencils are lightfast. Included in the box are 2 colourless blending sticks. The sturdy cardboard box has foam layers with a cradle for each pencil, so they can't move around or get damaged in transit.
The pencils are mainly oil-based (using hydrogenated oil apparently) and sound quite 'chalky', like a pastel pencil, when passed over paper, but they put down rich layers of pigment with ease. They work well on many types of paper, including (like Prismacolors, which are also heavily pigmanted) black and dark coloured paper. They are capable of fairly fine detail for a soft pencil and also give lovely out-of-focus effects on coarser papers.
The colour range features a good selection of browns, greys and neutrals, reasonable blues and greens and a smaller number of yellows, oranges, reds and purples. There is only one pink. I find the set useful for animal portraits and landscapes. The colours blend and layer easily, so it is not hard to create your own colours when needed.
Luminance pencils are quite expensive, but they are a delight to use and all the colours are lightfast, making them suitable for use in artwork that will be displayed. If you are a serious artist selling work to the public, they will be worth the cost.

Prismacolor Premier pencils (set of 120) reviewed by Michelle Woollaston
These pencils are somewhat shoddily made for an artists' quality product. They have a cheap-looking finish, casing colours that don't always match the cores, quite a few off-centre cores (making them liable to break when using a sharpener) and a tendency to split a little along the seams. The old USA made Berol pencils that I bought years ago are of much better quality. The pencils are now made in Mexico by Newell Rubbermaid Office Products.
The Prismacolors have a creamy rich laydown of colour similar to other soft-core pencil brands, but the type of wax used makes layering of colour difficult. Compared to pencils like Derwent Coloursoft (which have a less slippery wax) or Faber-Castell Polychromos (which are oil-based) they don't perform well, quickly clogging the paper and making further layers impossible unless a fixative is used. The Prismacolors act almost like crayons, with a coarse appearance on the paper and difficulty in obtaining really fine detail (possible, but you have to sharpen them a lot). On the box are included recommendations about the use of blenders, solvents and an Icarus (heated) drawing biard, so the pencils may perform better when using these. They do burnish well, giving intense, glossy jewel-like colours.
The set of 150 pecils represents a good spectrum of hues and the range of greys is impressive (one of the best available). The browns and greys are nearly all lightfast (according to the chart on the Prismacolor website) but many of the other colours, especially pinks, purples and blues, are fugitive (fade when exposed to light). This is something to consider if you are creating work which will be displayed, but may not be an issue for illustration (where originals are often stored away from light) or colouring books.
To sum up, I would not recommend these pencils as a first choice if you're doing finely detailed realist art using traditional dry coloured pencil techniques. The easier to use and more aesthetically pleasing Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils perform better and most of them have good lightfastness ratings. The Prismacolor are probably now formulated to be used with the new solvent and heat-based coloured pencil painting techniques, and may also be aimed at the colouring book market.
