I am a full time colorist, and own many if not most professional colored pencils, from Prisma, Caran De ache, Derwent, Faber Castell, Greta Color, Dick Blick, SoHo, Lyra, and Bruynzel(which are no longer available),I'am now a proud owner of a full set of these. Every brand pencil colors differently, some like the Prisma are soft and put down a lot of pigment, while others like a poly chrome, harder and apply color much softer. This pencil is a harder pencil, the colors go down fairly light. Yet it colors very smooth and even. The effects also very greatly depending on the paper you are working on. I find with hard pencils it is more difficult to achieve a layered effect, because the hard pencils tend to want to burnish. Though today I was coloring with this pencil, on a nice toothy, heavy weight paper, and these layered quit nicely. These lay the pigment down very even, and do not ' grab' the paper like some of lesser quality will. These are quite pricey,(thankfully mine were a gift). My experience with the Tom Bow markers, and now this pencil leads me to believe they produce a very high quality product. I would definitely recommend this product to others.
