FAQs

Are Prismacolor pencils good?

Yes! Prismacolor art pencils are a popular choice as they are made with high-quality pigments, as well as being easy to blend – which is great for vibrant strokes and gradients. Their lightfast nature also makes them resistant to fading and Prismacolor pencils can also be used for a range of projects, including drawings, sketches and colouring in. 

Are Prismacolor pencils better than Faber-Castell’s pencils?

It all depends on personal preference. Prismacolor pencils feature a soft and creamy wax-base which is great for superior blending and shading techniques. Faber-Castell pencils are oil based, meaning they are less creamy and more chalky, perfect for producing rich colours and harsh lines. 

Can Prismacolor pencils be easily erased?

As Prismacolor art pencils are wax-based they cannot be easily erased. However, if you use a small amount of solvent and an electric eraser, some marks can be lifted.
