I LOVE this very extensive colored pencil set!! It is hands-down my absolute favorite. Not only does it boast 160 different colors, in addition each color is creamy and vividly pigmented. They are reminiscent of prismacolors, though they do not blend as readily. Soft in texture without being smudgy. The set comes in a portfolio-style plastic case for storage as well. Do not hesitate to buy these if you are considering!! Truly wonderful pencils! Thanks to rank booster, i was able to sample this product at a promotional price.
