What’s the difference between a ‘drawing’ pencil and a ‘sketching’ pencil - are they both graphite?
Yes, they are both graphite. ‘Drawing’ pencils are at the harder end of the scale (H), the higher the H number the harder the graphite and the lighter the tone it will create. ‘Sketching’ pencils are softer (B) and make darker, richer tones.
-
How long are these pencils?
They are the standard 19cm in length, until sharpened of course.
-
Does this set come with a Tutorial and Guide Book?
A 5-stage detailed tutorial is included with all sets, but the Guide Book is only available with our 40, 60 and 100 piece Drawing Sets.
-
Does this set include sepia and sanguine pencils?
No, sepia and sanguine pencils are only included in our 40, 60 and 100 piece Drawing & Sketching sets.
-
Can the pencils be bought individually?
Unfortunately, we do not sell individual pencils at the moment but this is something we are considering for the future.

RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT ACROSS OUR RANGE
You’ll get more out of everything because we put more into everything.
