Marco Renoir WATERCOLOR PENCILS REVIEW + Benedict Cumberbatch SpeedPaint

Описание: Here's the low down on the Marco Renoir Watercolor Pencils 48 set along with painting/drawing actor Benedict Cumberbatch in them for an upcoming art exhibit I'm involved in. The initial first half of this video is the basic review of the color chart, the packaging, and pros/cons of this set. The speed paint demo of these pencils starts at 7:23. Special thanks to the folks at Marco pencil company for sending me this great set of watercolor pencils!

PROS:
----------
Lightfast
*Safe packaging and shipment
*Great skin tones for light/medium skin
*Great earth tone variety
*Great price for the quality
*Lacquered pencils with good cedar wood casings
*Pigment dissolved well with brush-to-tip technique
*Comes with a decent round brush (although I didn't use it in the demo).

CONS:
*No color names - only numbers.
*Plastic trays (although this is common with a lot of brands, it becomes easy to spill the pencils).
*Residual marks left on paper
*Umbers and darker colors could be deeper and darker. I found this especially true with the dark brown/umber range.
*Pencil casing colors don't match the pigment on paper with the earth tone colors.

Overall rating: 3.5 out of 5
