A short video demonstrating Castle Arts Gold color pencils in use. Can these Gold pencils be used over or under black micron ink pens and are they transparent for grayscale coloring? They are fairly translucent for colored pencils (this makes them wonderful for layering), so they can be used over ink lines. They are also well suited for greyscaling. Can Gold Range color pencils be used on wood and other hard surfaces? Gold colored pencils adhere to many hard surfaces such as wood, stone, leather and metal. The pencils are permanent, but we recommend you seal your drawing with a coat or two of varnish. Can you achieve natural dry blending with Castle Gold as you would with a softer wax based pencil? Very easy to blend because of the smooth oil base; if you use a colorless blender or a stump on a test patch, you can see the color move onto the paper from the edges of the patch. What is the optimal surface on which to use these — do you recommend a particular type of paper? Most papers will do but smooth cartridge paper is our favourite. Try working on watercolor paper too — the surface has a pleasing little texture for the pencil to ‘bite’ into. How long does a single pencil typically last? Black and white typically last the longest, other colors last for three months at least, more if used lightly. Of course it all depends on how fervently you apply these pencils to your everyday art! GOLD 120 COLOR PENCILS PRESENTATION TIN EASY-LIFT PENCIL TRAYS POP-UP PENCIL SELECTION Simply press the pencil end to lift it from the tray and you're ready to layer, blend and detail. BEAUTIFUL & VIBRANT The richly pigmented, richly tinted leads layer, blend, detail and burnish to perfection. The difference with our flagship professional coloured pencil set is that the intensely pigmented cores, formulated with oil for greater hardness. Easily to sharpen, they hold their point longer, better for detail and resistance to breaking. Formulated with oil for greater hardness combined with creamy lay down, the vibrantly pigmented core within fine-grain basswood casing can be sharpened to a finer, longer-lasting point with greater resistance to breakage. Our flagship coloured pencil Gold range gives you mastery of every technique - blending by varying pressure to control density, layer upon layer; hatching, cross-hatching, contouring and stippling; or burnishing to achieve a rich sheen.
