Beautiful colors with intensity and depth. Depending upon the pressure one applies while coloring, one can create various artistic effects, and the colors blend well. Sharpens nicely. I've tried a number of different brands of wood coloring pencils, but these woodless pencils are superior to them by far. Although the color selection is great and provides enough choices for most coloring needs, I do wish that there were even more colors available, especially in a range of muted, natural, and pastel colors. When I want some of those colors, I must use my "ho-hum" wood coloring pencils.

I have used Kol-1Noor Progresso Woodless Color for years. This will be my largest amount of pencils I have bought. Great color sand they last along time. arcia brooks

I purchased a cheap set of woodless colored pencils for my wife and found out that they are cheap because the pigment load in each pencil is very low! I then found this set on Ebay,and demonstrated to myself that price does matter! This Koh-I-Noor set has very rich color and saturation when needed. Yes! You can draw lightly or heavily for what ever effect you are trying to achieve, and being that they are solid color, will make them durable and long lasting too! I highly recommend these to anyone wanting to start drawing and needing a high quality product as well!

Love how they feel in my hand. Love that there isn't a thin core of lead. Nice colours! Only drawback is that it's hard to get a good, sharpened point. It's a bit tricky - but I've figured it out. They are rather hard so if you like a good solid colour, like I do, you have to press hard. Overall - I like them - glad I have them.

I bought my first Progressos to see how they worked over a hard pastel base. They were so great that I had to buy more. They are high pigmented, creamy, blend well, and covered the pastel beautifully. I have since bought two more 24 sets. What I found is that not all Progessos are the same. My first, bought individually at an art store, were water resistant and the color names were printed on the side. The other sets were less water resistant which is important to me because I also use aquarell pencils on a painting. One set had the color names printed on the pencil and the other only had the color numbers. All pencils were equal in pigment and softness. I also have a set of Ashleigh Nicole woodless pencils which complements the color range of the Progressos and which have the same qualities as the Progressos. I am not certain of the lightfastness of the Ashleigh Nicole pencils, but this is not a real issue for me. Anything I want to protect I spray with a light-fast fixative. Both brands have a nice feel and their being wood-less gives them a more flexible use.Read full review
