CARAN D'ACHE Cardboard Box with 76 Assorted Colours +2 blenders

Product Information

For animal artists, the Luminance range provides a wide range of neutral tones. Incorporating a wide range of browns and greys which animal artists use regularly, they provide a useful selection of 'barely there' colour tints such as Buff Titanium (801) and Silver grey (002), through to the deeper tones like Sepia (407) and Payne's grey (508). The pencil blender is available individually as is the full blender, but the latter is found in both sets of 76 (Tin and wooden box)

The selection of colour is subjective and the reviewer has chosen colour by looking at the physical coloured pencil swatches. Nevertheless, you may find that particular colours belong in different colour family groups. You can read about how the colour analysis was done in this disclaimer. I wonder how much research has gone into the colour selection as they offer a great range ofpale tones and bright, vibrant colours.There are very few pencil ranges that offer such subtle tones of browns and greys, perfect for pet & portraiture work which is the basis of the majority of my pencil work. I also like the fact that they make these pencils with cedar wood that is FSC certified making them a very eco-friendly pencil range" So, if you’ve make your own charts – that’s great. But – as is practical, you might also have your charts in one physical place while you draw in another. You need to have access to the colours where you are – hopefully, you’ll be there with internet access and your mobile, tablet or laptop. Interactive Luminance colour chart
