These are a must have for any sketcher or plein air painter.
I didn’t know these existed until a teacher in a class listed them in materials list. They are wonderful! There are 3 different hardnesses- HB, 4B and 8B (2of each) with a nice sharpener all in a metal box. They are so fun to use- I use a travel watercolor paintbrush to activate the areas I want and leave the areas dry that I don’t need a wash or blend. Nice quality- I recommend them and would buy them again.

Interesting and Fun Medium
I’ve been looking forward to trying water soluble graphite for a while. I am happy to say that I’m not disappointed. Derwent regular graphite pencils have been my favorite for drawing. This set, with its unique properties, may surpass them.The pencils came pre-sharpened, 2 of each shade. I really like that the cores are so big. They go on the paper nice and smooth. They blend out well with water. Once dry, adding watercolor is no problem. I will say that when planning to use wet, remember that a little goes a long way. It doesn’t take much to make shading dark. The picture shows the graphite with watercolor. It’s a good combo. My only complaint is that the tin came with a small dent in the lid. It doesn’t affect their usefulness, soo still gave 5 stars.

Great for Watercolor Artists
These pencils are great for drawing on watercolor paper for sketching out the planned painting and then, as you blend colors, they soften leaving no hard lines!

As expected from Derwent
These are good and work just as expected for water soluble graphites.

Tired of pencil marks under your watercolors?
Worth every penny! I saw this Derwent product in a YouTube video and it lived up to the hype! When wet can disappear on canvas or blend in on 300gsm paper. Equally as good as the Inktense Derwent pencils (Amazing)

Fantastic for washing over line drawings.
It is a very enjoyable experience to use a pencil to draw or sketch a line and then go over it with a wet brush.

Not super impressed
These did not perform exactly as I had hoped. They did not fade out very much when wet.
