Question 1

What is the Derwent Pastel Pencil Tin 24 Colours?

Accepted Answer

It’s a 24‑colour set of soft pastel pencils with a soft pigment core, designed for smooth blending and strong colour density, packaged in a reusable tin for easy transport and storage.

Question 2

What colours are included in the 24‑colour set?

Accepted Answer

The set provides a balanced range of soft pastel colours suitable for portraits and shading, delivering a versatile palette for blending and building natural transitions.

Question 3

How do Derwent Pastel Pencils differ from regular pastels or pastel sticks?

Accepted Answer

Pastel pencils offer precise control and sharper detailing with less dust than traditional pastel sticks, making it easier to create fine lines, gradients, and delicate shading while still delivering rich pigment.

Question 4

What are some best practices for blending and layering with these pencils?

Accepted Answer

Start with light layers, gradually build colour, and use a blending tool (like a tortillon or soft cloth) to smooth transitions. Layer darker tones over lighter areas to add depth, and fix any areas with a light touch to maintain luminosity.

Question 5

What surfaces or papers work best with these pastel pencils?

Accepted Answer

Look for a toothy paper or pastel paper with good bite (textured surface) to grab the pigment. Heavier weight papers or coated surfaces may reduce grip, so a mid-to-tooth texture is generally ideal for portraits and fine shading.

Question 6

How should I sharpen and store these pencils?

Accepted Answer

Use a pencil sharpener designed for wood‑cased pencils to maintain a fine point for details. Store the pencils in the included tin with the lid on to protect the cores and keep them organized and portable.

Question 7

What does the 'low dust formula' mean for my workspace?

Accepted Answer

Low dust pastels produce less powder during application, helping keep paper and your work area neater and easier to clean up compared with traditional soft pastels.

Derwent products are generally designed with safety in mind and are widely used by professional artists. Always refer to the packaging for specific safety notes and certifications.
