Derwent Lightfast Coloured Pencils are a 100% lightfast oil-based pencil. This product was created after much research and development, and provides pencil artists with a lightfast drawing and colouring tool with a smooth texture. The pencils' core is thick and gives dense colour application, resulting in the most vibrant colour. Their smooth and creamy texture allows for effortless colour laydown, and they can even be used with oil mediums like turpentine to give a painterly effect when dissolved.
The revolutionary colour core of these pencils is manufactured from ingredients that resist colour change, so your work will remain as bright as ever and will not fade for up to 100 years under museum conditions. All colours comply with international lightfast testing standard, ASTM D-6901, and tested in Arizona, US.

Excellent
Excellent quality, price and delivery. My teacher recommended I buy certain greens for my botanical work and these are great, colours are beautiful. Perfect for layering. Go well with my polychromos too. Bromleys are professional and fast. Will be buying more again soon thank you.

I love these crayons. I have found the colours perfect for animal portraits. The crayons layer and blend beautifully.

I have tried these Lightfast pencils on Pastelmat and Fabriano Artistico paper. They are creamy, blend really well with each other and with stumps, lay pigment down well and take subsequent layers from any oil based pencil; I have used Lightfast, Polychromos and Luminance with light colours layering over dark well. I have found they are excellent at providing a light base layer for light coloured items, particularly fur. Am looking forward to trying some different techniques out with these pencils which with more colours added to the range, will be giving Luminance a run for the money in my opinion. Gteat job Derwent
