Description

With Derwent Inktense Pencils, you can achieve the intense colours and translucent effects you’d expect in a pen-and-ink drawing with an easy-to-control pencil.

  • You draw with them just as you would a traditional pencil, then wash over them with water to leave an ink-like effect.
  • This is permanent once dry, so you can use other media on top to create an almost limitless range of effects. There’s also a non-soluble outliner for drawing permanent outlines that won’t be affected by water.
  • As well as paper, you can use Inktense pencils on fabric, and they’re particularly stunning on silk.
  • They come in a range of 72 jewel-like, highly blendable colours.

Also available as:

Derwent Inktense Pencils Tin Set of 12 

Derwent Inktense Pencils Tin Set of 24

Derwent Inktense Pencils Tin Set of 72

15th May 2016 Reviewed by Maurice Mendelson This was very hyped by Cass, but, whilst quite good, not outstanding. I use it for making drawings, using the pencils and then washing over with water.

13th May 2016 Reviewed by Gillian Joseph I absolutely love these pencils. While they might look like watercolour pencils, the colours are more intense and once washed out with water, permanent. This means that different layering effects can be attained, because painting over the dried ink won't reactivate it.

Absolutely beautiful colours that look a little dull when applied dry to paper, but come alive when touched with a wet brush. Wish the 72-pencil set had been on such deep discount, as I can see these becoming a new addiction.

9th July 2015 Reviewed by jennifer todd There was a special offer on this product which made the pencils very good value for money. I have found them to be of very good quality and the tin is very helpful to keep them in as well. One thing I would say is that if you press the pencils down too hard onto the paper, then they can leave a mark, even once water has been added. This was the only negative, as the pencils were very easy to blend and add water too. I would recommend these pencils to anyone who is interested in using a very different type of pencil, which can make any drawing look more advanced immediately.
