Faber Castell Black Edition Colored Pencil Review

Faber Castell Black Edition Colored Pencil Review.

In this video we take a look at the Faber Castell Black Edition Colored Pencils, a very different pencil to that of the incredibly popular Faber Castell Polychromos, but no less desirable.

I had wanted to test and review the Faber Castell Black Edition for some time, now that I finally claimed a set, I can tell you that I think you too will be impressed with the findings of my review.

I was horribly bullied all through out highschool for 8 years to the point of suicide. I know exactly what you mean when you say that your daughter is sick with anxiety going to school in the morning. There were so many times I cried and screamed begging my mother to not force me to go in the morning. Im sorry if this come off as oversharing but i just want both you and your daughter to know that she's not alone and things get much better after high school.
I feel for you as my mum was in the same position as you. Keeping her phone on, texting me throughout the school day. You sound like an amazing father keep doing what you're doing.

It's wonderful that you're there for your daughter. She'll remember your loving support all her life 💕

I'm watching your video 3 years since you posted. I just recently bought a set of 24 Black Edition and I was happy to see that they now have numbers printed on them and the Faber Castell website has the color names. I made my own chart with the names and numbers. I really like the pencils because they have some colors that I don't have in my Goldfaber set of 48. Thanks for your video.

What an amazing comment about children losing interest in art because companies do not make quality products. Thank your for bringing this to attention. We have so few devious minds working in their fields today for this exact reason; and it goes for art to mathematics to agriculture - every field. Humanity needs to make quality feasible products. And they can, and still make a good profit, most just don’t. And this is what needs to change in society. Believe it or not spiritual awakenings provide this change and growth!! May we all progress with this 💕

Amelia my heart is with you, I know all too well what bullying is like. I was tortured the majority of my school life. I am extremely proud of you for taking this big step. I feel your pain and your anxiety lean on your parents and I hope you know there are hundreds of thousands of us all over the globe cheering you on and praying for you. Harry never ever apologize for answering your childs call you are an awesome father. Thank you for the review like your position on children using them. I love to color with my grandsons.

You are such a good dad!❤ Hugs to your little girl.

Hopefully your daughter has an easier time with school. We are just online strangers but I hope she knows that we all wish her the best and that she is not alone.

Thank you very much for this good and labour-intensive review.
It is so funny. I am retired and starting to get interested in colouring books and crayons these days. When I was a child, I used to colour in books, but they were very simple.
It's so funny that the only crayons I have are the 36 Black Edition. So it is very interesting information for me that these coloured pencils are of good quality. Thanks for that. And many greetings from Germany.

If I stick to the hobby and produce something good, I will order the pack of 100.

wow, its bizarre how these pencils are marketed overseas. Brazil is the place where faber castell's childrens grade pencils are produced. we have these pencils in 12, 24 and 50 count, the 24 and 50 in plastic cases and the 12 count being in cardboard case. and the bodies are round, not triangular! and the image that is marketed for us is a nice peacock feather drawn over white and black background. a lot of us broken artists are loving these pencils because they're buttery soft compared to the classic color. i'm glad you said they are the closest thing to prismacolors, since there is no way we here in brazil can afford such material with how deep we are in recession and how our currency is very worthless near the dollar.

I agree about naming the colors. I learned with a 64 box of Crayola crayons. I learned color names and differences at a very young age: burnt umber, yellow ochre, periwinkle, yellow orange, etc. Thank you for the review. I’m hoping your daughter has a great year at school.

[stevemurray]

Great review. Very thoughtful and your reasoning is spot on. I just love the black barrel, reminds me of the black widow. Thank you for this.
Keep being the dad that you are. I know your daughter will shine through this time with you and your wife's guidance. Stay well and remain positive. Best of wishes to all your family.

Hope your daughter is feeling better, so sweet of you to be so concerned for her.

Hi! Brazilian speaking here. I bought these pencils last year, they come in at a different plastic package in Brazil. I highly suspect they were created for the Brazilian market. They're one of the bestsellers locally for coloring books for adults as well. They're really fun to play around with, nothing compared to my polychromos set or the Pablo, but I really appreciate them for drafting.

[rayvirgoe]

I have these, and they have them numbered now. You are absolutely positively right, they are beautiful colors to use. Love your review.

[karo]

Great review!
The 100 set is now available in Germany for around 40, - EUR.
I will test the lightfastness from curiosity.
I think it's an excellent option for european artists instead of buying the here totally overpriced prismacolors.

[Boobatz]

Great Dad, being there to support your daughter💚.. Best wishes for a safe and happy school year for Amelia.

Hi! These supersoft colored pencils are great. I have a set of 50. They are round and each pencil says: FSC ECO SUPERSOFT (logo) Faber Castell. They come in a plastic case. I live in Peru.

[esdrasmelo]

Here in Brazil, we have sets of 12, 24, 50, 100 besides the skintones, cold and hot tones. Their name are different (Faber Castell supersoft), the shape is round, the boxes with 24 and 50 comes with a plastic case, the 100 colors set comes with a cardboard case and with numbers to iddentify the colors. personaly, I love how this pencils work and it's a good alternative to use instead of the professional ones

[ellietodd]

It was obvious at the beginning that you were really concerned about your daughter but still wanted to keep helping your followers. Its why we watch everything you do. Best wishes for her school experience.

Love a coloured pencil review! In this sort of situation I have just stuck a bit of paper around the barrels with 1 to 24/36/48 on them and just done a swatch chart accordingly.
