NEW! Brutfuner 520 Colored Pencils Honest Review
I have had a lot of requeststo review this set of colored pencils since I posted my review o the Brutfuner Square pencils last month, you can see my review of those here https://youtu.be/N6Av_C-Bz3g
Shortly after that the Anstal stationary shop reached out to me to see if I would like the complete 520 Brutfuner set to review, here is a link to the set in their shop (differnt sized sets are available) https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002655781556.html?spm=5261.ProductManageOnline.0.0.3aba4edfJg4kZ6
If you want to see how they were packaged you can view my unboxing here: https://youtu.be/2q97rqmzUCg
And here is a tutoril on how I made the pencil rack I showed in this video: https://youtu.be/iE_vLKxkLIc
This set is humoungous! It might be right for you but it might not. Let's break it down and see!
Pros:
*Great variety of colors including pastels, neon and metallics
*Centered cores, straight barrel, nice build construction (3.3mm lead in 7.5mm body)
*Sharpens well to a fine point (lead is harder than Prismacolor, it is similar to Arteza and Deli/Markart pencils)
*Layers well
*Holds a point well
*blends with water or OMS
*Set came well packaged to protect from breakage and package is reusable for storage
Cons:
*Lots or near-identical colors
*The color numbers are difficult to read on the barrel
*Pencils are inconsistent in laydown, some are rich and pigmented and some are weaker and streaky
*Price
*Diffucult to blend
What would be the best use of this set:
*Classroom-the harder leads will be more resistant to breaks from droppage and the many similar colors mean several people could share this set and not want for a color or have to wait for one.
*rubber stampers or adult coloring book enthusists who need a sharp point and variety of colors for fine details.
*Studio decor, it is a pretty set of pencils to disply in jars or a rack
*As a design tool for color picking (the colored barrels can be used as color swatches)
*photo props
*as a cllectors item as it is the largest set I have ever heard of.
Bottom Line: I can't say if this set is for you. It's a lot of money to spend for a budget quality pencil and for that money you can buy a profesional quality set that meets your exact specifications that would have replacement colors availabe. What do you think?
