Note: they are probably overkill for children under 12 or so and I don't know if I would recommend them for colorists because they are crayons, really--you couldn't color within fine line with them. I think they will encourage me to do looser and more expressive drawing because of that, and I want to repeat, I like them very much.
ETA: they don't seem to break a lot with normal usage but they do break when you drop them! Be careful. I broke my ochre pencil today. but not too badly. and I did drop the whole set and nothing else broke.
Oh, and the pigments are all beautiful, vibrant, and quite rich. (The Aquarelle ones are *slightly* more vibrant, but barely noticeable in my opinion.)
I used these as a base and laid colored pencil on top to fill in and clean up the edges and details, and the two work seamlessly together. Since they are both wax-based, this is no surprise, but I still felt it was worth mentioning, since that means these can act as a quick color base to lay under colored pencil pieces.
I love these, and am excited to use them more!! Very much worth the money.
The crayons arrived shrink wrapped, and while the papers inside and the tin have color marks, the crayons itself came in free from breakage and cushioned with a black foam lining, so i am pleased with the arrival. (i also ordered a hardcover book, so contents came in a box) I bought from seller Noteworthy Goods.
Opening the lid flap of the tin box reveals the rainbow of crayons that lights up a joy to my inner child. The swatches of colors lay very smoothly on sketchbook paper and not waxy like Crayola crayons. These have a bit harder feel to the crayons which does not deter from tactile use, and is very buildable in pigment.
Even though these are higher priced, i believe using artist quality products makes the process of creation a pleasurable experience.
Although i feel drawn to sets with a lot of colors, the option to repurchase colors open stock makes using Neocolors feel freeing that i can use over and over, that i wish i could do with Crayola crayons.
For a smooth and even color lay out, Art Prof recommends swatching colors on a paper to smooth out the edges of the crayons.
I hope this helps those who are deciding to buy Neocolors I, who are looking for artist crayons, and wants to incorporate with mixed media or other dry mediums.
