  • I am frequently asked to explain the difference between certain pencils and as a result I have decided to dedicate an entire video series to this very question. However, perhaps the most often asked question is the difference between Derwent ProColour, Lightfast, Coloursoft and Artist.
    It is no secret my love for Derwent as a company and their products, however, despite this love for the company and its products, I always put the viewers first and deliver honest opinions and test on the products.
    In this video I have completed a botanical piece, the same image four times, each image drawn with either the Derwent Lightfast, Artists, Coloursoft or ProColour. I have of course provided links to the full and detailed reviews of each pencil, but the final images will be down to you to decided which you prefer. Also to actually find out my thoughts on how each pencil performed, check out my written breakdown over on The Art Gear Guide.

    I am not comfortable adding this to my site or CZcams channel. I receive many emails and messages asking me how people can help support The Art Gear Guide, mainly I think due to the fact that I purchase all of the supplies myself, except those sent directly from companies kind enough to do so. I have decided to add a donations button to my site, however, I feel the best way to add such a campaign is as follows, all donations made will be used to purchase art products for review, however, all products purchased using donated funds, after they have been reviewed, will be used as giveaways to subscribers of the CZcams Channel, the web site or any of the above social media platforms. This way I personally will not benefit from financial donations. I have set this channel and site up for my own enjoyment and not profitable gain. I feel with this support method, everyone wins but not in a financial.

    My Own Personal Art
    I would not exactly call myself an artist in the true sense of the word, however I absolutely love art as it has helped me immensely dealing with clinical depression due to my battle with constant chronic pain and disability. Follow the link to check out my own projects bit.ly/2qAa7BN
    Thank You
    Finally, thank you so much for all of your support, without all of you, this channel and The Art Gear Guide would simply not be the same.
    Thank you so much.

    Personally, I didn't think Coloursoft pemcils can create such level of detail, and you used different layers without solvent or OMS and they did blend beautifully. Why are they so hated? The Artist too... Lots of negative comments, but look at that pear! This video is the proof that every pencil in the right hand can do beautiful things. Bravo Harry!

    Thank you Harry for this video.I'm a french colorist and drawer enthusiast, and I have some trouble using the procolour with multiple layers and sometimes with the coloursoft for fine details. And it's really a delight to see how you manage to make a beautiful work with pencils that are so different from each others! Sorry if I made some english mistakes. Thanks again !

    You have real talent for botanical art! These and your other plant drawings are excellent. The artists pencils seem to give the most natural and subtle gradations.

    There is something soothing into watching you bring that pear to life using The Artists. Even though there are far superior pencils on the market, the vibe they give, that beautiful mallard green, the toughness of the lead which requires layering upon layering gives me such an organic and natural feeling. It's a shame I can't properly obtain them here in Romania, but I swear I'd love to indulge in them if I can get my chance.

    Fantastic video Harry. You are such a great artist. Thank you for the comparison. I was shocked to see some pencils that get bad reviews turn out so beautifully. Wow! Awesome video once again Harry. A BIG "Thank-You"

    Excellent video comparison on Derwent....the best I've ever seen in fact. Bravo! This makes me really want the lightfast pencils but the range is what holds me back. Wish they would come out with a bigger set. Thanks so much for all your hard work. This is good stuff!

    Thank you so much for this. It’s very helpful. And yes, a picture is worth a thousand words. Your work helped me decide which ones I would like to get.😊

    Harry, I'll say it again..... I think you under-estimate your talents as an artist. I can't draw freehand like this. You see your subject and know what and how to use and blend your colors. I could eat each pear. Each looked soooo good. Wish I could afford a Derwent set if pencils. I think they are fabulous. I liked the softness of the Derwent Artist. Thank you for that comparison. The UK sure makes a really nice colored artist pencil.

    Great review. Great job on the pears! You’re a very talented artist. Seeing the end result my preference of the 4 is Lightfast.
