Thank you so much for taking the time to give us such an informative video!
Now I know what to put on my Christmas wishlist 😁
I’m so glad my video was helpful. I try to be as thorough as possible so that everyone can make a decision just by watching my video, especially the blend test. They’re great to add into the original 120 set. All the colors are new and different.
I need these, my parents just don’t understand the excitement of getting a new box of pencils! Lol
Goodness! That’s why I have a Facebook group. My family just doesn’t understand either. 💕
neither does my boyfriend, lol. I just got these...
I really like my new Harmonious set. I like how they lay down even on the smooth swatch chart that came with the new set. Now I haven't blended them in a book or on a color page but absolutely love the colors. I'll definitely be getting the metallic set next.
I bought the Pasteltints that come in the case. They are still in transit but it so lovely to see how beautiful the colours are when swatches out.
I love the colors too. I hope you love these as much as I do! Happy Coloring!
I'm too excited to get these pencils. Also the Castle Art Gold - Oil Based. Thankyou so much for sharing 💜
I recently purchased the 120 set of the Gold Castle Arts pencils and I really like them, but there were some broken pencils and I emailed their customer service as there were quite a few. I received immediate response and they are replacing them. When a company shows
this kind of excellent customer service it makes me confident to buy their products and I am a happy customer and have now orderd the pastels which are once again available in the tin.
Castle Arts does have wonderful customer service. Thank you for sharing your experience.
I got the gold set too….with quite a few broken…..unfortunately they just gave a small discount on my purchase….I was a bit disappointed….
These look such lovely colours, thanks for the review Pamela, must have a look and see if they are available in the UK 💖💖
I need these, they are so beautiful...my summer holiday just started, and I ended up ordering them to enjoy in my holiday ♥ By the way the peach rose looks like peach rose to me :D
Beautiful colors I just order these colors with the case . Can’t wait too receive them after watching this review .
Thank you for sharing 💖
You will love them ♥️
Great blend test.... a lot of work, thank you. 🌟💜🍒
Just added this to the cart. I think I have every crayola pencil there is lol. Looked up the metallic set too. It looks gorgeous 🤍
The biggest problem of the collector, right? It could be worse! Pencils bring me so much joy so I know exactly how you feel. Enjoy them and make beautiful coloring pages with them. ❤
These pencils are Beautiful! I really enjoyed this video. Thank you
Thank you Pamela for another great review. I am tempted but I think I'll show some restraint(for now.) Thanks again.
I just got these pencils this last Monday. I have been using them on coloring pages with flowers and comparing them with my water based markers. They work well! The colors seem floral based(so many have flower names). I'm considering buying the metallic set also. I've the case and I am impressed with the info provided. Recommend these. The other pastel sets I have were cheaper and not worth the price .....these are. Of course these are not Holbeins but they are probably comparable to that Polish set people talk about! Love your video. 🤗
I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. I believe you’re talking about the Pastelowe colored pencils. 😀
So cute!
Thank you so much ☺
Thanks for the review! I am still trying to decide on this set.
Glad I could help!
@@PamelasPassionforPencils Thanks! I just ordered them! 😁
Thank you so much for this video. The Castle art gold, pasteltint and metallic are on my wishlist and now I decently buy them next month. I have Arteza 120 watercolor, Mendeluz, Albrecht Dürer, Polychromos and Caran d'Ache Luminance - so the Castle Art will be the last pencils I buy (until now)
The Castle Art Gold pencils are available on Amazon in the US. 72 pencils for 59.99.
i just bought them getting supplies to begin coloring been following you
Now I am excited to get my coloured pencils 😊
Enjoy them!
Thank you for doing this video, I am still waiting for mine to arrive 😀😀
You're very welcome. You will love these!
Loved this video. Thanks!!!! ❤️
I’m so glad you enjoyed it. 💕
First to say…love how you do this…🥰
😊 thank you
Castle Arts is having a wonderful sale right now!! I watch most of your videos. 🦄 Usually on the TV though so I don't comment very often. But YES .. can you please compare these macarons to the Castle Art Pasteltints? I just want to thank you for all that you do for us. You are very inspiring.
I just finished editing the comparison video today. It will be coming soon.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils You're the best. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING THAT YOU DO!!💕
I've been lemming this set in its beautiful tin but it's been out of stock for a long time ....... it's back! I just bought this set in the tin from Amazon! I 🌹🌹🌹
I doubt that I’ll get this pastel set. I already have 2 pastel sets, the Monarch set, and I have the Astra PastelLowe (colors VERY similar to Holbein colors) pencils on the way from Poland. 🤣 I own all of the Black Widow sets (the skintone sets and the Dragon set on the way), 3 Prismacolor sets (24, 132, and 150), a 36 set of Polychromos, 2 sets of the square Brutfuners, and a 100 pack and a skintone pack of Crayolas. Just too many. lol
I’m working on creating my own swatch book to put in my Etsy store. So excited!
Thank you so much for this review. I love pastel pencils. Still deciding whether to get them or not. I do have the 120 set of castle art pencils and love them.
What are your very favorite colored pencils? If they are Prismacolor what would be your next? Thank you. I love all of your videos..
Next would definitely be my Black Widows. I’m so glad you’re enjoying my videos! Happy coloring!
In Canada - we can only get the one with the case. I agree - will have to purchase a case and this will solve that - but I like the pretty cases too. Lol Going to buy soon I hope and the Metallics also.
I got told the gold castle art set is the same as the old ones for colour. But new and improved.
Yes, they’re supposed to be the same exact colors. But they’re not wax-based like the first 120 set.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils yes they are now oil.
Pamela I am getting these pencils. I'm glad for this review because not I feel better about the pencils. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
I have sooooo much trouble blending. Just doesn’t work well for me. Something I need to work on. Thanks for all of your tutorials that show stuff.
I am sure you blend your colors wonderfully already. Just keep practicing!
I have them on the way as of today!
Yay! Enjoy!
I want them! I already have the castle Art 120 and I think the pastel set will go well with them. I don’t mind these pencils. I tend to use them for details because they are smaller and harder then prismacolor and because they are a budget pencil, I don’t mind sharpening them often! Great Video!👍🏻👏🏻😘💖💝💘🇨🇦
This set would go beautifully with the 120 set. All the colors are different so they’ll fit right in. 💕
I am going to check the price of these next Friday. Maybe there will be a special.
I received my set and I think I will like them as an addition to other pencil sets.
I'll second you since I have these but didn't get a chance to swatch! 🎨😂
I noticed the scratching ss too on the periwinkle…I noticed it on the tickle pink too….but they are beautiful…
Scratchiness
The Periwinkle was fine after that first swatch. I realized while I was editing that it was the same one I used for the blend test. Maybe it was just the initial use. It's fine now and no longer scratchy at all.
Would the 120 set or the pastel set work better on the Amazon paper? What budget set works best on the Amazon paper? Very much a beginner budget drive question set!! 🤗
Yes please I would love to know what the colors mean
Thank you so much, I'm trying to expand my swatches from a little amount of Caran D'ache, Prismacolor and Artful pencils (all very soft, but I have just a few). This seems to be a good option, but I'm still a little bit confused about the difference between the not-pastel ones and these ones, I listened they (pastels) are "scratchy", is this true?
Niceeee
if i have these the brutfuner ones is ir still worth getting the castle art pastel ones
I love my Castle Arts 120 set. I purchased them on Amazon about 7 months ago, but I just discovered on their website how many different type of coloring sets they carry AND cheaper prices. I actually like them over my Prisma's sometimes. :)
Do you have a swatch chart for the 300 Kalour pencils please? I have been thinking about getting the Metalics as well as the pasteltints from castle arts as I live in the UK and every now and again on there website they have offers if you buy your pencils in a bundle.
I need a 12 Step program! I swore I wasn’t going to buy any more pencils. In fact, I actually gave some of my sets away in order to declutter. Well, that resolve has gone out the window! Last week I ordered the 180 set of Kalour, and today I ordered both the pastel tint and metallic pencils!
haha, same here. I also gave pencil sets away to declutter, had way too much. Did not help, cause I just got these and I want the new Dragon Set and Lori's Star Joy Gold. Already bought new pencil cases, lol. The addiction is real....
I am with you!
Me too except the declutter part, I don’t think I have enough pencils yet to give away lol. I saw and both it without even thinking about me.
Just for your information. You keep referring to these as budget pencils. That’s not the case here in Australia. For this set on Amazon it costs $103.63. That’s $2.15 per pencil. Compare that to what you can buy Fabre Castell polychromos for, and they are not far behind in price, so definitely not budget friendly. Thanks for sharing your swatching with us, some nice color choices!
I am in the US so I only know prices for the US. But I have heard many say that the prices are much higher in Australia and other parts of the country. How does the price on these compare to an artist-grade set in Australia?
How do the colors of these compare to the Holbein pastel colors? Tfs
I don’t own the Holbein’s so can’t compare. I’m sure you can find a swatch online somewhere if you don’t have them.
Would LOVE to know this! Been eyeing the Holbeins forever and have bought many open stock…. Do CA have open stock pencils? Thanks for such a comprehensive review! 💕
Do you plan to review the metallic set?
I have not purchased the metallic set. I purchased these as well as the new Dragon set that is out. I may review them in the future sometime.
The gold set is on Amazon as of now. The 72pc zipper case set. Not the 120pc from what I can see
@@PamelasPassionforPencils 72pc zipper case set. I didn't see the 120
I just went on Amazon to see. I’m not seeing the 120 Gold Standard set available in the US.
The Gold Standard aren't really much different than the soft touch as far as how they look when you color with them, but there are different colors in the set, even the set that has the same amount
I wonder if the play well with the Polychromos pencils. Thank you for the demo. I am putting thee on m Xmas list.
I’m not sure if you mentioned this but are the colors in this set the same as the colors in the 120?
These are all new colors. They work very well with the original 120 set. If you watched to the end where I did the blend test, I believe I mentioned it when I used both sets together.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils agh man I want them. I have the holbiens pastel set and I’m personally not really a fan. I wish I would have gotten the smaller set first. It would’ve been enough to satisfy my curiosity without me needing to purchase the others. I mean, they’re not bad pencils and I make them work with other sets but for me they haven’t been worth the money.
Thanks for quick reply
Are you able to compare these to the Pastelowe set ?
I don't have the Pastelowe set of colored pencils to compare these to them.
I don't have the CA ones but do have Pastelowe and from what I'm seeing in demos and swatches, the CA are more scratchy, waxy, and less pastel toned.
Are any of these in the basic 120 set or are they all different?
These are different. 😀
These look really pretty in the tin, but even more so when swatched. Please show us when you have used them in a picture.
I’ve started using them in a coloring book. But, I’m still testing them in different books and on different paper. I’ll update soon.
These look exactly like the Astra Pastelowe and the Indra Macarron shades. Those are all basically dupes for the Holbein pastel shades so I guess these are, too. Would love it, if anyone has any of the others, to see a comparison.
I would have to assume that quite a few of the colors are the same or similar. There are only so many pastel shades. I’m just in love with the light blue!
What is the name of the workbook? I would like to get it
Here is the link for the workbook I think you're referring to in my Etsy shop. I do have a couple workbooks now though. You can find them all in my shop etsy.me/3O63PkK
Verde is green in spanish.
Yes, I have contacted Castle Art as well, GREAT sale pricing on their website, but the gold sets ALL SOLD OUT, 72 and 120 in tins AND in pencil cases. I contacted them asking for same pricing when they come back in stock, all of a sudden, they do NOT respond to comments on their posts, nor do they comment on personal messages. Getting a bit angry now
Thanks for sharing!
Did they agree?
tere so beautelful collorslot of light colors. i dont have teme.
Who knew pencils were such an addiction? I feel like a junkie...
I know, right?? 😫 They bring me so much joy though. 🥰
Must have them, lol
I have the 120 set and would love to have these. But, on Amazon.au they're soooo expensive
Those pencils are absolutely gorgeous! Is there another way to purchase these? I am starting to hate using amazon, and I am trying to avoid using it. Is it because of the pandemic that supplies are out of stock? I'd love to know if castle arts have their own online store that delivers their art supplies in the UK if possible. Thank you for this swatch! I'll try and see if I can get my hands on these beautiful pencils.
They do have a website.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils Ah, ok, thank u! Is there a link? It's been frustrating to shop on amazon lately, and I don't even know how to find out if the supplies I need will be back in stock or not.
I'll definitely be on the lookout for any alternatives.
@@AnimeBlaze-qi4jx CZcams doesn't let people post links in comments, unfortunately! So you'll have to find the exact web address on your own, but their site is their name, castlearts. They have better pricing there than on Amazon! And free shipping! But most of the new sets are currently sold out :/
@@RestlessThoughts Ok thank u! It's nice they don't charge for the shipping tho I'll definitely check them out and see what else they offer
I guess I'll have to wait until next month to buy those pencils XD
