In today's video, I compare two different sets of pencils from the Derwent brand - Coloursoft and Procolour. I hope you find it helpful! Derwent Lightfast, ProColour, Coloursoft and Artists Comparison Test.
I am often asked, what the difference is between a certain group of pencils, which I am always happy to answer and love being able to help people out. Derwent PROCOLOUR pencils This line of wax based coloured pencils were launched in the UK in mid July 2017. They have a handling feel with softness somewhere between the harder Artist range and the softer Coloursoft.

Choose Your Pencil At Derwent, we sell so many different types of pencils, all with their own unique qualities, that it can become confusing about which is the best suited to your artwork requirements.
We have put together a handy guide to explain each pencil we sell, so you can find the pencil for you. Both the Derwent Artist Pencils and Derwent Coloursoft Pencils have some great positives, but they can be a bit hard or soft for certain people's needs. The Derwent Procolour pencils aim to find a happy balance between these extremes while still managing to keep the special positives of each intact.
I have the skin set of Derwent Coloursoft and the set of Derwent Drawings. The Derwent Drawings are a little softer than Coloursoft. The Coulorsoft go down on paper just a tad bit scratchier but still with a smooth lay down.
I personally prefer the Drawing set but they both have their uses! The Derwent Coloursoft Pencil is made up of a range of 72 vibrant colours, specially chosen for their richness and versatility. Coloursoft Pencils from Derwent offer strong, vibrant colour that has a velvety softness, making them perfect for mixing and blending.
