I read in the June "The Artist" that Derwent have improved their watercolour pencils. The main difference seems to be that the colours are richer and more intense.
I'd be interested to know if any forum members have tried them. If so, what do they think of them?
I've tried watercolour pencils in the past and never liked them. The colours were insipid and smeared badly when water was added. I'd try them again if I thought the new pencils were better.
