Tombow61002 Mono Drawing Pencil, Combo Pack with Zero Eraser, Graphite 6-Pack, Black, 0.5mm

I oordered the set of 5 (I think) pencils because I like Tombow pencils, what sealed the deal for me was the eraser pen. I have been wanting one of these for a while but with Christmas looming up ahead I had to put my wants on the back shelf for a while...until I saw this set! What a great buy! If you tried to buy the items separately it would be quite a bit more. It doesn't sound like much but that 1-click button has been getting a work out from both me & my daughter (she pays her own bill, I don't want Dr. Phil on my back.) Then the horrifying bill comes! Watch out for that, it adds up fast! Anyway back to the order:The pencils run a bit darker or softer (however you choose to word it) then my other brands & that is not a bad thing, it is good to know though. They really lay down a nice smooth line & they blend easy.The eraser is GREAT! It is so tiny! About a quarter the size of most click eraser pens, so you can get into tiny, tiny, tight places. The only negative I can come up with is there is no extra erasers with it. The piece in the pen is only about 2" long so you may want to order more at the same time. I solved that problem by ordering 2 sets, I am now going to order some refills though. It is not the eraser that you will use to clean out a large area, it is more another drawing tool. I use it for drawing and to clean out tight areas in my finish work on a drawing. I have only used this with graphite, I don't know how it would work on colored pencil.Both are a GREAT BUY!

The Tombow Mono pencils are great. Really, all of Tombow's pencils are great, but Mono is one of their lines designed specifically for drawing and they work well for that. The leads are sturdy on even the soft pencils and you can sharpen them to very keen points without having them break off in the sharpener. One odd thing is that the set includes the range from 6B to 2H, but skips from HB to 2H without including an H pencil; so be aware of that if you really need an H hardness pencil for some reason.The Mono Zero eraser is a real treat! These things are great for adding highlights or cleaning up very small, precise areas in a drawing. You can also purchase refills to extend the eraser's useful life. Mostsmall sets of high-quality drawing pencils cost around $7-$12, and the Mono Zero eraser purchased by itself is $4-$6 depending on sales and things. Since you get a set of quality pencils AND a Mono Zero eraser, this set is a really fantastic deal.

I got these based on some web reviews and a recommendation from another pencil set review. The price didn't hurt either. These are great drawing pencils, especially for those looking to improve their skills. They sharpen easily, and didn't break once. They are also great when blending. The added eraser is awesome! It works really well when working with fine details. I definitely recommend these if you are looking for some quality pencils but aren't ready to jump into the high price tag of some other brands.

I read about the Tombow Zero Erasers on various art blogs. After also reading about their Mono graphites, I looked them up and was surprised to see how affordable this set is. The pencils are fantastic - the graphite grabs the tooth of the paper very well and erases easily (even multiple times) on Strathmore Bristol paper. (Have not tried other paper). Blends well, comparative quality to Faber Castell.

These are excellent pencils for any artist who uses graphite. They are not my favorite pencils, but with their rich tonal values, range of grades, and good availability, they are close.

When I came across the eraser, I started to buy it alone, but then found this combo pack and decided to give it a try. I'm very happy with all the pencils and the eraser.The pencils all sharpened easily with no breakage. The pencils are true to the range of hardness indicated on the pencil and deliver good gradation of darkness. All were erasable using the enclosed eraser. The amount of graphite residue left behind depended on the pencil and the amount of pressure used to draw on the paper.The photograph shows a trial pattern with each pencil and a stripe of erased area down the middle. These were drawn on paper in a Strathmore sketchbook with very toothy paper. More graphite was removed when using smoother paper. The eraser did not remove paper and there was no damage to the paper in the erased area. With such a tiny eraser head, it was easy to control the area for detail erasing. Because the eraser material is held inside a metal tube, it controls the lateral movement of the eraser during use as long as the amount of eraser material is kept small.

These are great drawing pencils. They have a good line to them and the graphite doesn't break as easily as many others I've used. As good as the pencils are, however, what I really love is the eraser that comes with this pack. I've never used one like this before. It's roughly the size of a thin pen and works like a mechanical pencil, only there's a skinny eraser inside rather than an ink or graphite cartridge.It erases cleanly and its small size makes it easy to maneuver to fix small errors in tight areas of your drawing without erasing more than you wanted to like you tend to with larger erasers. I intend to order more of these. The only downside to them is that there doesn't seem to be a way to retract the eraser once it's outside the casing.

Tested many top rated drawing pencils to see which I preferred. These tied for second overall, first for my carry along sketching

I did not want to splurge hundreds of dollars (or so it feels like) on my younger brothers newfound hobby of drawing. I bought him this pencil set, and since then he has developed the fundamentals needed to learn how to draw properly. Unlike most cheaper pencil sets, this one is actually usable! I highly recommend this to any parents/sibling trying to help out their younger one get into drawing.

The media could not be loaded. Excelente. Pouco brilho e bom nível de preto no 6b, além de um bom intervalo entre o 2h e o 6b. Madeira macia para apontar com o estilete também. A borracha complementa bem um limpa tipo.

Nothing wrong with the product but the handler failed to include taxes in their pricing. Good to know if you are buying from EU. They didn't try to rectify their misstake either.

Perfecto para hacer detalles como el cabello o la barba en un retrato a lapiz.De las mejores herramientas que puedes adquirir si te dedicas al dibujo.
