I bought my Polychromos from a local art store in Paris. They are easy to find in France unlike Prismacolors which I have never seen. As I said on my blog, the image you saw was really my first image coloured with these pencils. I did not use anything to blend. I have a box of 36 and added 2 flesh tones that were not in the box. I also bought lots of greys, way too many, you clearly do not need to have them all. I really liked using them and really plan to do more and practise:-)! For the time being, I cannot tell you much considering that I am only just beginning. But if I can help in any way, just let me know!

They sharpen well and blend lovely with sansodor. I started with the colours i thought would use the most and then got a colour list off the net and built up the collection. I have tried prismas but prefer the polychromos. If you can't decide i would buy a couple of each and test them yourself before you commit.<br />Hugs Angie xAngiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07497554170165225102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3728505906237460450.post-80536691909681848222011-10-27T12:19:38.646+01:002011-10-27T12:19:38.646+01:00Ooops..sorry vicky pressed the wrong button...doh!...Ooops..sorry vicky pressed the wrong button...doh!!..anyway what I'm trying to say is that I bought a tin of 36 colours..but didnt use all of them..so now I buy individual ones..but I think Prismas are better..they blend better with sansodor and I get them from http://www.1buy1pencils.co.uk/ they are 99p each + p&p great fast service..and you can pick your colours that you will use most...<br />Hope that helps...if you want to know about colours give me a shout...<br />Hugs<br />Jan...xLilyPuss Cardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16140779938705792697noreply@blogger.com
