Colored Pencils Keyroad KR971756 — metallic finish, 12 pieces

Keyroad KR971756 metallic colored pencils set contains twelve wood-cased pencils formulated to deliver reflective, shimmering strokes suitable for drawing, sketching and decorative projects. The metallic pigments produce visible highlights on paper and common craft surfaces, allowing controlled application of metallic effects in illustrations, cards, school assignments and hobby crafts where a subtle sheen or pronounced shimmer is required.

Advantages

These colored pencils combine a traditional wood casing with a metallic pigment core that lays down consistent, light-reflective color. The pencil leads are designed for smooth application and layering, enabling both fine detail and broader strokes. The metallic finish enhances visual contrast on both light and dark papers and supports mixed-media techniques when combined with other dry media. Their compact 12-piece format offers a basic but versatile palette for decorative accents and everyday creative tasks.

• Illustration and sketching with metallic highlights

How to use

Sharpen pencils to an appropriate point for the desired line width. Apply with light pressure for translucent metallic sheen or increase pressure for denser, more reflective coverage. Layer colors progressively to build intensity or blend adjacent strokes using gentle cross-hatching or burnishing with a colorless blender pencil. Use on clean, dry paper or craft surfaces; test on a scrap sheet to assess color reflectivity and layering behavior before working on a final piece.

Usage recommendations

Store pencils horizontally to reduce breakage risk and keep leads intact. For fine details, sharpen carefully and avoid excessive force; for broader metallic fills, use a slightly blunter point and multiple light passes rather than a single heavy stroke. When combining with wet media, apply metallic pencils after the surface is dry to preserve the reflective finish.
