## Summary description

Faber-Castell 116490 is a set of 100 watercolour pencils in assorted colours.

## Long description

Faber-Castell Colour pencil set 116490 — Watercolour pencils, assorted colours, 100 pcs is a tin containing 100 Black Edition watercolour pencils with supersoft, highly pigmented leads. The pencils lay down smooth, vibrant colour and can be used dry or blended with water to create wash and watercolor effects. Their ergonomic triangular shape supports a natural grip for comfortable drawing and painting over long sessions.
Advantages
The supersoft lead delivers rich, brilliant colours and extra-smooth colour laydown, allowing for seamless layering and blending. The leads are SV-bonded for increased break-resistance, and the pencils are made from sustainably sourced wood. The black finish on the pencils and tin gives a uniform appearance while the set of 100 provides an extensive palette for detailed or large-scale work.
Suitable for
Artists and illustrators working with coloured pencils and mixed media
Students and art classes needing a wide range of colours
Hobbyists and crafters creating cards, sketches or coloured drawings
Techniques combining dry pencil work and water-based blending
When it may not be suitable
This tin is focused on watercolour-capable coloured pencils rather than conventional wax-only pencils; users seeking exclusively oil-based or wax crayons may prefer a different product. If you need individual replacement pencils of a specific colour rather than a large assorted tin, buying single colours or smaller curated sets could be more practical.
Key specifications
Set contents: 100 watercolour pencils in assorted colours
Lead type: supersoft, highly pigmented, water-soluble
Shape: ergonomic triangular shaft
Finish: black wooden casing and black metal tin
Break-resistance: SV bonding for improved durability
Suitable surfaces: light, coloured and dark paper
Wood source: certified sustainable forestry
How to use
Use the pencils dry for crisp lines, shading and layering; apply light or heavy pressure to vary intensity. For watercolour effects, lay down colour on paper designed for wet media, then activate and blend the pigment using a damp brush or water brush. The triangular shape helps maintain a comfortable grip; sharpen with a standard pencil sharpener suitable for watercolour pencils.
What to consider before purchase
Intended technique: dry coloured-pencil work vs. water-based blending
Paper type: use heavier or mixed-media paper for best watercolour results
Need for individual colours or a large assorted palette
Storage: tin provides compact storage but is not a substitute for a pencil case if you need to transport individual pencils frequently
Usage recommendations
For watercolor effects, apply layers of dry colour and then blend selectively with a damp brush; test on scrap paper to judge dilution and pigment flow before working on the final piece.
