> 24 hourthese were recommended by a friend and I could not decide which size package to buy. I like that this has six pencils and frankly probably a good enough assortment of pencils. I like the little tin case to keep my pencils in and think it is a perfect size. I will probably replace my favorites one by one and continue to use the case. It is sturdy metal and has a hinged cover that snaps on tightly. The six pencils chosen include from soft to hard lead for details and shading. I would recommend this set to anyone serious about drawing. The only thing I might like better is if they were round instead of six sided. The six sided is nice because your pencils will not roll off the table but I find that round pencils are easier to sharpen without breaking. Be careful when sharpening!

> 24 hourI like both the thombow mono and mars Lumograph, you cant go wrong with either set I used medium weight 70lb drawing paper for testing both sets come with 12 pencils of the same hardness level , 4H, 3H, 2H, H, HB, F B, 2B, 3B, 4B, 5B, 6B Tombow Mono come in plastic packaging with 12 unsharpened pencils, eraser and small sharpener Mars Lumograph some with 12 pre sharpened pencils in a nice metal tin case Tombow Mono hexagon barrel is slightly larger then the Mars Lumogrph Mono has pencil grade marked on 4 of the 8 side, Mars Lumograph Is marked on all 8 mono grade is marked with gold over white, Mars is easier to see quickly marked with white over black both have a nice barrel finish both sharpen well, although mono has a slightly rougher wood after sharpening with the hand sharpener it came with. both sets feel the same on paper. very smooth with the softer grades all the way up to 2H, 3H and 4H started to feel a little scratchy on the paper as expected for the hardness. both sets blended the same overall both sets are comparable to each other. it really comes down to what you want in the set. the Tombow Mono is a bit cheaper but you also get an eraser and sharpener. the mars lumograph comes with a nice metal tin for a few $ more. Because of the nice metal tin i keep the mars Lumograph on my desk and use them at home. I have the Tombow mono set in my Derwent Travel bag with my Charcoal pencils for on the go drawing.

> 24 hourI love to draw and sketch with these pencils, but I always dread opening the case because it gives me elementary school flashbacks. You know how pencil sharpeners always had that nasty shavings smell? That’s what the case for these smells like. It is not pleasant at all, but it’s not enough to make me not enjoy the heck out of these pencils.

> 24 hourBest set of pencils I have bought so far. I tried many types. Love these. My lead has not broke once from sharpening on the softer pencils. There’s a slight shine still with the softer pencils but nothing compared to cheaper pencils I have bought. I love the long range of variety from hard to soft. The case that it comes in is weak at the hinges it popped off and bent. It’s tin. However the pencils are high quality and I’m very happy.

> 24 hourI’ve been using this pencil for over a decade, and this is must-have item for artist cause we need various sturdiness pencil like H,H2,H4 something like that to draw things in detail or express thinner or darker. So yeah this pencil set is good!
