Standard Colouring Pencils vs. Watercolour Pencils
While standard colouring pencils and watercolour pencils may look similar, they have distinct characteristics and uses:
Standard Colouring Pencils are designed for dry use, offering a wide range of colours and textures. They are ideal for layering, blending, and creating intricate details. The core is typically wax-based or oil-based, providing a smooth, consistent application.
Watercolour Pencils contain water-soluble pigments, allowing them to be used both dry and with water. When activated with a wet brush, the pigments dissolve and spread like traditional watercolour paint, creating a wash effect. This dual functionality makes watercolour pencils versatile tools for creating both detailed drawings and painterly effects.
