I hope that prismacolor never eliminates their metallic gold and silver (their bronze is a regular color, not a metallic) or neon pencils because I love using them! The prismacolor gold is, I think, the most realistic gold out there. The neons are wonderful for injecting light into a drawing, note: a good example is that lion drawing on one of the pencil kits for a very fancy example. In my everyday journal I use neon pencils to draw a sun if it is sunny that day and enjoy the color pencil practice of drawing spheres with the prismacolor neons. I have found that after watching/listening to utube videos on color penciling for almost 14 years, we have a tendency to think if we don't use it then maybe others don't either. I know there are others who say get rid of the neons and metallics, but I try and put it out there that some of us love and use them on a regular basis. I agree with prismacolor going downhill when the company changed hands back in around 2012, I believe. It really is a shame cause prismacolors before all the utube coloring hoopla began, were the creme de la creme of the art world in America. There weren't many options, certiainly not hundreds of sets of cheaper pencil sets available today back then. It seems the core of prismacolors are still pretty much the same, but the wood they use is just awful! It has been common practice for some time now that when any kind of company changes hands, they are most likely to make some undesirable changes in order to save $$ usually. It's like they have to "learn their lesson"--if they ever choose to--that they should not try to make those changes because they will alienate their original customers.

Please bring on the coloring books. This video was so enjoyable and informative! Love all your insights on the pencils, and seeing everyone’s pencil, pen, and book collections. Thank you for sharing!

I absolutely want to see your coloring book collection! and ty for the tip about the tricolor pen. I always thought it was more targeted towards sketchbook work, but now you convinced me to get them for actual coloring work. Ty have nice day!

Hi, Derwent chromaflow 150 colors set, just announced, I start to save for the set (not full price release)

Very interesting and detailed video Love watching it

I like the idea of the storybook coloring pages. Didn't realize that ship was the same that landed on the other pag. I will have to consider that in future colors for that book and others.

I’d love to see your coloring books and even your whole studio area if you felt comfortable. I enjoy your channel!
