However 8 out of the 72 Derwent pencils keep breaking as I sharpen them.
Very disappointing...
Top reviews from other countries

Each pencil has different qualities so I mix pencils even on the same piece. I find the Colorsoft wonderful for laying down rich colour quickly and softly for beautiful backgrounds. The pencils lay colour easily even under very light pressure and the richness comes from overlaying the same or different colours. It took me a while to learn how to use these pencils as I was too heavy handed with them at first; the leds are noticibly more brittle (me being used to Faber-Castell Polychromos and Derwent Artist's pencils, which are harder than Colorsoft). Be gentle! Stroke the pencil across the paper and you can achieve AMAZING results. The pencils blend beautifully, so I don't feel deprived with only having the 36 set. I have supplemented via open stock some of the more natural greens and pale colours, which pop on black paper. In my experience these pencils lay down more like pastel pencils. They are a wax pencil, but feel dry and chalky for the first couple of layers. You only develop the creamy texture after three or four layers. I really like the feel of these pencils.
On the nagative side, they are brittle if used with heavy pressure and the cores are sometimes broken which makes some pencils seem to disolve like wet sugar cubes once you start to sharpen them!
They are expensive; but I love them.

I have a couple of slight gripes - I don't much like the red in this set because it's a bit dull tomato rather than a bright red and there's no dark green. However the pencils can be bought singly so I should be able to remedy that easily enough.

The Coloursoft are beautiful to colour with, very soft and well pigmented, they have a similar feel and finish to the Drawing pencils so the two sets work together very nicely.
