Polychromos Swatching

Ā 

So I’ve done a huge swatch of those Polychromos coloured pencils and here it is. Ā They look good. Ā Even the cobalt green and rose carmine will end up getting used at some point. Ā Looking at the while set, I’m wondering whether there are any areas where I’m short of colours and could expand the set – after all I have 36 colours and a case with 72 slots. Ā And it’s hard to find holes. Ā Maybe at a stretch I could do with another yellow and another brown? Ā Or some more flesh tones if I go down the portrait or figure drawing route? Ā Or maybe if the set is so well balanced, I could only expand with a well balanced collection of 12-24 more colours?

But I’ve just seen that the attached photo wasn’t of my swatches so I’ve removed it. For an updated set of polychromes coloured pencil swatches, click here.
