Derwent Drawing Pencils 24 Tin ✶ Unboxing, colour swatching, first impressions

I decided to treat myself to the entire collection of 24 Derwent Drawing Pencils for Christmas! In this video I'll open them for the first time, swatch each one, and share my first impressions of them. I'll also experiment with a few of the colours to see how well they layer on top of each other. These are highly lightfast, British made pencils, with a wonderful creamy feel and texture. The colour selection in this tin is very interesting as it contains only natural, earthy, and muted colours. These are perfect for nature, landscape, and wildlife subjects, and are generally the type of colours I'm most drawn to using in my work. The range of sepia tones is great too! Here are the colours I swatched in order:

Light Sienna, Solway Blue, Ink Blue, Smoke Blue, Pale Cedar, Green Shadow, Crag Green, Olive Earth, Warm Earth, Brown Ochre, Wheat, Yellow Ochre, Sepia (Red), Mars Orange, Sanguine, Venetian Red, Terracotta, Mars Violet, Ruby Earth, Chocolate, Ivory Black, Warm Grey, Cool Grey, and Chinese White.
