Great for learning and casual use, but not ideal f
The Prismacolor Scholar set is a great entry-level option. While it doesn’t quite match up to professional-grade pencils, it performs impressively for the price. Ideal for students, beginners, or anyone experimenting with colored pencil techniques.
If you’re used to the buttery smoothness of Prismacolor Premier pencils, the Scholars will feel a bit drier and more resistant to blending.
These pencils aren’t designed for professional archival work, so colors may fade over time if exposed to light.
Available in sets ranging from 12 to 60 pencils, there’s a good range of vibrant, usable colors for school projects and basic illustrations.

Professional level results
I've been using the Prismacolor Scholar Colored Pencils for a few weeks now, and I'm thoroughly impressed! The pencils have a creamy texture that makes them a dream to blend, and the color payoff is incredibly rich and vibrant. I love that the leads are soft enough to create smooth transitions, but still firm enough to hold a sharp point for detailed work. The range of colors is also excellent, with some unique and nuanced shades that really make my artwork pop. Overall, I'd highly recommend these pencils to anyone looking for high-quality, versatile colored pencils that will deliver professional-level results.

Falls flat
I can see why this product was made and kind of a cool concept just falls flat to me. I have dabbled with many kinds of writing calligraphy being a big one which is kind of what I thought this product was more geared too but once opened up that is not the case. Although has an awesome pen for it the others are just standard. Especially the thicker. I found it kind of rough using them. The fill in marker is cool but pretty much a sharpie. I would say the pens/pencils write good and still inked up. Overall if wanting a convient collection this is good but just not for me.

Great set for artists and older children!
I was looking for a nice set for my 6th grader, needed more pigment for someone that has issues with pencil pressure and fine motor skills. These were really nice without breaking the bank and allowed more detail since they were softer than what I could pick up at Wal-mart without being too delicate. I did not see any quality issues with splitting or anything else that I read about in some reviews. A good sharp pencil sharpener really goes a long way these though. Think that is the key to any sharpener really. I did use an electric pencil sharpener at 1st but those can really shave off a lot with these so I got out a tiny hand 1 from this compass math set I had which worked surprising well.

The Prismacolor Scholar Colored Pencils 24-pack is an excellent choice for both beginners and seasoned artists. I’ve used them for a variety of projects, and the colors are rich and vibrant, with a smooth application that blends beautifully. The set offers a great range of shades, making it versatile for creating detailed drawings or adding depth to larger pieces. As a fan of quality art supplies, I find these pencils to be affordable yet high-performing. They’re perfect for anyone looking to elevate their artwork without breaking the bank!

Bold, Bright-unbroken!
I always have a hard time finding smooth colored pencils that are not only vibrant but blend well, color smoothly, and most importantly DONT break or aren’t broken throughout the interior of the pencil. There’s isn’t anything I find more frustrating then sharpening a colored pencil only for it to break or have broken again and again, usually (of course) it’s always my favorite color to use so I am left with little more than a nub and a pile of useless pencil. Not the Prismacolor! . They are sturdy and work very well on all kinds of different mediums. I highly recommend. I’ve included a few pieces I’ve done using the Prismacolor products but, forgive the photos as it’s incredibly hard to get a good clear picture of a piece that does it true to life justice.

Great
I’ve used prismacolor colored pencils for a long time. They are soft, pigmented and very blendable. You can use them alone or layer colors on top of each other or along side other mediums like alcohol based markers. I always tell my kids to treat them gently and to take care of them. Careful not to leave them in the heat or a hot car. It will cause the pencil color to separate from the wood and make them very difficult to use after. I personally hate colored pencils but these are life changing for any artist level!

Nice colors
I wanted some color pencils to use with my adult coloring books. I decided to try these Scholar color pencils from Prismacolor. I love the color variations you get in the pack, the colors are somewhat vibrant. They're smooth and they blend and layer nicely. These pencils are easy to sharpen and seem very durable. The case they come in can be used as a stand as well which is nice. Some negatives I found were they are more expensive than your everyday color pencils and I had a few pencils with wood fractures in them.
