Manga Drawing Set
Prismacolor Premier Coloured Pencils, 23 Piece Manga Set
Soft cores for colour, sharp Verithin pencils for the linework.

Manga lives on clean lines and bright, smooth colour. This set gives you both: eighteen Prismacolor Premier Soft Core pencils for skin tones, hair and colour, plus five Verithin pencils that hold a needle sharp point for outlines and detail.

★ Art Shed Staff Tip
Use a Verithin for your line art first, then colour with the Soft Core pencils. The Verithins are harder, so they will not smudge or blur when you layer soft colour over the top.
