Metallic Pencils by Spectrum Noir (12pk)

These really pop on black paper, way more than I expected for the price. The metallic effect is smooth and doesn't drag or skip, even on the darker shades. I've already used them for two card-making sessions and they're holding up great.

I've been using these on dark cardstock for my handmade birthday cards, and the gold really pops without any smudging. The lead is soft enough for smooth laydown but holds a point well for fine details.

The shimmer on black paper is surprisingly vivid—the gold and silver really pop. They blend smoothly even without a solvent, which is nice. Only wish the set had a few more colors for the price.
