Polychromos Colour Pencils from Faber Castell are one of the nicest permanent colour pencils around. With a thick, oil based lead it is water resistant and smudgeproof. There are 120 colours in the range and with a 3.8mm lead and a round, comfortable barrel they are pencils of excellent quality. The core is SV bonded (securely gluing the lead to the wood on both sides down the full length of the pencil) which helps prevent breakage and allows for better sharpening to produce a fine point.
