Kleurpotlood Staedtler 187 T144 Duitsland

The Staedtler 187 T144 colour pencil is made in Germany and delivers vibrant pigments suitable for drawing, sketching and coloring.

Advantages

Its smooth application reduces drag on paper and facilitates gradual layer buildup for shading and tonal transitions. The pencil’s construction ensures easy sharpening without excessive breakage of the colour core.

How to use

Select a suitable paper surface and sharpen the pencil with a standard sharpener designed for coloured pencils to expose an even core tip. Apply light pressure for initial layers and build up color intensity gradually to avoid wax bloom or oversaturation. For blending, use layering or gentle circular strokes; solvent blending tools or colorless blenders can be used cautiously if compatible with the pigment binder.

Recommendations

Store pencils horizontally or in a container to protect the core from breakage. Keep away from direct heat and humidity to maintain pigment and wood integrity. When working on final artwork, test lightfastness and blending methods on a scrap piece of the same paper.
