Question about color pencils

Hello,

I got a question about color pencils, I see that everybody is using prismacolors, and the works drawn using them are awesome, the bad thing, is that here in Russia I cant seem to find them at all...

Could any of you guys who use them, recomend me another brand/type with a similar feel/quality/effect (whatever)? I've recently bought a 24 box of Derwent Artists penclis ( havent tried em yet though, no time ). Has anybody used those? Are they any good or I bought the wrong ones?

Thank you!

Maybe you can get Faber Castell Polychromos overthere. They are sold in Europe.

They are the best available here (Germany) because I don't get the Prismacolors aswell.

Look for a green box.

Derwent is a pretty well known brand. I haven't tried them but I think they give pretty good results.

SieG, please let me know what you think of them. i don't have the money right now (just spend my last money on a concert ticket for 3 Doors Down and a ticket for the season opening of the A1 Grand Prix of Nations) but i would really want to try them.
