## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these made in Japan?**
A: Yes, certainly.

**Q: im looking for some good oil pastel crayons for my mum who is a great artist, are these professional quality?**
A: Semi-Professional I would say ... they are a bit on the harder side, so good for underpainting adding softer ones on top (similar to the way one works with soft pasels in order not to clog up the support/paper too quickly)... The CrayPas Specialist are better regarding lightfasness though ...

Great pastels for artists

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Colours!
*by B***T on 2 November 2016*

I've previously owned the 25 set, so know that these are good student oil pastels, but I wanted a more extensive colour range. I'm over-joyed with the colours in the 50 set: not only do you get 2 extender pastels, but the set contains some great colours for painting cats: lots of natural earth tones, browns, creams, and oranges (for ginger cats); there are lots of surprises in the other colours too: olive greens and gorgeous blues (great for blue kitten eyes), and some extra reds. If you need a good student set at the top end of the range (these don't quite make it into the expensive 'artist' category) I recommend these, especially for wildlife and landscapes.
