Our verdict

A large soft oil pastel set for coloring and drawing. The listing gives sparse detail, and the included lead holder is unexplained.

Overview

Mungyo packs a wide palette of vibrant, blendable soft oil pastels into this Gallery set. The sticks have a ribbed grip and a round body with a bold point. The listing lists an instruction guide and a lead holder with the set.

Forty-eight shades give broad room for blending and layering in coloring and drawing work. The oil base is not water resistant per the specs, the description says only brand new, and the lead holder entry looks out of place for oil pastels.

Who it's for

Adult hobbyists and art students who like soft, blendable color and a broad range will find a broad palette here. Buyers who need a precise contents list, a warranty or fine detail pencils should check other products.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Very wide color palette
  • Soft and blendable
  • Instruction guide listed
Cons
  • Lead holder entry unclear
  • Bold point limits fine lines
  • Contents detail is thin

Performance notes

Soft oil sticks lay down saturated color that blends where strokes meet, so layering builds depth. A ribbed grip helps control pressure, and the bold point favors broad areas. Not being water resistant means moisture can affect finished work.
