Pilot Color Eno Soft Blue Set, 0.7mm Mechanical Pencil + Mechanical Pencil Lead 0.7mm, Soft Blue, 10 Leads(Japan Import)

Really nice pencil lead for when you want to draw in color instead of just regular grey. The blue is very light so be aware of that, but it suits me just well. The pencil itself is comfortable to hold and working well. I didn't get any problems with the lead breaking so far, I'm happy with it. In overall I'm very happy with it.

I just left a review for the red one, it's phenomenalll. Similar vibes, it's pigmented, barely snaps or breaks, it's cool. 10/10, fav use it every day alongside the red one.

This is a perfect light blue mechanical pencil. As with all Pilot products, this is a high quality color pencil lead that writes very smoothly. The pencil is light enough to not show and dark enough to show when you want it to. I use it for doodling and taking notes at work. It helps me bring attention and focus to certain items on my notes. I love this pencil so much that I am looking at purchasing the whole set! Thanks

I have been looking for something to use for undersketching that I intend to later cover with ink and then erase the original sketch. I have seen manga artists using these so I though I would give it a try. As far as the mechanical pencil itself, no complaints. I like that the metal feed tube is able to fully retract into the plastic body so it won't snag on anything or get damaged. I prefer chunkier pencils and graphite holders, but this pencil has a good feel thanks in part to the rubber grip. It works/feels equaly well in either hand. The Eno Soft Blue lead was my main focus. I wanted something that was easy to erase and erase completely. I did some side by side comparisons of this lead vs a typical HB graphite lead using modern white "stick erasers" and kneaded rubber erasers. As far as overall ease of erasing, this lead was about the same as graphite on typical copy grade paper and smoother notebook paper. However, as far as the original lines being completely erased they didn't quite pass. I could always see just a faint amont of blue left behind. But one would reallllly have to be looking for it and know where to look. This may not be the case on a higher quality paper or paper made specifically for manga work. I do like the tactile feel of the lead on the paper. It is very smooth and consistant. Creamier than graphite. It has a great look and I almost hate to ink over it.

Little hard to erase but the color is light and doesn’t show up as much after coloring a sketch like normal pencils would so I like it

Improved my art technique and productivity! Great way to practice your art skills

I liked this enough to buy a second one. I use it for underlining in my Bible. It has a nice soft lead and is easily visible.

This colored pencil is perfect. I bought this as a gift for my mom because it is her favorite brand and color for the art she does. She has asked me to add this to her Christmas list for years to come. The lead is sturdy and does not break easily.
