A serious main studio set for illustrators, fine artists, and advanced art students who work across multiple subject areas and need reliable color variety without hunting through open stock for missing mid-tones.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 3.8mm wax-based core delivers the same velvety, bloom-free laydown as the rest of the Luminance range — deep color saturation, clean blending over darker values, and sharp highlight rendering. Stored in a high-durability metal tin with protective inner trays.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll colors certified under the ASTM D-6901 standard.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecifications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePencil count: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCore diameter: 3.8 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCore type: Wax-based, smooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCasing: FSC-Certified incense cedar wood (round, straight-grained)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightfastness: ASTM D-6901 certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaging: High-durability metal tin with protective inner trays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Swiss Made\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFAQ\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color range does the 40-set cover?\u003c\/strong\u003e A wide intermediate range, including expanded greens, blues, earth shades, and neutrals, reducing the need for complex color mixing and covering more subject areas straight out of the box.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs the 40-set enough for professional illustration work?\u003c\/strong\u003e For most subjects, yes.
