The Palomino Blackwing Graphite Pencil is a dream come true for illustrators, writers, artists and pretty much anyone who loves a soft, smooth, dark line from their pencil.
It features a balanced and smooth graphite core that has been described as like "writing with butter". The lead is soft - and has the ability to be light or dark, depending on pressure. It's the softest of the three Palomino Pencils we currently stock.
Palomino Blackwing Advocates include:
The list of known Blackwing users includes John Steinbeck, Stephen Sondheim, and Chuck Jones, who proudly used Blackwing's to create Bugs Bunny and countless other Looney Tunes characters.
Now, Blackwings are assisting a new generation of writers, artists and musicians including Grammy Award-winning Sugarland member Kristian Bush and Ren & Stimpy creator Bob Camp.
Available in a box 12 or as single pencils.
