They're quite interesting! I personally only used them dry before this since my watercolour skills with paints are just augh-ful. They're a lot softer and blend much easier than regular colouring pencils. If you can find some at a reasonable price, I definitely recommend them!

Nice! yeah I hate wet paint, i've never had much luck with it. Is there a brand you'd recommend?

Any generic brand should work, honestly. I was gifted Caran D'Ache pencils several years back, but there's no hope in hell I could afford the same ones unless they were on serious sale.
Even ones from cheap places like Poundland/Dollar Tree work if you can find one that stocks them.
