I LOVE any type of color pencil (or paint, markers, etc.) that shows up well on dark papers. And although i have my "collection" of Prisma ones i love, I saw these Faber Castell online, and thought I'd get, just to compare.
Survey says: Nope.
I find them hard to use, as the color is tricky (see inventory sheet below). They did ok on my Beatles song with this brown Strathmore paper, but my Prismas are way better.

Adding to the donation pile!
Below are other sheets of inventory I did a while ago, to compare, as I have "remnants" of these Rose Art color pencils that are F-A-B for dark papers. I wanted to get Prismas to match, and luckily, I was able to find some for each!
What's left of my Rose Art's.
(My writing is ick, but don't feel like redoing. )
comparing Prisma to Rose Art. SO glad Prisma makes these! Way "softer" than the FB's.
some random neon ones. Not bad.
Most all my color pencils (neon included)
