Can these Gold pencils be used over or under black micron ink pens and are they transparent for grayscale coloring?

They are fairly translucent for colored pencils (this makes them wonderful for layering), so they can be used over ink lines. They are also well suited for greyscaling.

Can Gold Range color pencils be used on wood and other hard surfaces?

Gold colored pencils adhere to many hard surfaces such as wood, stone, leather and metal. The pencils are permanent, but we recommend you seal your drawing with a coat or two of varnish.

Can you achieve natural dry blending with Castle Gold as you would with a softer wax based pencil?

Very easy to blend because of the smooth oil base; if you use a colorless blender or a stump on a test patch, you can see the color move onto the paper from the edges of the patch.

What is the optimal surface on which to use these — do you recommend a particular type of paper?

Most papers will do but smooth cartridge paper is our favourite. Try working on watercolor paper too — the surface has a pleasing little texture for the pencil to ‘bite’ into.

How long does a single pencil typically last?

Black and white typically last the longest, other colors last for three months at least, more if used lightly. Of course it all depends on how fervently you apply these pencils to your everyday art!
