There are few products on the market comparable to Derwent tinted charcoal pencils. Most behave more like pastel, with a relatively low ratio of charcoal to pigment.
The primary difference between the two products is that tinted charcoal is translucent and lets the paper show through, while pastel is opaque. Charcoal lays down a thin layer while pastel is more dense in color upon application.
