why not as popular as neocolor 2?
The Neocolor 1 is so great for a travel kit. Arty friends always seem to choose the water-soluble 2. The water resistant 1s are so versatile though. You can use them over the top of dry watercolour or simply to draw with. The joy being that if you add colour later - they don't move. I took a tin on holiday to Greece and they worked for the gnarly textures of rocks and fast lines beautifully. I've just ordered a few more colours.
