I think the Prisma colored pencil brand has got to be my favorite! I prefer the soft tip to the verta... I forgot what they are actually called but the one's that are a harder tip. I haven't tried the woodless ones just yet, but that is next on my list. They have every color you could possibly imagine though. They are so nice and smooth to use as well. Their soft tip are one of very few colored pencils I enjoy using on construction paper for important projects as most tips peel back small amount of the paper and ruin it while coloring, but these ones do not!
