The Albrecht Dürer Magnus is fully water soluble thanks to the highquality materials and the experience of Faber-Castell. This enables perfect colour transitions between dry and wet areas and enables lines to merge seamlessly into areas of colour. With only a few brush strokes, the colour can be painted on finely or over large areas and unfolds its unique colour intensity in its watercolour state. Thanks to the voluminous lead, a large number of pigments can be applied quickly and watercoloured afterwards. The colour intensity varies between vibrant colours and pastel shades depending on the amount of water used. If a more intense colour effect is required, colour can be applied on a separate sheet of paper, dissolved and applied to the already watercoloured area.
