Just so you know the blue packet of Mungyo are STUDENT grade pastels and the other one is there professional line that’s the difference

I have both Paul Rubin’s and mungyo sets I love them both, mungyo are harder and better for fine details but I love the softness of the Paul Rubin’s. The one thing I will say is that Mungyo has consistent quality but the Paul Rubin’s are really inconsistent quality especially on the darker colours. Some feel like butter but a couple feel like glue sticks.

I couldn't hear you!

I LOVE my 48 set of Mungyo Gallery! I'm so happy you have the Gallery set now! I haven't used them in a long time because I haven't been able to figure out a way to "set" them (even if just setting them slightly since I obviously know oil paints and pastels take ages to actually 'dry') without using a spray fixative, because I can't be bothered to have to go outside just to spray a background I made for a page and wait. Not my cup of tea lol. I've seen videos of people setting their oil pastels with matte or gloss glazing liquids. I have Golden's Satin Glazing Liquid I might try. Though I think I remember now that I did try that before and it just ended up smudging the oil pastels. Do you set your oil pastels and if so, what do you do/use?

Been 1 year, but what is your opinion on Mungyo soft oil pastels VS Mont Marte oil pastels? I am choosing to buy one 😊

I put my Paul Rubin,s in the frege before I use them it helps with the sticky and sometimes hafe way though my painting.

Mungyo is my favorite, but I have a small set of Sennelier also

I really need a set of those, i miss using oil pastels and they seem to be really nice to add to my small collection 😀

Thank you for the review and sharing your thoughts. I just bought the gallery handmade a few weeks ago but haven’t had a chance to try them out yet. Next I think I’ll probably try the ones you bought.

Excellent review! I am expecting my Sennelier 24 set later this week. Do you have Van Gogh oil pastels, too?

Yay you tried Mungyo~!
