That soft pinkish-orange you keep reaching for? The one that usually looks washed out or breaks the moment you angle it for a shading pass? Melon was mixed to fix exactly that. Derwent packed rich pigments into a core strong enough to take real pressure — sharpening, blending, building up layers — so the colour stays true and smooth from first stroke to last. No patchy spots. No snapped tips mid-sketch. Just a reliable, even laydown you can trust across any technique
