Watercolor pencils Revisited

It is a long time since I've done anything with watercolor pencils. I've got two cardboard boxes of them, one box for red, yellow and brown pencils, and the other one for blue and green pencils.
Last Sunday I watched a video showing someone playing with pencils, and I felt so inspired that I grabbed thoses two boxes and began to draw / paint. 
It felt good to try something completely different. I used Paint On Paper made by Clairefontaine, and I loved this kind of paper. It is not as textured as "real" watercolor paper, but it still has some kind of texture to it. 
I used a deep blue marker for the background and I love how it makes the painting pop out.
I've got pencils from different brands: some Albrecht Dürer pencils, Faber-Castell, some Mondeluz and Progresso pencils from Koh-I-Noor, and one Supracolor II from Caran d'Ache (the most expensive watercolor pencil of all).
I definitely will continue to play with them!
