Use this free Holbein conversion chart to find all the pastel tone matches in your Prismacolor, Arteza, Brutfuner, Crayola & Black Widow sets.
Watch the video walkthrough and find out more about this comparison on my blog.
This download includes both a blank version, and the pre-filled colored version for your reference. In the video, I scaled it to fit an A3 page. But it fits any standard size paper.

This conversion chart is great because I can work with different pencils to get a pastel look. Also I don’t have a pastel set so this gives me a guide on what colors to blend colors…Thank You
Felicite (verified owner) –
I can now easily find all the pastels in my Prismacolour set which has been tricky when they are so spread out among all the others. Also how to mix some of the ones that are not available in my set. Thanks.
