The sheer volume of pastels is reason enough for me to avoid them. I have a Daniel Greene pastel video. He's working next to a table specially designed to hold pastels. He has literally hundreds of them. They're all arranged by hue. Where an oil painter would have a tube of rose madder and white, he has a separate pastel for each shade that he would have on a palette. It's staggering the number of them needed.

If you don't have his pastel videos, I'd highly recommend them.
