    I wouldn't say any one pastel line is better if that is what you are asking. Just pick the brightest, cleanest looking baby. Go for lots of yellow.

    For adults, the least browned out is best.

    Depends on what you like. I like Graziani line pastels, but there are good and not so good examples of every line. And you can take a stellar pastels and make not so stellar babes depending on how you breed it.

    From what I have seen Graziani pewters for example still have a bright yellow undertone, some do not want that much yellow in a pewter but personally I do. Soooooo...

    I would buy one at a show so you can see several different individual Pastels, and compare them all. If you cannot do that, there are tons of adult males for sale for cheap. Look those ads over, and if you find one that still has a decent amount of yellow, buy him.
