Great video ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐5 Star!! Super helpful.

This video was fantastic. Your painting is beautiful. I have liked and sub’d.

Easy and convenient solution! Thank you

This definitely seems beginner friendly. Considering that I’ve been wanting to get into watercolors, these will definitely be the watercolors I’ll get.

Thank you for doing this video 😊 Very informative. I’ve binged videos about oil pastels lately and this was very helpful to see. Also nice that you took some time explaining how you use the colored pencils in the end. Now that it’s been a years, what are your thoughts on these two brands and oil pastels in general? 😊 Anything you’ve learned that you’d like to add to this video?

Have you ever compared kuretake 13 with pentel pocket brush pen? I love it but find it very difficult to control the thickness of the lines. Was it easy with the number 13?

I was watching some people painting miniatures with these paints and they said that the coverage is great. I wonder if the paper is absorbing the paint too much, maybe adding a layer of gesso or glassing/matte medium to the paper could help with the coverage?

Nice review. Thanks. How do you think these compare to Mungyo Gallery? They seem softer. Maybe too soft (for me). I'm looking for a possible alternative to Mungyo -- in case they become hard to find, and also because they don't have open stock.

this videos so helpful and interesting as a beginner artist who really likes oil pastels. i love seeing the way you work with them and how you describe different types of pastels. love the video!!

That feed is being used by Pilot Metro as well as the 78G. I don't know if 78G is available for you but this model is basically just a Metro with a plastic body.

Both the regular and acrylic gouache have a toothy chalky finish that you can build on with other media like pencil but matte acrylic has a more slick and tacky finish. This is a big difference for me because I work in mixed media. I like to create a toned or gradient acrylic gouache fixed surface to work on as an underlayer and then block in my detail elements with a Caran d'Ache Aquarelle watercolor pencil. Then finally the designer gouache top layer. I can not draw on matte acrylic, it is too slick and tacky.

You mentioned oil pastels on oil paint pad ,would one have to gesso firstly . Having used the varnish which seems to work ,if I wanted to frame would I have to still keep the art work away from the glass and use a mount . Thank you

I have to say that, except as a travel or plein air convenience, I’ve never seen the logic of having something like this and using it on a palette. It seems like it would be easier to just use regular watercolor. Thanks for the video!

I am having a lot of brands! I am using all of them depending on what is my subjet and the support used! My preferences are still Pentel Arts as first layers, then I am using the others waxy brands for realism project (with Mont Marte and Artecho) and oily brands for textures paintings like impasto with knives with Haiya, Kuelox, Arrtx, As archival paintings I will stay with Mungyo extra soft, Caran d’Ache Neopastel, Hawon, then Sennelier at the final layers! There are no bad oil pastels it is depending what the type of paper used such as watercolor 300gsm Fabriano cold press or Canson Montval if the best cheaper ones with multimedia Clairefontaine papers A3 are good for studies and exercices! When you are good enough you can use pastelmat Clairefontaine pastel card from Sennelier, or wood panel or good canvas with gesso layer with sand paper 600 grit before applying oil pastel! From Quebec in Canada 🇨🇦

You can also use colour theory to combine the different colours with the uni. To make a deep brown I like to combine green, purple, red and orange

I love the uni, so I'm glad there's a comparison between uni and pentel because I wanted a yellow coloured graphite, the one colour that uni lacks

Thank you so much!!! I didn't know I can use waterproof ink with these, such a good brush pen I've had for years but I've always wanted to use watercolor over it. I'm gonna try this with Bombay black ink

Correction... oil pastels do dry it just takes a very long time just like oil paint.

Indians🇮🇳:Shake it a little or make it a little wet😂😅🤫

Thanks alot! Do you think, it will work on silk fabric...if yes which size would you suggest considering it flows fast..

most of the time when i practice oil pastels in a sketchbook i never put/do anything to protect the work, so the pages get a bit messy lol nicely done study🥰

I have a HB led in but i want to replace ut with a B led but led ain‘t coming out?

maybe 9 months late but the desk pen actually fit to preppy and friends family, personally I had plaisir le that matte black with desk pen nib, favorite pen ever. Carbon desk pen can be a bit wet due it said that the feed channel a bit bigger to accommodate pigmented PCB.

Which harder brushes do you use for details?

I like the bolder lines you’re getting from this pen and even the way you’re exploiting what limited flex it has. All my Jinhao pens are good with their standard M and F nibs, but I’ve just got an X159 and it is buttery smooth on the paper. My X750’s are my favourites but the new X159 is edging them out as it’s just so impressive. I’m mainly interested in improving my awful penmanship but might consider drawing after watching talented artists use fountain pens with such effectiveness. 👍🏻

I received a 450 and an X750 with these nibs installed. Neither would feed properly. Then I watched a video by Kristina Greke in which she alters the radius of the nib with pliers and this was done and gave immediate results. You must have hit the sweet spot with this one, and I wish I had a fraction of your talent. I do like the X750 and have about 5 of them. Going to try this with an unlinked 159 I have. Thanks for sharing! 👍🏻

Stunning! ❤

A lovely review, and I really enjoy your demo pieces. I'm quite impressed by the products ARRTX offers. These soft oil pastels look like they give a similar feel and final product to something like the Sennelier oil pastels, but at a fraction of the price.

I am wondering can you paint with Acrylic Gouache on larger stretched canvas without it cracking like it does with regular Gouache? Do you have to put a seal on the acrylic gouache when your done painting on the canvas?

Thank you!

We’re facing some real talent here xd

The only issue is that this half the life of the nib, as these nibs rust, so the ink accelerate the rusting process. These nibs are mainly used with dip pen and dried after use to extend their life.

I recently assembled a similar setup, and it has proven to be exceptional for writing. The ink flows generously, requiring minimal effort to produce smooth lines. For added flourish, a slight increase in pressure suffices. The nib is remarkably flexible, so caution is necessary to avoid splaying and potential damage. Although I purchased a nib with an ebonite feeder, I opted not to use it due to the extensive adjustments required, as noted by others. The Jinhao X750 paired with the FPR UF nib was nearly a perfect match. Initially, I faced some challenges as I was pressing too hard, causing the nib to release excessive ink and dry out quickly. However, with patience and a gentle touch, this combination offers a truly delightful writing experience.

I haven't tried the Neopastels yet but I have the 40-set of Holbein and I find them absolutely fantastic. Wrapping them up with sticky notes takes care of the mess, but I readily admit that considering their steep price point, the company should market them with a wrapper. Definitely do your research for open stock merchants before buying sets. Thanks for sharing!

This is not how to review watercolors.

Watercolor markers aren’t for a lot of people because they approach them as if they’re watercolor paints. They were designed to be a drawing & painting medium so they’re naturally versatile. The cellulose paper I use is Strathmore 400 Mixed Media paper. It has a very similar feel to hot press watercolor paper with its vellum surface. I’ve done great work on that paper it’s my go to. I love using Faber Castell watercolor markers and their watercolor pencils together.

Very pretty pastel colours ! I enjoy seeing the process . Thank you for sharing ! 🌺

Beautiful ❤️

12:55 that's bladder convertor, or con-B this is how all fountain pens used to have ink in them, its not the best to use and cracks over time (10-20 years that is) they are included in the lower end pilot pens because they are the cheapest to make, and they include convertors with all their pens

The pilot dp are some of the best pens ive written with, i just bought them not expecting much but they are amazing, they are also soft nibs so you can get a bit of flex writing done too

Very helpful. I just bought one for touching up chips in automotive paint, but there were no directions with it. Thank you, and you are an amazing artist!!

What a treat. Beautiful work. New subscriber here. 😊

Mungyo for me,is the midrange of all,but it more good quality of vibrant color❤😊

Plastic hinges break and warp, so that case does not look very durable in the long run.

Great video, I've saved this for future reference - thank you for doing the research!

these methods are absolutely BRILLIANT!!!!! i’m about 8 years late, but thank you so so much for sharing these tips!!!! :D ♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎♥︎

The desk pens in the middle are my favorite pens for drawing. You can leave them inked with carbon ink for months and they will write immediately when you need them. But as new they don't come with waterproof ink.

I am an artist myself (traditional indian style)..one of my frnd had pentel n sakura ecposed indoors for 25 years.. hes also into traditional Indian styles.. ( which traditionally uses goauche(without eggs)) n they srull look just fine

Do u have these now? After 5 years?
