Hi there! I’m Madalina, an watercolor artist and illustrator based in Italy. Female portraiture and nature are my preferred subjects matter of choice. Here you'll find watercolor TIPS and TUTORIALS, art tools and books reviews and HOW TO improve your illustrations!
what is the outliner product. I am looking to buy markers for my daughter along with something to make smaller lines. I see copic has outline. Also wondering if watercolor paper best?
Hello, their Copic detail liners are good as well, although, I personally reach over for my Uniball detail pens. For paper, please do NOT get watercolor paper for your daughter’s markers. They soak up the ink so much faster, thus the marker ink gets used up quicker.
@@tammygillettVictoryGarden Hi! You can find Copic liners too but they’re similar to other cheaper brands like Sakura Micron. When it comes to paper you can start with marker paper like the sketchbook by Ohuhu or other brands too. I use watercolor paper when I want the markers to have watercolor vibes. But this also means that my markers are consuming faster. Hope it helps!
I have tested copics and CAN feel they are better quality than Ohuhu... But im a beginner at alcohol markers and I really cant justify 200 bucks for like 24 markers when I just wanna test out the medium.... Im thinking ill buy some lighter shades first that ohuhu doesnt have, and start investing in a copics collection from there! Maybe in the future ill be able to afford more of them and move on from my ohuhus :)! I kinda see ohuhu as student-grade and copics as professional-grade
I did exactly the same! At first I bought just a few Copics, mostly during sales. Then I added more every year. Now I have a decent collection that I can use for my illustrations. I prefer Copics because they are more transparent and I can do many layers :)
Ohuhu may not be as good as Copic markers but at least you don't have to take out a loan to buy all 358 Copic markers. $2252.35 for all 358 copic markers in the United States and the 320 marker set from Ohuhu in the United States is $261.00.
oh I know.. you can buy a car with that money in Europe.. I don't use Copics only for my art so I'm ok having just a few. If you're a beginner or you want to color full illustrations with markers only, then price is an important factor.
Secondo me per una valutazione di vari brand ha senso mettere anche quelli dove hai parlato in video singoli, anche perché appunto è un video non dove li presenti, ma dove parli delle differenze.
@@jinjjj2283 grazie del suggerimento! Devo trovare una modalità con cui parlarne di tutti in un solo video. Purtroppo questi erano i soli marchi di cui avevo colori simili. Usare colori diversi magari non rende l’idea
From all the comparisons, you gave me the best artistically useful one! I Rather buy one brand than two! What sold for me was the layering of the lightest shades with one colour. Thank you 🙏🏻
Well, this answered all of my questions pretty fast. These are definitely not for me with the similarities to ink, you used them very beautifully even with the cons (cons in my opinion).
02:07 The Ohuhu brush-tip markers (Honolulu) have 363 colors, so the point should've gone to Ohuhu instead of Copic. 320 is just the biggest single set you can buy.
The price comparison goes out the window when you add in refills. 1 copic refill will refill the marker 5x. Ohuhu only carries select refills. I bought my Copics in small batches and sometimes 1 at a time until I had them all. Also its easier and cheaper to replace a few completely than having to buy a whole new set for a few colors. Ohuhu may be good but I feel better investing in my Copics.
@@heatherwarner865 if you use Copic very often and you have a few favorite colors that you use all the time and you just need to buy refills for those, then I agree. But if you use markers from time to time you don’t get to need refills. Also I have a few copics that dried out because I didn’t use them for a while.
@amberslilrose3954 not all ohuhu shades have a refill. I buy mine 1 at a time. A single refill will last 5 refills making it about $1.07 per refill. That's a lot less than buying a whole new set of markers for 1 shade...cause Ohuhu doesn't sell singles either.
@madalinartz if you take care of your topics you should never have to buy the base marker ever again...just nibs and refills. I have some that are almost 10 years old.
@@exnaborrascalvo6315 I do speak on other videos, if you scroll down in my channel. But on timelapse videos like this one I just put some music, so that it’s more relaxing ☺️
🧡Love Romania 🇷🇴 Love from USA, travelled to almost 60% of the Romania. Very nice people. Nice to enjoy the country which does not have too many immigrants. Love neighboring country Poland too. ❤
@@gallakochar4245 so happy to know other people appreciate my country too ☺️ when I go to the countryside it’s like going back in time to old traditions, food and people living a slow life and kids playing outside as I did when I was little. I love these feelings 🥰
These fishes are so wonderful! And I feel you a lot with the struggles you mentioned. I hope you will manage to break free and find the way that brings you joy and the success you are looking for.
@@saschischa thank you so much for your kind words 💖 I feel we all struggle with something in art.. but this also means we really care about our art and we will always get better and better ☺️
Che poesia! Bravissima! Permettimi un domanda per disegnare cosi' bene hai frequentato L' accademia?quali pastelli acquerelli ed inchiostro hai usato? Complimenti meravigliosa artista un abbraccio angy😊❤ Congratulazioni un
Grazie mille ☺️ no, non ho frequentato scuole d’arte, ho solo imparato guardando tutorial e facendo pratica. Per questo disegno, ho usato gli inchiostri rohrer and klingner, di acquerelli un misto di marchi tra Schmincke e Winsor and newton ed infine le matite polychromos ☺️ un abbraccio ✨💖
@@madalinartz grazie congratulazioni per il percorso che hai fatto da autodidatta. E' un grande onore averti conosciuta e ti ringrazio infinitamente per tutti i tuoi consigli sulla tecnica e sui libri. Con grande stima ti ringrazio un abbraccio angy😘
Hello Madlina, I love your channel! Could you tell me what kind of Antiktusche ink you used when you said you are mixing blue or purple with yellow and "magenta"? I reasearched the brand you show in the video and found all of the colours except for Magenta. Also the yellow is called "Ginster" is this the right one? Thanks! <3
Hello Jasmin, so the red color is called krapprot while the Yellow is from the basic rohrer and Klingner (I mean the standard bottles you can find on Amazon too) and I think it was ochre ☺️
Your art style is so beautiful, and both of these approaches were so fun to watch 💙 I always start with shadows, but you make me want to try your second approach for once!
Thank you, so happy to hear that! ☺️ the second approach is definitely faster and more spontaneous. I prefer it when painting loosely in my sketchbook 🤗
Elizas journey i think is better :) and then you have prism, and i also like ”of shades and strokes” and ”moon 365 squares vol 1-2” and i just orders vonnart sketchbook 4 🤩😍
I love this art style of yours!! If you're looking for video idea then you can make video like this;making illustrations of celebs or characters from animes,movies,series or just any people in your style!!
