That draw with jazza jumpscare awakened something buried in my past oml I forgot about him

For the markers: those markers seemed pretty bad because they were overfilled so they bled through easily, though I think the paper you used wasn’t ideal because it’s best to use smooth paper for markers. Also note that markers aren’t usually used to make realistic pieces, but rather more cartoonish styles

Be careful with the gel pens, it erase by applying heat (friction between the paper and the eraser), in France we can't use them for exams because if the teacher let them in their car in the heat for exemple, everything disappears ! So if you want a durable drawing or notes, don't use them, but you can use them to do a sketch, then ink everything and heat the drawing with a hairdryer ✨

in case ur wondering how the pens work, the ink is made so that when it heats up, it disappears. when you rub off the ink with the little bump, the kinetic energy produces heat and makes it disappear.

“This is a job for like, Draw With Jazza” 😭💀

For anyone curious, erasable pens involve an ink that goes invisible with heat. The rubber causes friction which creates heat. That’s why the tips page had a thermometer. My guess is the people that got pens that don’t work is because the in, got way too hot. You can sometimes put them in the freezer to fix that. If you write with an erasable pen and stick it in the freezer it kinda comes back as well.

IVE NEVER SEEN THIS GIRL ON MY FYP BEFORE BUT SHUT UP SHE IS SO FUNNY- 😭

we love u camileon ❤️ also, erasable pens typically work because the rubber erasers generate friction/heat as you rub across the paper! erasable pen ink typically is heat activated, so when you rub on the paper (and generate small amounts of heat from the friction) they erase!!

man art supplies to me are like.. do they work ok and are not horrible? five stars

Your art is definitely not 1 star

You should generally use either mixed media paper or dedicated marker paper for alcohol markers! They don't really work as well on any other paper, in a way they're similar to watercolours as you've observed. I've heard they can also work well on parchment/deli paper, and that would also be a cheap option. For blending, you have to go over the colours a bunch of times, that's why you need sturdy paper.

Came for the reviews, stayed for the vibes, subscribed for the art.

11:13 That sneeze almost summoned Michael Jackson 🕴🕴🕴

6:58 I used to have these markers! I had a 120 pack. Most of them were indeed grey (I did get quite a few purples as well. The colour I had the least amount of, was orange. It had standard orange and a slightly darker orange, but that was it). They work pretty well, but don't blend, since they dry quickly. Because they dry quickly, when colouring, you have to be fast, or else you will have some ugly lines going through your drawing. They're not that great for detailing, but rather just flat colour. They also bleed quite a lot. After using them, you will learn better techniques of using them. Basically, when using them, be quick and you'll also have to go over the same spot several times to keep it wet and make it all one solid colour. After using them for years, I learnt to leave a slight gap around where I wanted them to go, since they bleed and will fill in that gap (idk if that makes sense???) There are a lot of markers like those ones, that are called 'touch____', with a different word at the end. Weird, but they all work the exact same.

CAMI SPEAKING SPANISH I'M OBSESSED and amaizing drawings as always...

This was a great episode of Camileon! It's definitely in my top 335 Camileon videos 🥰

It keeps making me giggle every time the text flashes on screen 🔥💥🔥ULTIMATE TEST🔥🔥💥

In the end you don't end up saving anything if you buy "cheap" art supplies that only last for one work unless you plan on doing just one work.. You are gonna have to buy good quality anyways on top of the crap that you will have to throw out and generate plastic waste and waste of shipping. So just buy the better quality if you plan on using it more than once, it's worth it and it will save your nerves too :)

Gel Ink pens "erase" their ink by applying heat with friction from the eraser. The ink turns clear with heat. Put ice or an ice pack on the disappeared ink and it'll probably show up again. :)

the gel pen's ink can be erased because it reacts to heat. when you scrub the eraser, its friction heats up the ink and removes it.

The second one w the markers gave me PTSD flashbacks from middle school when me and everyone else was trying to draw w copic markers and getting enraged at the lack of blending + lots of bleeding combined w lack of skill 🤠

You rate these art supplies too high 😭 You made some amazing pieces, I hope that this channel is making enough money to help with art school!

7:21 THE STARDEW VALLEY MUSIC?!?!

I prefer brush tips for alcohol markers, it makes blending easier and just gives smoother experience. BUT alcohol markers in my experience is usually paired with other tools like pencil colors or pastels. I usually use them for the background color so i can add into the coloured part

1:57 i too have trust issues with ads

You definitely went easy on the art supplies lol 😆 I would definitely rank them lower bc they probably won't last too long, the first one was already running out of color, even if it's cheap, I don't think it's worth it, but you definitely made the best of it with your technique. They are okay, a solid 3, at least for me.

The erasing of the pen works from heat from rubbing the rubber (lol) against paper. That’s why it doesn’t work when you try to slowly erase like you do with pencil

heads up, if a post says "comission paid" its just cause its on their tiktok shop, not that theyre getting paid to review them or promote them

16:03 JAJAJA no hay problema!!! 💌❤❤ me gustó el resultado al que llegaste:") muchas gracias por la oportunidad, te admiro muchísimo!! ❤

I work primarily in alcohol markers, and they come in that weird variety of colors because they want you to buy the bigger sets 😋 the first set I ever got when I was around 12 literally had no red😧 like none it was annoying because I remember having to layer the brighest pink and then orange until I got a somewhat reddish color. also to blend them you have to make sure you add your second color while the first one it still wet, or else it's just gonna spread and push the first color away and make that weird look you were struggling with🩷

NO SABÍA QUE HABLABAS ESPAÑOL AY DIOS AHORA SOY MÁS FAN 💕✨

I'm literally watching this for the third time, I don't know why this video gives me so much serotonin honestly

it's so weird not seeing her as a painting 😭 I can't help but think she's a moving painting

The commission paid is to let the viewer know that if they the viewer bought the product through that particular video the creator will get a small percentage of that sell. Paid partnership is for those who was paid to make that video, or the company bought the video from the creator to use as an ad, or if you don’t have TikTok shop in your country then anything related to shopping through the app would be considered a paid partnership. Hope this helps

I have those markers but with a like 150 pack and they dry out really quickly. To help stop the excessive bleeding I find it helpful if you just use them really lightly and quick for the smaller details. Also to blend you kinda have to keep going over and over the colors causing them to bleed together and blend! Overall I really enjoyed this video, and I would love to see you try out better alcohol markers in the future!

15:38 the style! It’s crazy how different art supplies can totally affect how you draw!

Just vibing with the animal crossing music the whole time

Wow, tremendo jumpscare que me diste cuando empezaste a hablar en perfecto español de la nada, JAJAJAJA 16:04

lmaooo yeah the bleeding markers are alcohol markers, I love them although yeah they kinda hard to use lol

The… 🔥 🤯 ULTIMATE TEST 🤯 🔥

Most of this stuff would be good for calligraphy

AAAAA HABLAS ESPAÑOOOL, GRACIAS A DIOS. hablas muy bien los dos idiomass 😭😭😭 bueno, amo tu arte. gracias por todo, bendita sean tus manos 😭❤️

Oh my gosh, these portraits are sooooo well-done. I was a little skeptical at first, but you managed to them so well and so creative, it's admirable!

@11:11 Bless you!

the fact that the paintbrushes were just for you?? the review was 10/10 pls you’re so funny, but honestly go off and spoil yourself lol! plus all the portraits came out very good! and ik you say you didn’t like the markers too much, but i think that portrait ended up looking amazing too!! perhaps i might buy these art supplies now..🤔

Camila apologizing in Spanish is the cutest thing

The fact people think some markers/pens etc are bad is wild and I can agree if I saw it for myself honestly but I did get a pack of makers on Amazon idk the price anymore bc am forgetful but one just ONE marker came in just dead flat dead didn’t work at all so I got rid of it. Others worked fine 🤞hopefully I didn’t misplace my money on crappie makers…. I WANNA DRAW MEN.

I asked for alcohol markers for Christmas and got these exact ones 😭😭😭😭 4:36

I just found your channel randomly, and I wanted to let you know that I experienced the same existential crisis in design school. The assignments were ridiculous, bizarre, and seemingly meaningless. I enjoyed art and was good at it, but eventually I came to a point where I realized that design and art work is not for me, especially if it was going to resemble what we did in classes. Basically, my heart really desired to learn and do hard things (even if it was less "fun"). I'm not saying this is you, but I've been in your position before. In the end, I switched to mechanical engineering. It's like design- you still have to create to overcome problems, but the work is so much more rewarding and applicable. I'm not saying design work is not valuable, but if you're struggling with finding value with art, I would attempt to create for a different (potentially more physical, mechanical, dynamic) purpose. Mechanical Engineering is extremely difficult and it is not the walk in the park that design was- but I actually use what I'm learning irl and the way I perceive the world is changing because I'm starting to understand more of how things work. All I'm saying is that the designer to engineer pipeline exists 😎. You got this.

The “do Nat buy hehe well i bought it sista” got me😭

"Sorry i suck with these i cant use them" Proceeds to kill us with absolute beauty

this is giving superraedizzle in the best way

This feels like an underrated video

those portraits were INSANE pure talent fr

"Pastel my balls bro" that had me dying lol

The first product works super well, you just need the right material for it so it doesn’t bleed through. Yes, I indeed bought these😅

I have touch markers and I’ve had them for about two months THERE SO GOOD people need to close the caps right

5:02 i have the 80 pack and i think they're really nice

This was actually so entertaining…. If you ever stopped making videos I would CRY

omg this review is soooo preppy

STOPP UR SO GOOD AT DRAWINGV i literally wanna be as talented as u one day 😭

I get so triggered when marker packages don’t have the colors in order. Idk if it’s just me BUT JUST ORGANIZE THE COLORS IN THE PACKAGE 😭

I remember watching you when you had 10k subs ❤

The markers from tik tok almost look like the same exact brand that is usually sold at ROSS omg. They're not the best but are good for quick art/sketch, or blocking in large colors and such. Blending is like non existent but, when its the only thing you can afford, work with what you have right? I used them a lot in late middle school all throughout high school. I usually see them selling in bulk for like 14.99$ at ROSS so if you can't afford copic markers, I think they're an okay-ish alternative, just definitely not the best. Don't put high expectations and work with what you have, most importantly have fun!

not the draw with jazza call-out I forgot that was his old user omg

I was always wondering if they're actually good or not but there was no videos of testing them but ads. So thank you then

For anyone thinking of getting the grabie paint markers, i would recommend NOT getting them. My issues with them: -I've noticed the color tends to separate? Idk how to describe it, but the color will be inconsistent. Like, I was coloring with a light purple once, and I noticed waaaay too late that the color of the ink had changed while I was using it? I had to give it a good shake before it changed back to its initial shade. Honestly, sometimes even when I give the pen a shake, it'll still come out inconsistent, and I have to repeat the process tons of times to get it to work. This happens at anytime, whether I'm in the middle of using them or haven't used them in awhile. Doesn't matter. - the tips dry out way too easily. I'm constantly having to pump the pens. I'm not sure if there is something going on with the material of the tip or if maybe these pens just have awful ink flow?? Either way, it makes for a very frustrating experience. -they do not layer well. I don't know why they struggle to layer, but I've found I can barely add a second layer. All in all, I've seen very mixed reviews across the board. Some really like these paint makers and have a *fantastic* experience with them. Others do not (like me). This makes me think there may be some inconsistency in production and very poor quality control issues. Honestly, I'd recommend saving your money for another paint marker and skip over these :/

😅 the art supplies are initially good but longevity wise it’s not gonna last more than a month let alone a year

your art is like food being served at a 5 star restaurant

Cami hablando español 🥹

So the TikTok shop is kinda like Temu 😭

been following you on tiktok for years and just discovered you have youtube 😣😣 immediately buying merch ahaha

Every single issue your having with the alcohol markers is because of the paper your using, not the pens. I’ve got some of these n I really like them. I have copics too and have hardly touched them since I got these. I’ve got the biggest set which I think is 160 Pens and then a 48 pack. My issue with these is the mis labelling and inconsistency of the colours. I’ve got Pens in each set that are numbered and named the same but are completely different colours inside. Other times the numbers will match but the names are different and then vice versa aswel. It’s a shame because I have no complaints about them other than this and tbh for the price I paid (the massive set was free from TEMU for playing the fish game and the smaller set was from TikTok and cost me £2) I really can’t moan

The new OHUHU Bleedthrough marker pad is Witchcraft, nothing goes past it and you can use both sides on a sheet!

Those paint brushes that you said you didn’t know what they were used for are for blending (at least that’s what I use them for- 😭)

The gen pens have a specific ink formula that doesn't absorb into the paper but sits on top. Its not the best thing for art but it is a cool stationary supply to have.

love it. about hose alcohol markers, you should try it with special alcohol marker paper. it'll work way better

As someone who loves my grabie markers they do pill the paper if you don't let layers properly dry and they and get pretty hard to shake if they are not used for a while but you can just give it a hit and they will shake just fine

camilla is the only person that can take 1 star reviewed art materials and still make them look amazing

5:27 i have this set but with 168 markers and i made an entire table for them with colors and numbers and name Edit: also yes the names are NOTHING like the actual color the marker is. Thats why i made the table 😁

Touch markers are apart of a mega brand that release a bumch of markers under similar names with low mediocre quality and compared to other brand they are just... not good

Can u do a art portfolio of individual animals in crazy places (dog in ocean, Guinea pig in space, Tiger in Candyland etc) plzzz?!?

I had the same reaction the first time I tried an erasable pen. Wasn't mine but I was tempted to steal it from one of my classmates lmao

4:55 I have those marker but it is a 80 pack one, and they are not bad. What I like about it is that it will not dry out if u forget to close the led for a couple of hours

0:07 i still have this EXACT art supply kit lying around my house somewhere.

Using the same brushes for over ten years... so relatable

i love the explosions , thank you

ok ok, the art is SOOO STUNNING, UUUF AND THAT SPANISH!!! (soy latina asi queee AJSJAJSD)

I find it funny that I have these exact markers, but they're called ,,Touch MIKA" (The ,,touch'' is literally written in the same way, but the second part is a way different font lmao)

11:13 I think Michael Jackson possesed you for a sescond there

You could use the shavings from a sharpener and still make a masterpiece

The way I absolutely gasped when the gel markers actually erased so well!! So satisfying 😼

the only reason the markers were bleeding it's because you need a specific type of paper for them to work and mix well :)

girl i think u got scammed with the alcohol markers i've bought that exact set at five and below for four dollars!!! 😭😭😭

SHE A REAL RU-vidR LIKE PEOPLE SAY "fiRST" AND STUFF ITS SO COOL

This whole video has me laughing so hard, as someone who uses alcohol markers a lot, would not recommend Touch markers for long term artists haha

we used to have a load of the touch markers at my art school, they actually have a huge selection of colours and they work pretty decently for the price

You know the vid is gonna be good when that Animal Crossing music starts playing
