OVER THREE POUNDS OF ART SUPPLIES! | Mystery Art Box | Paletteful Packs Unboxing 

OH NO! Did you leave the other drawing stump in the box!!! Rip 2nd stump, you were never used

The art stumps are commonly called tortillions and realism pencil/graphite artists use them to get a smooth texture instead of leaving the scratchy pencil or using your finger which has oils and isn't good for the art.

By the way to sharpen a blending stump use a small sheet of sand paper!!!! People like this so she can see it!!!

Quick and dirty guide to pencils: the harder the lead (hb, and lower number b) the lighter the graphite appears, the easier it is to erase, and the less easy it is to blend/smudge. Softer leads are the opposite of all of the above. Also, something handy to know is if you need to go dark with a pencil, you should never just press as hard as you can with a pencil-go to a softer lead instead. If you press to hard to try and go darker than the pencil really can, it’ll damage the paper and also make the graphite appear shiny ^^ have fun with the new supplies :D

I'm a graphic designer. Because I design all day long, I don't feel like drawing anymore. Watching your videos makes me happy and inspires me to try to draw again. I need a lot of practice (I'm basically a beginner again), but thank you for inspiring me.

“but I don’t want to erase the ____ 😩” me every time I draw 😂

At around 14 minutes, I love how she used the eraser to blend the pencil instead of using the blending stump 😂 we’re creatures of habit.

Woah four sketchbooks! Ahh!

*Let's take that off before it reveals my face* Basically what she meant XD

I love that you drew freckles on the shoulders, I’ve always been insecure about the freckles on my shoulders and that kinda made me feel better. *edit 1 year later* I never realized so many people liked and commented! thank you for all the kind replies :,)

My comment will probably get drowned buuut I thought I’d toss it out there anyway. The blending stump aka tortillion is useful for smooth shading like you’d see in more realism based pieces. 3 quick tips for using tortillions: 1. Tortillions are basically useless with colored pencils (your better off with a blender specifically designed for colored pencils) 2. For your tortillion to be of the most use I recommend reading up on the differences in graphite pencils such as hardness (H) and boldness (B) harder lead leaves a lighter line that smudges less like a 4H and softer bold lead leaves a darker line that has more movability like a 4B, you can build up various pencils for smooth realistic shading and use the tortillion to blend it, it’s a process and can be frustrating. 3. Finally, tortillions get gross pretty quickly as they pick up a ton of graphite (this can be useful in some instances just experiment with it clean and coated), if you want to experiment with them a lot you can get them in various sizes and buy a sandpaper block at your local art store (it’s literally just multiple small sheets of sandpaper stapled together) the sandpaper blocks are used to “shave” or “sharpen” away the tortillion to give you a clean surface to work with. One last bonus tip related to working with graphite pencils and not tortillions specifically, to avoid smudging your page or the side of your hand becoming covered in graphite try using a blank piece of scrap paper and resting your hand on that so it creates a barrier between your hand and the paper your drawing on. You can move it around as necessary. Personally, I love your art style I watch your videos with my 5 year old, she really takes a ton of inspiration from your work. It would be interesting to see you try out smooth shading techniques as that’s vastly different from your usual style.

I bought a kneaded eraser and every one in my class was like *Is ThAt bLuTaC? WoOoOw*

Paletteful box can now be used for exercisng, coming in your nearest stores...

If Miss waffles is as pretty as her personality then she would be gorgeous.

girl four sketchbook in a box feels like a DREAm

8:09 “Usually hands are about the same size as a face” Me: immediately puts hand on face...

Don't be afraid to push your darks! It will make your highlight stand out more, and just make your drawings look better too

Me as an artist, I draw realistic with graphite so, it was alot of fun to see you draw with the art medium I use😁 Love you Rin❤❤

Just a tip (we do this in my drawing class) when you use mineral spirits with a stump and use prisma colored pencils it blends really well you can also blend well with oil pastels and to clean your stump you use sandpaper and with mineral spirits a little goes goes a long way

This is one of the prettiest drawings I’ve seen from you. I just really love it

Your channel has been a huge inspiration to me! I'm almost exclusively a digital artist so, when my computer died about two months ago, I was lost since it had been over 3 years when I last used pencils. Watching your videos and listening to your commentary really helped me get back into traditional drawing and I even bought a few new supplies from these monthly box videos! Now that my computer is fixed, I still want to draw traditional whenever I can. Thank you for helping me have fun drawing again! 💕

6:40 Do I spy... Bucky's arm?!

I'm laughing so hard, that girl is literally ME IRL like: I have curly hair that length, freckles, my eyebrows look like that, I love roses, I have a shirt like that, AAAAA

Everytime I draw >~< Me: IM GONNA DRAW! THIS TIME I AM NOT GONNA GIVE UP! *5 mins later* Me: I CANNOT DRAW! *cries* MY ART IS HORRIBLE!

rip the rose stem 2k18

"Let's try spinning that's a good trick" Star Wars!!! The phantom menace💕 I love all your drawings they're amazing💙

Everytime she sees a kneaded eraser: *HUH, MY BABY*

Waffles: "Usually hands are about the same size of your face." Me:*puts hand up to my face* Also Me: They say you learn something new everyday lol 💜😀

I love that size of sketchbook, I use them for travel and people watching O.O

Oh I love your artwork and personality!!

Your finished drawing reminds me a lot of Rachel Elizabeth Dare from the Percy Jackson series.

You’re my art inspiration. It’s absolutely stunning, I’m honestly so blown away, especially by your traditional pieces like this. It’s very beautiful and so pleasant to look at. You’re mixture of fluidity and anatomy are perfect.

Whenever waffles uploads a video, I stop whatever I'm doing. Nothing else is important even when I'm drawing for myself *update Doggo was upset so I had to pat dog while watching this video

Hello waffles I love your videos keep up the good work

I love watching your videos because watching you draw is relaxing. And helps me with my art.

2:31 I LOVE unboxing ASMR..😊

YAY SHE UPLOADED A NEW VIDEO!!!!😱💗💗💗

Hello waffles! You're such an inspiration to me! I really enjoy art, and watching your videos encourages me to keep drawing! Also, just bought a kneaded eraser an hour ago and you are so right! They are the best!

I really wish I knew how to draw beautiful hands like you. And also if u don't want dem sketchbooks u can always call me 🤙 I got you fam 💁🏾

I’ve just started illustration and I’m kinda struggling, so I’ve been watching your videos as I draw, it helps me see how to draw the eyes and nose (I suck at noses) and it’s really helping me!!! Thank you so much waffles!

I was actually JUST watching one of your videos😊this is such a cool unboxing!! 4 sketchbooks!!! WHOAAAAAAAAAAA.... ffles. Get it? Whoa-ffles?😂

This is stunning you should draw more with different pencils!! Also I looove how you draw curls 😍❤️

That girl has fingers from "Scream". LOL! As a beginner artist, it's good to see that even professionals struggle sometimes. Great piece! TFS!

i love how authentic your videos are! we really get to go through the entire expeierence of trying to draw certain things and picking out poses with you it makes it a lot more real i love it

My art supplies dont weigh that much but they do cost that much 💀

Hey Rin/waffles! I started drawing again after a long time of self doubt and hating my art. I am happy to say that I have improved so much and I am happy with my art now! You are a *HUGE* inspiration! Thanks so much!, Emily

Watching you draw is so satisfying to me. I just can't get enough!

I really like how your drawing turned out! I'm trying to get more comfortable with drawing people right now. Oh, who am I kidding? I'm just struggling with drawing in general. 😆

everytime you draw, i think of a story for a character (i like them even more after that). this one is my favorite though bc she is pretty and story is simple. she reminds me of persephonie and i know that rose is flower of aphrodite but maybe persephonie created it and this is a process (that's why she's not holding it)... maybe next time you could try to draw someone from India or something... i would love your interpretation :) i like your art very much, luv you

Your so good at drawing!!! I want to get back into drawing because of you 💖 Edit: OMG SHE REPLIED 🥺🥰😭

I've been binge watching your videos for a few weeks now as I try to reignite my love for art. I was so excited about this box because I love graphite, but your illustration brought me to TEARS!! The curls... the freckles... She looks like me!! You didn't seem excited about this box, but your work touched me so deeply. Thank you!!

I love how your art style is evolving. You keep getting better and better. You’re one of my biggest inspirations cuz I can see you grow while I grow as an artist too and I feel like I can make it cuz of you.

I loved watching you draw this! Now I feel like drawing something as well, but I have no time today. 🙁

I love your nails!

I just ordered my first subscription box from them(The premium one too even though it's a bit more expensive), I'm so excited!

This is the most relaxed yet tense video of yours Ive watched :D

I lost my kneaded eraser ;-; My child has left me.

Dam it’s a good box set.. Sketch practice for dayz!! (x Lucky 🍀

This video helped me realize how enjoyable it is to see everything swatched before it's used in a drawing or painting. I look forward to that more than what is in the box. Like, what will that art supply look like swatches, no matter if you nought it or it was sent to you. 🤗❤️👍🏽💯

i really hope you realize how therapeutic watching your videos are when you are having a rough night and can't sleep. I literally love your videos so much.🥺❣️

I should look up a reference *draws rose perfectly* I didn’t even need the reference *me: =o*

Oh no!, you forgot the stem of the rose in the final drawing...

I think I made this a Saturday tradition! I literally wake up and watch your videos before starting my day 💜 it's very relaxing :)))

Blending stumps are my favorite item for pencil drawings. They help so much with shading. I love them.

Hey Waffles! It’s Me just want too say please keep up the good work (and that rose looks amazing 👍🏾)

I use pencil sets to do realism. Its one of my favorite mediums... I also like to use charcoal for realism its just so fun and easy to learn

Love your style and I love watching/listening to your process. Very inspiring & gets me into a artsy mood. 🤹‍♀️

ugh thank you, I find your voice so soothing. its almost therapeutic, I love you

"I just love curly hair" Me: MY FAVORITE YOU TUBER LIKES CURLY HAIR (I have curly hair☺️)

Is it just me or does that background music sound like Wii Sports music

I love seeing how much you’ve improved! That piece you did with all the supplies is incredible ❤️💕

AAHH THIS IS AMAZING!!! I’ve been watching your videos for a while and your art has really progressed!

Hello, I'm not trying to hate because I love your personality and art...I just can't hear you, even with my volume all the way up on my phone or laptop. To me I would watch your videos so much more if I could hear them.....and I'm sure in real life you have a soft voice. And the music it a good volume. I just want to hear more of your funny jokes and bubbly personality:)

... I can't draw curly hair TwT which sucks because one of my characters have curly hair-

I love watching you shade with pencils. 💜

I could watch you draw all day. I absolutely love your style

as soon as I saw the art stumps I started chanting (in my head😂) “aRT STUMP ART STUMP ART STUMP” idk why probs since I finally know what something is on here

More than 3 Pounds!? Wow!! I was sooo excited to see what was in there!!! 😁

Every time I watch your videos it inspires me to draw more. And I love to study your artwork to help me figure out how to draw something. And I love your art stile

I primarily use pencils to shade and make my art so watching you use them made me really happy.

Ur the best RU-vidr in the world 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Wait... Waffles are you a Trekkie too?!

that hair looks awesome omg. the different types of pencils created such a cool look

It feels like this box would be great to give to somebody who wants to start drawing or shows an interest in art. It has pencils, erasers, paper, blenders, and a sharpener.

You forgot an art stump in the box

U are my fav artist

I love your art work I think it’s so creative how you just create something on the spot it makes me more interested in art , your very talented 😊

I love art stumps!!!! They are perfect for shading!!!❤️❤️

Your art is lovely and would look beautiful on a set of Tarot or Oracle cards ^^

i know i’m late but it would’ve been so cool to incorporate the robot arms because it’s like a space girl of some kind seeing wildlife for the first time lol what am i talking about

Oh my gosh!!! I love your videos! I have been watching most of them, and you're my favorite RU-vidr!!!

This is my favourite thing that you have ever drawn and I have been watching you for a little over a year
