Hey! thank you for such an honest and wonderful review! is the spiral book you are using the same saunders waterford one you show at the very beginning of the video?
Love the review and your voice is soothing! I have a question; what are the colours you paint at the first photo? love those light yellow and tangy orange at @5.22 thank you for the video!
I'm glad you enjoyed it! For the first photo I used the Winsor and Newton - Vermilion Ink (very bright orange), and a mix of WN Sunshine Yellow with Speedball gold for the shimmery effect. Gold /metallic doesn't really show up as much on print so if you're planning to reproduce without any holo/metallic print, regular yellow is fine too.
Thanks. They aren’t the same. These are permanent and while you can layer colors like watercolor and mix them in a similar fashion, once these inks dry, they cannot be scrubbed off… so they behave differently. Watercolor ink or watercolor in general allows layers of pigment to rest on the paper and tend to be less permanent after drying. You should definitely try both to see the difference.
Thank you for the review! So,this inks are waterproof? I’m thinking of use them with watercolor (line art, backgrounds, details) and I’m worried about them bleeding
Hm... •3• Nice review! Tho I'd say light fastness is too oversteemated in the internet art community You *can* display artwork made with not LF materials, as long as they don't get hit directly with sun rays (which applies to any artwork, honestly) and they will last a good amount of years, even a couple of decades before starting to fade, and even then, it's a slow process, specially if it is protected with glass or fixative. Personally I'd say LF is important only for museum or really high-end artists •3• Tho yeah, any artwork sold with this kinda materials should include a warning and care instructions (Sorry to ramble here, seems like I had something to say hehe😅)
This is a good reminder. It's just that some people display pieces in the living room where there's likely light. It will fade. So it won't be as good as the original. Digital products don't matter. In fact some of the best art are made from materials that don't really pay attention to light fastness. Like the poster color art from Ghibli. Those are classics. And prints of digital or trad. I care about them cause most brands care, and people who pay attention to the quality of the paint care. Otherwise why should some paint be more expensive than others.
I don't think so. I'm unsure of the actual brand but I wouldn't recommend even for the ones you can take apart like the twsbi. Since the ink on these will clog up your pens... So it'll be tough to clean and may ruin your pen. Please stick to fountain pen inks~❤️
It's mostly water. But sometimes I use soap. There are brush cleaners in art shops but I never had to use them and just buy them again once the brushes are no longer as good as new. I try not to let ink or paint dry on my brushes.
