Another fun video! I love seeing favorites of other people, because it gives me a good excuse to try new colors 😊 I received my latest Roman Szmal sale shipment yesterday so today I get to swatch and arrange my palette. I am so looking forward to it! I also splurged on the set of 30 Neocolor IIs and some varied color pencils. So many pretty colors to play with. Congratulations on 500+ 🎉❤🤩!

Just came back to say that I did this. I love that it was very inexpensive (not counting the paint!) haha. It's a perfect studio palette for me. Not too large, but holds a ton of paint. I use it daily and it's perfect. Thank you so much for sharing this hack! I've got 6 half pans mixed in with the full to squeeze in a few more colors. Congratulations on your channel growing! Hopefully this pace continues. Love from the US 🌻

Love all those colors, they make a very beautiful and very useful ultimate palette, I think. You’ve given me some inspiration for mine. I have the same type palette but a chaeper version that is not as airtight as advertised but the same size and format as the Mijello one. Alas your inspiration has me needing to save up for some of those gorgeous, gorgeous colors so can’t build it quite yet but it’s a slow process with a lot of time in between to see if I truly like the last set-up of my chosen colors (I’m like an eternal doubter on steriods on a good day 🙈) so I can start going through the colors I do have. Luckily I still want a lot of colors I have already lol. I’m currently deciding my ultimate travel palette. It has literally cost me blood and sweat to get it ready to be filled after I’ve chosen my colors. After the metal 12 half pan tins and the occasional metal sigaret box and peppermint/candy boxes I have now modified a make-up box that I got about 20 y.a. when a certain brand came out with these modular system magnetic type palettes/boxes. I’ve removed the mirror and have smoothed it out to be spray-painted but my empty (half) pans were too high so therein lies the bleeding for it part as I’ve tackled the job myself with only a cutter knife and the pans, didn’t have those protective gloves that prevent cuts from getting through (don’t know what there called atm). I have slid off the plastic right into my fingers numerous times, luckily not all with the force to end up with too deep cuts. But I did need my excessive first aid kit, including those strips they use for deep cuts. Love those things, I never go to the ER for anything that a lot of tape can hold together 😅😂 Most are closed by now, just the one big cut across my thumb still needs those strips and bandage 🙈 So next time I know not to push too hard to cut through that hard plastic but use very tedious motions and make like a million little cuts on that same line without any pressure. Just some info for those attempting to try and do the same thing 😂

Ah I'm happy to provide some inspiration! Indeed it's taken me over a year of intensive swatching, note taking and dreaming about colours for me to arrive at this one... And I'm sure it's not my final version. There are still paints on my wishlist, somehow 😂 Be careful with that knife, painting isn't worth losing a finger for!! Maybe you could get some cheap empty eyeshadow pans or quarter pans instead?

If you want more discreet mixing areas in the lid portion (not the clear insert) you might consider gluing in a trio of those triangular plastic trays commonly used for bead crafts. I've done this with my mijello satisfactorily 😊

@chromaphile absolutely!! Your obsession with color and swatches is very much my speed and I can just enjoy the pretty colors and pay more attention to your hand movements and how you interact with the paint. I'm not artistic and none of this comes naturally to me, so I like being able to study from the very basics, that most people don't think to explain or most people don't need explained.

I love your yellow selections. I have this same palette, it houses my da vinci colors, which are my favorite! There are a couple colors I would 100% need, Quin rose/pink, quin coral/red, payne's grey, and a cerulean or manganese blue are musts for me on any palette. I have a really hard time with perylene red/violets desaturating and looking horrible dull. Love your videos! Happy painting
@chromaphile
@chromaphile Жыл бұрын
The Schmincke perylene colours are the best for not dulling or shifting as they dry! I don't find myself drawn to pinks, though I did end up adding my PR209 quin coral colour from Roman Szmal. I'm still looking for my perfect deep blue/grey too, I've just not been in love with the Payne's greys I've seen so far. Working on mixing my own 😁

Well this was timely and interesting. I'm trying to trim down my palette so for a while I can have an identical travel palette and studio palette. I'm also making the transition from Roman Szmal to tubes as I love RS but am wanting to keep some convenience mixtures of my own. I was happy to see py154 in schminke as it looks a bit warmer than the RS version and it may become my single yellow (for now lol)
@chromaphile
@chromaphile Жыл бұрын
I think it'd be a great single primary yellow! And yes when RS releases tubes my bank account is in danger. I'd love to make some custom mixes to keep in my own palette. Maybe for a future video...

Love this video! May I ask what you used to glue your full pans to the surface of the Mijello palette? I think this is a perfect, perfect solution and I'd like to do that; however, I want to be able to lift them out and put in others periodically. I was going to use some of those glue dots, the large ones, but thought I would ask you first. Also, thank you for sharing your love of painting.
