“Correction: 00:39 Holbein 5ml is $9 and 15ml is $12”
Hello again!
I know I'm 2 years behind but I was very skeptical about this jelly gouache for so long! Anyways my curiosity got to me so I got the 24 color Himi Jelly gouache set in the mail this week and have finally I've tried it. In this video I review the himi gouache compared to the tubed gouache paints I usually use. Watch me paint a very pink kitchen scene and hear my final verdict at the end of the videoooooo!
Enjoy~

I just got their smallest set to compare it to my usual brand and I had very similar problems! I didn’t have any oil on mine, but a few of my cups had the consistency of melting rubber when I opened them. I had to peel some out and dilute it to about a light coffee just to make them somewhat workable, so I couldn’t swatch those colors at their full opacity. I did my best to get smooth gradients from butter to weak tea but they behaved so much like thick acrylics it was a struggle. I kept getting blocks and wells of pigment and the STREAKS! I thought it was just me, since everyone seems to just rave about them. (It also stuck in streaks to my brush, and stained the palette that came with them on first use. Both were extremely difficult to wash off, even in the sink with my brush soap/preserver.) Some people are saying you probably bought fakes but mine came with the company card and I double-checked the seller, so…🤷 These seem really hit or miss but whatever the case really is, they don’t compare to the cheaper tubes I’m used to so I kinda regret buying these. It’s nice to feel validated lol

I spent such a long time typing a response lol and it didn't posted.. let me try again. Thanks Jason for stopping by and leaving this comment! Yes LOL i completely agree with you and I did my research too because so many artists rave about this gouache like you said -so I also thought maybe mine was a counterfeit. But i purchased it from their company so maybe it's bad quality assurance? I also wonder if these artists have used high quality gouache brands to compare the consistency? One tip if you don't want to toss these cuz its a waste of money - take out some paint and let it dry then reactivate it with water- i felt like it worked more similar to regular gouache after I did that. Which totally defeats the jelly-like purpose. But yes going forward - only buying gouache in tubes 😂

WOW, I don't know gouache that well, which is why I'm here watching videos, but that comparison between the himi and your higher grade, you did so well, I could totally see the difference. Like another commenter, I saw so many people rave about them, I just ordered my set that I can't cancel, but what I like is this video made me feel more informed about the choice I made and I have kids so I guess I could give it to them. But seeing that difference with the Winsor Newtown ones, was helpful - thank you and to everyone else who has commented sharing their experience.

I very much appreciate your honest review & assessment. When getting started it's important to not spend millions but also it's impossible to truly tell if one enjoys a medium if the brand one starts with is NOT typical. Having such difficulties can make one think that all Gouache would behave as such. So I am very happy to have seen this video first... your scene is adorable and you made a lovely painting but I think one less experienced would have really struggled and become totally frustrated! Love your work & style so much!

Where did you buy this HIMI gouache set? I got the HIMI set for $27, including paintbrushes, and I dont have these problems. My gouache is smooth, no streaky lines, or any of those problems. I dont know if the color of the boxes makes differences meaning if one color is better quality or something, but I have a white box and again this was from Amazon for $27, great price btw, and I do not have these problems. If anyone wants goa good gouache, get the HIMI set, white box, that cost $27 INCLUDING paintbrushes. You must have gotten a rip-off or something like that. Thanks for all the likes 🎨🎨🙂🙂

Thank you for an honest review. So many youtube artists (probably with way more experience) rave about these Himi jelly gouache paints that many of us beginner artists run out and buy them only to become frustrated that we cannot produce such beautiful paintings. And we think the problem is with us, our skills, and our inability, that it becomes disheartening and we want to give up all together, thinking we will never get better, than we just don't have the talent or skills. When the real problem that we are not seeing any improvement in our art is the quality of paint we are using.

The Himi gouache is good, for its price. You can't expect it to have the same quality as the name brand or those that are like x2 x3 x4 more expensive. Himi gouache is invented in China for their high school art students to use cheap paint to practice for their university art exam so it is what it is, cheap paint. You can still practice with it and get better, art is about patient, not about how quick or how beautiful your creations are, art is art. And I have seen many creators creating beautiful pieces with Himi gouache so it is still about talent and skills. As you go on with your art journey, you have to step up your paint and tools to go along with your current skill levels. So good luck on your art journey!

Wile the quality is different, it's clear you are not using enough water. The paint should not look that thick in the palette, you have to make it a more creamy consistency. In the comparison between himi and W&N, the winsor one had a lot more water than the himi, it even runs down the plate because how liquid it is and of course it doesn't stick to the brush. No wonder himi doesn't spread well. It even has the look of dry brushing because there's not enough water.
@DearElaine
@DearElaine Жыл бұрын
Thanks for the tip Loati! For the winsor newton I only sprayed a light coat of water on it and it mixes very well which I'm used to so I guess I didn't think I needed more water for the himi gouache. When I added more water in the pink I noticed some streaking, does that happen for you?
@loati94
@loati94 Жыл бұрын
​@@DearElaine Yes some colors are more streaky than others but I guess that comes with the quality. The liquid in the surface is the binder that separates. I have a couple of colors that have a lot of binder in the surface and no matter how many times I mix it it separates again so sometimes it gets a little weird and extra streaky. This paint is more viscous so it needs more water to reach the creamy consistency than others, although with some colors it comes with a lose in opaqueness. I have W&N too and they don't work exactly the same. If you feel like you are dry brushing or the paint gobbles up in the brush, add a little more water. What I find weird is the peeling when the paint dried up in your palette, that doesn't happen to me. Could it be because of the glue to avoid the beading? I remember that happening to me with watercolors after doing the glue thing in my metal case, but maybe it's not related. In my experience, these paints don't like to be open for too long, they require misting once in a while while working with them because they lose moisture quickly.

​@@loati94 Hey Loati! Thanks for such a long feedback! 🤩 I will keep all of this in consideration when I use it again! I know some colors are more opaque than others so maybe that might have something to do with when it gets watered down. My winsor newton gouache and Holbein react similarly so I've quite used to them and I guess Himi needs some getting used to if i keep using it. The paint is cracking/flaking on other surfaces even without the glue :( I wonder if I got a bad paint set? I was assuming this happened for everyone.. but since i've already started using it i think i have to keep it 😅

Acrylic binder would make it so you couldnt rewet. Himi gouache is able to be rewet, so it does have a water soluble binder. It looked like you needed to use more water to get the correct consistency. When there isn’t enough water it clogs the brush and becomes unmixable.
@DearElaine
@DearElaine Жыл бұрын
Thanks for the tip Nina, I realized I could have tried doing that! I had added some water but I guess for the tube gouache I'm used to it requires less water. Maybe it varies from gouache to gouache - do you have a streaking problem when you mix your himi gouache with more water? I noticed that initially when I started mixing it with more water in the pink so I didn't want the streaks then I limited the water..

It's streaky, it's messy, it's not so opaque, and it smells kinda eugh when opening the cups. And yes it feels such a waste seeing those paints stick all over the place. I'll still use the gouache because there's so much quantity in each cup...

I know people who love Himi will object and that’s fine. They are obviously entitled to love what they love. However, I hated the Himi gouache so much that I dreaded even thinking of using it. I hate to waste any product though so either I use it anyway or give it to my granddaughter. This, though, I did neither. After trying and failing multiple times to get anything I liked out of it, even after watching multiple videos of people using it, I threw it away. I never felt either a burden or relief, after throwing it away, with any other art supply ever. I wasn’t even willing to pass them on as I didn’t want to inflict those feelings on any other budding or ever semi professional artist.

Holbein gouache 14ml tubes go from 6€ to 10€ depending on the series so it's similar or even a little less expensive than W&N. And himi gouache can't be purchased individually but a 24 set costs 30€ so it's less than 1.50€ per 30ml.

Oil?? Holbein uses more pigments with fine quality. I have Holbein paintings from years ago that have not budged or faded. I find I use less with Holbein too. My Winsor & Newton Designers Gouache are top tier in texture and flow too. The pigments and color pay off is also gorgeous but I find you need to use a little more than the Holbein colors. Perhaps this depends on the project? Both are a dream to mix.

Its really curious. There are tons of videos out there where artists use Himi Gouache and their art looks super smooth and super even. Not streaky at all. To a point where I sometimes wonder if they are really using Himi or some more premium brand, and just pretend they use Himi. Or are their skills so good that they manage to make even a cheap jelly gouache like Himi look like Holbein? I'm really confused.

My Holbein and W&N are not acrylic gouache. The Himi Jelly gouache is also not acrylic, I was just saying that it "felt like" there was an acrylic binder though I have no knowledge about paint formulas because the way it was moving when I wet it and the way it was flaking when it dried. It felt closer to acrylic gouache to me but the Himi Jelly is rewettable and not acrylic.

I didn’t love this brand of gouache either. The colors do not mix cleanly, likely since each hue is a multi-pigment mix, and the consistency is frustrating to work with. I scooped some of the colors into full pans and allowed them to dry, and I think that this paint performs better from dry pans than wet. Nevertheless, I won’t be buying these again. Your painting still turned out lovely though; proof that the results are produced by skill rather than materials ❤!

I always kinda see it as a red quality flag when paint sets come with a huge array of colors and this one really proved why. It’s becoming such a chore to figure out what to even use these on now…but for the price, I refuse to just let them go to waste 😭

You must’ve bought an imitation of Himi. My himi doesn’t do that kind of quality

The points of himi miya is affordable of course it full of filler and some pigment not actually from real pigment, of course it's not as good as holbein, kuretake, and winsor & newton. Good point i say. What baffled me after reading some comments, is you and comments is bashing people who using himi miya and excuse us?? For newbie artist cult?? Do you feel exclusive senior real artist because you use more expensive stuff? From what i find bunch of people, you called newbie cult have more techniques and more beautiful painting than you and bunch bashing comment here, are you bitter there's a lot new artist is more talented than you guys is sprouts like bamboo shoots of out nowhere and have more viewers than you?

yeesh- you seem a bit bitter. Where do you see all these elitist comments? They were just saying that the other brands are better quality. I don't see anyone bashing newbie artists on here. I think you may need to reevaluate and see where this hostility is coming from....

Reevaluate as you’re the only one seeing what you claim. Your accusations are false and inflammatory.

Calm down, love, it’s only paint. No one is bashing anyone using Himi.
