Hahaha. I started using 4k a few videos ago cause a friend told me to "future proof" my videos if I can. So, I tried 4k. Videos are clearer, but cons are, of course, bigger memory needed and my skin pores are also more visible. 🤣

Yayy. Hi Lindsay. Thank you for watching and for your inputs as well. 😊

Coincidentally, I was just watching Part 4 of your favorite colors. 😄 Thank you.

@@AllanJayQuesada 😆💜

Thank you so much for appreciating my work. It pays all the effort and time. 🙏 😊

Yeah i know that can be confusing.haha. but I really love the PY153 in Qiaomei. 🥰

Thank you so so much! 🙏

Thank you sooo much. 🙏

Oh. Haha. Happy to be of help. 😉

Hi Elisabetta. 🙏 thank you so much. 😊

Yes, that's true. I would like to believe that Paul Rubens is able to manufacture their own real PO49 and that they soon bring genuine Quinacridone Gold pigment in the market, as demanded by artists and not by auto industry. 🙏

It's a Chinese product, don't expect much honesty

@@KobieKthere is a HUGE difference between products that are mass produced in a factory (and a lot of them just so happen to be in China) versus a quality product that is made in China. Don’t confuse all those mass produced items’ quality with a legacy brand like Paul Reubens just because they come from the same country. China is HUGE and just like any country, there are some parts with less money and some parts that are VERY wealthy. Watercolor painting is a Chinese tradition that dates back thousands of years. Paul Reubens is a brand that is well known in China for their quality art aupplies. And of course there at tons and tons of factories in the lower income areas of China that make lower quality art supplies by the dozens. But don’t condemn a pigment, a lab, a brand or a paint just because it is from China. There is good and bad everywhere, and good and bad quality brands from every country. Legacy brands from China like Paul Reubens are not comparable to the mass produced stuff.

@@SwedePotato314 I agree Reubens is pretty legit, I'm very impressed that they put pigment numbers on their soft pastels and oil pastels, which is not necessarily standard in those media. Even more impressive, they appear to use their good, lightfast watercolor pigments for their pastels. Many other companies use pigments of questionable lightfastness in their soft pastels. On the other hand there are clearly some mistakes in the color charts, but I think they mean well!

Thank you. 😁 I'm glad to be back again and again. 🎨

Yes, they are. And i hope they releave open stock so i can get only the rare pigments.haha. Thank you. 🙏

Thank you for always appreciating, Petra. 🙏

Thank you for appreciating my work. I wish I could give you a comparison between Artwhale and Qiaomei, but sadly, Artwhale is still not available from where I am. I hope you get the better set which ever it will be. 🙏

I don't own either but I have seen reviews and feel like I'd definitely go for these over ArtWhale. I am a bit partial to this brand though. What did you decide?

@@jennw6809 I bought Art whale and must say the colors are gorgeous, very pigmented, the only color didnt like is the lemmon yellow, but are so pigmented that I think are going to last forever. They do crackle but that doesnt bother me.

@@mariaalejandracardozo3879 Glad to hear you got some paints! You can always try adding some glycerine or honey when you refill the pans.

Thank you. 🙏 😊 Sorry, I have no idea if these have oxgall. Flow is not extraordinary, so maybe they don't have? Just my guess. 🙏

@@AllanJayQuesada I just heard back from their U.S. distributor that these paints do contain oxgall.

@patticake5311 thanks for sharing the info. If they hadn't put oxgall, these paints could be very steady.

Hahaha. 🐓 those are my neighbor's. 😆

Yes, I agree that they have to many unneeded mixes here. The rare pigments should've been left alone. Reharding Qor vs. White Nights, i don't think WN is better. WN was just shown later in the comparison so sorry for the confusion. But yes, they're alot cheaper and I have explored more of White Nights than Qor. I'm so glad though that Qor now has some new colors. So tempting.

@@AllanJayQuesada Yes, I'm very happy they added Phthalo Blue Red Shade! As well as Perelyne Crimson and Violet.

Ui get well. 🙏

Oh i see. I hope i get to access Turner too, from Japan. 😊

@@AllanJayQuesada Krafer's Paradise stock them. You went there before.

@@markyteo ohh. I did not notice it. 🙏

Hi. I prefer Qiaomei. It has better pigment selection. But if you want professional grades, go for the Paul Rubens 4th generation set. 😊

Graciasssss 💯🙂

They're better in my experience. Academic paints are usually opaque.😉
