So ridiculously overpriced!! I customized and made my own board with magnets, straps and a cutout for my waterpot for under $10 and mine is waaay nicer than his are.

Which one is better this set or the Holbein set from the other video?
@watercolor.wyloeck16 күн бұрын
personally I would go for the Holbein set, because those have more granulation and especially a nicer color separation on the page - personal opinion of course 🙂

1.2 euro per tube! It goes to show how much of a slavery system we live in in the west. On top of the criminal tax theft by the government, we get price gouging by businesses! But of course the higher the price the more the VAT tax so the government loves it when businesses add unethical markups!!

I like van Gogh watercolors a lot. For a student grade, they work a lot better than the cotmans and even some of the white nights. The colors of your palette are great! Do you have the complete line? Cheers from Brazil.

@watercolor.wyloeckАй бұрын
Hi - thanks for the reply! Oh no, not at all actually - these boards are light as a feather on themselves. I guess it does depend a bit on how big/heavy the sketchbook will be that you're gonna use, and perhaps also how big/heavy the paint palette will be, because that all adds up together for the final weight, but in terms of the board itself, there's hardly any noticeable difference in weight between those 2 versions... They really are very lightweight.

These colors are better tested on a little bit larger areas, as they need mire space to do their magic. Also quite a bit more water will make them really shine. As far as the name "Witch Bordeaux" goes, the color looks a lot like blood, both wet and dry, so it probably reminded the makers of witchcraft and the fact that witches were said to often have used blood in their potions...just a guess.😉

I was able to hunt down this set of 24 Harmonia paints on the Japanese Amazon site, if anybidy is interestwd. Here in Europe it is not sold anywhere at all. BUT on the Japanese Amazon site you will have to create an account, as they do not recognize existing foreign accounts. But then I was able to order them, as well as 2 sets with 3 tubes each of the Chinese Super Vision paints. They are all way too expensive ob Ali Express. Amazon Japan mails via DHL Express, which only took a few days to arrive in Europe.

After having seen these, the Holbein and the Chinese Super Vision paints I am thinking that the term "granulation" is mostly used for the multi-color effect in these, and not so much for the grainy, texture-like look that we refer to as granulation.

very useful to see an actual paint out of these. i have only seen the holbein instagram images. which seem to show almost impossible depth of colour and colour separation. i would be interested to know... have you seen these images, and - having now had real world use of the paints - if you think that amount of colour separation could be achieved? thanks for producing this.
@watercolor.wyloeck2 ай бұрын
Hi - I'm so glad you liked it, and found it useful. I have indeed seen Holbein's instagram posts on these colors, and I have to say, the vibrancy of the colors really is spectacular, but the color separation is not at all what I was able to achieve. Perhaps I need to re-do the swatching and give the paints bigger boxes and more water to separate in... A more wet-in-wet swatching might be a good idea...
@davejohnson53652 ай бұрын
@@watercolor.wyloeck thanks for your reply, I agree on your points about bigger area, and more water. Also looking again at the Instagram images, in each case holbein appear to have diluted a very large amount of paint in a bowl containing a large amount of water. This may also be a clue as to how they got some way towards their separation results, although it is a very expensive method to test out in the real world. Still not convinced that y159 can be separated so cleanly from a mix containing bk6 and b16 though - as in their hazy moon yellow photo. All v intriguing though.
