Thank you, yes, I did my best with it! When I picked somewhere to do a quick sketch I had remembered the building as being a bit more interesting than it actually is. A different angle would’ve been better, but there was a big group of boys sitting where I’d have needed to be so I stayed incognito!

Thanks for watching another of my videos! Much appreciated. I can repost it slowed down if you like?

I’m planning to record a few more of these as I do them throughout winter, in which case I’ll record them on both Timelapse and normal settings in future. x

Thank you for watching. I’ve searched and searched and can’t find anywhere where it says definitively what the angle is, but comparing it by eye to my Sailors, it looks closer to the 40° than the 55°. Sorry I can’t be more precise, if I find out I’ll update here.

As mentioned below, it's a great set BUT it will bloat and expand when the water reservoir is left with water in it. I suspect it's simple evaporation expansion. In hindsight, I should have emptied it when not using it for prolonged periods of time. So... there it is; golden advice! Empty when not in use, particularly when left for prolonged periods. Another point is, it takes about a week (irony!) to drip the water into the attached wash container from the reservoir. It really does 'drip-drip-drip' out... but hey... nothing's perfect, right!? 😉👌
@emmavjsketch
@emmavjsketch Ай бұрын
Thank you, I’ll empty mine when I’ve got a few days to spare! ;-) As I mention in the video, I find the plastic W&N one so much easier because you can squeeze it to get the water out. I might treat myself to the proper Whiskey Painter one some day… Anyway, thank you so much for watching and commenting and the helpful info!

@emmavjsketch
@emmavjsketch Ай бұрын
Hi, thank you for watching, I’m glad you found it interesting. I’m not quite sure which green ones you mean, but here are the different types I have. The food clips are the best in my opinion as they don’t dent the paper. The gold ones are nice and big and fit a lot of pages in (they’re great when I use my Stablo board) but I wish they had a hole in the bit you squeeze (technical term haha). Only a minor irritation - but I find it handy to clip my water pot etc. onto something in my rucksack but you can’t with these. The tiny bulldog clips (or binder clips) are ok but they are very small and can dent the paper a bit. amzn.eu/d/1e9qYlN amzn.eu/d/9Np40Zu amzn.eu/d/eVHFq90 amzn.eu/d/7EEvFo8 Are any of these the ones you meant?

Hi! I have had this box from schmincke for a long time and I have to say that even when I really loved it and used it a lot, it started to bend over time and got inflated and suddenly it wouldn’t close anymore, so I had to modify it by cutting the pieces of metal inside and leaving it all a flatter surface. It still works, but I can’t fill it with water anymore or it does bloat again. Thanks for the review and love your channel!

Strange...I just saw another Utube about this box and the same thing was happening - it was swelling out forcing the pans up at an angle stopping the lid from closing. I hasnt happened mine yet but I rarely use the water reservoir. Probably gases in the water expanding. I must remember never to leave water sitting in there for prolonged periods of time.

Depending on destination it might be worth taking an empty pen with you and buying ink on arrival if you are reasonably sure of being able to find some. I’d love to see a follow up about what you used on the trip. One of my favourite of activities is to take a relatively random selection of items with me and have to make do, but that isn’t for a holiday (I don’t go these days) just for short stroll’s when I might be sketching, so lower stakes.

Thank you, yes that is a good idea. Unfortunately on this occasion I was in a fairly remote village on a lesser known Greek island (or fortunately, whichever way you look at it 😉!), and there were barely any food shops nearby, never mind art supply shops! But otherwise that’s definitely something to consider, thank you. I am planning a follow up in a few weeks, I must say I did miss my usual pens but 'made do' with the Microns. I know a lot of people who love them so it’s just personal taste I guess. That’s also a great idea about the random items, thanks - I might try it myself.
