[@MS-zo8tp]

student grade and pro watercolor pans are all individually wrapped if they're any good. You can purchase individual replacement pans without having to buy an entirely new set - AND if the paint gets beat up or crumbles a little in shipping, it won't contaminate *all your other pans* that way. Edit: A few tips, ADC -- Spray the paints with some water before you start painting to activate them. Use the white of the paper instead of the chinese white, and lighten colors by adding MORE water rather than white paint. Work from light to dark. If you're trying to cover a larger area with a small brush, wet the area of the paper you want to fill with water first, then go back in with paint on the brush while the paper is still wet. It'll eliminate some of that streakiness. The Backruns with the cheap paint are unavoidable, BUT you can minimize them by figuring out which pigments in the cheap paint are more 'aggressive' and not placing them too close to sections of other colors that are still damp.

[@otterlylost2029]

Just adding on that when I was taking art in school, I was always also told to have two cups of water. One for washing my brush and the other for activating the paints. I admit, I've only seen him testing the watercolors so I dont know if he swaps to two cups of water. I also dont know how true that holds but the logic that my art teacher gave me was having clean water to activate the paint with meant you weren't muddying and contaminating your other colors, a very real concern with pan water colors.

[@isabellehrlich646]

@@otterlylost2029 my preference most days is to use a water brush and have a rag handy (though most of my watercoloring is more on the go sketches anymore)

[@pfunpfrau]

Also, the point of the tiny brush is so you can take the whole set with you fairly easily.

[@annnoyez]

All true if you want to use them like it should... lol. But I don't think it was his intention. I think he used the wrong paper. It looks like cardboard or something. If you use good watercolor paper, the paint react differently. Now the paint soaked immediately in the paper and I think that's why you got that streakines. I used these cheap paints before and yes you can work with them, but the chalkines.... and once you used the good stuff it's hard to go beg to the cheap material lol

[@annnoyez]

@@pfunpfrau there is room for a slightly thicker brush. But they have to make a choice. Mine in the command series was thicker. It was a round 6. And I only use it when I go away and take my little sketchbook. But most of the time I take my 48 pan pallet that is stuffed with extra pans everywhere I can... lol and I take my regular brushes. I have a big handbag so I can have it to take a lot with me lol...

[@JoeAuerbach]

My wife does watercolor, and she has a couple of those sets. And my understanding is that they are individually wrapped so that different sets can come with different colors, but also so that you don't have to buy a whole new set just to get the one color that you've used. That is, The Replacements are packaged exactly the same way as the original

[@Kitthecatgod]

Thank you, I was wondering as well!

[@lilydrawsart5756]

This is the exact reason. You can replace them as you go and get new colors to mix and match.

The Winsor and Newton brush is meant to be a travel size one so you can just take the little palette with you with a piece of paper and do some plein air painting. I agree that it's not the best for large paintings though.

[@kindululu]

It's made to be used with a pocket sketchbook, so in theory 3.5x5 inches roughly size canvas paintings. and should be used with watercolor paper for best results.

[@vampjezzcM]

As a watercolor artist myself, i definitely predict the cheaper one will not win in the end. Also just love that you included watercolor! :) Love this series :)

[@mismonsta]

*Edit, my choice stands!* I agree! But it has a strong start! If you do watercolor in the future, ADC, fresh water is your friend cause the pigments will carry in the brush hair. And I'm halfway through so he hasn't said yet, but the paper is definitely a factor. Aha! Watercolor paper. (Still even within that, there are VAST differences in paper, but I'm glad it wasn't sketch paper). It would be interesting to see you use the same materials, but switch the brushes. 🤔

[@edgeyberzerker]

Watercolors are my jam! The cheap ones might have a bit of tempra in them for the chalky or it's just filler? With the Winsor & Newtons, they're individually wrapped so if you run out of one colour, they actually have refills. Also if you use the Winsor & Newton pen before painting, it doesn't bleed just so long as you let it settle on the page (much like before using markers). You might be the only person in the world who loves that little plastic brush that came with the cheap ones lol!

[@LindzTheLooneyOfLondon]

The cotman range is a student grade and is what I would recommend anyone wanting to get into watercolours, the consistency is like professional watercolour pans just using more synthetic pigments, please give your kids a set like this as the dollar store ones are so infuriating to use and give watercolour a bad name as well as can make you go off using watercolour.

[@ADCArtAttack]

I must protest that this specific cheap set were pretty special, but usually I say parents should ALWAYS invest in quality supplies to properly teach children. I never studied and my first experiences came late in life due to lack of quality growing up.

[@claudioschumi87]

I agree with ADC sometimes cheap product can be way better than the expensive stuff and this is why ADC does really interesting concepts on cheap v expensive to give others who are new to certain products better info which isn't a bad thing. But don't get me wrong the saying "what you buy is what you get" is kinda true but not all the time imo.

[@LindzTheLooneyOfLondon]

@@ADCArtAttack whilst I agree your cheap set was good as a paint it wouldn’t give you the ability to do the same things as a professional watercolour. Those are hard to mix, create a consistent colour wash … they also will quickly fade in many cases. That is all fine for throwaway art of day a young child but the reason it’s worth investing is that if you want a good watercolour to practice watercolour with. And by this I want to make it clear that I am talking washes. Layering without staining I would always recommend the cot man set, I agree that the brush in that set is tiny but as it’s a sketch set it’s a travel brush used for sketching rather than block filling, most watercolour uses a mix of brushes for different jobs that would be considered a fine liner so wouldn’t have the amount of water retention as you don’t need it. The set you had is designed to go field sketching which is why you have a loop underneath to let you hold it securely as you paint. Oh you asked why the individual wrapping it’s because it protects the paint as moisture can make them sticky. A further reason to choose a set like that is environmental as you can replace individual pans or alter that paint palette to your own needs, rather than having to buy another whole set. I guess what I am trying to say is that watercolour painting uses a lot of different techniques which the cheap pallets can’t do. (The cheap sets tend to be due based rather than natural pigment so they don’t work the same for example if you want to lift colour or create a wash or layering technique )I think in truth there needs to be a distinction between a water soluble paint and a water colour paint as the two are very different things. The cot man range is probably Google’s most recommended as it is an affordable set to get into watercolour painting especially when a single half pan of paint (which is the size in your set) can cost over £8. I am not though disagreeing with your perspective if you just want a water soluble paint it’s fine. It is not however., a great paint for watercolour. Sadly I learnt that the hard way as like you I am not professionally trained and I bought paints that style but sold by the craft stores as watercolours only to become frustrated that I couldn’t follow the techniques used for water colouring I hope this explains why I made my comment, as it pains me that I spent so much on products over the years that are sold a bit misleadingly or come to that they were very misleading ! I love your videos very much thank you for sharing your creativity, experience and mad art skills with us

[@LindzTheLooneyOfLondon]

@@claudioschumi87 hi the only reason I say this is as I’ve put as a longer reply to adc is that when it comes to watercolours there are a lot of techniques you use that can’t be done with this style of paint. These paints are amazing considering pound sets I’ve bought but they are totally different to the style of paint watercolorists use, for example these paints are more likely to use a dye rather than a pigment so it’s not possible to manipulate the paint in the same way. I got so frustrated trying to teach myself with similar paints to the cheap set but sold by craft stores at a premium as watercolours which is why i recommended cotman for anyone wanting to get into proper watercolour painting. As a student set they are really cheap when one paint the same size in that set at professional level csn cost up to and sometimes more than £10. I think the problem is that people like me see the cheap sets and don’t realise that there’s a huge difference between a water soluble paint and a watercolour paint. Which is why like you I love these comparison videos as they let you see the difference x I hope this explains my original comment x

[@annnoyez]

@@LindzTheLooneyOfLondon very true... my grandkids may use my watercolor paints when they come and they love it. I guides them and try to make the painting they make beautiful. kids should use good materials, but not on their own. My kids did a lot of art, and used my stuff. And I tried to learn them things they didn't learned at school... but when they were painting on their own that cheap watercolor was good enough... I use schmincke, senelier and Qor. And I prefer schmincke above all... As tip I can say, buy a Corman and if you like watercoloring, everytime a pan is empty replace it with a professional grade paint. At the end you will have a whole set of high quality paint without to invest that money in 1 time. And save up money. Ask money for birthdays and Xmas gifts. Or give them a clue what you want... like I want arches paper for my birthday, or a pan or 2 professional paint. Or that kind of brushes. Or ask for a gift card from your local artstore... once people find out you are really happy with it, that you can be excited to receive 2 tiny little pans if paint, they are relieved that you are a person they know what to give as gift... lol. I should go to sleep... I am talking to much lol

[@ayarosen1035]

This is why the W&N are individually wrapped: they are sold separately so people can either create their own set or replenish a pan when running low. The reason the brush is so tiny is that this set is meant for quick on location paintings, that are usually about postcard size. As you said, the cheap set aren't watercolor but a type of gouache or poster paint. In order to create watercolor, you need to use a transparent binder, so the paint doesn't come out opaque, also, the pigment needs to be of a better quality to preserve the translucent effect.

It’s great that people don’t have to have a lot of money to encourage their kids creativity. Windsor and Newton isn’t expensive and is well worth the cost, but some families really just don’t have that extra capacity to spend. In which case the halfway decent cheap sets aren’t going to kill off a kids joy for painting. Then as they get older they can start to try better quality stuff and appreciate the improvement in quality.

You fill these up with water, mix your colour (with a diff brush), and then suck up your colour into the brushpen. Talk about control over custom colours as well as gradients during application! Cheers, MB. ...oh! And use more of a dry brush technique as this will be closer to your markers.

There is a clear difference in quality. Awesome demo.

Within 30 mins. I think that still counts as early?. Anyway, great video! Loved the finished piece

The individual wrapping is important to prevent drying out. Plus, if you use up all of one colour (e.g. blue) or you want to customize your colours, then you simply buy that one pan rather than a whole set.

Been waiting for this video for a long time

I like mixing with those red brushes from the first water colour pac

[@marth922]

when you use a smaller brush for watercolors, one of the big things you have to get used to is using more pressure and using the belly of the brush to cover a larger area, rather than scrubbing only the tip of the brush across the area many times. That took me a long time to get used to

I’m using Windsor & Newton water colors and they’re certainly one of the best out there. Here in Germany we actually differ from „water color“ and „aquarell colors“ bc the latter will last longer and not lose color (more UV resistant).

the spensive but I dont use water colour paint as it always misbehaves for me. I loved the sam and Bucky series :)

[@annjensen8669]

An idea: use the expensive water colors, but comparing brushes.

[@PabloYaggi]

you should swap the brushes and give it another try ! cheap brush with expensive paint and the other way around. great video !

Pretty much all student and professional grade pan watercolor sets tend to be individually wrapped. I think it is more so because they tend to sell pans both open stock and in sets they just package them all the same, plus it ensures you know what color each one is without any doubt. I would recommend the crayola over the more chalky cheap watercolors. Cotman paints are also student grade watercolors. I am not a fan of the cotman 12 ct pan set, more so because the colors I ended up with were more muted than I would have liked. They aren't bad paints, just not my favorite. There is a newer product which is the derwent inktense pans, they are similar to watercolor, but they don't lift much at all.
