90 YEAR OLD PAINT vs MODERN WATERCOLORS!

[@KaseyTheGolden]

I've never understood being scared to use new/expensive art supplies... I'm just excited to get in there and try them! I want to use them as they were made to!

[@DoodleDate]

We strive to be as fearless as you Kasey ❤️✨

[@nefertitimontoya]

For me I can be scared of being enlightened and getting attached to expensive things that aren't sustainable to keep purchasing 😂

[@abiislip746]

[@barona_2908]

Kasey Golden I don’t get scared to try new supplies, but new notebooks? Oof. I always worry that what I’ll draw would be too bad for the sketchbook, and I would’ve wasted money

Adam calling steph 'hun' gives me life. SO.CUTE. h E l p

[@rynr.9758]

For some reason, I thought Adam was going to say, "I'm genuinely a Reeves brush".

[@DoodleDate]

I thing we are all genuine brushes deep down!

No wooden box or ANYTHING?!?!

[@lbiwriter]

I am GENUINELY enjoying this Doodle Date!

[@DoodleDate]

YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST

[@monkeydoodles3214]

I was going to comment that. Lol

[@leylacummins7843]

Why can’t people just accept pale cheese for who he is? It really gets me down. If he wants to be called pale cheese, thats his decision and we shouldn’t argue about it.

Is that a Genuine Reeves Brush I see???

[@DoodleDate]

I think we might be seeing *double* ?!?! O:

[@higherground711]

Yes with a genuine Reeves hair falling out of it. 😉

[@jadeartfuljabrickart3442]

A genuinely a good video

I am 100% genuinely happy with this genuine video review

Doodle Date, is she overly scared of social interaction?..

Yep

[@girlgaming1501]

Adam needs his own Watercolour TV show! 😂😂❤️

[@DoodleDate]

LOL What network would even host that kind of show?!

[@chickenman6538]

Every network who wouldn't want to see it!?!

[@eianoodle]

Thinking with Watercolor with Adamoo. Like the Joy of Painting with Bob Ross.

[@elvie2230]

Thinking with watercolours?

[@FinchOnionDip]

It’s definitely a watery mustard and I support this color. Look at it. Like mustard watered down with pickle juice. Beautiful.

[@nhatduy71]

yes the comeback of THE GENUINE REEVES BRUSH

[@DoodleDate]

Finally, another GENUINE VIDEO

[@mac5734]

I *genuinely* wonder if there are going to be genuine reeves brushes involved in this vid👀👀

[@DoodleDate]

I think you will be *genuinely impressed*

[@seancummins1510]

By the way, reeves is a great brand if you want to try a new medium but they’re definitely for beginners (like me :P)

[@vectoriahelnes]

Stephs laugh is the purest thing in the world

[@DoodleDate]

I love Steph’s laugh so much!!

[@Logan_is_bored]

Wow this was a genuinely good video. I love me some good genuine Reeves. My genuine reaction was OMG doddle date vid here 🙃

[@DoodleDate]

This is a most wonderful and *genuine* reaction ❤️

[@whattheflyingfrigde]

When I go in to use a new brush, I use a dot of dish soap and wash them under lukewarm water. (Hot water can loosen the glue that holds bristles in place, just as much as leaving your brushes in water for extended periods of time.) Manufacturers generally starch the brushes so they don't fan out or get damaged in shipping and storage. Hopefully that helps❤❤

[@Lostinthestarfissure]

Amazing how the manufacture of both sets are so different. Wood vs tin vs plastic etc. love the technique Adam uses for eyes!

[@DoodleDate]

The old set is just so adorable! We wish they would make more like those...

[@ditto7139]

OOO ADAM BACK AT IT AGAIN WITH THE YELLOW HOODIE I LOVE IT VERY NICE it might be better if it was a genuine reeves hoodie BUT IT'S STILL GOOD ANYWAY

[@DoodleDate]

OMG HOODIE GOALS

[@ditto7139]

Doodle Date MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY

[@catherinelevison3310]

I’m really glad to hear that watercolors age well because I have a collection of them. And yes, I’d probably save my Arches paper...hoarding it over in the corner. I haven’t even let myself buy any yet. I bought some hot press Straedtmore paper in half sheets but I like that square look the Arches has.

[@_creativeshine_]

This is a extreamly GENUINE comparison

[@hantelopeart4594]

Am I the only one this whole time had genuine reeves watercolours and genuine reeves brushes???

[@DoodleDate]

You are water colouring right my friend!

[@galacticpeaches8200]

I wish someone would call *me* skittle biscuits...

[@DoodleDate]

You are all special skittle biscuits to us!

[@anneloder5898]

I have arches paper that I have had for 3 yrs I afraid I will waste it . I love your palette. Thanks for all you do. I'm a grandma of 7 and I love to find art projects to do with oldest to youngest. Stay sweet and loving Anne

[@crescentpumpkin3483]

Yes please to the new art series of scary expensive supplies. Also, thank you for this genuinely genuine doodle date episode. I'm genuinely pleased to see it in my subscriptions. You're genuinely one of my favorite KZbin channels. Genuinely.

[@fourteencupsoftea1370]

It's pale cheese

[@DoodleDate]

ITS BEEN CONFIRMED

[@starbxi]

Those new reeves paints are the ones we are given in my art classes! Never realised that they arent good bc i dont own any watercolour, encouraged me to maybe invest in a good palette to check things out

[@freyagnoble]

Love that genuine Reeves stuff.

[@valasafantastic1055]

For markers open both ends and use them for a few strokes at least once a year and store them on their sides (horizontally not vertically) that keeps most of them working fine. You can mark marker refresh day on your calendar.Vermillion is a bright red-orange. Be careful of old historic paints as they are even more likely to use heavy metals and dangerous ingredients. However the higher the quality of modern supplies the more likely the ingredients are dangerous so look into it and be careful. Try not to touch paint when you can and rinse off paint you get on your hands a.s.a.p. I know for example that historical vermillion was made with mercuric sulphide and thus had active and dangerous mercury in it that is still toxic if touched when wet or even when dry. So... yeah still use the supplies but take precautions. Also many modern chemicals are not properly tested they are assumed safe.... anyway. Fun video and great concept. Get any Cheeto gold take long brush. Canadian dollar stores and Walmart, etc actually have great brushes for cheap. If a brush is bad toss it and use a better one. White takalon is great too for precision use natural hair for wet techniques only. The old reeves seem more high grade. That brush is bad and the paint is more caked so their is more low quality filler. However depending on your style you make prefer different paints. But that brush is just not workable. Fun video great job.

[@SStwins]

THE GENUINE REEVES... IT'S TOO MUCH

[@DoodleDate]

We would like to add the following disclaimer: This is a *genuinely* good video

[@caitlinnitalboide9418]

I used to use these in school and they used to be *SOOO* expensive. I love your channel and I have been with ye since 150 subs!❤

[@DoodleDate]

WOW maybe they really have fallen from grace!?!

[@QuantMind]

Heck yeah the scared to use supplies series would be neat. Also you guys could try painting with erasers as brushes, I feel like that would be neat!

[@cathrinaandrus1777]

Chartreuse! That strange and lovely color is chartreuse! I'm also surprised that Steph didn't swatch both sets to compare.

[@magargz]

Omg that was my first like "artist" watercolors haha 😂 I bought them when I was 16 and the last year I bought a Windsor and Newton set (the one that almost everyone has) and I was like "omg what I was doing all this time'. Haha so many memories with that reeves set 😍

[@CreativeCreatureCarla]

I've always been more protective of sketchbooks than actual art supplies. Especially if they're the 'fancy' ones. Within the last few months, I wanted to get out of that. So I bought these really nice hardcover sketchbooks, have been sticking stickers all over them (I would use to try and keep the outside of sketchbooks pristine O.o ) and have just been trying new arts, new techniques and such, reminding myself that this is what a sketchbook is for (even 'fancy' ones), it's not going to be a masterpiece every page, you can doodle too. ❤❤❤

[@livezinthemoment]

I'm walking to my last college class before finals, and this really cheers me up. Thank you for doing what you do ♡

[@ellie-anne173]

I love seeing you use all these old art supplies, they're so cool

[@DoodleDate]

It honestly one of our favourite things to try out as well! ❤️

[@oldstrawberrysocks2334]

This is GENUINELY pure

[@lilwindex7219]

I always get so happy when I see you guys posted a video!!!

[@DoodleDate]

Oh gosh thank you so much Carmen!! We hope you enjoy todays video as well!

[@landirover]

In my personal opinion, the old paints fit Adam's style more, but the new paints were the better paints for Steph's style. Loved the video x

[@mjpete27]

I think that student grade was better Year’s ago than they are today, so many more fillers in today’s paint and extenders too! I enjoy watching your videos with the “vintage” paints! Keep them coming!

[@eyrnl1791]

Always happy to see you guys post!!

[@DoodleDate]

You’re so sweet to use Eyrn!! Thank you for joining us today!

[@Fulano5321]

I'd love to see an art supply break-in video!

[@beebs_bobo]

With the new water colours. If you want it to be really opaque you should stir it with ur brush so it collects more pigment. My art teacher told me this in school❤️ Love You Guys So Much!!!

[@madisongray4834]

Omg just when I thougt the word genuine would never be used again. Then GENUINELY GENUINE GENUINENESS

[@DoodleDate]

WE DID IT AGAIN MY FRIEND

[@withneama]

Perfect video! and I do the same with the fact of being scared of using new paper, but not with other art supply! :)

[@shirleydowning4798]

Excellent water coloring Adam!

[@AprilJF]

I love the colors from the 90 year old palette. Either it is the aging like you guys said or the pigments used have changed over time. There must be paint making advancements after almost a century or at least I would think there would be?

[@camilleguimbard1252]

So excited to watch this! Also I have genuine reeves pencils 😏

[@DoodleDate]

Now those are some genuinely fancy pencils ya got there O:

[@camilleguimbard1252]

Doodle Date The most genuine art pencils on Earth

[@AxiomEcho]

I googled top artists on KZbin and you guys popped up at the top!! That's exciting and I'm happy you guys are getting the followers you deserve!!

[@bobhalowell7688]

The old paints seem to activate more like tube paints. I regularly use Reeves tube paints and the Reeves red tin with the dry cakes, and I like them both. There is nothing wrong with the quality of the paints in the red tin; they just need to be hydrated a little more than the tube paints, and were intentionally designed to work like this. I love to use a medium Pentel water brush with the Reeves red tin paints. Together the Reeves red tin and water brush are a great travel set. You can mix the paint from the red tin in the lid of the red tin. The paints will not look chalky if you dilute them correctly. If you apply several washes or use too small of a brush for the area you are painting the result might look chalky. You both make nice video together, and your artwork is really nice!

[@Safirentwiluea]

Hey!! I have seen a good quality wooden boxes from reeves. It's just that they focus on tubes rather than pans now. So I recon the options are quite limited if you are searching for a reeves watercolour pans set.

[@Keithlynd_]

I love the sound effect before Adam said "lack of quality" 😂😂😂 also I really love the lady Steph painted with the old watercolour. The colours are beautiful

[@seancummins1510]

Oh thank god BOTH of the palettes were genuine. I hate it when those low-lifes use winsor and newton or even schminke!

[@DoodleDate]

Quality Art materials only THANK YOU

[@salem5953]

I feel like Adam is getting better each video, practice does really make a difference

[@silva774]

That brush reminds me of my Royal Talens brush, the first time I used it, it shed hair all over my page and I've literally never used a brush worse than that :D

[@Sara-re5es]

I'm pretty sure I use those paints in school too and i would love a series about art supplies you're scared to use.

[@DoodleDate]

OMG I’m so happy someone else has noticed this!! LOL

[@misterkim4808]

I was trying to find a baking recipe but I will just watch this video and make it up as I go along ♡

Aww! We hope you create something awesome, Molly! :D

[@sophieg2106]

[@Pixiewithpens]

not to be dramatic but since i know you might not be able to do as many videos as usual for the upcoming period, every new video feels like such a gift :') i GENUINELY appreciate you so much and i hope you're doing as well as possible! i only get scared to use new art supplies if they were expensive/hard to get hold of because then i feel a bit of pressure. i'd love a series like that tho, breaking in new stuff, i've enjoyed the first impressions of art supplies from you guys in the past :) xx

[@LucyCosens]

Yessssss I have been waiting for AGES! Love your styles! I am sure this video is going to be a good one just like the other. Ok I am going to go and watch the video now lol

[@crystal-cluster]

You should do the video series with using supplies you're afraid to use, that'd be so cool!

[@alexzandriae.9632]

I’m sometimes nervous to use new art supplies, but it depends on what it is. When I got my watercolor set, I wouldn’t use it until Christmas when someone accidentally gave me the same set. Then I had two so I was okay with using it. I immediately used my Ohuhu markers tho, I was excited to use them

[@marielacristina762]

Great idea for art and scary supplies serie!!!

[@akea8011]

[@chloerochester4809]

We use them paints at our school and if you add quite a bit off water and let it soak in it turns like a paste. It’s really weird

[@shallremainnameless1998]

There's a lot of budget watercolour paints that are packaged under different names but probably all come out of the same factory as the paint cakes look identical. The old ones might be made with pigment but the new paints could be dye based.

[@TheHaleyPhenomonoms]

I haven't gone to sleep since the stream because I wanted to catch this video when it was uploaded. I'm committed.

[@DoodleDate]

MONMTY YOU MADMAN

[@RainandGiraffes]

I actually got some reeves brushes and I'm happy with them. They keep the shape and doesnt stay bended as yours do. Paintbrusheses that do that are really annoying. But not all reeves do that. I'm fairly new to watercolors so I haven't tried that many brushes. But reeves is my favorites from all the ones I have =)

[@janae23]

I love it when Adams face randomly like curves I DIEEEEED FROM LAUGHING

[@franchieL]

Thinking with watercolors, with your host, Smug Lad Adam. :)) Also Steph, speaking of Netflix series that are strangely engaging, try Terrace House! Literally they just put have people try living in a house together but in general go on about their daily lives. You also have hosts that comment on the progress of the people living inside, and they have a fun dynamic with each other. Pretty simple, but fairly engaging. Give it a try! :)

[@DoodleDate]

OMG we watch this as well LOL The places they get to stay in are so pretty ✨❤️

[@franchieL]

Nice! And I agree, not just the house, but even the area. There are so much interesting places that are close to the house they live in. :D
