Meeden reached out and asked me to try out some of their products and so in this video I'm trying out their 4 sets of Fluid Acrylic paints.
Regarding the silver metallic acrylic leaking issue they assure me "while it's rare, if customers receive faulty products, we promptly replace them for free upon receiving feedback"
Regarding the streaking and thinness of the paints I mentioned in this videa, Meeden informed me that most of their paints are positioned as student-grade. Their fluid acrylics are thinned acrylics and may appear somewhat transparent. They're typically suitable for fluid art and layering on other surfaces.
Additionally they also offer regular heavy-body acrylics⬇⬇

Aren’t fluid paints supposed to be thin? Are they supposed to be used for paint pouring or something? I could be wrong.

From what others have been saying I think you're right. But on Meeden's site it also shows them being used for regular painting and so I believed they would've been okay for a video like this. I think the problem I had with them is that they are still supposed to hold a lot of pigment even if they're thinner paints.

I'm in love with the shark. And the raccoon. And the goose. And the goose's signature 🥰 I've been painting a lot of geese lately, but I haven't done a Canada goose yet. Such a fun spread!

Thank you so much!❤ Geese are so fun to draw 👌

the pastels were probably the most opaque because of the white mixed in. I love the way you've used these paints, they almost look like gouache 🥰

Yeah that's what I'm thinking too 👌😊

I think these paints would be better for a different application than sketchbook work, like school projects or 3d crafts like birdhouses or cardboard cat homes. The price point would be great for those things because you could use a lot of paint without worry. Your drawings are freaking adorbs as always ✨️

@augustillustrations 6 ай бұрын

beautiful work as always :D i totally get why you were mixed on these. I think they make a good starter set for anyone new to acrylics but personally for me the streakiness would drive me crazy haha. You did a great job with them! The galaxy beetle is a favorite.

I'm from across the pond in the US, and I've had a metal watercolor palette from Meeden that's served me well for years. And I've seen their watercolors coming over over time. I'm glad to see they're expanding their products, I just hope they continue to work on their formula a bit more. Acrylics can be a fickle thing to paint with on their own as is. I think your paintings are cute, even with the challenges from the paint.

Bahahhahah I love you trying to stay as positive as possible in the video. My guess for the pastels being more consistent is cause you can use Spanish white to give it more body without worrying about lightening the color too much (Do not know if that is the correct translation for the pigment). But just by seeing them I would not reccomend it because while you get a lot of colors, a lot of those you are either not gonna use or you could mix them yourself, and for 33 bucks you could buy 8 colors of an acrilic range with higher quality and get and extra large white and get started with the basics, also you will likely be less frustrated about the streakeness and the transparency. Second sidenote you mentioned all metallic paints being horrible and I have to mostly agreee with you, I have found one that works AMAZINGLY, super thick and metallic but its a proffesional grade paint because I think is one of those colors that you can only get good results by paying for it, I paint a lot of props so to me it was worth it. (The paint is Vallejo Artsit Color Extra Fine Quality acrilic, I use Antique Gold and Antique Silver)

i use potato or corn starch in acrylics or tempera paint to make it thicker because i also use a lot of water with them

The paints themselves could be a good choice for beginners to get use to painting and different techniques if they are that cheap 😊

I have a question to ask if you don’t mind answering ? Do you have a video explaining what you use in your sketchbooks and other stuff. If not I would love and enjoy to see a video explaining what you use in your art. Thank you 😅😊

Oh! I guess that makes sense! Is that all they can be used for?

@mikaylaswansong2204 6 ай бұрын

I was wondering that too! I’ve only heard of fluid acrylic as for acrylic pours. But I don’t know that much about it. I wonder why they would send them to this artist though if she doesn’t typically do acrylic pours?

@@staticwoolI think you still managed to make some beautiful pieces despite working with what seemed to be a difficult medium. Well done! Thank you for sharing your art!
