TRYING MOLOTOW PAINT MARKERS ✷ how do they compare to posca?

[@imawonder]

I'll be doing a livestream here on KZbin Tues. Dec 29, 1PM (EST)! Hope to see you there! :D

the whole spread is super pretty, I wouldn’t have thought all those colors would look sooo good together wow!

[@imawonder]

Aww thank you! It's fun to experiment with different colour palettes!

[@alisha967]

@@imawonder yes I need to do that more often! I usually use a limited color palette that I’m used to, but this is inspiring me to branch out!

Coating the page with gesso is such a great idea! I do a similar thing when I use gouache in sketchbooks that aren't mixed media sketchbooks, I've found that if I put a thin layer of acrylic down I can then layer a bunch of gouache on top without the page being destroyed (however with some kind of gouache there may be some patchiness in the first layer. This is just a fun tip for sketchbook studies and the like)

The idea of using white gesso to combat the paper peeling off problem is such a genius idea! I'll definitely try this in the future. Lovely work as always 🥰

Yay glad to provide some tips! Thanks so much :D

Sanding Gesso is also very important to maintain the health of your brushes since the rough surface wears them down so fast! Also makes it so much of a joy to paint on, as with the markers ♥

[@imawonder]

That's a good point!! I definitely prefer sanded gesso for painting in general as well!

[@Cristinarting]

I have no idea why this was showed up to me as it says “Not listed” and I think it’s for Friday’s video but it just did!😳😳 I love your work💕

Would love to see you try the tooli-art paint markers! They have a line of brush tip paint markers that I love, and they just released two new color packs with the brush tip. I wish more people knew about them! (The ones without the brush tip are really hard, they are meant for rock painting, but the brushes are perfect in my sketchbook!)

Liquified clear gesso is super textured, almost gritty. There is a clear gesso by Dina wakely that is much smoother. I use it under most posca drawings.

[@akansha2130]

I love that the spread on the left page has the bi flag colors! :)

[@imawonder]

Omg you're right!! I didn't even realize haha love that!

When you watch this video in May and think imawonder isn't going to be making videos until the new year :O

[@ohsillybeans]

Taking photos of your art during each paint session is also good for progress report.

[@mikscribbles]

i adore your marker style! the way you use coloured lineart is so aesthetically pleasing. that being said, while this is super inspiring and i would love to try some more flat, graphic styles, paint markers feel like so much more work than the other mediums i use (they probably aren't, but the concept of having to lay down gesso and sand it really doesn't appeal to my lazy butt lmao). i think to achieve the same effect i might just keep playing with gouache haha

[@imawonder]

Thanks so much! Oh definitely, you can totally achieve near exact results with gouache for sure! And when filling in large areas using the paint markers it can get a little tedious haha (even with a medium size nib)

[@CannabisIsMedicineUK]

I found them really streaky too, and the colour wasn’t mixed properly either even though I shook the, a lot.. I love the colours as I prefer more muted ones, it I was really dissatisfied with them

[@aartadventure]

I received a couple in art boxes and really enjoyed that they were double ended. I almost bought more, but now I'm glad I didn't. The streakiness factor ruins it for me.

[@MissEmmyJay]

The colors are super pretty and your art style is even prettier! It’s just super satisfying to look at. I hope more people get to enjoy it!

[@nienkevletter]

Lovely video again! I use both Posca and Molotow as well, for me Molotow wins because of the refillable element (especially when doing client work, having so many half empty Posca's after a while 😅). Great idea of the gesso, I'm definitely gonna try that. Enjoy your well deserved break! ✨

I have found that some mokotow regularly need multiple minutes of shaking, especially pastels. The good thing is that you can see into the barrel to see if it separated.

[@wunderkind2204]

the different shades are so strange, i never had this problem with mine.... i love them for their different sized nibs. what I can recommend: shake them longer than you would with the poscas. the pigment needs more of a shake to not be streaky anymore. I like them on paper made from stone, they feel kind of "dry" on gesso.

[@imawonder]

Yea I definitely will be mindful to shake them thoroughly next time!

[@Sheeshoosheebaa]

Ahh I loved this video!!!

[@punipunistuff]

Enjoy your off time Girl, you deserve it.

[@imawonder]

AW thank you so much T^T

[@leviw4990]

I love both posca and molotow and mostly use them together. But I would recommend to someone starting out with paint markers to go with posca as I do find the markers more consistent and the need less shaking up. Also I think that poscas' limited colour selection is actual a positive as almost all of the colours work well together making cohesive colour schemes easier.

[@imawonder]

I totally agree!

[@CreativeGirlofColor]

Super cute spread honey 😀💖💖

[@imawonder]

Thank you so much 😀

[@MainlyBoredom]

I'll be honest with you, the streakiness is NOT because of the duel ended nib. I so wanted to like them more because they're refillable but the paint quality is so... questionable. Extremely inconsistent. I bought one of the Molotow sketchbooks to see if I have better luck with them on their paper but I'm not hopeful.

[@imawonder]

Yea I've played around with them a little more after this video and inconsistent is definitely the right word for the paint. Sometimes it's great and sometimes super watery - but seems like people are saying they need like minutes of shaking which is kinda annoying hahaha

I would love to see you draw Roronoa Zoro from one piece in your style, just a suggestion 😀

[@hbkglodup7522]

Molotow products are highly pigmented they ground the pigments down 3x to a very fine, powdery consistency. I guarantee they execute this process for their spray paint and paint markers, not sure about their other products, but in pretty sure its a 360 deal. I know this because i had a friend who moved to Germany in pursue of a career in art, and ended up working for the company. I used to have your same problems with the markers until i realized you must shake them for a good 3 mins brand new and also through out your process. Slighlty depressing the nib every now n then even if not needed. Easier done than said lol got sick of going broke from buying Poscas every damn time they ran dry and i draw alot so lol now i got more cash in my pocket. Not a knock on Poscas i still love n work with them

[@gabbywilliamson76]

Just wondering if the gesso contributed to the streakiness.

[@imawonder]

I've tried both Posca and Molotow on another paper (not gessoed) and had the same experience

[@briannag7658]

how do you flat wash your painting please respond?

[@layawatts6337]

I looked it up, and they said her was pronounced "heh-cot-tee" Tho I'm sure it will vary, the guy in the video was greek, so I trust him, lol!

[@JaneeNegron]

I took a greek/roman mythology class and my professor pronounced it heck-a-tee so thats how I always said it lol 🤷

[@WorrilessWildflower]

Instead of gesso could I use something like moge poge?

[@imawonder]

I've heard Modge Podge can be a little bit tacky after it's dry but I've heard you could also use a Matte Medium if you don't have Gesso :)
