My Favorite colors of Derwent INKTENSE pencils

[@Rose-bv6wp]

Thank you so much for this very helpful video. I love the colour combos you demonstrate and it has definitely given me ideas and inspiration for my own colouring. Thank you for taking the time!

[@susankievman642]

Alena, this video was fantastic! So helpful. I have been using Inktense as y favorite pencil set but there are so many combinations for blending that I have never even considered. Your video gave me so many great ideas that I wouldnt have thought of, particularly with the Dusky purples and the Madder brown,red oxide orangey colors. I rarely use Navy but with your combinations, i surely will. Thank you so much for your suggestions!

Thank you Alena. This was very valuable in adding pencils to my 24 pencil set.🔆🔆

[@claudiahemmings2080]

Yay! I've been hoping you'd do this video! I love inktense - the colours are so nice and strong.

[@susankievman642]

You say that you do not like the Mallard color. I understand that because I felt the same way. But recently i blended it with Iron green and it looks quite lovely. Give it a try!

[@ColoringwithAlena]

It's not that I totally dislike Mallard...but there is Teal green in the set which is quite similar... and I use it more often. Thanks for the advice, I'll try to mix Mallard with Iron green!

Hi Alena, you are so talented! Could please send us a link where to purchase the brushes you use when coloring with inktense and watercolors?

[@cilandialane7521]

In the description, Jackson's

[@ColoringwithAlena]

Maria with Inktense I used waterbrushes sometimes, but my recent favorite is Brush Jackson's : Icon : Sable Synthetic Mix Quill No.10/0 goo.gl/19fTur from Jacksons - I use it with watercolors, Neocolors and Inktense. I also like this set Jackson's Icon Brush Set goo.gl/V7MV8N P.S. Cilandia Lane, thank you or your help 💐

Oh my gosh! I was waiting for this video, I requested it! And I was following your tutorial of the Wall of China just earlier and I was thinking " I can't wait for her to do her favorite inktense colors video " Guess I didn't have to wait long lol. THANK YOU

[@ColoringwithAlena]

I wasn't sure about this video... apart from several reds and vivid greens I really like all Inktense... but I tried to mention my most frequently used

@@ColoringwithAlena I'm glad you made it Alena. I find videos like this so helpful. So thank you! Really. I enjoy the color combo series so much.

[@susankievman642]

@@ColoringwithAlena You are right about the reds. I have swatched them and when they are light, most of them look the same. I do love Poppy, Cherry, and Chilli.

[@ColoringwithAlena]

@@susankievman642 I think that reds are my longest Inktense pencils, LOL. I would gladly switch couple of similar reds to better variety of browns

[@susankievman642]

@@ColoringwithAlena You dont color alot of flowers, obviously!

[@susankievman642]

When you mention Cold yellow or Lemon Yellow, you are talking about the INKTENSE Sun Yellow, correct? There is no lemon in the 72 set

[@ColoringwithAlena]

OMG, I'm so sorry! Names on my pencils are faded and not visible...so I babbled something stupid. I meant Sherbet Lemon - my favorite pencil for drawing light. Sun Yellow is also good, but I love combination of slightly colder Sherbet lemon with greens better

Do you use any another brands of watercolor pencils additionally?

[@ColoringwithAlena]

Koh-iNoor Mondeluz, поскольку у них есть оттенки кожи, и проще получить пастельные и нежные тона в дополнение к ярким Инктенсам. Но я не особо часто использую акварельные карандаши.

[@susankievman642]

Do you color with Albrecht Durer watercolor pencils? Will you be doing your favorite colors with those?

[@ColoringwithAlena]

I don't have them so I can't make video, but I assume as they have colors identical to those of Polychromos, I would use the same pencils and color combos

[@susankievman642]

Yes, they have the same colors. And numbers. I imagine the blending is different with colored pencils than watercolor pencils though.When you add water, it changes how it looks and how it blends.

[@ColoringwithAlena]

I know that it's different with watercolor pencils and with intensity of pigment once water is added. But I very rarely use water with watercolor pencils ( I have KIN Mondeluz watercolor pencils and Aquablends by Spectrum Noir), I mostly use them dry. If I need watercolor effect, it's easier for me to use watercolor paints or Inktense
