O.Win (Student) Watercolor Cakes Review : Is it better than Superior Watercolors?

[@AllanJayQuesada]

👋👋🥰🎨 For those who are new to my channel, i suggest you watch the entire (lengthy review) video, because the answers to your questions are most likely provided along the way, both visually and verbally. My reviews (esp. the newer ones) have this sequence of portions if you want to jump to a specific topic.: 0. Greetings👋 1. Product info: (price, seller, shipping time, unboxing, box and product description, etc.) 2. Swatching, (paper is always Arches 185 cold pressed cotton paper, brushes vary, but I love my travel brushes) 3. Sample painting process, (landscape samples, peeling of tape, closer look) 4. Comments about the paints (color selection, is it opaque/chalky/muddy/vibrant/transparent/flowy/heavy etc. 5. Side by side COMPARISON with other brands (available to reviews starting starting June 2019).) 6. Verdict. Do I recommend the brand/set? (Is this set for you? Strengths and weaknesses? Suggestions) 7. Announcements, farewell and gratitude. 🙏🎨☺️

Is it chalky and transferable?

Hi Allan, I really love your comparisons, since I subscribed to your channel I've always watched your reviews before I bought a new watercolor set. (I've bought Pretty Excellent and Sonnet by your reviews, and a few of my Van Gogh paints too. 😉). I have some recommendations for you to review: Daler Rowney Aquafine and Simply (former is a good student grade imo, latter is cheap and would land on the bottom of your stack for sure) www.amazon.com/Daler-Rowney-131900001-Aquafine-Watercolour/dp/B07JFMZLRL/ www.amazon.com/Daler-Rowney-Aquafine-Travel-pack/dp/B00GLXW0VM/ www.amazon.com/Daler-Rowney-Simply-Watercolour-Tubes/dp/B002OCAZKM/ Royal Langnickel Artist Paint (excellent imo) www.amazon.com/Royal-Langnickel-Watercolor-Artist-18-Pack/dp/B009PLMVY8/ I've bought this set after I got so disappointed in the Daler Rowney tube set and they are excellent paints, especially for this price. 18x21 ml artist watercolor for $13.19? 😊 Mont Marte (student grade imo, but pretty) www.amazon.co.uk/Mont-Marte-Watercolour-Half-24pce/dp/B07GR4RCJC/ I would love to see your reviews on these paints. Wish you all the best and thank you for your videos! 😊💖

Hello, Peggy. I think I've seen that being reviewed by another artist here on KZbin, Frugal Crafter if I'm not mistaken.. i wonder why paul Rubens has to repackage the Sonnet paints for their line when they make some good and affordable themselves.. hmm. Yes, unfortunately, Shopee doesn't ship to US yet. 😔

Loved this info on these new paints. My favourite bit is when you do the comparison with other pallets I always learn something or maybe you just jog the old memory. I use superior paints quite a bit I love the brightness you get with them, will wait for the next video on the bigger set of O.Win to see what you think of them although I’m very tempted to buy them as these paints are so pretty and I love how bright they are.

Since this is inexpensive and considered a crafty set, I don't have much concern on the lightfastness.

Hi Allan! I had another question....i read a review about these watercolors saying they feel chalky when u layer them so if u could confirm that, that would be really helpful Also i love how patient u r with ur subscribers like u answer all of our questions....I really thank you for that

[@dayangnasaphragragas2585]

Following this question

[@AllanJayQuesada]

hi Fatima and Dayang. sorry if i couldn't attend to each question right away as I got many, and they come in random in the day and also i have work too. well, better late than never, so here I am. 😉 for me, chalky means literally like chalk. like 5he paints don't stick well on paper even when dry, that they dry like soft powder and transfer to the next page or smudge on your finger.. that's how i understand chalky, and so far, i haven't experienced that yet at O. Win. i did a chalky test, but for some reason, (my bad) it wasn't included in this video. that might have elominated the doubts, but yes i can confirm, it's not chalky in mh experince. there are other factors though that may make a paint chalky, even if itnis already on a Daniel Smith level.. that could be a very low quality paper or very thick paint application. watercolors, traditionally should be used thinly or in light layers so, this should also be observed. i hope ive answered your question well. 🙏

Hey Allan I love your channel! I really appreciate how thorough your reviews are. I find them quite soothing. You deserve more subscribers! I have a couple ideas for videos if you're interested... how about a tour of your studio/workspace? It would be nice to see your setup.(I have a small desk in my small bedroom lol) And a tour of your watercolor collection? Show us where you store everything and which ones you keep on hand for daily use. I'm still working on watching all of your videos lol I just recently invested in some artist quality watercolors; Da Vinci brand. They sell 37ml tubes!! They are a California, US company so they might not be available to you. Have you heard of them? :) I hope you're doing well. Merry Christmas from Pennsylvania

[@AllanJayQuesada]

Hiii. ☺️ Thank you. 🙏 I am actually itching to do a worspace tour now, but just like you, my setup is a small space in my bedroom, and my bedroom is only 9 square meters. Hahaha. That is not the main issue. Lol. My room is a mess. Hahaha. Like literally a stereotype artist room. Lol but yes, it's bme resolution tob fix everything so that it would be atleast presentable and more friendly for working. Hehe. About the collection tour, i got tons of paints, my floor space is not literally enough if i had to spread them down.. ao i need to sytematize it too. Plus, i still have paints coming and paints from the christmas shoppibg that i hadnt opened yet.. so in short, i need to settle my things first. Hahaha. But I feel the excitement already doing your suggestions. ☺️ Please be patient in my older videos (2018 to early 2019), they're super low quality, unedited/poorly edited and full of errr. Haha. Yess, DaVinci paints. I have 12 37mls and 12 15mls. I love them, and also some of my followers here have tried them because ive poured in pans and sold aome sets in my store. Well, 37ml is quite alot. Haha. But im thinking of ordering again another 12 because of the color Artrmis. I just love that shade similar to Moonglow of Daniel Smith., ☺️🙏 Have you tried Artemis?

[@moma-b]

I would exchange one of the violets to a cerulean blue. With that you gain a beautiful bright blue for painting the sky and with emerald you can mix turquoise. You can also mix the violet. 🙂

[@AllanJayQuesada]

Id love to have a genuine cerulean too, but im afraid that would make the set expensive. for that id probably just mix phthalo blue with white as a close alternative.

[@moma-b]

@@AllanJayQuesada I meant that color switch theoretically, reflecting on what you have said around 14:10, having a turquoise in exchange to the yellow green. Turquoise you can mix but cerulean blue you cannot. If you mix phthalo blue with white you'll get a semi-opaque blue, not a transparent one. I wouldn't think a transparent cerulean blue would make the palette so much more expensive. 😉

[@justacatwhocantype]

I have never heard of these paints before. They look pretty good and the color selection really isn't bad. I mean, yes, 5 greens are excessive and I would also prefer something different, like a turqoise as you mentioned, but it's still a good selection. And then considering that these paints are very affordable - wow. It continues to amaze me how many decent but cheap watercolors there are available nowadays.

[@AllanJayQuesada]

Hiiii. Yes, it's really not bad considering the pricr. Chinese market is really competitive lately. 🎨🙏☺️

[@Oozaru85]

@@AllanJayQuesada Of course they are. As soon as non-chinese companies enter the chinese market and start producing their stuff over there, their recipes get stolen and copied and suddenly tons of cheaper chinese alternatives pop up everywhere. This happened with Winsor & Newton and many other brands, as well as tech brands of course. It's based on corporate theft, basically. Oh well, as long as I get good alternatives for cheaper, I don't really mind.

Hi. All are good paints. But among all that you've mentioned, Sonnet is the only one which provides pigment codes, and they come in full pans. The only disadvantage of Sonnet is that it doesn't have a sturdy container. You'll need to transfer them in a better container in time. But paints are generally more reliable.

One of the reason why i compliment this set is because it has thr cool and the warms of primaries.

¡Hola! gracias. He probado el Daler Rowney Aquafine ... es agradable, pero aún así, Sonnet, VanGogh y Cotman son mejores. Estoy deseando renovarlo formalmente aquí y también las pinturas Daler Rowney Professional.

Dear Allan, I noticed a lot brand set comes with a lot greens. I dont remember the brand I was looking and but the set came with 6 green paints. I believe cheaper set need to eliminate one or two of the green for an additional Yellow and or PB36 or turquoise; what do you think?

[@AllanJayQuesada]

In my observation, many Asian brands include more than enough greens in sets. Also, many cheap brands put many greens that are mixed from multiple Pigments. I think they do that mainly for economical use. Convenience mixes of greens are usually cheaper to produce. Turquoise is a good addition too and yellows. But these colors are a bit harder to produce specially genuine turquoise.

Hello from Canada and happy birthday! Thank you for the review. I am curious about the Lightfast test. Please let us know the results. I can't wait to see the review of the professional set. There should be pigment codes and probably more granulation. I love granulation/sedimentation.

[@AllanJayQuesada]

Hiii. Thank you for the greeting. Unfortunately, i have not done any lightfastness test.. i want to do it all at the same time, so i need a free week to do that. i have reviewed the higher grade set of this, please check it out,.. though sadly it doesn't give the pigment codes.. so, I'm not expecting it to really last until of course we conduct our own tests.

Does you think this Owin watercolor set better than Pretty Excellent one? Or they are the same? (Sorry for my bad english)

Pan sets from the top brands in my comparison portions are the best (aside from those which I haven't reviewed yet, but are also great) . You'll never go wrong with these brands' pan sets/hand poured sets: Daniel Smith, Sennelier, Holbein, Mission Gold, Sennelier, Da Vinci.

Planning to buy a new watercolor set other than prang and na mention nyo po na semi moist sya. Can I ask po kung comparable sya sa prang in terms of their stickyness? Kasi may times po na if na parami ng pigment sa prang is nagiging sticky ung paint and ganun rin po ba yang o.win? Really want a new wc na cheaper and maganda quality but doesn't have that stickyness compare to prang. Thank you po

[@AllanJayQuesada]

late na yung reply ko, pero yes, medyo comparable yung stickiness nila ng Prang.. though parang mas malagkit parin si Prang.. pag ayaw niyo ng ganon paints, better go for drier paints like Superior. :)

Hi. Arches is really on top. Hindi ko pa na try yung iba kong mga binili, so hindi pa complete ang recommendations ko.. sa Shopee ko, meron akong Strathmore visual Journal at Hahnemuhle.. both tried and tested ko na, and nagandahan ako, kaya nagdecide ako ibenta. ayaw ko ibenta pag di ko approved ang quality e,

Good evening po. Sir ask ko lng po if kung hindi ntin pagbabasihan ung price ng "superior 18 colors" and ng "o.win" ano pong mas better sa kanilang dalawa? Thank you in advance po ^_^

[@AllanJayQuesada]

Halos same lang talaga eh. Siguro for me, O.win for the reason na semi moist siya. Mas madali parin by a bit to activate and lesser chance maging chalky.

Hiii. Please watch at 7:51 where I compared some halfpans along with owin. Superior is halfpan lang din dba.. Even smaller than a standard halfpan pa nga so superior eh. So basically, medyo mas maraming laman itong owin Kasi palapad siya. Plus watch that comparison part para Makita mo mabuti ☺️
