Star-Joy Gold Pencil Setup

[@RealMelodyBlue]

Ooo look! I found the browns!!!! LoL 😂😆 This is great, I'm glad you're doing this, because their are people out there saying the set up isn't good, and finding the browns was confusing. Any one can find the browns and this system is the best and easiest for beginners.

[@FernCurtis]

😆

[@polarbearhero9803]

You know where I found all the browns I use for landscapes with my wax pencils? In the skin set! 🙀

[@RealMelodyBlue]

@@polarbearhero9803 well there was a certain KZbinr who put out a nasty video taking about the browns in the Star Joy Gold set and how it was set up, even went as far as calling Lori a hook or gimmick for the pencils, it made me mad 😡 and I answered her video and called her out on it! So now it's kind of a joke anout the browns.

[@kerrymillar5408]

not a beginner but its always good to refresh yourself with the basics, sometimes its so easy to forget the simple things.

[@inkybl0tz]

My sJ Golds are arriving today. I am ready! Thank you, Miss Lori!!! Your teachings have done things I'd thought I never would accomplish. You've done a lot for me and my life through this little screen I hold in my hand. Thank you, thank you SO much!!!!!

[@brendasnider7130]

Got your 1st 👍 like 👍 your first comment 👍 and it's on the 1st day of this brand New Year 👍 ❤😉

[@shirleyblair7889]

Not a beginner but still watching there's always room to learn and improve .Thanks Lori

[@cindythoren6318]

This is amazingly!! Thank you so much for deciding to teach coloring basics with these pencils! I struggle with using oil based pencils because I'm not that comfortable using them, now I'm all excited about starting from step 1 and learn all I can!! You are an amazing lady and I truly appreciate all you do!!

[@beauteoussounds1156]

I draw and color all the time, but I NEED this channel like a music student needs music theory classes! Thank you, Lori!

[@ladyrg5040]

I just bought a Star Joy Gold set from Amazon. I am waiting very patiently for them to be delivered. Hopefully tomorrow... Can't wait to start drawing with them. I am new to colored pencils but not new to "making art." I have painted in oils for many years but decided to learn watercolor and colored pencil painting and drawing. I am gravitating towards the pencils over the watercolors. Thank you Lori for your expertise and love of art!! Wishing you and your family a speedy and total recovery.. hugs from Chicago!!

[@terriw6116]

I’ve spent hours finding the most beginner friendly coloured pencils and what you all have created here is INCREDIBLE. I’m so excited

[@ColorfullyOptimistic]

I love that you've made a channel just for these! This is going to be so helpful.

[@davidlarsen3319]

Miss Lori I have had my pencils for a month now I put them in my case in the order that you have them, it makes it so easy to get the colors that I need. It makes it so easy to get the colors I need for my drawings or my coloring books. I would never put them in any other order. I am so happy that you have started this new channel. I draw and color halfway decent but since the car accident that I was in my memory it's not what it used to be. Your instructions AR helping me to remember what I had lost and I appreciate that so much. Thank you again for your experience and insight.👍😃

[@StarJoyGoldPencils]

I was working on a picture last night and was trying to avoid using Star-Joy Gold because I don't want to just use those pencils. I couldn't do it. All the colors I needed were in the Star-joy Gold set and no matter where I looked I couldn't get it right. I ended up using them anyways. With the case it takes literally 5 minutes to clean up.

[@davidlarsen3319]

LOL, Lori you made the absolutely perfect pencil set. And I understand what you mean because I have a hard time using my other two sets now. A matter fact I need to get me another set I'm wearing my pencils down Karma LOL

[@BarbBColorReader]

Lori, after you have explained all this, (and even before when you summarized the sections on CMW), I would NEVER move the order of these pencils in the case. I love them as is. Great instruction here. Happy New Year

[@hubbysswee]

This is Ridiculously (used in a POSITIVE manner of course) amazing, wonderfully designed, well thought out pencil set! You’re so generous in giving all of us, who for whatever reason aren’t able to attend art school, a chance to develop our skill set. Thank you!

[@carolbatchelor5855]

I always look forward to your next video showing up in my notifications, Lori! I know I'll learn something new every time. You are the best! You have a lot of skills, and I wonder if some of these other people might be jealous. They don't seem to even stop and think about the reasons for these pencils being organized in the specific way that they are. Whining and complaining isn't necessary. I knew these pencils were different before I ordered them. That's why I ordered them. Thank you, Lori, for taking the time to teach us about using color. I look forward to seeing your next video. I hope you are feeling better soon. Take care and big hugs, Lori!

[@Finilikescoloring12]

I am watching this video again, thanks for putting this pencils on that specific order, it is very helpful and it makes a lot of sense

[@dreamweaver9811]

my first set is on its way, I am so excited. Thank you for all that you do for us colorists. I wish all the happy for you and your family as you rebuild after your loss.

[@marvelenia6702]

Very nice explanatory video! Would be great if I could buy these somewhere....Here in Europe, no chance, but if I could get them on Amazon US they could be shipped here.

[@Lisecouleur]

You are an incredible teacher! I don’t learn much on other channels, but I’m guaranteed to learn something every time I see your videos pop up! I’ve learned where the browns are!🙊🙉🙈😮🤭🤫😘💖🇨🇦

[@davidfleming7887]

Although I’m not a beginner colorist I find this new channel is invaluable in addition to Color My World. I’m always either learning something new or remembering what I have forgotten. You are my first choice in coloring channels. Hope you and your family will have a healthier year then it’s been so far. Thanks so much.

[@Iscribble46]

Lori, thank you so much for all you're doing. I'm so excited about this channel. I learned so much on the Color My World channel regarding wax pencils and I'm much more confident with them. Now, I'll get to learn about oil pencils from the same magnificent teacher. You're a jewel! I hope your family is healing and I wish you all a happy new year!!

[@ilovecoloringhazel4597]

What an awesome start to working with my new Star Joy Gold Pencils. This is so exciting to me! Many thanks for starting at the beginning, for these oil pencils.

[@vanessa6283]

Thank you so much for this channel Lori. I ordered the Star Joy Gold pencils back in November, but I am only now just getting around to using them. So far they are a lovely pencil and very well thought out. I am very impressed with the quality (I am a polychromos girl). I do have a question, I received 2 #70 and no #56. Is there a way to get this individual pencil". Thank you for all you do and I hope you will post many more beginner videos and that you are adjusting to all the changes in your life.

[@jeanneconnolly8769]

Thank you for this video . Very interesting . Thank you Lori

[@mariatriesart8389]

Thank you, am looking forward to learning undertones and how to use these pencils!

[@DDumaurier2]

Absolutely amazing how much thought and effort went into creating this set of pencils. Great video! Lori, you are such a wonderful teacher. Thanks for all you and Star-Joy Gold are doing. Look forward to the next video. Hope you and family are all feeling better. Happy New Year!!

[@apey252]

I just ordered these! I love that you developed colored pencils with all of us in mind.

[@lorrykohls]

Thanks for creating this channel! I didn't realize the pencil color will not turn into a darker color or change. Thanks!!

[@StarJoyGoldPencils]

If you don't know the color really well, burnish a tiny swatch on a piece of scratch paper and look over at it. I sometimes don't realize either and will go too hard.

[@oliviarinaldi5963]

I, too, would never change the order. The order makes common sense to me and I work better with that. I have a case and I'm going to write the color number behind each pencil as well. I am so excited about these lessons. Thank you for your hard work even when you're sick.

[@cmorton1002]

Totally a beginner here, I'm a doodler. Really, I'm a reader, but finding myself with a lot of time, I want to branch out.🙂 I love that you explain the color set up, and I love that this collection has skin tones! I can order in less than a week and am so excited! And I have my Derwent white in my maybe pile already... Keep up the good work!

[@Yreve2]

I’m so excited for this course! Looking forward to following along

[@SGC2021]

I’m excited to receive these pencils in Australia in a couple of weeks. I loved this video. Thank you ✨🇦🇺

[@Shelleyweaver84]

I've finally been able to buy a set of these pencils. I love how amazing you have set the pencils and how easy they are to use with all the hard work done for me. They are also lovely and buttery. Thank you for all your hard work. The only picky thing I would say is for me I would not have put black in and had another colour but that's me being very picky.

[@libbysmith3209]

Thanks, Lori. Excellent explanation!

[@dianahiatt80]

This is a marvelous channel for all of us who are colorblind and love art! Thank you so much for breaking down the color tones of each pencil, it makes it so much easier to use them. Looking forward to the lessons!

[@la4dreams]

First, I hope you and your family are feeling better. 1st video gets A+ I enjoy what you're doing here and how you share your knowledge with us. Here is a laugh for you, I am a self taught artist. There are times that I don't know why I choose the colors I chose I just know it works 😂. It will be great to understand why it does or doesn't work. I know my art will improve greatly from watching this channel. I for one appreciate what your doing and refuse to let those, who out of jealously, speak negatively of others because they did not get the opportunity to help produce a set of pencils. Straight from the heart, WE LOVE YOU, LORI! ❤💜🧡💛💙

[@RealMelodyBlue]

Exactly right, I love Lori and I got upset when someone went off on Lori and these pencils. Now people will see what the truth is

[@laurahurst1960]

I’m so excited to be learning from you!

[@Pixie_Barrow2024]

Okay Lori. After much hemming and hawing and listening to the Castle fanatics (especially Harry, who's one of my most trusted advisors but I feel like he just loves Castle too much sometimes) as well as you, and knowing your love for good pencils for colorists of all levels at affordable prices, I finally got a set and I'm already happy I did. Because they don't smell like Brutfuner squares 🤣. I love my Brutfuner squares but every time I get a new set I have to leave it outside for 2 hours with the trays separated and that's often the case with pencils made in that country. I think it's the paint. Anyway, I'm starting page 27 in Botanicum, I'll let you know how it goes. I plan on watching your tutorials because, while I have an extensive classical education in art from great institutions, I feel like I have much to learn about coloring sometimes. I also feel like there's no better source to learn about the specifics of a colored pencil than from the developer. What other set does this? Thank you ❤️. Hope all is well with you and yours.

[@panda2lacey]

Thank you, for your patience. You are an awesome instructor. ❤️

[@PursuingHeaven]

Awesome Lori. I look forward to the lessons ahead. I could tell by reading comments of other YT and FB that many have not watched your other videos explaining your process. I am SO glad you did a standard jewel set. Right now all I have to do to get a tritone (which is why most are complaining) is grab the jewel color, a lighter shade and a darker shade in the anagolous or muted tone and I am good to go because all I have to do from there is add gray or white. I am still experimenting with the grays because I know from your other videos that warm doesn't always go with warm colors but I am figuring it all out. Also, I wanted to tell you that your skin tone set is great and helping understand my more professional sets better. I mixed all my Luminance portraits in with my others Luminance and I have since removed them and put them in their own case. Makes so much more sense now.

[@StarJoyGoldPencils]

Yes! That's the key to this system. You grab the middle, put it up against the color wheel. It will tell you exactly which direction to go. Grab your pencils from the Analogous pencils which are clearly marked and you are good to go. If you need a light version just look to your Pastels and Muted colors. It's that easy. The one pin head KZbin artist wanabe that stuck her nose up in the air and declaired her way is the best way is a NUT case asshole who gives really bad advice and makes shit up as she goes along. "There are no brown pencils". YIKES.

[@FernCurtis]

@@StarJoyGoldPencils - Lori, The other comment she made besides that one about the browns, that really got me was, “I am a seasoned colorist, I don’t need help!” Seasoned colorist? Makes me wonder how long she has been coloring because to me a “seasoned colorist “ is going to be able to color a whole lot better than what she showed! That video should never have been made, really!

[@StarJoyGoldPencils]

@@FernCurtis LOL I cringe at her artwork and some of the things she says. She also made a comment that it should have been her working with Andy. You don't want to know what they said about that LOL. She isn't a seasoned anything. I would guess by what she produces she is nothing more than a beginner with a pencil collection. Fuck her.. and that's actually a quote from me. I have never been mean to anyone or attacked anyone in the coloring community. That jealous bitch is lucky I am a lady because I already have written permission from Andy to defend myself and our product. In Julie's words "Can't KZbinrs Curse? "

[@MariaSimiakaki]

@@StarJoyGoldPencils after reading these comments I was curious to find that video. It wasn't difficult. I just wrote Star joy gold and brown and there it was. I have seen many negative reviews for products and never felt bad. They were just negative reviews. This one though felt more like a personal attack towards you and not a review for the pencils. Lets say fast something good for the pencils so that we have a lot of time to badmouth Lori kind of style... I am sorry I searched for this video and gave her one more view, and at the same time made my depression worse. Never mind her. Keep up the good work! Each time I see one of your videos I learn something new and I leave with a big smile on my face!

You made this video before you got sick. I hope you are doing okay. Thank you for the video. Can't wait for future lessons. I contacted you a while back about polychromos family color order. I am still working on it. I am mechanically inclined and can fix and repair things but I've discovered I have a hard time with color. I want it to be all scientific. But it is so subjective depending on your eyes. Still working on it though. Love you. Take care.

I'm having a hard time with my pencil set. The 3pencil color groups are arranged dark to light, so I keep having to check if I've got the darkest of the set or if the next pencil is going to be the next color group. I've heard that there was a modification of the pencil order after the first 100 sets were produced. Is this accurate? If I order another set will the 3 pencil groupings possibly be arranged from the lightest to darkest?

You can try but they are different sets with different colors. Some of the colors might be the same (I don’t know) but certainly not all. Also these pencils are oil while Prismacolor are wax. They need to be used differently.
