I love how she just casually mentions you can get high from one of the paints.
Then I better dont start about paint thinner 😅
LOL, the sound of the tubes knocking the desk ws so realistic and live that I thought it was sound from my house.
Thanks for the review. Gamblin are good but I wouldn't pay a premium for them if you can get old holland, or mussini cheaper. They do try to make pigments less toxic. Its generally pretty stiff and good pigmentation but nothing special.
That was my thought aswell, my impression is that most of the artist grade paint only differ in pigment load and maybe stiffness. But one can paint woth all of them great paintigs.
Thanks for making this video. I found it very helpful. Much appreciated.
Thank you! I am happy you liked it :)
My favourites are: cheap Jackson’s Art and Cass Art own brands, Sennelier Rive Gauche fast drying oils, Rembrandt and Michael Harding. Last ones are top range and quite affordable. At least in UK.
I have never tried the Lucas brand but you have peaked my interest and will give them a try.
The Schmincke Norma is my standard go to paint - they say it’s artist grade, but to be fair it’s somewhere between student and artist grade, also price wise, but if you like to paint big and still want quality I really like it. Gamblin paints are nice too, but too expensive here in Europe, so there are other alternatives.
I use masterclass paints and they have great pigmentation. They don't lose their brightness like other brands. Lukas, Old Holland, Schminke Mussini, Rembrandt and Blocks are the master level paints.
The thing with brigtness is also about how the brand made their recepies, while Lukas 1862 for example have Beewax inside, they will be more mat than paints with resins like Mussini. There are lovers for both finishes. I personally dont care that much, since the varnish will bring all the luminance back in the end ;)
@@tanyamattiss Should I move to daler rowney georgian from masterclass?
They are great and very affordable but Lithuania wants to restrict them😢
@@rhysfinley5772 no you should not
Hi came to the same opinion with Lukas,in US u can get it only at Jerry’s Artrama it’s about 8$,not that expensive for the quality in comparison to Van Gogh which is about 7$
Thank you for sharing this important information with us . A big hug from Japan🇯🇵
I am happy you found it helpfull! A big hug back from germany :)
Hi, Great Video. I stopped using winsor and newton because i didnt like the smell of linseed oil. Which has the least smell in the list above
Where I live Masterclass oil colours cost 2 euros per 46ml tube... Good paint. Old Holland and Blockx are extraordinary.
Well 2€ are unbeatable for that quality
Iugoslavia....?
Where do you even live? That's like half to 1/3 of the price I would pay. And im in a hole.
I would definetely try Lukas. I find that for covience a commercially available tube with reasonal price is accepted. But when the price of a brand or a certain pigment is way high, I decide to buy pigment and make paint myself. I have some cobalt colors at hand now.
I havent tried mulling my own paint yet, but if you have the tools and skills, it will propably be the best price value ratio👌
And yes, cobalt is so freaking expensive, I buy such expensive paints only from ebay for half the price ;)
You speak slowly which is good and we can understand. Thank you
I recommend the Italian brand Maimeri
Is it professional paint ir for beginers?
@@evelinam.5835 There are three categories:
Classico Maimeri colors I think are for beginners, but they are good value for money
Instead Artisti and Puro I think are for professionals
@@vanekbap i really hate paints fir begginers. Tried Talens and no never again they lack of pigment.
@@evelinam.5835 I'm fine with Classico Maimeri's beginner paint, but I've never used the professional ones
Classico Maimeri are the most inconsistent paints I own and I don't want to buy them anymore.
Some colours, like Indian yellow come out of the tube too runny, too diluted with medium.
Other, like cad red come so heavy, its impossible to squeeze out of the tube.
And I have two 200ml whites over the years that come defected straight from the factory, full of some small grains that makes the paint unusable.
Talens Van Gogh have better quality control and overall the same pigment intensity.
good evaluation, I liked it
How do masterclass cadmiums compare to let’s say gamblin? Ive heard other UA-camrs say that masterclass is packed with pigment on par with Vasari/Blocx . What has been your experience ?
I have heard others said Master Class is excellent. However, she said it's not very pigmented. I wonder if it depends on the color?
@@LittleMew133that’s what I was thinking … 😊
Lucas is great...pigment quality and saturation compete well against some premium grade brands
Exactly, high quality and very affordable, that why I love them :)
It is interesting for me to see how people have different experiences with paints. As for me, I don’t like Lukas 1862 at all. I have Lemon Yellow and Phtalo blue. Their Lemon Yellow is so dull, has no shine and it does not spread smoothly. It is sticky. Somewhere on UA-cam I read that Lukas paints are said to be quite matte in general. Rembrandt and Schmincke Norma are my favourite so far. Although I don’t like the strong smell of Rembrandt paints, they are as smooth as butter. Love that. Schmincke Norma paint doesn’t smell really, and is well pigmented. However, the paint has a thicker consistency, which is a downside. I haven’t tried Mussini yet.
There is this mexican brand Atl, they are SO GOOD and ridiculously cheap, but the thing is they do not label the pigments correctly, just a generic name for each color.
sounds good, and who cares if they list their pigments correctly as long as the paint is good quality and the price is good I don't see any problems. 👌
Expensive for Germany 😢 I'm from Mx and Sennelier S1 40 ml tube is around 22 euros and the minimum wage is around 372 euros a month, working 6 days a week for 8 hours that oftenly and extraorficially convert to 9-10 hrs a day.
I'm a portrait artist & unless you're getting $10,000 per painting stick with Rembrandt or Lucas
Well, thats a point of view. But since premium paint usually costs only about a third more than artist grade, I dont think you have to wait until 10.000$ 😂
@@tanyamattiss premium grade is higher than artist grade? Which oil is premium?
Premium would be brands like old holland, schmincke mussini, vasari etc. (williamsburg too I think)
Artist grade, Rembrandt, Lukas 1862, Gamblin, Sennelier etc.
Have you tried winsor and newton artists paint?
good review ! your voice is also artist grade ! :)
Thank you for the compliment 🙈
lol i’m from california and this is the first time i’ve heard a german say ‘hella’!
Haha, well I am learning from the internet 😉
I can get Winton student grade paint at the same per ml price as Master Class artist grade paint, do you think I should just go with the Master Class?
Go with Winton. Master-Class is considered student grade paints even in Russia. Several individual studies lead to believe that Master-Class producer cut the costs even on the cheapest of pigments. They also tend to lie about their cadmiums and cobalts (it appears that they don't use them at all without telling that their oil colors are hue imitations). Most of the Russian artists would gladly use Winton over Master-Class even when the former costs twice more (except those artists that make 3-5 paintings a day and cannot afford to buy gallons of more expensive paint).
Norma is more on the student side. We have norma here advertised as academic grade.
How interesting, here in germany its artist grade paint, Schminckes Student grade here ist called Akademie. And below that there is also Schmincke College.
But if the Norma price is on the level of Student grade in your country, thats an awesome deal ;)
Would you say water mixable oil paints can be good too? Like Cobra study/artist grade from Royal Talens?
Sure! As far as I heard Holbein Aqua Duo is the best in that catergory, but Cobra would be at least second. I heard they sometimes can get a little tacky if you dilute them with water while painting, and if you use the water only to wash them, and some oil as your medium, they should behave like every other traditional oil paint.
@@tanyamattiss Thank you very much! ^_^
great video !
Thank you! 😊
Danke für das Video, war sehr informativ 😊 Riecht Mussini nach Lösungsmitteln? Ich verwende sehr viel Lasur in meiner Malerei, bin aber was solche Gerüche angeht leider sehr empfindlich :/ (Male auch nur mit Öl als Malmittel)
Hey, meiner Meinung nach riechen Mussinis eher nach Harz. Ich liebe den Geruch, und ich bin auch sehr empfindlich was Lösungsmittel angeht. Aber ich habe von ihnen noch nie Kopfschmerzen oder ähnliches bekommen. Vllt könntest du ja mal in einem Laden an einer Tube schnuppern und schauen wie du reagierst. 🤔
@@tanyamattiss Danke für die Info ☺️ Und stimmt, vielleicht mache ich das mal!
😎😎😎,,,thank u for ur good job review,
Great video,thanks! Just bought a schmincke 10×35ml set
I hope you will have fun with it :))
@@tanyamattiss it is a gift for a friend but I will pass the good word ^__^
Ah ok. Then I hope your friend will like it. But Schmincke takes great pride in their paints, so the quality is usually very high 😉
@@tanyamattiss mussini? Is it premium?
@@anony5021 Yes Mussini is a premium grade brand :)
Cobalt pigment is about 70 dollars per kilogram for general paint use(greens and turqoise are cheaper and surprisingly violets 14 not more than blues. Except that cobalt violet in other composition is double or triple higher in price. Coarse pigment for average ceramic caoting is generally much cheaper.). The art supplier would time that price twice or even triple and more selling small quanlities. You might want to skip that and find the resource from pigment manufactures directly.
Yeah you are right, but personally I use these expensive pigments so seldom, the small tubes I own like cobalt and cadmium will propably last at least 10 more years ;)
And for mulling your own paint you need all these other equipment and expertise how to use what pigment, what pigment is how toxic, and so on.
Its a whole new faculty, than just painting ;))
Its nice that your Mussinis cadmium red costs 8,50.. in finland same tube costs 55€ 😂 and i think thats like series 5 or so, they probably go to series 8? Thats around 75€ per tube...
Noo, the prices I showed where all for the titanium white, cadmium red in this quality for 8€ would be a dream. This tube cadmium middle costs over here about 42€, and I got it for 20€ from ebay :)
@@tanyamattiss thats good to hear 😅. I though we are getting ripped hard 😁. Now we are getting ripped just little bit, be cause titanium white is 14€, so its only like 80% more expensive 😬
Holly, yeah I dont think I would by a titanium white for 14€ 🙁
Thats why its best to buy more regional, if possible. Do you have oil paint Factorys in Finnland?
@@tanyamattiss ye we actually do have atleast one i do know of. Ive never tried them but ive been thinking to check them out. Cant remember the manufacturers name or pricing.. so there we go 😅. Its weird that those mussinis are so expensive and for example Van Gogh colors are all 5,60 or something like that. Rembrants most expensive colors cadmiums are 20€
Hm, Rembrandt cadmium over here is about 18,50€
I guess your taxes are higher than ours 🤔
Hi Tatjana. I want to buy some tubes and i am between "masterclass" and "norma". Because i havent test this colours wich brand between those two do you thing has more pigment concentration? Do you thing norma is better than masterclass?
It really depends, I think the pigment amount is pretty the same, but Norma is all eco and Masterclass on the other hand, is way cheaper (over here atleast).
I personally would go for the Norma if you want to avoid solvents and maybe have to paint in your sleeping room.
If you use turpentine or other paintthinner anyway and dont sleep in the room you are painting in, masterclass would be fine.
@@tanyamattiss thanks a lot
@@geostk3659 ...go for Lukas!
how about lukas studio?
Unfortunately I have not tried them yet, but I know other painter who are very happy with the Lukas studio paint :)
Thank you for this video. Is the Daley Rowney Georgian Oil paint also a good one?
I have not used them myself yet, but I know people who are very happy with with this paint.
They should be on the same quality level as the Van Gogh paints
I'm currently gathering information about different kinds of oil paints with a good quality and your video gave me ideas. Thanks again.
I myself liked the fact that Daler Rowney was an oil paint I could get by simply going to Walmart, it worked out for, I bought some Windsor & Newton at Michaels that was a little hard, I try to use a variety of supplies, all paints have virtues, the best paint? make the best out of any paint used
I think they are okay and affordable not my favourite, I prefer Windsor and Newton winton oils..
But that’s simply preference, they are similarly priced too, my favourite is sennelier or gamblin but they are more pricey. Id recommended trying a few different ones and see what you like most and how they move on canvas, hope this helps :)
Yep, its all about personal preference
Great video :)
Thank you! ♡
Вы говорите с очень сильным, прямо каноничным русским акцентом)
хаха да, мой акцент наверное смесь немецкого и русского :))
your choice?
My Choice? Whatever is in discount, I actually use all of them ;)
If money is not an issue, then probably old holland or mussini.
If money is an issue, then the Lukas 1862.
But it also depends if your prefer your paint more on the softer or on the stiffer side
missing gambling...nice video...lots of good paints here...some harder to find though.
I would love to try Gamblin someday, but at the moment it costs more than Old Holland here in Germany. And thats way to expensive for my pocket, until the day they get on sale ;)
Gracias por el vídeo. ¿Alguien podría añadirlos subtitulos en español? Estaría muy shido
I am sorry but I dont speak spanish
"Nice" language.....😊
Para q interpretes gratis atu abuela
Ya está incorporado en español.
williamsburg oil paint is the best oil paint.
Havent tried that one yet, still waiting for the Sale ;)
Yes. Egyptian violet. You will have to rob a bank to afford it but its soooo worth it 😍
Thank you
Thank you for watching! 😉
Tell me your german without telling me your german lol great vid tho
🥨🍺😆
Ty
Yw :p
Can't understand...turn up the volume.
Sorry I dont have control over your phone 🤷♀️
Do you have all colors or you compare different colors. If you compare different pigments thats not too much of sense.
No I don't have every color from every brand. Would be quite expensive
@@tanyamattiss so do you think old Holland is all pigment and no filler?
And is it time consuming to mill pigments? Where are the highest quality pigments available?
Hey, I don't have insights into production, but from my experience Old Holland is one of the brands with a huge load of pigments in the tube. Its possible that they put a tiny bit of stabiliser in their paint, but I think it would be a more valid info if you ask their support.
It is very time consuming to mile pigments, while earth colors for example often take less time, others can take up to the whole day to combine withe the oil, and some pigments are toxic and should not be breathed in by any circumstances.
If you want pure pigment and oil paints, I think Rublev offer such paints 🤔
Очень интересно, но жаль что не понимаю этот язык. Видимо там где прищепочки хорошие, остальные валяются в шкафу
Это Не совсем так. Краски все высокого качества. На доске висят те краски которые я регулярное использую ,
так как для всех не хватает места. Остальные лежат в коробке на столе. Качество эти этих красок соответствует цене и действительности.😉
@@tanyamattiss спасибо👍
Those expensive tubes won't make you a better painter .
In the past the masters used poor quality compared to today .
Today we're dealing with a huge marketing machine .
They charge huge prices for some oils with pigments in them which is absurd .
I agree that expensive paints wont make you a better artist, but the Benefit of these paints is that they contain more pigment and lesser filler. That will make them last longer than cheaper paints.
And I don't think that the old master used poor quality paint. They were limited with the range of pigments, but their paints were all well milled and mixed with the highest quality oil, which probably could not be found anywhere these days.
That's what good painting brands try to achieve, and yes of course there is marketing and the people want to earn their money, but thats still cheaper than milling the pigments yourself ;)
@@tanyamattiss thing is that I hate that the tubes are so small . They want to charge as more as possible for as less as possible . I think with a small lab and some knowledge someone can cook and prepare those pigments with a 2% or less of the real cost . On Ebay 8 kg of pure cadmium cost 170$ 🤣They buy the cadmium with even less . Basically the real cost of the materials would be maximum 2% of what you pay . Of course you add the work to grind and mix the pigments and pack those in the tubes but that don't justify the rest of 98% of the price . The price is 10x pumped
In that case you could buy some pigments and a glass muller etc. and make your own paint. But make sure to not use any toxic pigments
People who make their own paint, claim that this is the best quality you can get, and if you are into this, why not trying
@@radurobert1 excellent insight 🔥
Маster klass is namber one( natural) .
Master Class has a lot of fans :)
Еще Rembrand,Le Frank,Old Holland ,очень хорошие краски.
Это верно
Lukas ist aus meiner Sicht nicht Artist grade. Kann ja jeder drauf schreiben was er will. Lukas ist voller Füllstoffe. Kein Vergleich zu Blockx oder OH. Du solltest mal die Kadmiumfarben vergleichen. Die Lukas kacken da voll ab. Hier im Atelier liegen noch ca. 50 200ml Tuben von Lukas rum die einfach nicht alle werden wollen.
Da muss ich widersprechen, Lukas 1862 ist vielleicht keine Premium Grade, aber Künstlerqualität sind sie ganz sicher. Ich habe deren Kadmiumgelb, und es ist natürlich nicht so pigmentiert wie das von Old Holland, kann aber mit Norma oder LEFRANC & BOURGEOIS extrafein mithalten. Und ein Vergleich mit Blockx oder OH macht alleine schon vom preispunkt keinen Sinn. Die einen sind Kpnstlerfarben, die anderen Premiumfarben. Und die letzteren können meiner Meinung nach, ihre volle Wirkung auch nur entfalten wenn man in dünnen Schichten oder Lasuren malt.
@@tanyamattiss lukas ist irgendwie aufgebauscht. Wie als ob da so Schaumkram eingearbeitet wurde. Durch die Zusätze trocknen sie extrem schnell was ich gar nicht mag. Das kann nicht gesund für die Durchtrocknung sein. Hast du schon mal Michael Harding probiert?
Vllt ist es das Wachs das sich für dich fremdartig anfühlt, muss man mögen. Mich persönlich stört es nicht, und auch nicht dass wahrscheinlich ein ganz kleiner Teil sikkativ enthalten ist, so muss ich weniger beimischen ;P
Von Michael Harding habe bisher nur eine Tube hier liegen. Von der Konsistenz aber sehr ähnlich zu den Lukas, vielleicht etwas cremiger und pigmentierter.
Very heavy German accent
Ok
Her English is perfectly understandable. And she made this video as a service to you.
Do not talk about caps, clean them!
Well I prefer to paint and not to clean caps, which will end up dirty again anyway after a short time 🤷♀️
@@tanyamattiss yes thats true, but i found out if i do not cleam them there will come a moment that i will not be able to close it. And i always regret.
