This is enlightening. Who knew a color chart could be so much fun? It also reinforces for me how little I've done with color, partly because I never caught on to the names not necessarily matching the colors. Fascinating. Can't wait to see what you do with them! I need to do a chart like this before using color again. Awesome video! And a nice Monday morning treat.🥰🥰🥰
Thank you Linda! I'm ok with abstract naming of colors like "sunset" for a nice bright orange, but don't call it orange and have it be brown or call it blue and it's green. That bugs me. Glad you enjoyed this. Have a great day! 🙂
I love the bright shades of blue, though I like all blues. I love the colour teal when it hands more blue in it than not. Thank you for sharing your technique of exploring the paints with paper--- granulation and dried shades.
I feel the same way about teal, it needs to be a blue shade for me to enjoy it. Thank you Carmen! 🙂
These colours were my first encounter with Schmincke as well! I completely agree with you! I love Daniel Smith much more. Great videos!
Thank you! There are a few I would use. The galaxy pink is a great undertone color or a more saturated potters pink. But most I will pass on. I was the most excited about the volcano colors but I'm glad I didn't waste my money on the set. And I agree, Daniel Smith is much better for granulating colors.
Wow! I have always been curious about these and felt I was missing out. Well, not anymore! You saved me a ton of money as I’m no longer interested in them at all. Great video!!
Glad I could help save you some time and money. I'm glad I tried the dot card also. I would have been a little angry if I bought the set I originally wanted.
Winsor Newton Professional watercolor Lemon Yellow Deep (PY159) is modestly granulating, extremely lightfast, and separates from some of the colors I've tried mixing it with. I've recently been playing with it and rather like it. It is not strong tinting, but it most definitely a lemon, and builds quite well to a strong punch of a yellow. It also rewets from dry quite easily. It's quite lovely with Rose Madder Genuine (also modestly granulating, but not lightfast if that matters to your work). It's the same pigment number as the Volcano Yellow, but doesn't have the issues you see to have with the Schmincke.
The Volcano Red is just cadmium red, so really surprised that it has so many issues. WN's cadmiums granulate and have good flow, maybe not "super" granulation, but they do granulate. Rewetting from dried is easy with WN paints.
Thank you for the advice. I'll have to look into it and give it a try. 👍🏻
So much better from tube into pans. I LOVE their random grey 2022. I was able to buy a second tube on Amazon last month. I’m hoping for a random grey 2023… but who knows…🤪
Thanks Pam. I may need to try that. I imagine the small dot does not do them justice.
Thanks! That was very interesting. Thank you for what you share with us. Awesome.
Thank you Denise! I'm glad you got something out of it. You support me so much and I'm so grateful for you. It's a good thing I have supporters like you because the way I tear into products no company will ever pay me for a review video. 😂
The volcano set could be brighter certainly. I paint a lot of Kilauea volcano and that lava is VIBRANT. I use the DS Permanent and Perinone oranges for my lava and lunar black for the cinder cone or dried cool lava. But I could see myself using that volcano red and violet in spots on top of or mixed in with the vibrant oranges to show the texture and darkened color of lava that is slightly cooled. But I can do that with things out of the Primatek line that I already have. Part of me still kinda wants that volcano line but I just can't justify the money for something I have to mix with other things anyway to get what I want out of it.
I agree! Why buy something that doesn't do the job when you can easily have something to do the job and might cost a little less? Daniel Smith is my go to. I think it may stay that way.
@@IllustrationsByPete Same. Daniel Smith has never let me down.
I switched my on the same paper.
And they looked very foggy.
But on hahnemühle 100% cotton they looked brighter.
And in the pans they are better to rewet them.
I buy tubes and pans and they rewet very easily and they are very stronger.
And definitely more water.
I don't know why but they love it,and separates better.
I appreciate the info. I'll give it another try on the hahnemuhle 100% cotton watercolor paper in the next video. Thanks!
@@IllustrationsByPete
I just have the hahnemühle paper at home, don't buy new paper.
I've had the 100% cotton watercolor book for a while now and it works great with my Daniel Smith and Holbein watercolors so it should be easy for me to compare these.
@@IllustrationsByPete ohhh okay 😅
Water,water,water is key for these paints.
I think you're right, I'll have to try them again. I think they didn't come off the dots as well either. Especially that volcano set. I've seen other artists get much better results but they were using fresh from the tube or had pans of them.
Something is very wrong. I have mine swatched on Hahnemuhle burgund rough paper and the colors are very different. The volcano yellow and red are extremely bright in my set and I think you are missing out on the color separation of many of those colors. Do you have any Escoda brushes you could try? That might be an issue, I don't know. I will say you'll get more color separation with more water. But again, something isn't right. Keep playing with them.
That is strange. I use my Daniel Smith and Holbein with a water brush on this paper and it looks beautiful. I will experiment with my Princeton aqua elite and davincis brushes to see if there is a difference. I might bite the bullet and buy a tube and dry it myself in a pan and retest. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Escuche que el papel de celulosa es mejor para resaltar el efecto de separacion y granulación. El papel de algodon absorbe demasiado y no da tiempo al efecto
That is very interesting. I will try cellulose paper and see if that helps with these. I haven't had trouble with my Daniel Smith granulating paints on cotton paper but that doesn't mean these aren't different. Thank you for the suggestion! 🙂
Good review of granulating colors, and mostly I agree with your conclusions. I don’t believe I could make a good palatte unless I mixed some of the Volcano colors with my W-N non-granulating counterparts. (Deep Deep Light has a pretty orange called Day Lily Orange that you might like, but I don’t know how much it granulates)
Thanks Anna. I'll look into it. It's a shame that you'd need to mix anything into a $25 tube of paint. I don't think it's worth the cost. 🙂
If I can get red, yellow and blue, then yea, I can make a pallet out of that.
I agree. 👍🏻
I love the granulated too, Pete. Most often I use both…🤷🏼♀️
Hi Denise! I usually use a mixed pallet also but I thought it would be interesting to have a pallet filled with only granulating pigments. I don't think it will be with these though. They seem so weak.
They did show weak online, but wasn’t sure if it because of being on the video or what.
They darkened as they dried but I couldn't tell as I applied them. They looked weak. However, in the next video you will see a painting and I couldn't get them to look vibrant at all, even with multiple layers.
@@IllustrationsByPete I personally don’t think I would like those colors. But to be honest, I am using some colors that are over 70 years old and most of them are rich and amazing. Some of them are brands that I’ve never heard of, but that doesn’t mean anything. LOL. Some are lovely granulating colors and others aren’t. I guess I’m not well versed enough to know all of color theory and such, I just kinda try all sorts of stuff, from expensive to dirt cheap. LOL. Some good, some awful. For sure a learning experience. That is why I love your videos…it teaches me something every single time. So much thanks to you, Pete.

I wonder if they miss-labeled some of these?
Cus some of them seems to not match with what I think they suppose to be (to my eyes).
You are correct. Although I think they are correct. I think it is based on the set name more than the actual color so some blues look green and some greens look blue. A lot of people have made comments of this on other videos. I think it's just one of those cases where marketing has gone wrong. Lol.
"Oh, you donkey" 😂😂
😂 Sometimes I have to get creative when I self sensor.
thanks for sharing these, i might even get some of them some day. call me odd but i dream of having a small pallet of blacks, "shades of black" maybe an odd thing but it's hard to mix a shade of black for me.
That's a great idea. Whatever inspires you is worth doing.
Great intro
Thank you! 🙂
YIKES!!! These colors really blow! SMINKY is either running an elaborate scam here or they're smoking more dope at their headquarters than I do... Those shire colors... WHAT THE HELL?!?!?!? Thank you for blowing the lid offa these bums!!! 😝😝😝😂
I agree. In the next video I'll do a painting and it was all I could do to get them to show up on the page. Very light and almost pastel like. They definitely have granulation but nothing special and Daniel Smith is much better in this avenue.
Looking forward to seeing the results (and the saran wrap/salt application😜😜😜)@@IllustrationsByPete
I will make one of those videos soon. I have plans. 🧐
Actually, the Americans spell proper while the English do not. English isn't original to England, regardless to popular belief. English congress from a mixture of French and Latin. While Americans hold true to the original Latin/ French spelling as England once did, the English changed their spelling after a certain war, which will remain unnamed. LoL
I didn't know that. Thanks for the info!
No... That is definitely incorrect. Look up Noah Webster.
