Comparing 80 YEAR OLD Prismacolor VS 2019 Prismacolor Pencils: Have They Gotten Better Or Worse?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лис 2019
- I'm so lucky to have found the FIRST edition prismacolor color pencils! I'm going to compare them to modern Prirsmacolor pencils, Faber Castell Polychromos and even a little bit of Crayola Color pencils. We're gonna find out if the quality has been on the incline vs the decline.

Alternative theory: they have always been softcores but the cores have dried/hardened over time
Note: I have a set of eagle prismacolors and they are just as soft as my new ones, but they were in an old protective tin when I bought them. Maybe air exposer over time changes or impacts the cores
That is what I thought. It makes sense
oh I didn’t even think of that
This theory makes the most sense, tbh. Rather than some secret conspiracy of a formula change.
I agree with you. I have a set from eagle prismacolors as well and they're just as soft.
I agree!! I have a set of BEROL's from 1970 (sigh...my first set)...and they were buttery soft and the ones I still have still are. I just can't handle the never ending breakage of the new ones. It's frustrating as heck and why I switched to Polychromos.
My grandma's a retired artist who owns a set of Prismas from the 50s. The only time I've ever heard her swear was at the new Prismas.
😳🤡😂😂😂
So she doesnt like the prismas?
@@StarLight0197 not the new ones 😅
@@StarLight0197 she doesn't hate the new ones, but they're not as good as they used to be
Does she like the Verithin?
I'm watching this during quarantine, and when you said, "two thousand nineteen!" I took a deep breath and thought about the good old days. It has been an age...
Ikr
Ikr...all the good days feel like it was in 2019..
2020 has made me miss 2016
2019 wasnt really a good year for me so, 2018 and before were the good old days :(
2019 good year Australians: ha ha sure P.S I'm Aussie
Growing up in the 80s my grandmother used to buy my sister and I the mega boxes of prisma color pencils, they were sooooo fancy, the box folded into a stand, made me feel like a real artist. Thanks Babcia❤
*when you didn’t know prismacolor was around for 80 years*
ME
Lol me
89*
lmao fr
*Koh I Noor was around for 230 years*
I love that you included some historical facts and not just go "here's a drawing and here's the other drawing, bye"
Yeah I agree
Honestly though
Those pencils were made in the 1970s. 40s Eagles had a very ornate Eagle logo with olive branches.
The shade of white for the 90's is so incredible, it's invisible
Fr
ikr
Eagle looks the most pigmented. Is that just me?
Noah Crozier yh especially that those has been around for 80 yrs, just imagine how they looked like as new
It does
They are more for sure. I work in mostly vintage pencils and they seem to me to be the best of both worlds. Best of Polychromos and of Prismacolor. I thought it could be age but I like the older than Midpoint. There is a version before Eagle and that is when it was Eagle “Turquoise” Prismacolor colored pencils. Eventually it dropped out and Turquoise was meant for the graphite alone. Canada had factories as well and their versions kept up the quality much longer than US.
When you say 90s I keep hearing nighties, like the sleepwear, anyone else?
Honestly same

I think there may have been a slight editing issue lol
Also, when you show the 90s pencils in the box, it looks like there are 2 whites, but when you go to swatch the gradients, white is missing from the 90s column. Did something happen??
I love it when you use really old art supplies 😍😍😍
I legit only saw the thumbnail without reading the title and was like “yeah it’s Rae”
This comment is so me
Ittterly just turned on notifications and then instantly in less than a second got a notification for this
I can tell you took those suggestions to heart! I can see them shining through in this video. Very good balance of informativeness, chillness, Rae energy, and Quality Art.
nobody else offers important content like this, this kid of video is so appreciated in the art community
The Prisma colors being off center is a *CORE* issue

The old ones would have synthetic pigments too, those have been a thing since the early/mid 19th century
The first synthetic purple was made in the 1800s so they’ve definitely Been around
This was so interesting. I love how you included the history behind the making of the prisma colors. :D
It makes complete sense that a softer formula would lead to more breakage.
They break too much now imo which just wastes my pencils and it's too expensive to replace them like every 5 mins... I wish that they were harder.
I get your point. The breakage has lead to many a fit in my own household. I do think they are trying to walk a fine line between being soft and to hard to layer the way we want them to. I find if I sharpen mine with a knife instead of a pencil sharpener they go farther with less breakage.
Not really. Caran d’ache pencils are just as soft as prismacolors and they don’t have their problems.
@@TheMamaPowell I can attest to this. I sharpen mine with an x-acto knife and I haven't been having this constant breaking problem that others seem to have. Also, maybe others are just a little too heavy handed when coloring...
@@Reeniepie I do not agree that caran d'ache are the same. I have 3 different kinds of Caran d'Ache, Polychromos, prismas and a few others. They are all good for different papers and effects I want. I have been using Prismas for a long time and I believe people who say they break more easily. I don't think they are lying but I just don't have that problem 🤷♀️ I use all my brands of colored pencils and love them all. I have yet to find a pencil that is an exact dupe for prismas. I just enjoy them so much I could never get rid of them. Everyone is different though :)
Rae is amazing at art, She is also funny she is just good person
RIP my art
Just keep practicing or u won't go anywhere -_- (sorry, also she is good person)

The cardboard prismacolor packages fold out into a little stand for easier access. I only know because my grandma has an old set we grew up using.

Loving the history background on the experiment! ♥♥♥
Love this video....as a 62 year old artist, I got my first set of Prismacolors around 1970...and it really breaks my heart to see how the quality of this loved art supply has plummeted. In fact, I actually still have a few of my original Prismas in my collection (I can tell because 1) they say BEROL Prismacolor 2) the color FLESH instead of the now pc LIGHT PEACH and 3) they are stubs....The fact that these older pencils are still being used and haven't shattered into a million bits, while my brand spanking new pencils shatter if I stare at them too long...tells the tale. It's also the reason why I switched to Polychromos pencils...I had that wonderful set of 48 with the self standing packaging. It was the best. .Prismacolor...I hardly knew ye.....(lol) Keep it up Rae...I've been around the art world for a long time, and your videos are some of the best!! BTW...one more thing...it's not just an uneven core, or that the pencils are a softer formula...I'm fine with that...BUT the pencils break because the pigment cores are not glued onto the surrounding wood. Because of this, whenever a pencil is dropped (either in shipping or whatever) the core shatters into a million bits and that is why you often cannot sharpen them. I have tried heating up the pencils to soften and "heal" broken cores...but unfortunately, until the makers of this wonderfully buttery soft core start gluing those puppies in place...this will never stop. And I just couldn't justify paying good money for a pencil that I used once because every time I used it, it would break, and then break in the sharpener, again, and again, and again.......on infinitum....you get the picture.
Me- can’t even afford prismacolors
Rae- can afford ancient pencils
Take a look on Amazon sometimes you can find a 36 set for 24-30 bucks. :3
pay attention to black friday sales. also a 24 pack is usually about $20
I got mine off Ebay for 20 something dollars and they were all there in good condition.
About a year or two ago I found the 132-count set at 25$ so definitely keep an eye for sales on Amazon :)
@Canal da luli Tax write off!
Rae, I’m so happy you seem to be having fun making videos again! I know for me at least, it makes watching the video an enjoyable time so thank you for staying true to yourself, we ❤️ you!
1939 *Old Prismacolors*
Me: *Thinking*: So someone said, "We sold Prismacolors during WW2."
Also Me: Very interesting. I knew they were around for 80 years, not interesting, but WW2? Very InTeReStInG! DaMn, SoN!
Edit: I learned something today, and I never knew that Prismacolors were around for 80, man!
Wow
Uh?
Loved this! Maybe I just have a heavy hand, because my Prismas break a LOT and it was driving me up the wall. I still want some Faber Castell sets (or even fancier) but maybe I can be less harsh on my poor loyal standby, Prismacolor. Thank you for sharing.
*notices that the 90's doesn't have a white*
It has a white, 3:43 notice that?
Next: Faber Castell from the past versus the future.
You mean from 1761? XD
@@adriang1921 Yes, however those are probably impossible to find anymore. So, as ancient as possible with Faber Castell.
I love these types of videos especially like the ones about the paints that you can't get anymore, they are so interesting and I never get bored of them
Love ya❤️
I personally love love LOVE how soft prismacolors are >w< I've been coloring with them here recently and am in love with how they blend. But I get upset when they get jacked up from the pencil sharpener in art lol
7:40, in their ”how it's made” video, they showed that their pencils are very strong.
*I'm certain Rae has a special relationship with crayola xD*
She hearted this. Oh dear
Thank you so much for your review! I started using Prismacolor colored pencils back in the 60's because my art teacher made it mandatory we use that particular brand, which was supposed to be the best brand. Through the years I also tried some other well known professional colored pencils brands, but I still prefer, use and rely on Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencils.
Welcome back, old Rae ❤
You seem happier and I love that for you!
Much love!
Material do get old and brittle over time. I remember those pencils being soft. Like when you have new crayola crayons their better than the old ones. They do expire at times even though they shouldn't.
My american prismacolor still don't break and their butter smooth still but I keep them in a not so dry but dry area. So if your pencils came from texas or other silly hot states like California... they might be not the best reputations of what they were long ago.
Just to edit and add. It's because things still have moisture in them even wax unless their are products like dry pastel that they wont loss their consistence. Wax actually have moisture and when it loses it in products it cause them to not work well but to much of it can hinder it too.
I was watching a video of yours when this popped up
Same
This was an awesome comparison! You were fortunate to have found those older pencils. It was interesting to see how off-center the colors were. Thank you for sharing a part of your day with us!
Congratulations this is a super content. Love history + art together
Love when you test out old art supplies!!

Stop harassing people with your shitty grammar
(They’ve been bothering people in other comments)
Great video! I think another thing to consider is the effects of aging on old stock. I don’t think that a 1930s era pencil will perform the same way today as it did when it was new. But this is a factor that is virtually impossible to test unless you have the resources to make a new pencil using the original formula.
I’m watching this in 2020 and it feels good to hear 2019 again ;v;
No one:
Rae: let's dig in old art supplies!
I'm in love with the 80s Prismacolor packaging!
Me too. It's like it is saying, "you're about to have some fun!"
I had a set gifted to me in the 90s (I'm thinking 1994- because that's when I created my first OCs and used them for concept art) like when I was in 5th grade (god..) and I remember them being so much better. There are pieces I have from back then (when I sure as hell didn't know how to use them LMAO) and there's NO waxbloom, and if it's there, it's not that bad. Fast forward to pieces I did in 2015, and it's all over the piece. I gave up on them and moved on to Polychromos by Faber Castell- more expensive but well worth it!!
I have a set of 60 from 1984. Berol. One of the few things I have from my glorious childhood. They still have that " smell". Great video.

Tidela 471 85k views, thats not even $1000 with monetization. She probably spent far more on the supplies for the video than that.
Xersys she has millions on others
You have 666 likes I will change it to 667
Oh man. The 90s packaging! Takes me back to my first set
I still have Berol prismacolours that belonged to my brothers! On the pencil was a white stretched out bubble to write your name on each one for when you bring them to school! Back in the days when your parents bought your supplies. Loved this video
Yayayy🔥🔥 amazing as always gal!🤩
i love your vids so much rae please never stop these! you've inspired me to start art!
Hi Rae! I just wanna say thank you for inspiring me to improve my art. And I just decided to create my own art channel all thanks to you! I really hope to be as successful as you are
At 55 I have a nice selection of Prismacolors from Eagle to Berol to today’s version. Maybe it’s because of what I’m used to, but I still grab my older ones first! Another neat test would be between Faber Castell Polychromos and what was an absolute staple in Canadian Schools, the Laurentine coloured pencils that were made for school kids. Only about five years ago I discovered that they were made by Faber Castell. I searched my mom’s house for an old set and dang, they were freaking good!
It always makes me wonder when I see pencils that old, what people drew with them all those decades ago. Also, I would LOVE to work in that pencil factory❤️. Lovely video, rae, as usual😍
Moon Lampje Me too!👍
Omg love you! I know this video will be bomb! I absolutely love you and the way you make your videos. I live everything about your channel, keep up the good work!
I just love your channel! You are a positive force of art energy yet with splashes of humor to balance.
omg im feeling old... the "90s case" is what I used in high school lol also it opens in a weird was and stands up holding the pencils for you, kind of like a little picture frame, I think you slide the box up and fold it back to reveal the pencils.... ugh its been while lol
I am really glad I subbed. I found you from the video about the various interesting paints like Paris Green and Mummy brown! Taking a look at an art product's changes through the ages is so fricken cool!!
*when you look back back at the 100 year old colored pencils and you hear eagle pencil company then hear rae say 80 years*
Me: huh wasn't it 100?
81 years. Prismacolor was founded in 1938 not 1919.
@@Jayde419 I'm just going back to another vid she made xD
The company may be 100 years old, but the prismacolors are only 80. Eagle Pencil Co made graphite pencils originally.
No one seemed to notice that there wasnt a "test one" but two "test two" s and a "test four" but no "test three" lmao
Joined the Raevolution as soon as I first saw your channel. Back then you were the one that gave me inspiration and hope. Love you💟
I'm actually really curious now. Since the old ones seem to be a harder core, if they might be similar to the verithin ones.
That’s an interesting idea
Verithin. Is that a brand name? I've never heard of them.
@@tracymarie4633 it is a type of prismacolor pencils. I maybe should have included that in my original comment
StarSinger it’s not a brand, but more of a type of Pencil made by Prismacolors (and other brands I believe)
Crayola~ *Ok*
Prismacolor~ *GUCCI STUFF* 😂😂
Sooooo true😂😂😅
I have a bunch of the Berol pencils from high school and I prefer them over the ones I bought about four years ago. The old ones were smoother, so much less waxy and extra soft compared to the newer ones.
That's actually really impressive, especially when you consider that chemicals do tend to break down / change with time! The old ones might of been just as blend-able, had they not been as old as they were. ;-)
What a great idea for a video! I found it fun to watch, interesting to learn about, and heres the kicker...I rarely, if ever, use colour pencils! And yet I loved this video. Basically coz I love your style Rae 😁✌
Rae’s drawings 2017 or 2019. Which one is better?
(They all are still amazing)
"And currently, in *2019,* when you're hearing this right now..*
Me: *laughs in 2020*
I chuckled then immediately sighed and got sad
Me in 2021 almost 2022: 👁👄👁
People: go to the future
Rae: back to the past to get pencils then come back to the present
On the final drawing, was she just using the 30s ones and the 2019 ones, or the 30s and the 80s together and the 2019 and the 90s together, or 30s, 80s, 90s together and the 2019 one for the new?
Miss "Nancy Drew's" rudeness aside...I wondered the same thing. She didn't clarify that and it could be any of things you mentioned. I personally thought original & 80's vs 90's & now. But it could have been just the original vs now and skipped the 80's & 90's since 80's was similar to old and 90's similar to new. Anywho, doesn't really matter to me...idk why I watch these videos, I'm not an artist. Not a good one, anyway! 😄 I guess I still find it interesting and I like Rae's personality.
Sweet Insanity I’m not an artist, either, but I was curious. Haha. There’s also the fact that she said the formula most likely changed around the 90s area, so I didn’t know if she was comparing formulas, either 🤷🏻♀️
I used the 30s/80s and the modern (skipped using the 90s since they’re the same as the modern) 😎🎉
SuperRaeDizzle Ooh, okay. Thank you, Rae! ❤️
Prismacolors are my brand of pencil! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

That 90’s 24 was my first prismacolor set, I still have it. The package is a little cheap but it does transform into an easel to make them easier to access while using them. I also have two 48 piece sets and a 120 from the late 90’s-mid 2000’s. Oddly enough, the 120 has Sanford prismacolor stamped on them instead of Berol.
5:34 HUH DID U JUST SAY OK BOOMER
Guys this is IMPORTANT Rae just said OK BOOMER
Uhh no, she didn’t, it was supposed to be us that could say “ok boomer” not Rae🙄
That caption was supposed to reflect the voice of the audience. She was making fun of herself saying "They're kinda lit now" and the joke is that we the viewers are rolling our eyes like "Lit? Uh ok, Boomer".
Love these types of videos!!
Ok. Thank you thank you for making this video. Even my art professor and other artists I’ve talked to/artists I’ve watched on UA-cam have all said that the old prismacolors used to be sooo much better. I freaked out when I bought my first set bc just after I got it my art professor had basically told us that the new ones are literal trash. This is so interesting to see that the whole time it was just that their formula changed. Also idk why everyone says prismacolor is better than Fabre castell. I have both and Fabre castell is gorgeous haha. Both are great in my opinion.
The newest prism as that I looked at in hobby lobby were not the same pencil you showed at the end in the tin. There was no gold band, they said premier but were skinnier and not lacquered. The quality is no longer there. They were so skinny I would not be comfortable holding them for hours with my 80 year old hands. Any pencils before 1996 are useful.
A mean girls ad played after she said “you go Glenn coco” coincidence or not????
