- Опубліковано 19 лип 2022
- Today I'm unboxing a brand new set of Faber Castell watercolor markers! I've been in love with watercolor markers for my mixed media art projects for years, but only recently discovered Faber Castell makes a GIANT watercolor markers set filled with 30 colors! Press play for a full Faber Castell watercolor markers review. We'll test these beauties against my favorite Winsor Newton watercolor markers, and compare their performance against mixed media artist brand favorites made by Ecoline and Tombow.

man, now I want new watercolor markers, lol. Thanks for the comparison, it is sooo helpful.
You're so welcome Lori, thanks for watching!!
Great video, with tons of terrific teaching and sharing. Thank you so much.
Thanks so much Sandra!
Hello from Texas Karen! Thanks for the product review. Very helpful! I’ve wondered which watercolor markers to get. Now I’m sold on the Faber-Castell. Appreciate your help in this matter!🖊🖍🖌🖋
You're very welcome Tyra!! Thanks for watching!
Thank you Karen for the video and sharing it with us. It very informative!❤️ beautiful colors!
You're welcome Robyn! Thanks for watching!
(mind using "flesh tone" when only white skin is represented. I see your set of tombow multiple skin colors.)
Great point. Taken!
Ohh I thought it was the color underneath your skin the ones you'll see in between muscles, like fat or connecting tissue between muscles or muscle itself , or like chicken meat. I don't think it's supposed to be the color of the skin🤔 , by definition it's not skin, it's the layer in between skin and Bones.
@@chi5065 omg ew!! But also oooh!! I haven’t even thot of that! You’re probably right! Thanks for that little nugget!
Oh my gosh. I really want these now. Now I just slowly built up my tombow collection! I wish you would do more projects with watercolor markers for a really love the gradient of color and the quickness of doing a project. So while you have some projects, you just need more! And more with the new and upcoming subjects! Thank you Karen for sharing this, and taking a hit for the team by buying all these art supplies. 😊
Will do!! I absolutely could not agree more! And I'm so happy all of my splurging makes it worthwhile!! Yet another reason to buy more! lol!!!
Thanks Karen. I've been experimenting with watercolors lately. After using acrylics for years my transition is slow but I'm enjoying the process. Maybe trying watercolor brushes would help
It is a super fun art supply, I have to say!! Also gives you so much control that regular watercolors lacks so may definitely be a good segue for you!
You are fun! Oh I'm so happy I found your channel! I've been binge watching you all last night and now all this morning and your personality is just wonderful!
Oh byw-i didn't know this markers did that!!! So thank you for that!
Thank you! Glad to have you here!
Thanks, I have the F.C. and was wanted more info on them. I learned a lot from this video about watercolor markers.
I feel love like I don’t deserve them 😂🤪🤓 though.
You totally deserve them!
Thank you for comparing the markers. I am a big Tombow fan!!! Looking forward to part 2 of the video. The Faber Castell markers are really nice. The colors are amazing. ❤
Thanks for watching, Madelyn!!!
Thank you!!! I love them ALL!!!
RIght?!? ME TOO!!!!
Really good review
Thank you, Ellie!
Thank you for this comparison. It was great to see them in a side by side test.
You're so welcome Cheryl! Thanks for watching!
Hey Karen! These look awesome and I may have to buy some to add to my stash😃 thank you! ✌️ Enjoy your day! Lori
Thanks so much, Lori!
Nib comparison tip: make a stamp with the side of the nib (creates a small leaf pattern).
Ooh, great tip, thank you!!!
Thanks Karen for the comparison. I wonder how are these markers compare to the Zig watercolor markers, as I own some (the 36 color set), but want to expand my collection.
I'm a professional art supply collector. Still waiting to be much of an artist! :)
Time to put those supplies to paper my friend!! You can do it!!
Glad you did this, now that I am using Golden's Satin Glazing I am using watercolors more in my books and I was hoping to find some good ones. Looks like I needs to get some new markers ;) . I have Potique which is water soluble but not a true watercolor.
Thanks for watching!
Hi Karen and friends! I know that Faber Castell watercolor markers are one of your favorites but I'm wondering if you or any of your friends have tried the Arteza Everblend Ultra H2o markers? Are they comparable to the Faber Castell?
Arteza is a craft brand so they may activate great! But they’ll be filled with dye based watersoluble ink like their other waterbased products! Which I do love too! But they aren’t lightfast.
Love the comparison! I would love to get some Faber Castell markers! I must say the tombow surpised me a bit with how good they reacted after the drying! And great idea to use the fine tip for colouring. I loved your explanation of watercolour markers being useful for precision! I love to be precise ánd being able to blend on colouring pages. Hmm maybe I need both brands now🤔
So appreciate your feedback! Totally support grabbing both! I love both brands! Thank you for watching!
Great demo! Super helpful and informative! Thank you, @KarenCampbellMixedMedia for doing these videos!
You're so welcome my friend, Thanks for watching!
Thank you for funding our education!! 🤣🎨 "I'll buy them all so you don't have to"!!
You are so very welcome!
Red beige is the skin tone in Windsor Newton. Also, Windsor Newton’s markers are $4.50 each at Blick.
Thank you!
I found two of the 5 packs on sale at HL for $9 clearanced ! I love them too and want to get the rest!
No way!!! Sooo lucky!!!
Was just last week deciding to dive into these markers! Can’t really justify the 30 color set, but will be ordering a smaller set today.
I would love to use you swatch sheet, so let me know how to obtain this.
Thank you so much.
Oh for sure! Any colors you can get your hands on would be fun! Here is the link to the free swatch page! awesomeartschool.lpages.co/swatch-out-free/
I already had set of 10 of these. Got them on Mercari for $25. Just found the portrait set of 5 at hobby lobby yesterday marked down to $7! The other sets would have given me duplicates. But....score!
They are a very good product, however be careful how they are stored as they can leak. Mine are left in the box and stored flat but there are 3 colours that have leaked so far and I live in UK so no extreme weather. The really good thing about these markers is you can draw with them and go back 30 minutes or even 60 minutes after and they will still dissolve with water as though you have just laid down the colour.
Good to know, thank you!
Thank you for this video. one big disadvantage of these pencils is the price, which is almost double that of a paint set. Otherwise, I've tried them for the advantage of being able to carry them around easily.
Agreed! But like all fine art products you do actually get what you pay for (and in these case being lightfastness and so purely pigmented is worth it in my opinion- that and I’m just a hoarder 😂)
Amazon has the Winsor&Newton 24 marker pack for less than $66 with free shipping from Amazon UK. 💖
That's an awesome deal, thanks for sharing!
Have the full set Tombow but I want this ! Do I neeed it-nope 😅 I prefer more selection than 30 tho, so will wait
I totally get that, Maria!
The Windsor and Newton are cheaper in the UK. I’ve found individuals for under £4 and a set of 6 for £20. I think brands price differently for different countries 🤷🏻♀️ Can I ask which watercolour paper you were using for the test please as non of my watercolour pens in any brand release colour like that! I have some Tombow and others as well as some Karin markers which were expensive and unfortunately I find vary with colour as to how well they work! Thanks
Yes that makes sense to me as Winsor and Newton are made in the UK - so lower shipping costs than in the US. I’m working on Fabriano Hot Press (smooth) Watercolor paper 9" x 12" 50 sheets

And thank you for the notes and for watching!
@@KarenCampbellArtist thanks, I may have to try that brand
Getting my head around makers
Have some WN but will buy FC
Markers are crazy fun! Enjoy playing with them!
They are a step up from Tombows. The outside of my box says they are water based ink. I bought the whole set anyway because they act more like watercolor than Tombows.
Yes! The water base-ness of them is what makes them watercolors! They are amazing, you'll love them!
In Europe the ecoline are cheaper than the tombows! However the Windsor and newton are the best for me although short in colors…
Crazy how pricing is different all over the place.
@@KarenCampbellArtist oh and just for playing around Faber Castell also has the “goldfaber” watercolor pens and in my opinion more juicy than the tombows! Sorry to burst you bubble Karen!!!🤣😂 maybe you would like to check them out as well!
@@soniascrafts omg - I just bought the entire set AND the portrait set 🤣🤣🤣 they ship from the UK only - they aren’t available in the US which is why I probably have never come across them!! Thank you!! (Altho your comment just cost me $91 🤣🤣🤣) but I’m excited to test them out! Woot!
What paper did you use? (I’ve been having a hard time blending my Tombows.)
My fave is Fabriano - I think hot pressed for this one!

@@KarenCampbellArtist Thanks!!
Did you do the demo video yet?
Yep! The SECRET to Make Your WATERCOLOR MARKERS Behave BETTER in your Mixed Media Projects

That winsor newton price is not correct. I have a 24 set I paid around $60 for. Now that was like 20% off or something. And the set of 12 regular price was like $45 or 50. I like the FC better but they are slightly more expensive, but comperable.
Prices vary by country and marketplace. The prices I gave here are what they are listed on Amazon in the US. If you’re buying from a different store and/or country prices will definitely vary. Thanks for bringing it up!
Yikes...I love to layer watercolours and if the pigment activates after they dry...im worried about muddy-ness....did you try layering?
To prevent issues like this I’d use a sealer between layers so interaction does not occur.
Hi Karen,
What type of sealer would you use? Thankyou 🙂
Are these alcohol based Faber-Castell watercolor markers ?
So either markers are either alcohol based OR waterbased and the waterbased ones are the ones that “melt” like watercolors.
So these are water-based and yet even more special because they have done art quality watercolors inside! . I hope that helps!
@@KarenCampbellArtist yes ty I hate markers with alcohol . I wonder if they are sold individually like the Tombow markers I use . Thx for this video
What brushes did you say you’re using Karen? Did anyone else catch it?
I pretty much only use brushes by Polina Bright! I’m obsessed!

@@KarenCampbellArtist Thank you! I’ll check them out!❤️❤️❤️
You shouldn’t say flesh tone just because it’s your flesh tone, people have different flesh tones…
Please accept my apologies, you’re absolutely correct.
