I can't wait to see a new doll customization with the new Derwent Inktense Pencils!!!
In some areas of art art supplies are the last thing you need to worry about, but in others they're the key to success.
I did exactly what you describe at the beginning of the video "I want to try this...but cheaply..." so I bought a cheap "matte" sealer that made the doll shiny and sticky and had no tooth, and a cheap 72 pack of watercolor pencils and it was a disaster full of broken pencils, wrist cramps and a poor sticky head that color couldn't build any darker pigments on...so I acetoned the whole thing to start over, but you know what... It was stained! Either the pencils leached or I pressed so hard I actually tattooed the vinyl head :( I guess the good news is I was going to do the same face over again, but with better materials. I bought some Mr. Super Clear, and then your Arteza review came out and I bought those pencils with FAR better results. I also recently got a used Derwent INKtense 12 pack from a friend that I am very very excited to try thanks to your video review. This was a fantastic comparison piece, and it will prevent me from buying other not-good pencils.
Other ideas for similar videos:
-different kinds of airbrushes/airbrush paints
-acrylics
-any sealers other than Mr Super Clear you've tried and the result
-best clay/heat form plastic/other compounds to use for accessories
-best materials to use for doll clothes
These are excellent requests, great ideas!
I’ve always wanted to see other sealants than Mr. super clear because it seems pretty universal
Yes to other versions of mr s clear please. We cant get it in the uk without paying about £14 + shipping!
I think the staining had nothing to do with the pencils and everything with the sealant. The sealant is key to success.
I know this was a year ago at least from when I am commenting but for the first doll I customized instead of me using MSC which is very toxic without a respirator so I instead used Duraclear which is a brush on sealant but it works really well for me. Hope this helps for you and or any future people who come across this comment :)
This is so eerie! Just last night I was going through my pencils trying to sketch a doll face yelling “I BET MS ATELIER KNOWS WHICH ONES TO USE AHH” and I wake up to this ahh haha amazing.
wow! I love when these things happen to me! it feels like the universe is answering my actual questions))
A similar thing happened to me!!! 😱
Same, im saying : "you should watch this week end : poppenateliers vidéos to See what pencils she uses "
Yes! I work in an art shop so these kinds of detailed videos give me so much more info to discuss with my customers!! Doll Re-Painting is becoming so popular!
It’s gotten so popular because there’s more people on the planet.
@@bobnunyabiznz4917lmao no that’s not the reason 😂😂
@@ALT-vz3jn Uhmmmm. Educate yourself on the exponential rate of population, kiddo.
I can help you with one brand name: Stabilo is a german brand and you can pronounce it really hard with a „sch“ and a „t“ at the beginning like in the german words „Stuhl“ or „Stehen“.
This is an outstanding video, very through review, extremely helpful and interesting. It makes me happy to see it because I see a wonderful lesson but it makes me sad cause I bought my Faber Castell Alber Dureh tin thinking they were the best I could get and now I know they are not... they were the recommended ones from a very good doll customizer and I thought her choice would be the ideal. My money is not wasted because they are good anyway... but now i have that urge to get the Derwent ones, maybe the Arteza... oooh, the art material world is a though one! Thank you for this video, it is a very good job.
Fancylooks now you also know you can sell yours on Ali Express :)))
@@LeelooRedRed Aliexpress? Are you sure Aliexpress is a place where you can sell what you don't need or want?
Dude, like 37 minutes in, & I just realized the Ice King in the background. He legit scared the crap out of me for a second. 😂❄️👑
I've noticed him there also just when I've started editing the video))))
😂 I was looking for The Ice King from Adventure Time... 🤦🏽♀️
@@YaoiAndPockyLover My first thought too 😂Also Snape is the best!
As the avid researcher that I am before making purchases (I like to have the best I can afford, and am extra particular about art supplies, electronics, cooking things, and makeup), this video was a DREAM COME TRUE for me. Thank you SOOOOO so much. Many people have recommendations, but now I had the chance to see different recommendations paired next to each other and decide what I want for my different needs. THANK YOU!
I would love to see more videos like this mixed in with the regular content.
Maybe a comparison test to see which yarns work best for wigs?
A tool comparison to see which blades cut doll hair best for styling short doll wigs?
A sculpting clay comparison might also be interesting.
Somehow this video managed to grab my attention for the whole 39 minutes and it was quite informative. I liked Derwent and Stabilo's performance.
I suck at everything I touch. I don't exaggerate when I say this, I really mean I have gone my whole life without an artistic outlet for my very artistic brain. When I heard about doll customizing, I knew...this is for me.
I have never drawn professionally before, nor have I have ever painted on a canvas before. I am a beginner in all things "art".
But I knew I wanted this hobby. It was perfect for me, it was exciting for me, it was liberating to finally look at an art form and say "I can do this".
So I went out and bought Arteza watercolor pencils, Arteza acrylic paints, Mungyo soft pastels, a bunch of micro-glitters. I bought cheapy make-up brushes for the soft pastels, I bought tiny brushes for tiny doll details. I spent $300 on supplies alone, non of which I had previously. I also spent $150 on a small doll collection to repaint, and I finally started.
And let me tell you...I went from talentless hack to making a VERY impressive starter doll that I couldn't believe I had made. And I can't help but imagine how broken hearted I would have been if I had used lesser quality supplies, totally effed up my whole project, and given up on my dream before it could begin.
I now have plans to make a career of customizing and selling my works. I also have a UA-cam channel made and waiting in the wings for when I have an okay camera to film on. I am excited, and have a hobby for the first time in my life. And I have Maryna to thank for inspiring me. So thank you. 💞😇💞
Congrats on finding your path! Where could I check out your dolls?
Congratulation for finding your own artistic way! I hope you find a good camera soon, i love watching doll customizing videos! One day, i'll do the same, maybe! I already bought second hand dolls, MSC, just gotta start now!

PhuzDolls is the name I plan on advertising under, so check there in the near future. My YT channel, maybe an Etsy someday, but right now I just plan to sell locally.
Maybe I'll get an Instagram up very soon to show off my work. I'm trying to move out to a new home soon, so I haven't thought of getting anything set up yet that I could showcase my work on. AH!!! Lol
@@PhuzBee good luck 😊
I love your “quest for truth” when it comes to how art supplies perform. This is so helpful!!
How about testing different kinds of sealers, soft pastels, doll hairs? Also, can you maybe do a step by step video of how to apply a face up that would suite beginners, some tips would be nice too. This playlist is very entertaining yet educational.
Awesome video! You were quite right when you said that Inktense are playing in another league. They are not watercolour pencils, they are acrylic paint pencils. I guess, it doesn't really matter in doll repaint, but on paper it's a big deal, because you can activate them with water only once. Once they are dry, the colour becomes permanent and wouldn't move even if you add more water.
I love you for saying that you needed good supplies to draw well!♥️ Most of people especially here on UA-cam says that you can draw with everything, but this is not true at all. Using poor quality supplies make you hate drawing because nothing looks as good as you want. You do not have to buy professional but there are plenty of students quality supplies that can be used! Thank you for this video! Maybe more people will try to fall in love with creating things ;)♥️
To be fair, they aren't required...but they do help. =3 You literally CAN draw with anything....do you WANT to draw with eyeliner, coffee, lipstick, charcoal briquettes.....is the real question. Time spent is the real key to success above any supplies on the market...but having nice supplies can make it easier to want to put the time in. I get what you're saying here, but there is literally no 'magical' art supply on the market that will make you the 'amazing artist' you want to be other than practice and drive....both of which you have to bring to the table yourself....but at least they're free~!
@@firegodessreiko I get your point but coffee and other things that are not usually used for drawing is a different matter. This whole thing is more based on psychology. If you draw with coffee bad it is easier to continue to try drawing as you do not feel that everyone can use it for drawing. I was the best example of this thing. I really wanted to paint with watercolors but I only had the cheapest ones and all my paintings were really bad quality and I always said that I cannot use paint or anything similar (I hated every brush existing 😂) This lasted more than 10years. One day I saw beautiful paiting and I tried recreating it. That time I saw the difference in types of paint and I bought myself students quality watercolors (around 10USD) and God I fall in love with painting. Good quality materials helped me to convince myself that I can draw and paint and now I love doing it. Artist can use literary everything to creating art as they trained a lot and know pros and cons of materials but people who just are discovering art world need to have good base to not be discouraged.
I am thinking a person is to have two to even three different brands, pending on what affect the artist wants. Blending or intense strokes. Great demonstration .. creative love sent your way.
I was about to buy some expensive Faber Castell pencils, but after seeing this I’m going to order Stabilo Aquacolor! Thank you, I’ve learned so much today. I can’t wait to get started on my doll.
This was fantastic!! My artist daughter was very interested in this comparison!
I'd be interested in seeing you compare soft pastel brands in a similar way! Thanks!!
Your channel has inspired me to try doll customizing! I’ve customized one doll so far and my 2nd is currently a work in progress. I love your personality and your dolls/your art, and I just wanted to say you’re awesome! ☺️❤️
I started off with cheap colored pencils, and I was wondering how you guys get the lines that dark on the first, and now I know what to look for in pencils
I'm so happy it was useful for you!
Hi. I’m gonna keep coming here until UA-cam fixes their mistake. You are a wonderful artist. Don’t give up!
Derwent just looks really "real" to me..like she looks extremely real and I freaking love it!
A few of the other customizers that I watch use different pencils for different things, for example: Derwent to really lay down saturated base colors, but a harder pencil like Faber-castell to do eyelashes and detail in the lips. Make the traits of the product work for you, I think might be a better idea rather than to be loyal to just one brand expecting it to do it all. I really enjoyed this review! Very interesting to see the results side by side.
I'm happy the arteza performed so well because that's the one I bought
This experiment is so detailed, I truly appreciate it when you do things like this. Thank you!!
Wow!! What an extraordinary video. I love Derwent pencils on doll's customizing. Thanks for sharing dear!!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!!! I am wanting to try doll customizing so badly and this has been something that has stopped me from trying so far. I am 40, a mom of 2, a wife, and a substitute teacher and it is really hard for me to justify the expense for a hobby that I may not even enjoy, let alone be any good at. I really appreciate this because at least if I take the plunge, I won't be throwing money away on something that I can't even use.
Love the Marge Simpson doll in the background
Марина, спасибо Вам огромное за это видео, за проделанную работу, за помощь в выборе!!! Вы реально экономите нам время и деньги. Спасибо!!!!!!🙏
Thank you! It's hard to find out what materials work for you as an artist and So so many factors like heat/ humidity/ price / style etc all effect the artwork differently I luckily have a nearby shop where I can buy Watercolor pencils individually from different brands so I shall be testing some out for myself soon I suggest that other people unsure of brand/quality try a single pencil in the different brands
Thank you for doing this! I almost made a really bad purchase. I have been wanting to try doll repainting for ages, and I think I am going to try the Stabilo pencils, they are a really modest price and seemed to perform well.
This must have been so labor intensive! I can really tell how much you love what you do. Derwent pencils were one of the first pencils I ever bought, but I've never really used them much. That's going to change, right now. I very much appreciated this wonderful video. Thankyou.
Thank you for this video, it really helped me personally in choosing watercolor pencils. Once again I was convinced that my favorite brands since childhood are still at their best and are not losing ground. Stabilo and koh-i-noor.
Recently got Derwent 'Academy' watercolour pencils since they were a good price and they've been marvelous you could literally do one layer and it would look like multiple it's that good and pigmented
This was the comment I was looking for, trying to decide between Derwent Inktense or Academy
@@Ashimuro do the inktense ones work on dolls? Sorry, I’m new to all this. Are watercolor pencils the only kind of colored pencil that works on dolls?
@@nanelawe9216 I'm finding that the inktense works well, but Faber works even better on my dolls personally, but im fairly new too
@@Ashimuro Thanky
@@nanelawe9216 no prob! Hope your project turns out good!
I really appreciate this
Supracolor and Derwent it is
I'm so glad you did this because when I start repainting dolls I'll know what to look for👍❤❤. Thankyou 😁😋👌
This is super helpful! I'm starting with doll customizing and did exactly what you told, bought a 12 piece of cheap watercolor pencils and a cheap sealant and it was a total disaster. Sticky shiny head with awful pigmentation. Then I saw Derwent pencils on someone's video (I think it was dollightful's) and bought a pretty decent 24 Derwent pack, bought MSC and the difference was huge! I'm finishing my second doll but I'm super happy I failed and then bought better materials so I'm aware of what I need. This video will help a lot of people who want to start! Thank you so much for your time, help and talent! You're the reason I wanted to try doll customizing. Big hug from Mexico!
I started watching twin peaks because of how much you love it and I’m in love with agent cooper and how quirky he is ❤️❤️❤️
Magnificent analysis. It has helped me a lot, because I was going to buy the faber castells, but after this analysis, in my opinion, speaking of value for money, the best ones to start with are the stabilo, by far.
When I have verified that I really like this and have practiced a lot, I will take the derwent.
I use Derwent, but I love to have options and for some reason I found this kind of videos very relaxing😌 like ASMR, thank you for that 😋💕
I am so happy to have found this video of comparison because watercolor pencils are expensive and it is great to see which ones are better on dolls. Thank you very much
О, я как раз тот человек, который наступил на грабли дешевых карандашей с Али и в итоге все забросил, так что спасибо за столь наглядное сравнение, начну сначала с нормальными материалами)
Вообще я бы с удовольствием смотрела подобный формат видео, мне кажется это было бы очень полезно. На бумаге тестирует материалы каждый третий, а вот именно на куклах увидела впервые. Спасибо вам за проделанную работу :)
I love these types of videos, you could do a video like this with chalk pastels. What ones are best for shading, blushing and highlighting.
Thank you for making this video! I've been using the Faber Castel pencils for over a year now and had no idea there were actually better options out there for me to try! 💕 I really enjoyed this type of video and would be happy to see more of them in the future, especially one on pastels! ❤
I really like this video! I totally support the idea of doing a different sort of video once a month or so!
Thank you Thank you Thank you! I love this. I bought Fabre Castell pencils and they never preform the way I'd like and I always think "It must be me!".
Turns out they are not the worst but not the best which is why I struggle.
Thak you again! You do a fabulous job testing
Oooooh, interesting. I‘ll get some tea
Fantastic video, so informative and interesting! It would be great if you did more of these for other materials you use in your doll repaints (pastels, sealants, ...), and indeed other investigations/experiments would be really interesting to see. As usual, a pleasure to watch, and thank you for sharing your knowledge and art!
The value of this video is incredible! Thank you so much. You are a treasure and your work is an inspiration ❤
I'm so glad I found this video. I almost spent a fortune on faber castell pencils thinking that they were the best ones out there since so many doll artists use them! I'll be trying out derwent instead based on what I've seen here and what I can afford.
I really like this experiment 😍😍
Thank you so much for this awesome comparison video! I just returned my Arteza set and ordered a Derwent set!
They say that a good artist doesn't blame their tools. So idk how that had anything to do with this but I know I couldn't do what you do even if I had the best pencils in the world! You just have plain, amazing, talent. That is intrinsic and cannot be defined by tools. Yeah it may look or feel a bit better to work with, but at the end of the day you are an artist who can do things that the rest of us only dream about. I couldn't make the eyes you do even if I tried reeeeaaallly hard with caran d'ache pencils. I kno that for a fact lol. Love you!
You should finish these dolls and do a giveaway with them! Even with the low quality pencils, they're gorgeous!
Thank you so much for this video, it's exactly what I needed!
I am currently in the market for some good quality watercolour pencils and having a difficult time to decide between Caran D'Ache, Faber Castel and Derwent.
I bought some very hard watercolour pencils years ago that don't perform at all, so I got discouraged and thought that watercolour pencils were not for me.
I'm excited to give watercolour pencils another try now, good art supplies really are key! ❤
Thank you so much for making this video! It's so so useful to see them all tested like this, I would love to see more art materiaals compared in this way :D :D
After ordering the wrong Arteza Pencils (waxbased) I decided to buy the Stabilo Pencils since they are reasonable priced here in Germany:
I've drawn one single layer so far and already love them. Thank you for recommending them!!
I was trying to find a decent pencil to use on dolls, then I came across this video. I'm so appreciative that you did this!
I have had problems with the white of the eye. Everything else works for me. It wasn’t until I saw your video that I realized my very pricey pencils were last on the list. I just ordered a set of the ones you use for repaints. Thank you so much for your honest and instructional videos. I have always painted but I have learned much from you. God bless!!
You should make a video about different types of doll hair. Saran Vs. Nylon etc. and using different rerooting tools. Test the hair with heat and how easy it is to style. Etc.
This video is very satisfying, especially when you were drawing the colors and comparing them side-by-side on paper!! my friend is an artist and now I know what to get her for Christmas
So relieved to see this. When I first decided to do doll makeovers I bought Derwent on impulse as it was on sale on amazon then started to worry that I didn't get the best quality as none of the UA-camrs I watch really use them. so I'm happy to see this. Still haven't had the courage to try face repaint but at least I know when I take the dive I have the right pencils for it. Thank you
I just purchased some individual Derwent inktense pencils for doll customizing a couple days ago, because of how intense they were on a paper test. Colour me excited when I saw you posted this video, actually getting to see the results on a doll face and your feedback on them. What a weird coincidence! Thank you for doing this! Your videos have been so helpful and motivating to get me back into attempting doll customizing
I'm really glad you did this because I've been wanting to get into doll customization. I knew you had some tutorials but didn't know you've done a video for color pencil testing. I purchased some Faber Castel, Arteza and Prisma Premiere water color pencils but after seeing Arteza crumbling may or may not use them. One thing I've been doing is making seperate purchases over time so I'm not breaking my bank account. I also use the water color in other art forms too so they haven't gone to waste! I've also known that you, Hextian and Dollightful do use acrylic yarn so that helps save a lot on doll hair when you can't easily get ahold of it. Mr. Superclear is just one thing like you said is hard to get ahold of.
I personally haven't drawn in years. I'm more of a craft person but my sister and I always used to try to get 'the best' pencils and its true that Faber Castell is almost always recommended!
We wrre also lucky enough years ago to get a small tin of Derwent Inktense pencils at a ridiculously low price, because they were the last set in the store and weren't even on the system anymore. The closest product the cashier could find was another Derwent item that was only £4.80! There was no price label where we found them either so she had to put it through for that price 🤭
I found this video really helpful and I do think it is a good thing to have videos like this every now and then :) it helps show what is possible and to make the best choice for us personally. Thank you for doing this and I'm glad you're so happy with your new Derwent babies after splashing out on them :P x
After seeing so many recommendations for faber castle I bought some and was ready for my first face up!
I realised they werny watercolour so needed to buy some more 😭
watched this video first and now I'm off to buy some Derwent!
this video helps loads thank you 🥰
Loved this!! Thank you so much for the in-depth testing of the different brands! I might go with Stabilo set then supplement with black/white from caran’d ache. Depending on the prices!
I started with a set of Prismacolor Watercolor pencils that I got as a gift in Highschool that I had held onto & while the color was nice, I had such a hard time using the white - it just wasn't going on well. I wanted a higher end colored pencil so I went and got a white Derwent watercolor pencil and OMG it was like night & day. It was so creamy & pigmented. Definitely might invest in a set if I continue with my doll repaints.
I am watching a lot of your videos during the quarantine. This one was very informative. I just bought some Derwent Inktense!
from doll artist to pencil tester, way to go! :D
i have a box of LYRA watercolor pencils (a german brand). i bought the 12 pencils boxbecause at first i didn't want to pay for a bigger box, but now i regret a bit because, while they work pretty good, i lack of some basic colors. no purple, no pink, two shades of blue, brown and green. with that i use chalk pastels from Conté that i have for 20 years (i haven't used them anymore since i graduated from art school). they're fine for my level.
Wow, it's so neat to see the difference art supplies make for even such an experienced artist! They all look pretty, but the Derwent head looks so vibrant. I was going to order Faber Castell because I'd heard them mentioned a lot but I'm glad I researched first.
Thanks so much for this video, I'm just getting into doll customizing and this is SO HELPFUL, you have no idea! 😍💜
I own Derwent and was eyeing Faber Castell....(even had them in my cart on Amazon), I now think I'm going to mess with what I have first and go from there. Thank you for this video!! ❤
I missed watching your videos, your upbeat personality and positivity makes my day! This was very interesting even though I’m not an artist and not in the game of doll customization. I’m happy for you that you found better quality pencils and hopefully it will take less time to customize new dolls because of pencils’ performance and you’ll have some free time to relax!
Would be awesome if you made a “deet” doll from the dark crystal series on Netflix
I would also love to see this, as I have been attempting it with limited success!
K Shaw I think she would do a great job . I would love to see any of the characters to be honest. If she did it on a big head or one of the big dolls 😍
@@klou2901 It would be awesome to see her tackle the Skeksis!
K Shaw omg YES!!! love that idea completely 😁
yes!!
Incredibly useful video! Thank you for taking time for testing the pencils! I can definitely see buying the best black and white pencils to get the intense colours with minimal effort and perhaps buying one of the good but less expensive brands to save some money until you can afford the wooden box nirvana. I would also like to see this pencil test done on resin heads as many in the BJD faceup community would find it very helpful, myself included.
I enjoy watching comparison's. It helps me when trying to decide between buying products and figuring out which is better.
I wish I had watched this Video 2 days ago before I ordered Faber-Castell. I think I return them and order Derwent. 😄 thank you so much for testing all of the brands and for your afford ❤️
Thankyou poppen, I’ve always wondered about brands beside Derwent. Those are the easiest to get where I live, so it’s hard to find other brands that don’t cost the earth! I have always bought Derwent and luckily you can buy them single too. Please keep testing supplies. Your honesty is appreciated 😀
I love these kind of comparison videos especially when you did it on the dolls. The results were really informative.
This video is awesome and very helpful. It shows and give you many options to choose from when looking for pencils for doll customization. Thank you very much! This helps a lot.
SOOOO helpful! I've done some doll hair reroots and just purchased my first can of MSC. Was just starting the process of figuring out which pencils to try. Thanks. Love every video you do of course. Love YOU!
This is the first time I'm watching a 39 minute long youtube video. Thank you so much for the information! This helped me to understand how watercolour pencils work and what to choose! I think I'll go for Derwent after all
this was so helpful for someone who is stil new and not very good
im sure the right supplies would make a huge difference
and we got to see you make 4 beautiful dolls too
Yes, please!! Expand your art gallery!! I love your dolls but I want to see what else you can share with us 💖💖
Oh I didn't expect this kind of video but it was satisfying to watch. BTW I'm still waiting to get a Harley Quinn doll repaint and it would be exciting if you do one😍😍😍
This is AWESOME!!!
Would be great to see more videos comparing different brands and products.
It’s super helpful to know what the best products and options are.
So maybe a video on sealants, another one on hair, another one on glues, and one on clay/sculpting mediums, etc.
I found this test absolutely brilliant. It's really helped me. Thanks
Do pastels next! They are so hard to know which to get that work best.
I really liked this test! I had no idea how much difference it could make!
Thank you soooooo much for taking the time to do this. You're awesome! This video has been the most helpful video I've found.
Thank you SO much for doing this comparison!! I have been always wondering if I am using the best. Now I know I am not! Christmas list time !
This video is amazing! It also makes me really happy I went with Derwent watercolor pencils! They were on clearance when I got mine, so it wasn't too expensive and now seeing how they preform, I'm even happier!
Thank you thank you thank you!! Thank you for going through all those tests to find out the best brand of watercolor pencils, so we humble followers don't have to do it ourselves! I actually am about to start trying doll customization, and i didn't know what pencils to use. I heard that Derwent was good, didn't realise how good it was! Good thing i happen to already own a handful of Inktense! Thank you again! ^^
THANK YOU ALL THE OTHER DOLL CUSTOMIZERS ARE JUST INFECTED WITH RIDICULOUSNESS YOURE LIKE THE ONLY ON WHO MAKES SENSE
Hi Poppen, I just found this video. I am currently saving for art supplies. I'd rather save and invest in good quality equipment as I know it makes a world of difference and pretty much all the artists I've watched on You tube have said so as well.
Thank you SO MUCH for this comparison video. It has helped immensely. It is videos like these that are invaluable tools for anyone considering the hobby and current artists looking for a change in brand.
Very interesting comparison! I love your doll repaints and I think it would be a complimentary move to show other artistic endeavors as well. Thank you!
I do find these types of videos very helpful and very much appreciated. As this is not just strictly for doll artists but also for all artists who use watercolour pencils. So I am absolutely interested in seeing more of these videos in the future along with your doll repaints. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
So glad you posted this. I tried to do a repaint a year or so ago and bought the cheapest watercolor pencils and they didn't even transfer the color onto the doll. It's good to know you can buy derwent pencils individually. Maybe I'll start with a few pencils at a time
