This month I used @Jazza's #CustomizeItKit to create a few custom pieces. I did get frustrated and made some dud pieces, but I also had some success. Enjoy :D
Hi all 😀. I would like to clear a few things up as this video has had a few comments saying my review is unfair and I'm glad this has been highlighted as it was not my intention. FIRST, this was never intended to be a review, it was me unboxing and creating; that's what I do here on my channel. I chose this kit because it's customizing and I love to customize stuff. This kit is fun and inspires creativity, that's what drew me to it. SECOND, no, I didn't like everything in the kit, and I think that is fair as it's a little unrealistic to love everything. Plus, that's just my opinion. Everyone will have a different opinion about what is in the kit and that's fine. "Loving" everything that I pulled out would be super false. Using only what is in the kit is part of the challenge for me as it pushes me outside of my comfort zone and that's how I grow as a creator. THIRD, I didn't dis the kit, I only dissed my art and I do that a lot. I don't hide when things don't work properly for me as my viewers are awesome at letting me know what I can do next time to make it work which I love. FOURTH, when I have problems during my art process or failed pieces I don't hide it as I know my regular audience appreciates seeing that the creative process can be a struggle and doesn't always work out. I don't like to set unrealistic impressions on what art looks like. As art and crafters we all have failures and pieces we don't like, and that needs to be ok so we can learn and overcome. Finally, I'M NOT TOO OLD FOR THIS KIT! 🤣🤣 I'm not too old for anything,,, except maybe the splits,,, or sitting on the ground; both really hurt! I am a long time viewer and subscriber of Jazza's channel and I think he's a brilliant UA-cam creator and artist and I will continue to be entertained by his engaging content and exceptional creativity. I have purchased several Muse kits and I will continue to as I think they are a quality business. As for the paint markers, they were fine (again, only my opinion). Not my favourite, but I will be adding them to my collection and they will get used. Especially the neons! If I hate something, it goes in the bin. Nothing from this kit went in the bin. The items I wasn't digging, will get given to family/friends. I hope this clears a few things up. 😁😁
I get what you're saying. I still saw it as a review, but I liked that it was honest. Other than review vs. unboxing: I understood from the video every other point you made above.
Don't worry too much and thanks for being honest. If you use a kit made by a famous youtuber there will be hurt feelings for some viewers if you don't like everything. I think it's important to give honest opinions in Videos like this.
I really didn't feel this was unfair at any point? You used a product and shared your initial thoughts and opinions. You didn't bash jazza or his product. The way you approach new products/boxes/materials makes me trust and value your opinion more because you don't praise the product because a big UA-camr is behind it. You focus on your experience with it in a kind but honest way. What more do people want ?!😅
I think the issue is you have "it's aweful" in your thumb nail, that is giving the impression of it being a review and your opinion on it 💜 P.s. your flask and note book designs have inspired me to crack mine out and get customising 😊
As someone who follows @Jazza extensively, I was interested in this #CustomizeItKit. I was glad to see your results! My favorite item, like yours, was the sketchbook. The other customizables didn't appeal to me, so getting this particular kit didn't seem worth the money. The other demos I've seen were by people who I believe also gave *honest* reviews, but they're people Jazza has worked with before. I wasn't sure if they were able to be totally unbiased. Your review was especially good because we saw how it inspired you.
Thank you Rebekah. I agree with you, this kit is not for everyone but it's not a bad kit. And if I've been inspired or challenged, then that's all for the better as it helps us grow 😁😁
@@aussiecrafter, I'm glad what I meant was how you interpreted it: I'm not knocking the Jazza Studios line. I'm always a bit worried when I'm relaying in writing as opposed to speaking. I like some of Jazza's other kits, which were released and sold out before I started watching his channels. I've been excited for the Carry-All Studio bags even before Sarah reviewed them.
I ordered this kit because I love Jazza and I love Muse Kits. I wanted to love it so much, but just didn't. I wasn't really impressed with the items that came in the kit. It just kind of left me wanting more, for the price and for being a Jazza X Muse Kit, if that makes sense. Especially after seeing kits like the Not Another Crap Kit and Real Terrain Hobbies Kits (I have all of them!) This one just seemed lackluster. I think you did amazing with what you were given.
I appreciate your feedback as someone else who got the kit. I don't think it's a bad kit and I'm sure there are plenty out there who loved it, but it's certainly not the best kit for me either.
Thank you so much for taking the time and sharing your experience with the Customize-it Kit! Your artwork is so lovely. You have such a beautiful style and I am so happy that you found success with the notebook and got to try out some neon colors! Thank you for sharing your full creative process, especially the transferring tips, it is definitely challenging to start off with a completely blank canvas. We absolutely take your critiques to heart and we are always striving to improve. Our goal is to provide the best art kits possible for every level of artist and that is only possible through honest feedback.
Nice job on these! I personally liked the bottle, but we are our worst criticts. From experience, paint pens don't work on all things, especially some of the things in that craft kit, but trying is how we figure these things out, as you know. Well done! I would love to see the painting with every paint brush video some day 👀
I gave up on buying anything from Jazza a couple of years back when he kept hyping his new product & the awesome cost of it, only when I went to preorder it was twice as much; he was advertising it in USD & no disclaimers - anywhere, not even his website; I wrote a letter of complaint, listed the AU rules of advertising etc & his wife wrote back such a snarky reply that I just refused to buy anything else again, & I unsubscribed. I'm a Victorian too & I wanted to support someone local, but not at the expense of my belief that you have to do the right thing when you're advertising a high-end (even entry way) product. I own some of his products already, so I was extremely disappointed when all of this happened. I don't know if they're now advising people what currency he's advertising in, when he tells the audience how much, but I hope for transparency he his - he's selling to kids, whose parents can't always afford $200+ for a box.
Totally agree he became a sell out. Yes with his own boxes but still. There is also another UA-cam and SHES became the same. Money really does go to their heads and it made me loath some creators. I get maybe a good quality box ONCE or TWICE a year but its like every other month of not well enough thought threw items and supplies. I got nasty replies back also but from the female UA-camrs team. I was gutted. So yeah I always look for lagit testers and there HONESTY like here. Thus channel gained a sub today.
Aw, I'm sorry you had some frustrations with this kit. It's always a bummer when arts & crafts time doesn't go well (especially when you don't have much time for it). But, good news, you've got a fun new sketchbook for your favorite kind of art, and you could always redo the bottle if you wanted to =)
The cup is a great blast from the past for me. So it might not have been up to your expectations but I thoroughly enjoyed! Thanks for sharing. Also love your keychain
So the art items dont work well with the items in the box. Does not look great on Jazza end. You tried your best so imagine the disappointment someone with less skill will have with this box. A definite not recommend to me.
Yeah, it seems quite disappointing. Did they not even try the paint pens on the shrink plastic? For that amount of money, you'd be better off buying the paint pens and your own objects to customize.
I always look forward to your videos & your sharing your lastest creations! I appreciate your perservance & honesty, but I respectfully disagree at times of your critics. I am not an artist so don't see what something could be (I am a paper, glue gal) different or better. Thank you for always striving to improve & explore. Just want you to know how greatly I enjoy & many times I am in awe of what you create! 😊
I love your sketchbook. I really love how the neon pops without being overwhelmingly bright. I don't really like the yono paint markers myself so I knew I wasn't interested in this box despite loving the idea of it.
The color scheme for your little fuzzy dude reminds me of Sully from Monster's Inc with the purple and blue (though your colors are inverted from Sully's). Maybe you could use that idea to name him? Also, would love to see your experiment with all the different kinds of brushes! I know nothing about paint brushes so have no suggestions, but I do have a lot of cheerleading energy :)
You made such adorable items!! 🥰 I hope the bottle grows on you as you get farther from the struggle! 🤗 I love the sketchbook in the neon colors!! ❤ Paintbrush idea: Kristy Rice(one of the UA-camrs that Sarah Renee Clark learned from. She does watercolors) has two sets of brushes. She loves dagger brushes, and that set also included a cat's tongue brush. I've never heard of them before, but I've not created with paint- yet.
Thanks 😁I have a set of Kristy's with those brushes in. It was the first I'd ever seen them too, and I'm still learning to use them to their full potential.
@aussiecrafter You're very welcome!! 🤗😍 I'm glad you have those!! 🥰 I wonder how unique the other set is? I hope you have Moriah Elizabeth's and Chloe Rose's art sets as well! 🌸 Then you could try UA-camrs art sets. Might help with views?
I love these! The bottle, more for the nostalgia vibes, the sketchbook looked fab & the shrink plastic critter, he looks like a Syd, LOL (species-wise; Moot, Dots, Zorbs) - I now need to see if I still have some shrink plastic kicking about. Aaahh, so happy you got the builders kit \o/ (will be starting mine as soon as I've finished with Jackie's newest one) 💙
I’ve ordered pretty much everything that Jazza came up with since I started following his channel, but I really wasn’t excited about this one because the items in there were not that exciting to me. It’s definitely more geared towards kids - like the pencil case, sunglasses, and skateboards. It didn’t feel that worth it to me… Of course I also already have a ton of poscas so I didn’t need the kit either. I do love how your water bottle turned out though, it’s adorable! And the sketchbook too… It looks great and very ‘you’! The neon colors fit right in. Aw sorry the shrink wrap didn’t turn out well. I tried shrink film before with shrink film I got from daiso and used permanent markers on it and it turned out great! The colors were translucent and added to the stain glass vibe. I used an oven as well and it did wrap a bit while baking but once it came out and was flat it straightened out. I think I tried it again and used a heat gun for the shrinking the second time around.
I totally relate to what you said about loving your art in sketch form and that how it's when you add colour your start to hate it... So I just work in monotone very rare I'll do colour like in my profile picture 😅 I'd love to work with colour and artists like you and Jess Karp get me itching try so keep up the good work your INSPIRING and GIVING CONFIDENCE that's incredible!!! ❤
Good work Di! (hope I spelt your name right) I have suggestions on paint brushes! Fan brush, mop, ridiculously small detail brushes and ridiculously large paint brushes (like for walls).
Great job. You could paint gesso all over the cup and do again if you really didnt like it. I think you do a great job. I have been procrastinating on my Customize it box....
I think its fine to mix supplies from the kit and your own stash to make something, unless you are specifically 'reviewing' an art supply, then it helps us more if you stick to that
I almost bought this kit since it was on sale and I really wanted to try out thr paint pens. I realise I only really cared for the paint pens, and could buy the other stuff if I did want those to customise.
I also have no "proper" paint brush knowledge so I would very much love to see you explore all the shapes and styles out there. Sorry it means you'll have to go shopping! I didn't think any of the things you made were bad. It seems like most of your problems were 'technical' ones rather than not liking the art itself. I know that it can be really hard to be satisfied with something when it doesn't quite match what you saw in your mind. That is where we viewers have the advantage because we had no particular expectation. I particularly liked the drawing you did on the sketch book. It reminded me of the cute sculpted collection of art supplies you made for your back drop. For the things that needed to be varnished, if brushed on doesn't always play nice with paint pens, maybe a spray sealant or varnish would work better? I know that wasn't supplied with the kit but might be an idea if you do decide to use any of the other stuff.
The Shrink plastic needed to be sanded first to grip the paint, it should really have been in the instructions. Perhaps a mix of sharpies and paint pens would have been a better choice of medium for the box. I loved your sketchbook design though and your little Fluff monster.
You're persevere better than me. If I don't like something I'm doing, I can't see the point in wasting more time on it, so it gets kicked to the curb. You have way more imagination than me, as well. Your character thingy... Moogies? Moodees? Furfees?
I definitely don't hate it. I love what you've drawn. It looks like it was fun. I feel like the common demoninator are those crappy paint pens. I have a hard time trusting others idea of quality. Hey, it's not their money your spending.
Chloe rose has paint brushes Also certain brushes are better for certain paints like watercolors. I love the design and it would be better to have a finer detail brush included. Using the kit is a base idea but usually always need a little extra like you don't always have everything you need in a kit despite what nerdecrafter says (hers did include everything except water and paper towels the average everyday stuff around the home) I'd love to see that idea come to fruition of testing different paint brushes and then other oddities like a toothbrush for instance. It be interesting to watch PS i did notice the best friend necklace font is missing oops but still cool. Maybe can add then varnish again
Nice video like always, I definitely liked the water bottle. The werdiest paint brush I know of is the "fan brush." I would love for you to draw on your ipad a collection of all your mushroom characters in one drawing. If you can though it's up to you 💜
@olasharshar9025, @Fiona-Art from Slovenia has sometimes used fan brushes to add trees when embellishing her abstract fluid art. I actually bought one of those paintings from her.
Puggles are out, can you remember the toys and books? Mind you we also refer to platypus and echindna young as puggles although I think that's not what they are scientifically. Good review and unbiased.
10:58 if you rub over the surface with a fine grit sandpaper on one side the markers will work a lot better. I’m disappointed that wasn’t in the instructions. Or there is shrink plastic you can buy that is already scuffed up on one side.
Also even when using posca, I found that the paint cracked a little though didn’t do that powdery thing. I also used the scuffed up type so that could be why. I found coloured pencils to work the best. Maybe a lower oven temp would have helped with the warping and folding over?
what about fuzzies or huggies since it look fuzzy and huggable. Then there is blobbies or wiggles bc they look like they would wiggle while walking. Idk they are just some silly cute options.
Whoa, the shrink film is a fail, and thats not on your side, they just dont work together (markers and shrink plastic) The sketchbook looks awesome 👌 sadly you had to learn about the art materials with the cup but i like the idea of the design. The kit feels like "a good idea executed poorly", i feel there could have been a little bit more thought on what to put in, and more testing
The items included to customize felt a lot like it was aimed squarely at a 12-13 year old boy, tbh. Which is fine but certainly doesn’t sell it for me.
My problem with the kit is, it doesn't feel like a typical jazza thing, it ain't jazza themed, the items target young teens or old children, but the price is definitely not children friendly (115USD plus 10-15 USD for shipping) I usually like Jazzas kits, but this one feels poorly executed and a bit like a cashgrab
I love the respectful opinion I just think people are upset because of the thumbnail its harsh the choice of words do have an effect. I think you shoudve put neeeds some work or my opinion on the kit because to me I would cry if someone said my kit was awful I prefer needing work or problems with the kit. I do think the acrylic pens need work or a sperate set for the keychain thing and for the cup. I also clicked on the video because of the thumbnail anr I do think you should only use whats in the kit fully so no feeedback of that❤😊
I do agree the thumbnail is not clear, as I put the yellow arrow pointing to the cup I made but it might not be what people's eyes look at. I will look at changing it up. I appreciate the feedback 😊
I though abort gettimg the Box, but im SO glad i Saw Your video, cause if the items dont fit each other, Then its not the there my money Will be used. Im not god at art. 😅 i loooove Your small figur, its so sweet looking. Jazza should Try hes art workshop things before putting it for sale. The problem with Jazza is, he is now so Big a deal, that he Wont have problems with one bad produkt, he Will just make a new, and Then its fint for ham, nevermind peopel spend money on a bad produkt.
Hmmm name suggestions for the little cuteypie creature… Glurbles, Snugglers, Grots…ummm Drutters, Feeloos, Trisps, Trooloos. What ever you end up calling them they are adorable little things!
A always enjoy you & your videos very much. I love your work , but … first name suggestions I thought of were “Virus monster”, “The Rona” & “Cootie boy. If you remake them, maybe switch up little filler doodles on side? Damn girl, PLEASE forgive me 🙏🏻❤️ lol. Blame it on being bombarded with germ symbols on so many ads 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ Again, LOVE you and LOVE your work!!!
I decided to skip this kit, despite really loving what Jazza puts out there. I already have all the paint pens, and none of the items really spoke to me. BUT I sent one to my teenage nephews and they loved it. So maybe 'young boy' is the right demographic for the items in there.
You did amazing work and amazing art butttt to be honest the kits and the art supplies this time are not good sorry to say this but jazza this time did not do great
Ok I get this is a more “overall custom kit” but….id really like it if we had at least some small paints to custom with not some pens, as pens are pretty restricting, you can’t mix pens ofc. This one’s a huge sin in my book, No primer and the sealer is shit? Like if your kit is smudgable pens why the fuck didn’t you get a sealer than DOESNT react to the paint material? The mini boards, cases, and sunglasses are gonna wear so fast because of it. There really should have been some pointer brushes, as these can be used to apply lineart much easier than the pens. The pens really should be non streaky on the first swatch, your suppose to have one smooth line as precision is the whole point of the pens not paints. The items you custom feel…..cheap….the sketchbook is genius, the skateboard and sunglasses feel and look cheap, most all of the items feel like box fillers, I’d prefer jazza just chose more materials to custom (like those brushes I mentioned) than adding all these cheap bonus items. ….would it have been too hard to add a small fabric pencil case or hell PLASTIC TO GO WITH THE CUSTOM THEME, for all your paint pens? Who wants to lug the whole custom box as the whole point of a customing kit is you can custom on the go, not just your room. Your rlly not suppose to use paint pens/acrylic on shrink pieces, it just flakes and isn’t waterproof anymore Sorry this is a lot of criticism but this is suppose to be an custom kit but it feels very “oh it’s just a paint pen kit”
I say this as someone who does a lot of custom work btw, I do garage kits model kits and other custom stuff, a kit like this would have been nutty for me just starting if it was done right
As an honest review you walked into this knowing you had no interest in most of the elements, thats on you. Those kits list what is in them. So picking a kit obviously meant for a tween and then being surprised you hate stuff isn't imo an honest review. Also limiting yourself to whats only in the box again on you. Show us what you could have done with different elements. You were excited about the cup and the wooden eyeglass case. Redo the cup. Mistakes were made but that doesn't mean you can't start over. Use the colors you wanted to use. Is it the materials or is it you. Someone else mentioned kits are a base. Yes thats the idea. Use it to build on!
I think if it targets children and teens, it shouldn't cost that much, 115USD plus shipping is a lot. I wish Jazza would also do kits that are more affordable for beginners and young people.

So the art items dont work well with the items in the box. Does not look great on Jazza end. You tried your best so imagine the disappointment someone with less skill will have with this box. A definite not recommend to me.
Yeah, it seems quite disappointing. Did they not even try the paint pens on the shrink plastic?

The neon looks great on the white sketch book!
I love your sketchbook. I really love how the neon pops without being overwhelmingly bright.
I don't really like the yono paint markers myself so I knew I wasn't interested in this box despite loving the idea of it.
Thanks. I'd never heard of Yono. I don't hate them, but they are not my favourite either.
I loved the design on the cup! Reminds me so much of my childhood! Love it!!!
The color scheme for your little fuzzy dude reminds me of Sully from Monster's Inc with the purple and blue (though your colors are inverted from Sully's). Maybe you could use that idea to name him?
Also, would love to see your experiment with all the different kinds of brushes! I know nothing about paint brushes so have no suggestions, but I do have a lot of cheerleading energy :)
Thanks Alyssa. I will feel your cheerleading energy from here 😁😁
These all turned out gorgeous !! I loved them all !! Thanks !! 😀
I would love your little creature as an acrylic keychain! He’s so cute
You made such adorable items!! 🥰 I hope the bottle grows on you as you get farther from the struggle! 🤗 I love the sketchbook in the neon colors!! ❤ Paintbrush idea: Kristy Rice(one of the UA-camrs that Sarah Renee Clark learned from.

@aussiecrafter You're very welcome!! 🤗😍 I'm glad you have those!! 🥰 I wonder how unique the other set is? I hope you have Moriah Elizabeth's and Chloe Rose's art sets as well! 🌸 Then you could try UA-camrs art sets. Might help with views?
I love these! The bottle, more for the nostalgia vibes, the sketchbook looked fab & the shrink plastic critter, he looks like a Syd, LOL (species-wise; Moot, Dots, Zorbs) - I now need to see if I still have some shrink plastic kicking about.
Aaahh, so happy you got the builders kit \o/ (will be starting mine as soon as I've finished with Jackie's newest one) 💙
Maybe the three of us should do a collab on the Builders kit I have one as well
@@DingoPaints That could be fun!
What a fun video, I really enjoyed your voiceover and personality. I love seeing the creation process!
Thank you so much 😊
I’ve ordered pretty much everything that Jazza came up with since I started following his channel, but I really wasn’t excited about this one because the items in there were not that exciting to me. It’s definitely more geared towards kids - like the pencil case, sunglasses, and skateboards. It didn’t feel that worth it to me… Of course I also already have a ton of poscas so I didn’t need the kit either.
I do love how your water bottle turned out though, it’s adorable! And the sketchbook too… It looks great and very ‘you’! The neon colors fit right in. Aw sorry the shrink wrap didn’t turn out well. I tried shrink film before with shrink film I got from daiso and used permanent markers on it and it turned out great! The colors were translucent and added to the stain glass vibe. I used an oven as well and it did wrap a bit while baking but once it came out and was flat it straightened out. I think I tried it again and used a heat gun for the shrinking the second time around.
I totally relate to what you said about loving your art in sketch form and that how it's when you add colour your start to hate it... So I just work in monotone very rare I'll do colour like in my profile picture 😅 I'd love to work with colour and artists like you and Jess Karp get me itching try so keep up the good work your INSPIRING and GIVING CONFIDENCE that's incredible!!! ❤
Good work Di! (hope I spelt your name right) I have suggestions on paint brushes! Fan brush, mop, ridiculously small detail brushes and ridiculously large paint brushes (like for walls).
You did an amazing job=3 I like all the items=3 Thank you for the inspiration! Have a nice week=3
Yay!! Love when you post!!!
this is brilliant, you did a fantastic job ☺☺☺
Great job. You could paint gesso all over the cup and do again if you really didnt like it.
I think you do a great job.
I have been procrastinating on my Customize it box....
I like the little pom pom character you made and the book
I think its fine to mix supplies from the kit and your own stash to make something, unless you are specifically 'reviewing' an art supply, then it helps us more if you stick to that
I almost bought this kit since it was on sale and I really wanted to try out thr paint pens. I realise I only really cared for the paint pens, and could buy the other stuff if I did want those to customise.
I also have no "proper" paint brush knowledge so I would very much love to see you explore all the shapes and styles out there. Sorry it means you'll have to go shopping!
I didn't think any of the things you made were bad. It seems like most of your problems were 'technical' ones rather than not liking the art itself. I know that it can be really hard to be satisfied with something when it doesn't quite match what you saw in your mind. That is where we viewers have the advantage because we had no particular expectation. I particularly liked the drawing you did on the sketch book. It reminded me of the cute sculpted collection of art supplies you made for your back drop.
For the things that needed to be varnished, if brushed on doesn't always play nice with paint pens, maybe a spray sealant or varnish would work better? I know that wasn't supplied with the kit but might be an idea if you do decide to use any of the other stuff.
Thank you for the tip. I think I need to invest in that spray.
Oh I can’t wait to see the next kit!
The Shrink plastic needed to be sanded first to grip the paint, it should really have been in the instructions. Perhaps a mix of sharpies and paint pens would have been a better choice of medium for the box. I loved your sketchbook design though and your little Fluff monster.
Yes sanding is crucial and I always paint after shrinking. Also when the item curls one can usually fix that by reheating.
Excited about the teaser!!! 😊😊
Thanks for sharing. ❤
Ooo cant wait to see the real terrain one!
You're persevere better than me. If I don't like something I'm doing, I can't see the point in wasting more time on it, so it gets kicked to the curb. You have way more imagination than me, as well. Your character thingy... Moogies? Moodees? Furfees?
Thanks 😊 Moogies is cute.
Pronunciation of the 'oo' as in moo, or as in look?
Yup. Moo as in moo cow. 😄@@aussiecrafter
This was fun! So sorry it didn't work out well on the shrink plastic 😢 the designs are super cute!!!
Thanks Melinda 😊😊
I definitely don't hate it. I love what you've drawn. It looks like it was fun. I feel like the common demoninator are those crappy paint pens. I have a hard time trusting others idea of quality. Hey, it's not their money your spending.
Chloe rose has paint brushes
Also certain brushes are better for certain paints like watercolors.
I love the design and it would be better to have a finer detail brush included.
Using the kit is a base idea but usually always need a little extra like you don't always have everything you need in a kit despite what nerdecrafter says (hers did include everything except water and paper towels the average everyday stuff around the home)
I'd love to see that idea come to fruition of testing different paint brushes and then other oddities like a toothbrush for instance. It be interesting to watch
PS i did notice the best friend necklace font is missing oops but still cool. Maybe can add then varnish again
Nice video like always, I definitely liked the water bottle. The werdiest paint brush I know of is the "fan brush." I would love for you to draw on your ipad a collection of all your mushroom characters in one drawing. If you can though it's up to you
💜
I would love to get all my characters into one painting,,, one day 😁😁
@olasharshar9025, @Fiona-Art from Slovenia has sometimes used fan brushes to add trees when embellishing her abstract fluid art. I actually bought one of those paintings from her.
@RebekahSue really that's new to me I've never seen anyone use it but I've seen it instores
Not a box id want and would be upset at the custome items you can paint. The variety seems cheap. You made some cute art though😊
re transfer on the thermo cup, have you ever tried acetone transfer? so quick and easy and doesn't smear as much as pencil on plastic
Puggles are out, can you remember the toys and books? Mind you we also refer to platypus and echindna young as puggles although I think that's not what they are scientifically.
Good review and unbiased.
You're right, I forgot that's what we call baby echidna and platypus 🤦♀️ I can't remember the toys though.
10:58 if you rub over the surface with a fine grit sandpaper on one side the markers will work a lot better. I’m disappointed that wasn’t in the instructions. Or there is shrink plastic you can buy that is already scuffed up on one side.
Also even when using posca, I found that the paint cracked a little though didn’t do that powdery thing. I also used the scuffed up type so that could be why. I found coloured pencils to work the best. Maybe a lower oven temp would have helped with the warping and folding over?
Thank you for the tips, I appreciate it :)
what about fuzzies or huggies since it look fuzzy and huggable. Then there is blobbies or wiggles bc they look like they would wiggle while walking. Idk they are just some silly cute options.
Whoa, the shrink film is a fail, and thats not on your side, they just dont work together (markers and shrink plastic)
The sketchbook looks awesome 👌 sadly you had to learn about the art materials with the cup but i like the idea of the design.
The kit feels like "a good idea executed poorly", i feel there could have been a little bit more thought on what to put in, and more testing
The items included to customize felt a lot like it was aimed squarely at a 12-13 year old boy, tbh. Which is fine but certainly doesn’t sell it for me.
Yes! Like a 10 year old boy
My problem with the kit is, it doesn't feel like a typical jazza thing, it ain't jazza themed, the items target young teens or old children, but the price is definitely not children friendly (115USD plus 10-15 USD for shipping)
I usually like Jazzas kits, but this one feels poorly executed and a bit like a cashgrab
A name suggestion is the Fuzzy's. 😊
I love the respectful opinion I just think people are upset because of the thumbnail its harsh the choice of words do have an effect. I think you shoudve put neeeds some work or my opinion on the kit because to me I would cry if someone said my kit was awful I prefer needing work or problems with the kit. I do think the acrylic pens need work or a sperate set for the keychain thing and for the cup. I also clicked on the video because of the thumbnail anr I do think you should only use whats in the kit fully so no feeedback of that❤😊
I do agree the thumbnail is not clear, as I put the yellow arrow pointing to the cup I made but it might not be what people's eyes look at. I will look at changing it up. I appreciate the feedback 😊
some people put UV Resin on the shrink wrap to last longer better finish
That's a great idea, thanks 😊
ALL the brushes? I'd contribute to that if you want to do a crowd funding or just by myself a little contribution
Oo is that a Diorama muse kit? I’d love to try one.
It is 🤗
I though abort gettimg the Box, but im SO glad i Saw Your video, cause if the items dont fit each other, Then its not the there my money Will be used. Im not god at art. 😅 i loooove Your small figur, its so sweet looking. Jazza should Try hes art workshop things before putting it for sale. The problem with Jazza is, he is now so Big a deal, that he Wont have problems with one bad produkt, he Will just make a new, and Then its fint for ham, nevermind peopel spend money on a bad produkt.
Hmmm name suggestions for the little cuteypie creature… Glurbles, Snugglers, Grots…ummm Drutters, Feeloos, Trisps, Trooloos. What ever you end up calling them they are adorable little things!
Thank you, so many good suggestions 😊 ☺️
Oh no I have to go to the craft store! 😂
😉
3rd! Never been this early before!!🎉🎉
I was quite susprised with your intial reactions i am use to people being nicer when it comes to youtubers
A always enjoy you & your videos very much. I love your work , but … first name suggestions I thought of were “Virus monster”, “The Rona” & “Cootie boy. If you remake them, maybe switch up little filler doodles on side? Damn girl, PLEASE forgive me 🙏🏻❤️ lol. Blame it on being bombarded with germ symbols on so many ads 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ Again, LOVE you and LOVE your work!!!
Paint pens in general are a hard sell, I have poscas and never use them I let my kids use them bc I hate them so much
Looking at your face. You were already expecting it to be poor quality.
It's just a box with some paint markers and some blank objects lol. I'd rather he release another art box with markers and colored pencils.
That's not ok people asked for the kit 😕
@@DreamiMusho What's not ok? I just want him to release another art box with markers and colored pencils.
The items seem to target young teenagers, yet the box costs 115USD plus shipping. That doesn't match too well imo. Way too pricey for a teen.
I decided to skip this kit, despite really loving what Jazza puts out there. I already have all the paint pens, and none of the items really spoke to me. BUT I sent one to my teenage nephews and they loved it. So maybe 'young boy' is the right demographic for the items in there.
I think you might be right ✅️
You did amazing work and amazing art butttt to be honest the kits and the art supplies this time are not good sorry to say this but jazza this time did not do great
Ok I get this is a more “overall custom kit” but….id really like it if we had at least some small paints to custom with not some pens, as pens are pretty restricting, you can’t mix pens ofc.
This one’s a huge sin in my book, No primer and the sealer is shit? Like if your kit is smudgable pens why the fuck didn’t you get a sealer than DOESNT react to the paint material? The mini boards, cases, and sunglasses are gonna wear so fast because of it.
There really should have been some pointer brushes, as these can be used to apply lineart much easier than the pens.
The pens really should be non streaky on the first swatch, your suppose to have one smooth line as precision is the whole point of the pens not paints.
The items you custom feel…..cheap….the sketchbook is genius, the skateboard and sunglasses feel and look cheap, most all of the items feel like box fillers, I’d prefer jazza just chose more materials to custom (like those brushes I mentioned) than adding all these cheap bonus items.
….would it have been too hard to add a small fabric pencil case or hell PLASTIC TO GO WITH THE CUSTOM THEME, for all your paint pens? Who wants to lug the whole custom box as the whole point of a customing kit is you can custom on the go, not just your room.
Your rlly not suppose to use paint pens/acrylic on shrink pieces, it just flakes and isn’t waterproof anymore
Sorry this is a lot of criticism but this is suppose to be an custom kit but it feels very “oh it’s just a paint pen kit”
I say this as someone who does a lot of custom work btw, I do garage kits model kits and other custom stuff, a kit like this would have been nutty for me just starting if it was done right
As an honest review you walked into this knowing you had no interest in most of the elements, thats on you. Those kits list what is in them. So picking a kit obviously meant for a tween and then being surprised you hate stuff isn't imo an honest review. Also limiting yourself to whats only in the box again on you. Show us what you could have done with different elements. You were excited about the cup and the wooden eyeglass case. Redo the cup. Mistakes were made but that doesn't mean you can't start over. Use the colors you wanted to use. Is it the materials or is it you. Someone else mentioned kits are a base. Yes thats the idea. Use it to build on!
I think if it targets children and teens, it shouldn't cost that much, 115USD plus shipping is a lot. I wish Jazza would also do kits that are more affordable for beginners and young people.
