    Hello friends!
    I can't believe I'm saying this but...I'm doing this again. Yep - one of the massive (100x75cm), color-tastic (275 colors!!) Josephine Wall kits from Diamond Painting Deutschland: this is "Spirit of Flight." And this time? I'm doubling down. Stay tuned for an unboxing of the DAC version of "Spirit of Flight" and, eventually, an ultimate comparison video of the two!

    I really like Josephine Wall's stuff. I have been watching how different companies choose to render her work and color definition. Diamond Painting Deutscheland was the first company I came across that had legally liscensed work from Mrs. Wall. They love to use lots of colors. I have this company as my "when you have leveled up in your skill and arent overwhelmed" ....one of these canvases will be what I gift myself. Normally I only go for poured glue but Id like to make an exception here.
    Im really impressed at the canvas quality. It looks like it didnt take that long to let the canvas relax naturally, which is a relief. Id be so worried about a break/tear in the double sided glue.

    • @sasakstn
      @sasakstn Рік тому +1

      For me, they always make it look like it's from a video game (looking like the game Unpacking or Stardew Valley). While this style fits some images, it doesn't really suite others. Soooo for the Jwalls I like the DPD actually more, because it reflects the "softness" of her artwork if you know what I mean :D

    What a gorgeous painting. I am sure many diamond painters will be on the DPDeutchsland website snapping up a picture. I love mine but now seem strangely tempted to buy another! I think my DP will take me more than 6 months as I am a full time teacher so don’t get loads of time to work on it. In fact I think I have a stash which will last 5 years! I’ll be looking at your post review of both long before so finish mine!

    @kris7865 3 роки тому +1

    I would love to do Melody in Pink, but it being DSA is keeping me from ordering. I even considered doing the HAED version as a blank canvas. That would be a huge undertaking. I think I might try the DPD version next year. Look forward to seeing the finished results of your experiment. It should be a fun one. I think it is going to come down to preferences. I personally prefer computer charting, because I want it to look more like the style of the original artwork. I find that hand charting can sometimes look cartoonish and like someone else's interpretation of the orginal artwork.

    • @DiamondsandWashi
      @DiamondsandWashi  3 роки тому

      I totally understand your hesitation about the DSA. I'm hoping that keeping it totally flat from here on out will take care of any potential issues.

    When I first saw you unbox "The Magical Merry-Go-Round" I was SO close to ordering a JW kit. This was one of my top 2 choices. I hesitated and ultimately decided to not order for 3 reasons.
    1. Space to kit up over 200 colors was prohibited for me.
    2. Double sided adhesive and my Texas climate are not friends and I would hate to do ALL that work and end up with quality issues. This is a piece that I would frame in my home forever.
    3. The watermark signature from JW in the bottom left of the canvas would have really upset me.
    When I saw the sneak peek from DAC on Friday...I literally gasped. I KNEW that I had to have it! The rendering on their side-by-side comparison was stunning. Plus I know that they ALWAYS look better completed that what is charted. I was lucky enough to order this one along with the Fox from Willowing Art. I am a paper crafter as well and love card making, watercoloring, Bible Journaling and mixed media art. I have taken a few classes from Tamara who is "Willowing Art" and we actually painted the fox in a class.
    I also KNEW that you would be "Miss Little FAST FINGERS" and order this one too. I CAN'T wait for you to work on both of these kits and give a side by side comparison! I am literally waiting with baited breath!
    Thanks for sharing your excitement with us!

      I'm sorry to hear that it wasn't really going to work out for you to order one of those JW kits, but I'm SO happy your were able to snag this one from DAC! I hope you really, really love it. And I love that you've gotten to take classes from "Willowing," that would be really, really neat!
      Have a wonderful week, friend 💛

      Valerie- I'm pretty new to diamond painting and live in a hot area of Colorado (Born in Texas & can't take the Texas out of this girl! 💗). I haven't done any double sided adhesives and have been a little worried about how it would hold up in the heat. Does it get runny or skate? Just curious. I appreciate any info you can give. Thanks so much!!

      @@broomrider2697 Hello. The first year of DPing I had only worked of double sided adhesive kits. I went overboard with my purchasing and quickly accumulated over 100 because they were cheap and took FOREVER to arrive. While waiting I purchased 2 kits at a local craft store. They we the Diamond Dotz brand which uses poured glue. There is a HUGE difference in quality. I have tried to work on the manu cheaper kits (on double sided adhesive) and it is almost painful to pull back the opaque cover and see (and deal with) rivers, puckers, poor quality diamonds, excessive adhesive (beyond the edge) and overall poor quality. There are too many wonderful companies now (there weren't when I started) offering outstanding quality kits. It is definitely worth my time and money on companies who offer the quality and who are above board with their ethics and legally license through the artists they partner with.

    Hats off to you for tackling another DPD canvas! I’m working on Starship right now (260 colors?) and I’m enjoying it much more than I thought I would. I keep the bottom half of mine rolled outwards while working on it and when I put it away. Are you in the DPD/Blum X FB group? I had asked if it was okay to keep it rolled and they said yes. I hope that not constantly rolling and unrolling the canvas will prevent any rivers or bubbles.
    I managed to get the DAC kit on Saturday, too. Can’t wait for your comparison!!

How long did it take to get it? (Never mind - should have watched to end before commenting). I am trying to decide if i want start or finish on my bday.
    As for your question, I am not sure I can do same painting twice. I have not seen one I love so much that I wouldn’t mind redoing so i will just watch you. It would be interesting to see how they compare! I will buy u coffee! 🤣

It's been 3 weeks for me and it still has not reached the U.S. I certainly wasn't expecting it to take less than a month, but when you said 5 days, I was shocked.

    I have a canvas of the exact same side as a double sided adhesive, can I ask how you did you sections ? I'm a little lost on how to section it because I don't want to damage it ... also do you think it would be okay if I took the paper completly off and replaces it with the plastic cover ?

    • @DiamondsandWashi
      @DiamondsandWashi  2 роки тому +1

      Hi there! I fold back the white cover along one of the grid lines, then use a ceramic pen cutter like this one dpwithsparklers.com/product/cutting-pen-with-ceramic-blade-pink/ to cut along the fold line, and then fold it back the other way to make another section. That shouldn't damage the canvas!
      However, I wouldn't replace the white paper with a plastic cover. I think the plastic cover would stick 😕 But! You could replace it with parchment paper instead. Just be aware that parchment paper is different from wax paper, and not interchangeable. Wax paper will stick to the adhesive.
      I hope that helps!

      @DiamondsandWashi  3 роки тому +1

      Hi Sheri! Ooh, Never Tickle a Sleeping Dragon is SUCH a pretty kit! Hmm, to be totally honest with you, I would be hesitant to roll DSA. Maybe once the drills are down, if you rolled it drills-facing-out and pushed away from you as you worked?
      Not to toot my own horn, but if you like, I actually put together a video with some tips on working on really large canvases (and used a DPD kit I was working on at the time as a demo!) and maybe it'll have some helpful ideas for you? Using a pool noodle on the end of your table is definitely something I'd look into. ua-cam.com/video/nVrftm7G_Mg/v-deo.html

    I wanted to try them but unfortunately even thought their FAQ says they ship to Canada, it's not an included country in their drop down country menu. I've e-mailed them a while ago about it but they haven't responded since so I've kind of given up.
    I find that the DAC versions are amazingly well done as I have done all 4 of the Zodiac paintings DAC released and even with only about 50+ drill colours, they all still really look amazing and does the painting justice, although I know the deutschland is probably more detailed in terms if fine details, but the overall image quality is amazing with DAC.
    With the knowledge that it's double-sided adhesive, the symbols are odd, and the drill field is a bit hard to read, and the lack of customer service I got, I think I'm going to stick with DAC. I'm glad to know that DAC is going to be finishing the Zodiac collection as well as release a few other JoWall paintings b/c it's mainly the Zodiac paintings I really covet as a fan of astrology.

      Either way, though, I don't blame you at all for wanting to stick with DAC. Especially since you love the Zodiac images! DAC should be getting all of them, I believe, so you'll have plenty of JoWall kits to work on for awhile
