Thanks Marty. My daughter will be working on a portfolio in her high school art class and we are gathering a few watercolor supplies. I knew I could count on your guidance! These will work great for her and not break the budget! Our family really appreciates your videos! Thanks again!
+Denise Chapel Thank you very much Denise. Glad to hear they're helping. These and the Mondeluz are really my biggest surprises in the past 6 months when it comes to watercolor pencils. These are affordable and the quality seems great. Hope you have an AWEOME day! - Marty
Thanks for reviewing these! I'm glad you liked them and that you didn't waste your money, so to speak. I love my set as well and was surprised about the color vibrancy. Since these aren't the most expensive or higher end pencils, I didn't expect them to deliver so well.
I think for mid-range pencils, these might be the best ones I've tried. I bought mine used and they're "old" so to speak, but they've not lost any in quality.
As someone else suggested, would love to see you working with watercolor pencils, any really!
+ohm Thank you and these were really fun to try out. These really do surpass expectations! - Marty
Thank for your review, the video is very high quality and detail than many before and music made me remember about coloring book color clips around youtube, combine of all is very interesting ! I love to see your rating in more clips, that made us a great reference when choose a branch to go.
+Hân Nguyễn Thank you Han. I appreciate the feedback. Have a great day! - Marty
I really enjoy your videos, because you have a simple, yet effective way of reviewing art supplies (and quite objective since it is your money).
Have you ever thought of reviewing 'Sanguine/Sepia' pencils ? (lyra, Cretacolor, Conte a Paris, Koh-I-Noor, Faber Castell). Also, mentioning the differences between sanguine & colored pencils (chemical composition, ingredients etc) would be nice too.
Thanks Owings & keep it up!
+Alexandros Makris Hi Alexandros - Great ideas. I think you just added another item to my list. I use Sanguine/Sepia, but never reviewed them alone. Thank you! - Marty
Wow I just realized how old this video is, thank you! I got my 72 pack yesterday and wasn't really sure how to use watercolor pencils, and I wanted to know if they were good. Thank you for this!
You are so welcome!
Great video! Thank you so much for the ranking at the end. I purchased the Caran d'asch set and am loving the quality so much. You are spot on as I knew you'd be. Best regards from Michigan.
Your reviews are so thorough, Thankyou.
+O2BSoLucky Thank you! Have a great day! - Marty
Great! Pencils are not cheap so I want to take good care of mine. Thanks for the help!
Very nicely explained in terms of value of money vs quality colours.
thank you so much
Another great review! 👍 Lots of great information!
+Art Class Thanks for watching! - Marty
I have been thinking of purchasing these watercolor pencils. I really like the Lyra pens/markers I have tried so far. They seem to be a very good brand. Thanks for the review Marty. :)
+Shannon Sand For sure Shannon. These are pretty good. I think like other German products, they tend to invest a little more in the quality. - Marty
True, I was thinking these might be good for adult coloring books. I like the vibrancy you got in the colors.
Shannon Sand Yeah, these would be good. - Marty
I may have to try these
They may not have dissolved the best but those colours look gorgeous. Also, I like how they don't have a chalky feel to them. The normal polycolors are also very good. Thanks for the review Marty, really handy!
Thank you for the kind remarks. And I agree. These are really a decent value if you consider comparable wc pencils.
I think I've got every colour in this set... I'm not sure. But I've got one of those wooden multi-shelved boxes, so it seems about right if there are only 70 something pencils in the set. It was inherited from my dad, and they're still going so I would definitely recommend them.
I can't say much about how well they work with water from personal experience but I do know they work really well just as pencils.
I mostly watched this video just to see what someone else said about them.
Hi Luna - Thanks for checking out the video and your Dad has great taste. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. ~Marty
Thank you for the review!
+Galina V. Sure! Thank you for taking the time to thank me. - Marty
Wow great results for 20+$ pencils!
:-) Not too bad.
I´m pretty happy with this test, Marty. They seems to be really excellent! Loved the review! :)
+Cris Costa These are really nice paints Cris. :-) Hope you are having a great, great week. - Marty
:)
I think they are connected to the sportswear brand. they are the parent company of giotto art supplies and daler rowney too.
Great Review! Answered all of my questions and will now buy some for my significant other...
Cheers,
+floppychicken68 Happy it helped. - Marty
thank you
I just got myself 2 sets (Koh i noor Mondeluz 36 for around 20 euros and one by Faber Castell Albrecht Dürer 24 for around 30euros). The reds have a great pigmentation for the czech pencils. Faber Castell I havent tried out yet, they look sooo good...i need to get better paper...
Very nice!
Hi Marty, did you use another camera? The video quality is amazing, a crystal clear picture! I also enjoyed the more detailed review and the picture in picture feature.
Regarding the pencils i'm a bit surprised. You rated them better than i would have expected! I only tested one Lyra Aquarelle pencil, a dark red, and i was a bit disappointed because the pigment didn't dissolve that well. Now that i have watched your video i recognize that the colours are pretty intense though and in your drawing demonstration they look fantastic. There don't seem to be any streaks.
The 'regular' Lyra Polycolor pencils are among my favourite pencils. Maybe i will give the watercolour pencils another try...
+Anja Meurer Hi Anja - I agree with you about the pigment dissolving, so I only gave it a 6.5 on that. It's not that they're bad art dissolving, just not as good Faber-Castell or Caran d'Ache. Other areas were very good though and so overall, I was impressed by these. The camera's are the same, so I really think it is UA-cam and the end-users bandwidth that really determines quality. Also in the lower right hand corner you can set it to higher resolution. I film everything in HD at 1080p so it should be crystal clear. :-) I received your email. Thank you and I will respond quickly. Have a great evening! -Marty
Hey Marty! Thanks for the review video as usual. I was wondering, will you be doing an illustration using mostly Watersoluble pencils? It would be excellent to watch you use some of the the penciled you have gathered.
+My Panda Paints That sounds like a great idea. I'll try to get to it soon. Thank you as always!!! - Marty
Very great video! Even though quite some time has passed now, I wanted to try to ask you an opinion on which one you found "better" between Staedtler's Ergosoft and Lyra Rembrandt. In the video it seems to me that the colour are quite similar in vibrance, but the ergosoft dissolve slightly better, is it true? And what about lightfastness and hardness of the lead?
The thing is, I've got a set of twelve Ergosoft that introduced me to the joys of watercolour pencils, but all the pencils are worn out now, so I wanted to buy a new set of 24 or 36 colours. I enjoyed the ergosoft very much, but I wanted to try something of a little better quality, so I was thinking about trying the Lyra out. I use the pencils in combination with watercolour, so for what I do, I like very vibrant colours and a very soft lead. My dream would actually be a Caran d'Ache Supracolor Soft set, but they are very expensive...!
I have these
excelente video! gracias por la información. Martí!
Thank you Mariaraquel.
Si tengo los Policromos en lápiz. Pero quería preguntarte en lápiz acuarelables cuáles eran los mejores en cuanto a pigmentos y luz. En acuarelas tipi pastillas estoy entre Winsor and Newton o Van ghot. Vi las Kuretake y los colores son excelentes. Podrías recomendarme alguna de ellas? Saludos Martín!
Thanks for sharing lots of informations 😃
+王譽儒 You are welcome. - Marty
Dang it my brother, why you gotta upload so late? I got school in the morning. ;D
Nice review like always and can't wait for the giveaway contest!
+SuperFlawless9 Ha! I know it man, but all the new editing and changes make posting take longer. I could go LoFi, but then people complain. :-) Word.
love this video Marty im looking at new art supplies i think im going with inktense by derwent and maybe the remebrant polycolors also could you do a review on the Spectrum aqua markers?
+Robert King Hi Robert - The Spectrums are on my list already, I just have to get to them. I'd recommend exploring other water soluble pencils, depending on what you're going to use them for. The Derwent Inktense are NOT lightfast for the most part. You can test them yourself, but I've been testing them for the last few years and they fade quickly in the light. For sketchbooks though, they work fine. - Marty
Thanks marty! for the input!
Robert King Absolutely. Thank you for the question and comments.
+Owings Art youre welcome Marty :)
have you ever tried the lyra's polycolor
+Nanez ferrer Hi Nanez - Thanks for note. Yes and I've reviewed them on the channel, here: ua-cam.com/video/i2QX7Qhnstc/v-deo.html
have you reviewed the Lyra duo brush pens - watercolour?
Interested in knowing your thoughts, especially compared to Tombow.
thanks
Thx for showing about this pencils.
I have a question :
Csn you make a review about aquarell colour set of 12 from Giotto Stilnovo? Bye
I haven't found them?
@@owingsart,
You can find them on Amazon. They are an Italian brand. Greeting from Germany 🙋♀️
Marty, how does this Lyra aquarell compare with Koh-i-noor mondeluz? which one would you prefer?
I like the Mondeluz a bit better. It's colors are more vibrant and lightfast.
Great video. What is your favorite sharpener and where do you get it? I'm just getting started in pencils, I have Inktense pencils and I am afraid to sharpen them because I don't want to waste any
+REBECCA SHARP Hi Rebecca - I use two types of hand sharpeners the most. Both are German. I use the Alvin DUX inkwell sharpener. And the M&R sharpener. Here is a link to my video on them: ua-cam.com/video/MuSI3a4Sgb0/v-deo.html
+Owings Art - Awesome! I just found you from watching Lindsey "The Frugal Crafter". I love color pencils- never thought of using them- they are so much fun!
REBECCA SHARP Thank you!
hi MaRty Nice pencils I have Lyra s Watercolor Crayons and Love them Im sure i would love these too. But after a vaction i am on a spending freeze :} Shannon
+Art Junkie Hi Shannon - Thanks for the note. Where'd you go on vacation? - Marty
Rivera Maya Mexico Barcelo Resort AWESOME
+Art Junkie Sounds....warm and nice. Lucky! I'll have to try the crayons sometime, you're the second person to mention them. - Marty
they are highly pigmented. smooth and creamy and fun
Lightfastness TBD???
And that is?
They are okay.
thank you Marty :) I have never heard of this brand, before today :) where did you get that Mobius sharpener? I can only find the one with one hole in it hmm, thank you :)
+Rhonda Magee Hi Rhonda - Here is a link to the Mobius sharpener I use: amzn.to/1SAsgGa
well, thank you Marty :)
Rhonda Magee Surely!
:)
Hi Marty! Great review as always! Would you recommend these over the Koh i noor Mondeluz which you have also reviewed? I am kind of debating which to get between the two. Thanks!
Geez, that's tough. I think I'd give the edge to Mondeluz though. I liked them very much. :-)
Thank you so much! I thought so too =)
Marichelle Falqueza Sure, anytime.
could you compare watercolour pencils as pencils? im trying to choose a set for adding colour to sketches and want to keep it to minimal tools to carry. i have a few Durer, Derwent water and 1! Mondeluz (i have no idea what i've done but i regret it). i already don't like the derwent because they're chalky. my favourite pencils are Derwent artists (probably 'vintage' version now). anyway do you think this would be worth a comparison? versatility/colour options suitable for sketching people even? I'm torn between the Durer and Mondeluz but i'e never tried many (have inktense blocks but they can be too opaque and messy).
If you search my videos you will find a comparison vid I did some time ago, but the bottom line is you have two really good wc pencils, but the Faber-Castell Albrecht-Durer should be your first choice in my opinion. 👍👍😃😃
Thank you :) I think you're right! the Mondulez seem too fluorescent too and as a pencil uneven in colour. but i may end up with both eventually lol.
thanks a lot! very useful)
+Kate Mironova Sure Kate - Thanks for the note. - Marty
tengo Caran dache crayon. Pero en Argentina aún no llegan los museum aquarell pencil. quisiera tener en lápiz aquarell. Me recomiendas lyra? muchas gracias
Saludos Mariaraquel - Los de Lyra son buenos, pero no tan bueno como Ceran d' Ache . ¿Ha tratado de lápices de Faber - Castell Polychromo ? ¡Espero que esto ayude! Marty ~
Si los tengo y son geniales-Pero mi pregunta era sobre lápices acuarelables cual es el mejor en cuanto a pigmento y luz,Muchas gracias
Mariaraquel Oliver Los mejores lápices de acuarela all-around son Faber -Castell Albrecht Durer , pero los mejores lápices de acuarela en el mundo son Caran d' Ache Museo de la acuarela .
Muchas gracias y a ti cual prefieres?
Hay tantos grandes trabajos por ahí hoy en día, pero si usted puede encontrarlos usted debe tratar de Stillman y Birn Alfa o cuadernos de la serie Zeta . Si necesita sólo unas cuadras de papel de acuarela que debe tratar los arcos 300 lb , Fabriano (que es excelente ) o simplemente tratar de papel de acuarela de fluidos . Hoep eso ayuda.
it's not very good for watercolors
I gave them a good rating. I thought they were pretty good. :-)
Great video! Thank you so much for the ranking at the end. I purchased the Caran d'asch set and am loving the quality so much. You are spot on as I knew you'd be. Best regards from Michigan.
+Judy Brown Absolutely! Happy you like the new format. Yes, Caran d'Ache are simply the best. - Marty
Great video. What is your favorite sharpener and where do you get it? I'm just getting started in pencils, I have Inktense and I am afraid to waste any by sharpen them.
+REBECCA SHARP Hello there Rebecca, I would recommend that you get M&R Brass Pencil Sharpeners or the Alvin Glass Inkwell Sharpener. Those sharpeners are made with the most premium German materials and work wonders on colored pencils. I am good friends with Marty so you can trust me. :)
+SuperFlawless9 Thanks Patrick. Flawless recommendations. - Marty
