I am surprised all that oil leaked out of the Brown Pink Granular tube. Like you said you just received it in the mail the day before and the brand is barely out yet. I was under the impression that oil leakage is from long term storage. But your decades old vintage tubes don't even do that. Maybe they need to iron out some wrinkles in the production process.
Williamsburg still de grain, Italian Pink, and brown pink have nice granular qualities. I like to use them for underpainting-they are naturally lean and give a nice tooth to paint on top of. Since they’re transparent, they also make interesting, textural glazes.
I'm gonna be honest, I looked at the title and thumbnail and thought, "they're making oil paint with pine oil now!? I wonder how well it works? Is pine oil even a thing? What's tusc? Some kind of stabiliser?" Oh boy. 😅 I know granulation is a desirable thing in watercolours, creating colour effects in thin mixtures, but in oil paint? Maybe I'm too inexperienced, but I don't see the benefit.
Granular is about smoothness and creaminess of paint- the formulation of molecules, its bonds which allow for smoother flow of pigment. This is what watercolor artist look for- to make nice flowing sweeps of colors, and not have them separate as they thin in water- a quality that is profoundly useful for them- it is not about chunkiness of paint- they can though salt into the paint for that... For texture- use a medium, say a paste wax, or other thixotropic medium.
@@chrisgriffith1573 None of that is accurate. Granulating paints show a spotted effect as opposed to a completely smooth homogeneous application. To see granulation it's normally necessary to thin the paint and apply it more thingly. Viscosity and flow have little to do with it. A company could sell a very flowing tube of paint with a non-granulating pigment or with a granulating pigment. The same goes with firm "short" paint. Additives and how much vehicle is present matter for viscosity more than the particular pigment, overall. However, individual pigment's characters also can matter. A very gritty pigment will not move as smoothly under a palette knife as a very finely ground one.
I agree with you about the ultramarine blue. A little goes a long way for me - it is a strong color. I don't need to buy any more either.

I have bought from Jerry's before. Next time I order, I will have to see if they have any special colors I am interested in. Thanks for sharing!
Ooooooh that's great wood paint!!!
When I start making paint, would you like to review it ?
Sure, yeah, that sounds fun :D

Imagine if I sent you an April fools batch lol

Sometimes, people just want TEXTURE. :D ...I am not one of those people!
