This is perfect for the spirit of Inktober😀 I love how the toucan turned out, especially with all those white highlights at the end😊 I’m not so great with regular watercolors so I imagine inktense might be even harder to use, but I’m curious about them now😂 that green color at the beginning looks so much more yellow in the swatch than the pan, odd!!

Thank you! Yes, I'd say the Inktense are a bit more difficult than watercolours, but not too bad really. It is just that drying and not budging thing which can be a problem, lol. That yellow looks so green when dry, even in the pencil and block! It's a strange one.

Thank-you for this review Becky! I have to confess, I LOVE using inks so much more than watercolour! Ink seems to be my go-to painting medium if I don't have much time. VERY cute toucan ❤️❤️❤️

Hi, thanks the review. Have been playing with the Inktense pencils for a bit, but was considering the block until I saw the pans. I really enjoyed your review and pushed me over the edge to get a set. Why Inktense? Here is SW VIC near Warrnambool (and other parts of Australia!) the colours around the paddocks, nature, and the Southern Ocean can get really saturated in the different lights and watercolours struggle and pastels are great… but these look great for Plein air work. Thanks again.

I prefer these pans to the blocks, for sure! I have the block set too but they get so messy, haha. I love the landscape around SW VIC - we visited Warrnambool a few years ago, and drove down through Port Fairy to Portland. We've driven the Great Ocean Road a few times too - I can't get enough of it. ❤

Beautiful job becky, I've just ordered some paints I came across on amazon they are called super Vision. I've never seen them they just suddenly popped up, I've ordered the super granulating set in tubes and a set called greys but they are pinks and other colours. They look amazing and great names like, rose Ash, golden grèn, red blue. I'm putting them away for christmas, was wondering have you ever seen them or do you have them and if so what they are like?. They were £62 for 10 15ml tubes so not expensive

White inktense is wonderful and it the best part of this pallet (unlike traditional watercolour). It is opaque, you can use if for highlights. You can mix it with colours to make your own pastels. Or you can correct mistakes with it and paint over it once dry.

Very interesting, I have seen these before. Are they meant to be like watercolors or do you think they are just like the inktense blocks but made to fit pans? I always thought they were the same as the blocks but maybe I'm wrong. I know the white block is a lot more opaque then that white though.

They are close to the blocks but in separate tests they do paint out quite a bit different. Also some of the pan colour names are different and aren't in the pencils or blocks sets. I might do a follow up comparison video because I didn't want to include it all in this one and make it confusing. 😬

I wonder, which are those 3 extra colors?!... I'm gonna go see each color to understand how is that possible, since in this video you showed the 12 set colors are in the 24 set.... right?! Or am I mistaken?!.... Anyways, let me go check again.... I just wanted to comment this before I went all nerdy about it on Blick 😅😅😅😅😅 Brb 😂😂😂😂 UPDATE: Well, Im back and yes! There are 3 more colors available open stock. I dont understand why! For me and my OCD that is annoying cause, if I decided to buy all the colors, where am I supposed to place them? Is not easy having OCD.... not joking about it! If I want to buy, I would HAVE to buy the 24 set, the 3 extra colors, and then, place them all together in a different palette! 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ I know is silly, but....

@BeckyTregear

Most of them are fairly transparent but they definitely have a different binder and feel thicker than watercolours, so they are kind of in their own category and I had to alter my technique a bit to use them. 😊

they look kinda dull compared to liquid acrylic inks you can get. except for that yellow, which stands out.

Perhaps this should be called watercolor inks instead. Inks are stark and vibrant. Watercolors is subtle and suggestive. Comparing this to regular watercolor doesn’t do justice to the full splendour of inks.

@BeckyTregear

Жыл бұрын

They kind of feel somewhere in between. Nowadays a lot of watercolours are extremely vibrant too - especially from professional brands. But they also act like inks too, so watercolour inks is also a good name for them. 🙂
