  • Let’s face it, I love BLING! We’ve made several videos swatching, comparing, and coloring various metallic and pearlescent paints. But this time I have included some paints recommended by some of you. And one of these paint tins costs around $120 for only 12 half-pans! Watch me swatch and compare 14 different beautiful paints, on both white and black paper, to see which one(s) I would recommend you purchase. (One of the cheaper sets surprised us!)

    I think the finetec/coliro paints truly satisfy the need for bling. While they can be pricey, they also have mica sets that are amazing and somewhat better priced.
    Schmincke Aqua Bronze is my current metallic obsession. So shiny!

    I bought the Rembrandt chameleon colors individually and I’ve used them almost every time I’ve done watercolor projects. I use them for everything from mermaid scales, to adding texture to bird feathers. They’re really expensive but I definitely plan to buy them again when mine run out.

    • @joymiller9668
      @joymiller9668 7 месяцев назад +9

      There is nothing that compares to these in professional brands, I bought chameleon mica powder and made some small personal watercolor pans and they come really close except they aren't completely clear. But that is cheaper and more beautiful than any store bought set.

    I think I would purchase the kuretake gem, opals and pearls for a combo for black and white paper. Those hobby lobby ones sure are amazing though. Being I don't use watercolor really often those could be the way to go as well. It is a tough choice. The rembrandts are spectacular but not for the price for the amount of use they would get by me.

    So, in reference to using those inference or light Pearl mica paints on white paper and not showing up well but you want the payoff, all you have to do is lay down some dark paint as a base underneath, the. When it’s dry go in with your interference shade on top to show up like it does on your black paper. Like when you do those nail polishes that really shine over black polish. Think of it that way.

      Excellent advice, especially since I think that a person may struggle to find black cotton rag paper. Acid-free paper is still made out of wood pulp and eventually that lignin I guess overcomes the buffer and the paper becomes acidic again.

    I have the opals and gems. Where the opals really look their best is in thin washes on black paper. The color really pops when more of the black paper is seen through the wash of paint. If the layer gets too thick the opals look a lot like the gems.

  • @lmcintire-brooks475

    I was surprised you liked the Kuretake Gems and they did look good when you swatched them. But I have that gem set and it didn't look anywhere as colorful and robust for me as it does for you on camera. I have the derwent and they're dismal. I LOVED the Rembrandt and would buy those no matter how much they are. My favorites are the Kuretake Opals. They make shimmery background on white paper when you're painting Christmas cards and whatnot. I have the Paul Rubens Gucai set and mine are awful. I almost think mine came from a defective batch. When I put water on them with the brush, they clump up in balls of paint and clumps on my paper. They were very oily to the touch when I first opened them before I even put brush to them to test them out.

    I've been a Professional Watercolour Artist since the mid 70s and could open my own shoppe with the supplies I have collected over the years...the Rembrandt set you bought are not bad but by no means are worth that price! The Arteza Metallic set is actually much better and affordable! Most Metallics are not lightfast because Professional Artist don't use these paints normally for a professional piece of work...They tend to be more for craft projects and such! Personally I love the Kurtake and Paul Rubens and have been using them for years now!...Also you can make your own Metallic paints with some basic supplies that will be better than any set you can buy! ...Arteza has a complete collection of Micxa powers that can be transformed into gorgeous paint!!!! Buy the way the rating of "1" for lightfastness is a low rating...and using the Metallics for Dragonfly wings is a brilliant idea and creates a stunning result...I unfortunately had to stop my monthly subscription due to my current health problems...$$$ has become a problem for me after 5 years of my past membership...but as soon as I am able I hope to resubscribe to your excellent channel and source of amazing educational products...I especially use your products for when I teach my students....many blessings and thanks to you both for all that both you and Steve do for so many Creatives out there!!! ...and one more thing Jen...You truly need to start using Watercolours more than you have in the past! You are a brilliant Artist Jen and you would excel in this medium based on your past work! I love your creativity...and how much inspiration you give so freely to so many of us Jen!!! If you ever need any advice or tips and tricks it would please me so much to assist you in any way I could! Many blessings and a very Happy New Year to you both!!!

The Fintec are possible the best with the largest variety of colours available, you can purchase individual pans or a variety of sets.
    My favouries are the Schminke and FInetec brands, Finetec has a much larger colour range

    Here is a very helpful watercolor tip you should use a synthetic brush for these type of paints or any paint that is harder to activate I know that is a synthetic brush your using the mimics ...but they are to mimic natural hair so they're much softer something like a white bristle or a golden bristle brush would do you a lot better.

Then I got the Soho which I mostly use on white watercolor paper and I like them. I think the interference color show up well for insect wings, aroas, dragon scales etc. My final thoughts, I would go with the less expensive sets and then supplement with single pans where possible of Rembrandt since those colors are so great on black, but I wasn't happy with them on white.

    I love finetec best for their metal colored metallics... goes on so smooth and opaque, not streaky. The kuretake and soho looked really good in terms of color pow. I enjoy the guccai ones, they have all kinds of effects and subtleties that really show off on rice paper. The real standout for me was the rembrandt dazzlers. I have a tube of one chameleon color, and it's divine. I think they're more whispery than shouty, and the flash as you shift your gaze makes you look again to see what's going on there. I am soooooo glad I'm committed to a No Buy until I actually start to use up my supplies, or I'd already have ordered the rembrandts and gems. Thanks for the eye candy, and have a sparkly new year!

    The most expensive watercolors I have bought are from Roman Schmalz watercolor and A. Gallo and I think they are worth every penny.

    Thanks for the info. I did just drop the $118 for the Rembrandt pans, however, I will tell you that there are 10ml tubes of this set on Craft Stash for 136.79. That's an extra pan at least for about $18 more...a really great deal!

    Many etsy brands are like the Rembrandt. I like Reneeessance. I'm surprisingly interested in the hobbylobby. I have a bunch of metallic kuretake but I don't feel like they look that good.

    I think to start I would do a set like the Hobby Lobby just to see if I liked using metallics. I like that it has an array of colors to work with. I am looking at the colors. If I wanted the glitter and glow there are a couple that I think are workable, but the Rembrandt's are amazing. I could never see myself spending the money on those, but they are very nice.

    The Rembrandts win for me, but are beyond the budget of many. I think for hobbyists and colorists, the Kuretaki paints are probably the best.

    Fabulous review of these paints🤓. I own a few sets of metallic/pearl types. I would love to get the Rembrandt set, but I am retired, thus need to look at what I can afford and really need (the want monster is forever active🤣). I love colored pencil, watercolor and recently gouache. Also love crafting. Way too many supplies catch my eye. I may consider buying a smaller set of Soho, since several of the colors in that large set looks like duplicates. Before I shop, I will watch this video again. Thanks so very much for sharing your knowledge and time with us.😘. Happy New Year.

    Jen Jen Jen Jen Jen!!! Guess what I found? Pentel, the makers of sparkle pops, have new colors in their Pentel Dual Metallic. I was browsing Amazon and saw what looked to be different barrel colors and they WERE!!! It's on the package with the butterfly on it! Black box with sparkly butterfly!

    The Van Gogh paints set has a travel brush in it, but the back end of the brush is a tool for flicking the paint pans out of the pallets. No need for a sharp knife!

    I have to say I’m very impressed with Hobby lobby. For the price, if you’re coloring as a hobby like myself I think it works really well.

    I think what’s worth mentioning is that it depends where you’re located. For me UK Amazon has the Rembrandts for £68 which is $89 according to google. (I’d love them but I’m not going to buy them because that’s still too much for me!). I suspect the derwent and the cotman will be cheaper for me too. the Paul Rubens’s and kuretakes were really nice. I was surprised not to see the Arteza ones. I have them and I really love them. I’d have been so interested to see them in comparison to all these others! I want the kuretake opals even more now 😁

    Hi Jennifer, as far as I know none of the iridescent are lightfast because of the Mica in them. I love shinny watercolors...you can add the Sennelier to your list..they come in tube form and cheaper than the Rembrandt ones. Nice Job through!

    I think it would be fun to paint a view of a coffee cup and paint the pretty metallic rinse water for the coffee inside.

    I’m very new to watercolour (only got my paints a week ago) but I’m very tempted by the Kuretake starry pallet

  • @angellove2911
    @angellove2911 7 месяцев назад

    The trick with kuretake is to let the water sit for a minute first then swatch. Only on the pearly colors though, and there are 5 new gem colors for 2023, just released in late fall....they are in a new 24 set

    I was hoping the Paul Reubens would be better, since I love my regular watercolors of thiers. But, after seeing this- I am going for the Finetech and the Rembrandt!

  • @artwithalexander5359
    @artwithalexander5359 7 месяцев назад

    i have that fine tec set, very happy with them. they have other metalic/pearlescent colors i hope to get them someday. not sure about over 10$ per pan on those rhembrants, but i bet they would last for years because i don't see anyone making whole pictures with them (unless you really like to paint space). as highlights and small special effect areas they would really shine. my basic problem with the cheaper ones like hobby lobby and even the cottman's is that they do not give very good coverage. they tend to be unable to stand alone and i have had a hard time getting them to apply smoothly. i might have to layer fine tec twice for full coverage but it is easy to get good even coverage with them. in fact i used them on the portal edging of my logo.
