  • Hi guys!
    As you may remember I showed that I had added the Caran D’ache Pablo coloured pencils to my colouring collection a few months ago. I have had a play around with them and I am ready to share my thoughts and experience I have had with the pencils.
    I liked putting together this video and playing around with the pencils in various books and I hope you enjoy watching it!
    Happy colouring!

    I love my Pablos, I hope you enjoy them too. I think the colors are a great compliment to the Polychromos, especially for the lighter colors.

      @shelscolouringjourney  Год назад +1

      Thank you! I am enjoying playing with them, and totally agree that the light colours are great!! I may have to try out the supracolors in stock pencils, and see if I can get singles of the very light colours to work with my ADs 🤗💗

    I am about to turn 52 this weekend and finally get to pursue my childhood dream of coloring, using very very good quality pencil colors (didn’t have easy access to beautiful quality colored pencils nor are they easily available or affordable then). I watched so many reviews and finally decided on a set of Prismacolors and a couple of Hanna Karlzon and Maria Trolle coloring books. Absolutely love love the Prismacolors! I am a young child again 😂. I do wish I could afford the set of 120 Polychromos (priced at USD$350!!) and the Pablos (priced at USD$396!!!)

      @shelscolouringjourney  Год назад +2

      Ah, I am so glad you are getting to pursue this hobby and I hope you enjoy the journey. I think you have got some great stuff there to get you started.....I used only the Albrecht Dürers for 8 years before I got the Pablos. I think if you love your Prismacolors so much, you are sorted! Enjoy them until you are ready to try something else out 🤗💗

    I use pablos with my polychromos, in fact I have them in the same case together. It means I have lots more colours to use. I love the browns, blues, pinks and greens especially. There are only a couple that nearly duplicate the fabers.

    These are on my wish list. I do want these badly. However, I feel compelled to dispute a comment you made about Prismacolors, which you said you don't have. You commented they are not layering pencils. But they are! 6-7 layers on the right paper. (soft, light layering). They are very soft and you can't color these with a heavy hand. Just letting you know. Enjoy your Pablos!

    • @shelscolouringjourney
      @shelscolouringjourney  Год назад

      Thank you for correcting me, I guess I haven't used the Prismacolors myself so I wouldn't have a real feel of them. I will make sure to keep that in mind, thank you 🤗

    • @suewilkinson910
      @suewilkinson910 2 месяца назад +1

      @@shelscolouringjourney I'm a layering colourist and I layer Prismacolor pencils. They are great at it if you have a light hand. Some colourists are heavy handed with them and smoosh the colours together into blends. But that's the versatility of them, they can do both.
      However, I love my Pablos. Such a unique pallet. And as before I had them my favourites were Polychromos I do use them together because the colours complement each set so well and they layer the same.
      I started life with 18 Pablos and found I could do a double page speed with them that looked like I had a much bigger set because they layer to make new colours really, really well.

    Shelly, thank you once again for sharing your thoughts about the Pablos. I absolutely adore the way you color. I find all of your videos to be so inspirational and they could never be too long. I bought my first Mythographic book Aviary” , which doesn’t seem as complicated as some of the others, thanks to watching your channel.
    I own the 120 set of Pablo’s as well as the 76 Set Museum Aquarelle. I’m so glad that you’ve explained that the 120 set of Supracolor is the watercolor version of the Pablo’s. I’ve always wondered what was the difference between the Museum Aquarelle and the Supracolor’s and now I know. Keep up the wonderful video content and have a lovely weekend!🎨💕

    Hi Shelly, I am so happy for you, I really like my Pablo’s and I think you will too. I believe the reason others don’t like the Pablo’s is because they don’t take the time to learn how they work, there is definitely a learning curve. I had to giggle, because you arrange your pencil swatches exactly like I do, I haven’t seen anyone else do it this way. Shelly, your pencil work is magnificent and so inspirational! Thank you so much for sharing your Pablo’s.🤗💗

    Beautiful pictures. So glad you did a review on Pablo pencils. My go to's are Polychromos but I also have Albrecht Durers. One of your reviews inspired me to purchase a few Pablo pencils. I wasn't crazy about them but then realized that it could be the paper and I need to get use to them because they are a little different than my other pencils. I've tried them in a few other books. I'm still on the fence.
    Once you feel comfortable, I would love to see you use these in a video. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us!

    I just recently got the pablo's and I absolutely love them..! Not too soft, not too hard, just right for me : I've been using polychromos, but they make my hand hurt because of all the layering and the round barrel, so I've been looking for a replacement for a very long time. But I steered clear of the pablo pencils because I had heard really bad reviews here on youtube - scratchy, hard etc. Years later someone on youtube really loved them and then I bought a few open stock and was pleasantly surprised! Bought a 30 set and I'm slowly buying the rest open stock.
    Thank you for your review and the swatch chart! I'm going to copy the order you put them in, because Caran D'ache have a weird color chart, and like you, I'm used to faber castells way of setting up the colors.

    Thank you for sharing Shel. I come from the other direction in that my first pencils were the Supracolor soft, set of 40, 44 years ago!! I recently acquired the Albrecht Durer 120 and built up to the 120 Supracolor over the years. I think they complement each other well, but I think the AD win on a consistency of texture, a couple of my Supracolor are a little bit harder than the rest. I love the thicker lead of the AD which speeds up larger areas. I did not have the Pablos, but I have a lot of other non- watercolour pencil brands. I think I might pick a few unique colours in Pablos to try though, the ones I use most in the Supracolor. Recently got the Distress woodless watercolour pencils to use for background and they work well with the ADs but match the ink pads too.

    I have Albert pencils too and I do use them a lot and I love them The pencils that you're talking about Caran DAche are they soft or are they hard?
    I pretty much like the way that the Prisma pencils work because of this softness but I got used too Faber Castelle I also have poly chromos do you like the caran you just bought.

    Shelly, Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Pablos. Would it be possible for you to do a tutorial using these pencils. It would be great if you could also incorporate different medias or different blenders (just the way you did in the mythograhpic mermaid page). I absolutely love your tuturials. I had Albert D. for the longest time and only started using it following your tutorials and have fallen in love with them. Would love to learn how to use Pablos in a follow along if possible please. Thank you for taking the time to share all your wonderful tutorials with us.

And I will definitely keep in mind to use different mediums with it and blending options....thanks for the request 🤗💗

    I was kind of surprised you didn't go for the Supracolors, as they are watersoluble and the same color palette. I've purchased a few of both (along with a bunch of other more expensive brands) to try but haven't had a chance to yet because I'm trying to finish an acrylic painting that is taking a lot longer than I planned, and I'm one of those people who just has to finish what I'm working on before I start something else or I will never come back to it. Several greens, a light and dark of a bright color (different color for each brand), a brown.. enough to try a flower or such and get a good feel for them. I find that works much better for me than a 12 set which often is missing needed colors or has one each of bright unnatural primaries. I CAN mix from a primary palette but I really don't want to lol, it's too much work for me. I've seen swatch comparisons side by side of the Supras (same as the Pablos) and the Albrechts.. karenhullart has a comparison chart for watercolor pencils on her website if you are curious that covers six or seven of the artist quality brands... and really the difference is the pastels and the beige/browns. Otherwise while they are all so lovely in their tins there really isn't a lot of difference between lines in actual colors.. a few here or there.

    • @shelscolouringjourney
      @shelscolouringjourney  Год назад

      Yes, I was aware of the supracolors being the same colour range as the Pablos, but this time round I did want to get a set of pencils that were not watercolour pencils. I don't think all watercolour pencils will feel the same as the ADs do dry....and I wanted a non-water based option. I am thinking i could add the colours I like in the supracolors as stock pencils to add to my ADs if I really need to. Thanks for your insight....it is always interesting to read 🤗💗

      @shelscolouringjourney  Год назад

      You're welcome! Sorry I can't help too much with this as I don't use polys regularly....but I do find that the Pablos do have some really lovely colours that the polys don't - these could be added to the polys to add to them. I have found the Pablos softer than the few polys I have tried....but hope someone who has more experience with both brands can answer your query better 🤗💗

    Just a thought, since color order is very personal, but for me I find the "skin tones" fit with the earth reds.. like cinnamon, indian red, caput mortem, etc. Give them a swatch and see what you think.

    I got black widows. They have some beautiful colors and the pencils work great in books. BUT getting open stock is not so easy. And I don't want to buy a new tin when I need one pencil. So I am trying to use my Polychromos more.

    • @shelscolouringjourney
      @shelscolouringjourney  Год назад

      I agree, I do prefer having pencils where I can buy open stock pencils....in the long run it make more sense than buying one or two or even three new entire sets of a pencils just to replace a few here and there.....I love the flexibility of just picking one or two pencils when you need them 🤗💗

    I've always wondered if all of the pencil brands get together and decide which brands are going to carry certain colors, that way they all can sell more pencils because it requires us to buy different sets in order to get certain colors?! 🤔

    I absolutely value your opinion on any pencil, I went for the full set of AD's based on your colouring style which is very similar to mine, I love the AD's. If a creator had come along who was clearly a huge Prisma (insert random pencil brand) fan and I didn't share their opinions on that pencil, then I would likely not share their opinion on another brand. We all have our preferences, personally I don't like the soft squishy pencils but I wanted to give the Prismas a try to see what all the fuss was about... I loved the colour range but the pencils are not for me, especially at our UK prices. I'm currently doing what you did and trying 3 open stock pencils from the well known brands, purely for the colour choice and as nope, I just want to pick up the pencil and colour and not have to mix up 86587287 pencils to get the colour that I want lol. Sorry for the ramble lol x

      No need to apologise about the 'ramble'! I loved reading about your thoughts too!! And I totally agree with them....I wouldn't mind trying Prismas too, but like you said, not for the prices in the UK - and I do have a feeling I may not like them for the way I colour (although I have see how beautiful they work for so many people!).
      And....I am so glad you liked the ADs!! 🤗💗
