    Thank you for remembering we beginners. I would have no idea how to properly use Inktense pencils without videos like this one. I cannot afford them on my budget right now, but maybe I will catch a break on a store's closing one day like you did.

      Glad it was helpful! Thank you so much for taking the time to comment ! Id say the Niyoni watercolor pencils that i showed in a video are a great budget brand for watercolor pencils and are very nicely pigmented

    Hi Maia this was really excellent. This is so helpful and explains it perfectly. I can’t wait to try this now and see how it goes. I think it would make the page color up so much quicker and be much easier on my hands. Thank you so much. Now I can’t wait to see the basing with watercolor and adding shading on top with pencil. Great job and thanks so much. 😊

    Fantastic! That was incredibly helpful. You explained and demonstrated it beautifully. I wondered why my watercolor pencil work always looks so blah. I'm amazed at how quickly you can color and get amazing results. I had heard of people using markers as a base, but basing this way provides a lot of built in highlighting and dimension right from the start. I can hardly wait to try it.
    Your work is absolutely stunning. Thanks for sharing not only the finished pages, but your tips, techniques and tried and true materials!

    • @coloredbymaia6476
      @coloredbymaia6476  9 месяцев назад

      Bingo !! You hit the nail on the head !! Basing this way gives far more dimension than basing with markers !! Although i do do that sometimes as well. Thank you so much for the kind words and im so so happy it was helpful! Comments like these keep me going ! Happy coloring to you dear !

    Great video. I also always go light into dark and I never use a water brush because I find it too wet so I use a damp paintbrush. Also the jnktense being ink is permanent while watercolour pencil can be worked more. 😊

    Yhank you for tutorial. It really looks so easy when you do it.
    When you were doing those circles it seemed like watercolor pencils have smoother gradient than inktense. Was it coincidence or is it something that you can confirm? It is really difficult to judge from this video alone as the point wasnt to compare or achieve smooth gradient.

    • @coloredbymaia6476
      @coloredbymaia6476  9 месяцев назад +1

      Hi hun !!! It probably was both coincidence and not , because inktense are far more pigmented so if you use a heavy hand like i probably did than the gradient wont be smooth, but you can absolutely achieve a smooth gradient with inktense if you take your time and are not too heavy handed. Do you know what i mean ? ?
