These are amazing! Playful and yet so versatile while offering top quality. #notsponsored Loved the idea of the small vases with flowers, this is more fun than just swatching squares 😊. Neocolor II are great to make underpaintings for soft pastels, among other things. Thanks for sharing this, your little paintings are beautiful!
That's a great idea with the soft pastels! I could see that working well. They really encourage play, and that's what I like best about them so far. Thanks you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. 😊
Great review. I just got a set of Caran D’ache crayons and have drawn my first exercise, but haven’t wet it yet. I’ll be painting it after yoga. Thank you!
I started out with the 30 set. Liked them so much I completed the full set. I have some maribu crayons; they’re not inexpensive, they are soft and remind me of a lipstick; I prefer neocolors.
Some time ago I was able to obtain a large used set of Neocolor 2's. But it's almost too many, making it hard to choose some for a picture. So I'm going to gather these colors to make up this pastel group. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts and using them to make some little works for us! Btw, I love your nail polish. May I ask what's the color? 😊
@@warmyellowshade Oh my goodness, thank you! Btw, today I was able to gather a pastel set with a few substitutions that make it comparable to the one in your video. Thanks again and I hope you have a lovely visit with your family. ❤
@@epoelker Glad you were able to find the colours, it’s a nice set! Btw : Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure - 280 Plum’s the Word 😊 And thanks, I had a great visit!
I have found that mixed media paper is the best for these because watercolor paper contains too much tooth and it’s more difficult to get a smooth layer.
P.S. Lyra has a set ox water soluble wax crayons as well. I still prefer Caran d'Ache, because they blund and dissolve so well. Lyras have a lower price point and are very good quality. They are available only in sets and not open stock, which is a deal breaker for me.
People say they feel like drawing with the core of color pencil. It’s just doesn’t have the wood shell and these are a bit more waxy. That kinda turn me off. I was thinking it is opaque and thick like oil pastel and thought about getting one. Does it feel like drawing with color pencil?
No, I would say it's more like drawing with a pastel. It is a bit more slippery? I'm looking for the right word. Waxy, I guess! 😁 They are quite opaque and I have seen many mixed media artists use them to add finishing touches. I would check Kate Moody's channel for examples. I hope that helps! 💛
Piping in here, I am often listening to my own music while watching youtube so it bugs me when there's music throughout. I end up turning on CC and muting the video. I think a little intro/outro music is fine. I just purchased neocolor II and I'm excited to go play with them!
Other than a slight better pigment Quality than maribu art crayons. I don't see the big deal with these. I mean for the price! What exactly can you really do with them? Besides mark making. They just seem pointless.
Maribu Art Crayons, thanks I will look into those! I agree that they are definitely not for everyone. But if you are used to working pastels, I think you can achieve quite a bit. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
@@warmyellowshade The marubu art crayons are bigger and softer. Kinda remind me of the texture of lipstick. I like these a bit better because they're smaller and harder. That being said, definitely check out the marubu if you get the chance.

They're fun aren't they! Thanks a bunch, it was very different for me. 😊
Omg thank you for the link to the cool toned set on Amazon Germany! I've only seen them for $75+ USD. I got them for $40 after the conversion rate!!
Awesome! 🙌 Enjoy! Looks like a really fun set!

Love this! I am new to Neocolor IIs, and I am in love with them, but I learned a lot from your video.
Glad to hear it was helpful! 😊 I am really enjoying them too!
Great review. I just got a set of Caran D’ache crayons and have drawn my first exercise, but haven’t wet it yet. I’ll be painting it after yoga. Thank you!

Omg mine are on their way in the post how did RUclips know this 😂😂 Thanks for the video and hi from a new subscriber ❤
Google knows everything! 😂 Thanks for the sub! ☺️🙌

I do admit having more colours is tempting! 🤭 Wow, like a lipstick, that's really soft! Thanks for letting us know about the Maribu Crayons. 💛
more with these neo 2's please
Okie dokes! 😊👍

So happy to hear that you found it helpful! I'm visiting my parents right now, so I'll have to get back to you about the nail polish! 😅

@@warmyellowshade Thanks for your reply. So sorry for the delay!
I’ve seen some direct comparisons between these and the mungyo artist grade that were favorable.
Thanks for sharing! ☺️

I can see why, picking your own colors is usually best. But thanks for the tip about the Lyra crayons!

Probably would have been great but can’t hear you with the music
I am considering uploading a no music version in the future. 💛
great tutorial but the music in the background is really distracting and doesn't add to the content.
Glad you liked it! I may re-upload another version in the future without the background music. Thanks for watching! 💛

You can add them as an acdents on the top level of watercolor ❤love to add the texture on watercolor paper with these crayons
