i love how you showed the an alternative technique when using these oil pastels ! it shows that u rlly want to give them a chance even though they've been hard to work with. we love a fair and impartial kween !
I can’t be the only one that thinks the first one looked really good. I think if you give an incredible artist a piece of 💩and tell them to create art… they will still create amazing art. It’s the talent.
Hey if those are all you have you learn to work around their weaknesses Great artists made portraits with a silver stick. You can do anything with enough prep and motivation
These pastels are what we used in high school. This is probably why I always thought oil pastels were hard to use and didn’t look good. I will have to try other brands and give it a shot 😊
You're correct. This version of Cray Pas is a beginner's youth version. Cray Pas Expressionist oil pastels are like night and day to these. These have beautiful colors, but they are difficult to work with, once you've worked with better. But to be fair, he's doing a review - an honest review.😊
The second picture was so good. You blended that green in there around the mouth very well 👀. I think there's a place for less opaque/ translucent mediums you just have to figure out how best to use them so this was such a good review for that. I actually find your reviews really helpful I just wish some of these pastels were available where I'm from! 🍬
I try to paint & practice alot but most of my paintings look like a 1st graders project but I just love painting! Anyway my point being I'm not an artist but I loved the first one as well! 🤷
They're the first set oil pastels I bought and now I understand why I didn't feel good working with them. I landed on yout channel to find solutions and answers. Thanks for everything!
I swear, I rewind 50x per video cause I love watching all the funniest bits over and over 😂 your channel ALWAYS makes me laugh, ty for doing that for us 😇
My day’s been pretty crummy, but this was such a refreshing and sweet way to wrap things up. Thank you for that, keep doing what you’re doin. Also GOD DAMN HOW YOU USE COLORS IS AMAZZZINNGGG
"these oil pastels will not layer" that's basically my experience with mungyo's blue box "artist's" oil pastels too. And I bought them because I thought they would be opaque. Lol. But those can also make really smooth colors and gradients when you stack them on the paper. With these types of translucent, ghost ass oil pastels you have to work with light to dark instead of dark to light most of the time
@@silverkip2992 I painted a dog today. It came out surprisingly good! I kept the few colors I used in my hands and suddenly I could blend the colors quite a lot. Maybe they just needed a bit of warmth and the right paper with structure. But yes, could not really add much light on dark…
Loved both of your images, 2nd one was so weird and pretty! So cool that you trialled cheap crayons, it gives me hope with my own cheapy ones, I'll be pulling them out to have a go again!
OMG, I just found my stash of those exact oil pastels! 😂 Watching your video made me realized I've probably never used oil pastels properly. Thanks for the vid!
First of all, I love your videos. You are hilarious and you are so right about the sour gummy’s. Anything sour! I actually loved your first pic. It’s even more amazing that you did that with pastels that weren’t that great. All your work I think is amazing. So glad I found you on RUclips.
I start teaching tomorrow and spent 12 hours at work today. Coming home to this was a heaven-sent blessing. And TWO beautiful pieces to enjoy? Buh-less-ing!
Thus is pretty strange to me, because I had achieved my most brilliant portrait with them, but they should be working on watercolour paper such as ARCHE cold press with a colours shaper mainly, and I had excellent results too with Pentel art set of #50 for kids on the back of canvas at DOLLARS TREE and they are amazingly on Somerset watercolour paper 270gsm! ! The Cray-Pas expressionist are more pigmented than Sakura Cray-Pas juniors! Hope it will be useful. I am loving to work with Mungyo gallery soft oil pastels mostly and I had experiented over 26 brands throughout the world!
The second face was gorgeous. Being able to see the crosshatching and strokes gave it a different feel. Your style is so pronounced! I need to work on evolving my style, I wish to one day be as good as you.
Omg!!! I bought this set of pastels a couple of months ago bc i couldn’t find crayola and I’ve been using them. I had reallyyyy similar issues with blending and layering. I thought it was just me. This clears a lot of things up. Also!!! For spooky season, I’d love to see more 3D type art like your photoshoot, coralline doll, and Halloween decoration videos you put out last year. I discovered your channel around that time and I adore those videos!! Some suggestions for Halloween characters to draw: Sally from Nightmare, Dracula since you did Frankenstein, and the witches from Hocus Pocus ☺️
Your reviews are so helpful. Unlike other ordinary reviews showing forever making color swatches, you show how each brand can work in actual processes. It's so hard to resist the temptation to buy each and every one of the products you present (actually I did buy a Crayola set after watching your video for the first time).
Seriously brilliant portraits! Just discovered your channel and found myself binge-watching your videos. Love your channel, how you add in a bit of humor, all the valuable tips and information you share. Real great 🙌
I used your mixed color technique and squinting. The self portrait is kind of muddy, but the squinting really helped!!!!!!!. It’s a very small self portrait I did using color pencils, nice ones, faber castle polychromos oil based. I don’t know how to do what you do, it’ll take a lot of practice. But the squinting made a huge difference. Ty.:)🍬
Huh I actually am really into the first one! Its definitely different than youre usual vibe but its cool its kind of like a pastel muted version like gives me a very mellow calm feeling. The feelings of both are really nice like I really like both!!
Hopped on YT readying myself to scroll through some "regular degular" type vids but noooooo.. here you are being awesome and sneaking to the top of my feed. Thank you for posting today - Love your work and that honest, down-to-earth vibe you occasionally allow us to see behind all of your shenanigans. 😁 Keep being amazing. 👏
You gots ta try Candy Corn Nerds!!! My new favorite thang!!!! You'll love em, you always seem to enjoy all the candies i LOVE so I'm positive you'll be obsessed!!🤘
I would really like to see color swatches of the pentel and cray-pas. I get the feeling that in the pentel colors they are all kind of the same shade of each color, while the cray pas seems more varied.
Try them on black paper, and try the Expressionist line. They’re a bit better at layering, and have a lot of color. When it’s on black paper the color really pops
I love the effects in the first drawing. The sgrafitto was very nicely done. The second work is more of a semi blend and also nicely done. I vote for the first one.
Ils sont supers ces pastels et j’ai pu être en mesure de faire des portraits très réalistes! Ces avec eux que j’ai commencé, car je fait qu’ils sont petits pour l’utilité des enfants, ils sont parfaits pour débuter! Je l’ai adoré même plus que les Sennelier! Les Mungyo pour les étudiants sont exécrables, tout comme les Holbein pour d’étudiants! Par contre, les Cray Pas ne sont pas mal et les Mungyo extra soft sont les plus supers, en raison de leurs versatilité! Du Québec in Canada 🇨🇦! I am following you since the two years! I love you send of humor! 😊❤
Thanks for the Crayola pastel hook up. They are affordable and blend-able. Perfect for art supply junky like me. I did some pastel in high school which was eons ago. And wanted to ease back into it.. I tried artist loft and I was so not happy. I mainly do acrylic and watercolor. Pastels are fun and I can keep working without having to watch paint dry. Your work is beautiful and you are super talented. Stay Juicy.
You should do like your own version of nightmare before Christmas or maybe The Corpse Bride? I'm late but I think that would be cool especially with all the different colors you'll use and different approach you could take to blandish designs with your art style! Btw love the first one because you went in the passion second ones good cause you went in with a technique 😌
Idk why the second one gave me very much Stephen Gammell vibes but that made me think I want to see you do scary stories to tell in the dark illustrations in your style 👀
I had some Walmart oil pastels which got stolen when my art kit got ripped off from my car. They cost me $5. Because of you I’m going to replace them and try them out. I liked what I did do w them before, I drew a building w them, a library in Hollywood, fla.
To be honest, I love both of those. Im not a big fan of oil pastels myself, but if I didnt watch this video, you couldve told me it was a top brand and I wouldve believed it.
I do like the first one best. Mainly because it has bold colors. The second one is light and faded looking. Have you given a review in the Rembrandt yet?
i think last spooky season you mentioned that you sometimes like to do makeup for halloween costumes. would love to see a chitty-chatty video of that, if you're down
hm, I actually like both of these and I think the Craypas could be interesting for a different style/technique than the heavy layering. I might still pick up a small pack of them and see what I can do with them. I adore your style, as I repeatedly say, your work got me interested in oil pastels after years and years, but in most mediums, I tend to do thin layers so these and that cross-hatching style might suit me more.
I just found your page and have been "catching up." I find you both entertaining and inspirational. Have you done a review on Paul Rubens oil pastels? I would love to see it if you have. Also, a paper for oil pastels review? If you have already, could you please point me in that direction? Thanks in advance!
Thank you for this review I'm just staring out in oilpastel just wanted a student grade to learn on, Jerry's artarama had metallic oil pastel in sake fir 24.00 so I grab them. But immalso gonna grab the crayola oil pastel as I'm like you if a product is expensive than I hored them...thank you for letting me come in your art studio at 439am my time...many art blessing to you...
![[Eng sub] What are these? "Neon color Oil pastels"](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/168iaQa_HTA/mqdefault.jpg)
Sorry y'all This video is kinda quick and fast. I am trying to post as much as I can before spooky season!
YESSS SPOOKY SEASON👻🎃
What paper do you use? Thank you 😊
Please do chucky for spooky season!
This is the first video I've ever watched from you, so I'm excited to see more :)
Hereditary portrait! 😍
Him: "mhmm no"
Also him: literally draws a master piece
lmao for real tho 😂😂
Your “scratchy scratch” sounds a little bit Gollum-esque and I’m here for it 😂
i love how you showed the an alternative technique when using these oil pastels ! it shows that u rlly want to give them a chance even though they've been hard to work with. we love a fair and impartial kween !
Yass! Also I just have to say that your profile pic is too cute! 😭✨
I can’t be the only one that thinks the first one looked really good.
I think if you give an incredible artist a piece of 💩and tell them to create art… they will still create amazing art. It’s the talent.
i haven't watched the video yet but those are the oil pastels im currently using 👀 and im terrified that blackbean is gonna rip them to shreds 💀
😬😬😬 * sucky noise through clenched teeth *
He.. actually... did.. 😬🤣
Dude sammmeee
Hey if those are all you have you learn to work around their weaknesses
Great artists made portraits with a silver stick. You can do anything with enough prep and motivation
You could probably call the second technique "glazing" which describes how very transparent pigments are layered. e.g. pottery, watercolor, etc
These pastels are what we used in high school. This is probably why I always thought oil pastels were hard to use and didn’t look good. I will have to try other brands and give it a shot 😊

I actually find your reviews really helpful I just wish some of these pastels were available where I'm from! 🍬
So I still thought the first drawing was gorgeous!
I second this
Because I’m personally not a “artist” persay,I would say the first one looks better. :)
Me too 🙃
I try to paint & practice alot but most of my paintings look like a 1st graders project but I just love painting! Anyway my point being I'm not an artist but I loved the first one as well! 🤷

I’m glad I’m not the only one!
i want to be your friend so bad!! your personality is everything
Eveytime I watch ur videos you give me serotonin 💕 It makes me happy to see someone doing what they love ☺
Oh man, I cannot WAIT for your spooky season creativeness! 🖤🖤🖤
My day’s been pretty crummy, but this was such a refreshing and sweet way to wrap things up. Thank you for that, keep doing what you’re doin.
Also GOD DAMN HOW YOU USE COLORS IS AMAZZZINNGGG
That second drawing was BANGING!! I love the shapes and values that you create! Like WHAT 😵💫
Your intros kill me every time! I would LOVE to see Elvira in your art style for Halloween!!!
I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT YOUR ART AND PERSONALITY. Im so happy I found you, I don't know how I found you ..but..I did so "yeeaayyy"

I love your intros and narratives so much 😂 makes me feel like I’m actually talking to you
Thank you for reviewing this. Was using this brand. I now understand why i wasnt getting the same result following your videos
0:08 “It’s 1 am what are you doing in my house??”
I WANT WAFFLE FRIES
Loved both of your images, 2nd one was so weird and pretty! So cool that you trialled cheap crayons, it gives me hope with my own cheapy ones, I'll be pulling them out to have a go again!
Omg benge watching your videos is the best thing that got me through in being qurantined.Luv your videos so much.
Omg I’ve been using this brand and this was the tutorial I needed!!! Im so grateful for your videos, now I have a new technique to practice with. 💚🥺
Oh the candy is back! For spooky season, maybe turning fashion icons into monsters? ghoulish Dita von Teese, Zombie Naomi Cmabell -kinda stuff :)
Alot of famous artists left the under painting showing through. It adds character to the piece. Think Basquiat.
You explain things better than you think you do. I like that feathering technique.
OMG, I just found my stash of those exact oil pastels! 😂 Watching your video made me realized I've probably never used oil pastels properly. Thanks for the vid!
That was great problem solving using the different technique,I really like how the second one came out!
First of all, I love your videos. You are hilarious and you are so right about the sour gummy’s. Anything sour! I actually loved your first pic. It’s even more amazing that you did that with pastels that weren’t that great. All your work I think is amazing. So glad I found you on RUclips.

I would love to see you review the Paul Rubens oil pastels and the Faber-Castell Creative Studio oil pastels!
Dude I'm so happy I stumbled across your youtube!! I follow you on tiktok and your videos are always such a big serotonin boost for me!
Oh YAY! We missed you! Excellent review. I had the SAME experience with these. Bad layering and blending for me too, but I still like the art!
i loooove that blurry effect in the second one

You're my favourite! You just brighten my day
Yessss let's go a new video!
the fancy close up music is the best part
Found your channel a few weeks ago and this is the first time I've been early! Great video as always :)
Yeah…I bought some of those from Staples. I gave them away the same day LOL
I’m a lefty, too 🥰👍🏽
THE FIRST PICTURE IS GOOD !!!
OMG I REMEMBER THOSE WE HAD THOSE IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL OMG
I kid you not, im watching this at 1am and the intro made me laugh so hard. 😂😂
I used to use those when i was in school. Especially in High School. Love those! And you are very critical of yourself. lol
The candy is back 🤣🍬🍬_”i was lied to”😂😂, won’t even get excited for the scratchy scratch. Nooo😭😭💔😂
I love your vids because they are the perfect mix of art for art and youtube creator-whatever-entertainment.
Love your energy and love watching your videos!!
To be honest, I love both of those. Im not a big fan of oil pastels myself, but if I didnt watch this video, you couldve told me it was a top brand and I wouldve believed it.
Blackbean: hmmmm NO!
also him: draws a master piece
HEYYY COULD YOU DO A ZooM CLASS
The pieces still came out beautifully
I do like the first one best. Mainly because it has bold colors. The second one is light and faded looking. Have you given a review in the Rembrandt yet?
And what about Windsor & Newton oil paints?
I like both honestly but the first one is more soothing to look at not gone lie the 2nd one creeps me out
I laugh alot watchin your videos sometimes I don't even know why😂😂 u made my day ❤
You're one of the best RUclipsrs
Been waiting for you to review them they're one of my faves oil pastels to use.
Lmao so it turned out its that craypas thats making my art look bad, ill buy other brands pfft!
New teacher here! Wondering what the best oil pastel would be for junior high students just starting out with art? Love your work!!
When I read the title I thought you were talking about oil pastels your crazy grandpa gave you, so you called him cray-pa :')
You are freaking amazingggggg your style is so unique :O
Love the colours in the 2nd face.😍
