Watercolor Pencil Comparison: Albrecht Durer vs. Goldfaber Aqua

- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2024
- Faber-Castell offers Albrecht Durer Artists’ watercolor pencils and Goldfaber Aqua watercolor pencils. Both watercolor lines are created to capture your creative visions but have a few differences in their design and delivery.
The art of creating with watercolor pencils is a unique experience that allows the artist a versatile approach to his or her work of art. Watercolor pencils function as your go-to medium when seeking to step out-of-the-box with different elements of art. Watercolor opens a door of creative possibilities. You can use it simply for drawing- quick sketching, hatching, or even shading on the surface. Blend it with water, and now you have a whole new realm of possibilities with your art.
The difference between Albrecht Durer and Goldfaber Aqua starts at the appearance and lead size. Albrecht Durer holds a thick 3.8 mm lead; creating fine precise lines with break resistance. Goldfaber Aqua holds a break-resistant 3.3 mm lead. The lead color of your Albrecht Durer can be identified by the entire coating of the pencil while Goldfaber Aqua is consistently grey with the lead shade painted on the end of the pencil. Goldfaber Aqua is also stamped with the item number and color number on the barrel where Albrecht Durer is labeled with color name in German and English, color number, and lightfast rating.
Albrecht Durer was created for the professional artist, with the highest quality pigments for unsurpassed lightfastness, many lasting for more than 100 years. Goldfaber Aqua is perfect for the student, aspiring artist, and hobby artist; its high-quality pigments are lightfast. Albrecht Durer is available in 120 different colors; Goldfaber Aqua 48.
Though both lines have different attributes: they still carry the Faber-Castell quality. Made in Germany, both watercolor pencils are SV bonded, hexagonal, and coated with water-based varnish. Both pencils are also fully water-soluble, easily blended when wet, permanent when dry, highly pigmented, and provide a soft and vibrant color laydown. Consistency is key as both pencil line’s colors are consistent wet or dry. For easy use of various media, our pencils are part of a unique color matching system encompassing all Faber-Castell Art & Graphic products.
Regardless if you create your art on a hobby or professional level, watercolor pencils are an excellent tool to express your artwork in a unique way and bring your colors to life!

Another basic difference I see is that Albrecht Dürer pencils disolve completely instead of Goldfaber Aqua that leave a little of pencil marks.
I've got the 24 set of Albrecht Dürer and once in a while I buy some of them individually.😍
I have the whole set of the Goldfabers and some of the Albrecht Durers. I use the mostly for adult coloring. I like the Goldfabers for coloring small areas better but I do like the Albrecht Durers for big Areas. I think they are smoother. They are both wonderful pencils and I do find that I can use them together.
I absolutely LOVE the polychromos pencils so I think I will get the Albrecht Durer set as well! I am a big fan of the Faber Castell brand. Every item I have bought from this brand has been great quality and definitely worth the money! I can't live without the polychromos so I can't wait to finally get a set of the Albrecht Durer pencils! I love the gelatos and the Black Edition pencils too! Those are some of my favorite items from this brand!
Thanks so much for your video comparison just as I was getting ready to buy myself some!
Watercolors are not permanent when dry. You can activate them with water again after they are dry.
Not the durers
@@Thegoon9000 you mean goldfaber Aqua is more flexible?
And wait how durrers can be permanent when it’s watercolours? 😅 Idk help me
@@kurtka_bain haven’t tried the goldfaber , but yeah durers are permanent or at least the most permanent you can get with watercolors. They are great for layering because of that.
@@Thegoon9000 thank you so much I’ll try it
@@kurtka_bain I would recommend you buy 1 or two loose to try out . But you won’t go wrong with the durers ! I love them !
Why didn't you include the Classic version? I mean the other one that is seal with the Red box.
Because they can not be used with water.🧐😉
@@Uhrensohn6669 there's a Faber Castell Watercolor Pencils on a Red Box or Can.
@@ivmara9987 Oh sorry, i didn't know that.
QUESTION: so the name of the color isn't on the Goldfaber Aqua, only the number?
Say Faber, whats the song name used in this video?
Hi NesuProps! The title of the song is "Wishful Thinking"
@@fabercastellusa Much appreciated. Greetings from Chile
I bought the golfaber aqua to use for repainting barbies but idk if i got the right ones? I thought the quality was the same but I'm seeing only people using the other fabar castell watercolor pencils...not sure if thoes just work better on vinyl or plastics...if anyone knows could you plz let me know if i just got the wrong pencils for my project...i tested the goldfaber but they just dont seem to work well (but I'm noob so it could be me lol)
The pencils have a high pigment concentration and color should appear nicely. Make sure to keep the pencils sharp. Albrecht Durer Watercolor Pencils have an even higher pigment concentration available in a larger color option range of 120. The pigment for both products is fully water-soluble and permanent once dried on a porous surface. As with all art materials, we suggest testing small sample pieces to make sure you are achieving your desired result. The product is designed for and tested on porous surfaces such as watercolor paper. A resin doll face, is not tested by the manufacturer to suggest specifics other than noted above.
@@fabercastellusa FaberCastellUSA wow thank you, this was very helpful. I ordered the Albrecht Durer line and its working amazing! I believe the ones i had before (goldfaber aqua) were just not cut out for the project i was using them for (doll repaints) but they work amazing for other projects. Thanks again for the help & I'm really enjoying this line of watercolor pencils :)
А goldfaber grip???
А в чем разница?? И где карандаши синие grip от фабера .. в чем разница
😍😍😍👏👏👏👏😍😍😍
Can someone answer my question? Aren't watercolors not permanent and can be reactivated with water.. so how is this any different? I'm confused..
uhm when watercolors are painted, it cant be reactivated again..unless f its cheap watercolors
The paints can be reactivated while on their palettes... So dried paint can still work... BUT once used in a painting, the paper absorbs the color... Yes you can lift some of the colors off the paper but it mostly depends on the tinting strength of the pigment. Highly tinting colors are almost impossible to erase...
Yes, they can be reactivated with water. Derwent inktense cannot once dry because they are ink.
