My thoughts on the OHUHU 'PASTEL' brush markers!
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 8. 01. 2021
- I apologize for my delayed/sporadic videos. I think i'm having a small flare up of my TA and I feel like a bag of bricks. (Not a happy bag of bricks either. đ) ANYWAY! for the First Impressions of the markers, Watch the video.
For a summary/review purposes, read my more concise thoughts I've compiled after editing this video:
I prefer this pack to their other 48 sets because it has a lot of colors in a mid-tone area which is what I gravitate towards along with my Pastel Copic's usually. I really wouldn't call the ink in these Ohuhu's "pastels." They work best when mixed with some of the other Ohuhu colors for contrast since they are lighter than 99% of Ohuhu's current colors. The colors are a pretty good hue range. I feel like the earth tones are a little too cool/cold for my personal liking but depending on how you use them, they should be okay for skin tones on the lighter range. They are probably best for illustrations more landscape-y in nature.
In conclusion, I would recommend these as a first Ohuhu set if you were on the fence between these and the original 48 set. Since you can build them up slower than darker colors. I also recommend them as an addition to the other Ohuhu sets since they are brand new colors and they will give you some actual contrast which is what other Ohuhu set's lack. Ideally with the 25 set of 'Skin-Tone''s as a secondary purchase. Unfortunately you do have to buy two sets for that, but thats how it goes with this brand. I still like the brush nib quality and the ink isn't patchy or anything weird. I don't think you'll be disappointed with these as a beginner. I was slightly disappointed just because they don't stack up next to actual pastel Copic markers, but they are a long way from how deep and rich the other Ohuhu set's are, and for that I am glad. Again, wouldn't really call these pastel, but they are lighter than the other options Ohuhu sells.
At the time of writing this, they are sold out on Amazon. So I guess you guys liked them! ;) It looks like you can still get them on the Ohuhu website though.
âș SUPPLIES USED:
Ohuhu Pastel: amzn.to/38uHzxX (www.ohuhu.com/product/Ohuhu-4...)
illo Sketchbook 8x8: amzn.to/2Q8mCAm

Also I forgot to mention, Ohuhu sent me these markers. I did not pay for them nor was I compensated monetarily to make this video. I would have bought them myself, not that it matters. I've actually been personally requesting Ohuhu release colors like this for years. I'm glad the day finally came, even if they aren't exactly the pastel colors I was hoping for. Maybe next time!

![USING EVERY SINGLE OHUHU MARKER?!!! [in one illustration!?]](/img/tr.png)
Quick tip for anyone who doesn't know: you actually put the colorless blender down before the colors! It's kind of like how you sometimes put water down before watercolor paints to help blend them together. You use the blender where you wanna blend two colors, then layer on top of that. Hope this helps, happy drawing!
DUDE what??? Thank you :D
Oooooh that sounds cool
Wait, really? I shall have to experiment with this notion!
I actually didn't know that, thanks for the tip! I'll have to go try this out for myself!
SJJDJDJ WAIT I DIDN'T KNOW OLIVER WATCHED RIN'S VIDEOS TOO
The second they release single refills for their markers theyâll be such a huge competitor itâs insane
that would be quite a changer. Especially since they have the reversible nibs so their markers bases last quite a long time.
I don't want the cost to go up tho đ
@@francesco.griffo they sell individual markers that are $2.42 which I think is fairly cheap. Itâs $3 less than the copics I think
@@prettypeach13 wait fr?! I had no idea, i need to get some of those!
@@simra22 the do, but itâs not for all the colors. Only a couple that were highly requested. You could also email them or request a color for the refill and they will try to make a refill for that color. If you email them they will (not sure if they still do) send you a free marker or the color you need. So if there isnât the color you need/want, just request it and they will definitely try to get it. I love their customer service and how they listen to their customers!
"Let's try light blue I think it's the darkest one we've got."
My sense of humor has decreased so much that that was funny to me.
i laugh at everything too XP
OMG ITS DEKUđą
@@ali-gv1ju yoooooo it is
@@ali-gv1ju đ€Š
Felt that
You should add a boy to the ohuhu group!! Youâre doing male characters more and more it would be cool! Maybe he rides a bike?
maybe its a little brother who tags along sometimes or something! i think that would be very cute
@@zebralovesgum yes! He rides a little tricycle
Or maybe an older brother?
@@meanjean7548 omg thats such a cute idea
Oh my god yes
When you realize that you've watched her since she didn't have copics and now she has ENOUGH copics to compare them to the ohuhus
i'm as amazed as you are đ
yes weâve come a long way lol
bro the first video that i watched from waffles is the one where she shows her sketchbooks from when she was younger and i think that was like 3 years ago
Yeup XD
I literally cried đ
Me: ohuhu
Rin: ohuhuhuhuhuhu
My mum: *oh ho ho* đ đ»
Funny seeing you here minty đđ I really liked ur realism video
HI MINTY I LOVE UR CHANNEL!
@@nj-adventures6151 hey nj! And thank you :D
omg happens to me every time đ
Lol
Itâs a Saturday, I watched a movie, made a cake, and now waffle posted? Best day ever!
DID YOU SAY CAKE?!
Yummy
I love Baking
@@anabelllamas1322 I love eating it
Youâre so lucky I have to do schoolwork on a Saturday lol
The only reason why I didnât bought these markers the exact moment Ohuhu released them is because I was waiting for ur reviewâš
Well I apologies for taking so long. đ
Kit vicious lol same!
Same
And? Will you get them now or not?
lol their out of stock đ©
Hey Rin!!!! You probably donât remember because you answer so many comments on all your videos, but a couple weeks ago, I commented on your one about drawing birds asking for advice on becoming more fluent. And OMG ever since you told me to keep at it and keep using references, my confidence shot up and my art has gotten SO much better!! I canât thank you enough!! Youâre my biggest inspiration! Have a great weekend! đđ
Update: wow guys thanks for all the likes and support! âșïž
I'm so proud of you! Remember this power is coming from you! Youre getting the results because YOU are putting in the work. đđđ
Good for you!
Yeah that's amazing! Keep up the good work! Love you! ( You should never hate!)
Good for you!!!
That's awesome!!!!
Jeez, how is she so confident in her marker strokes? Markers give me commitment issues, as soon as itâs on the paper, itâs over.
Iâd say, just do it. Put the marker where you want it and force yourself to colour the spot in. Iâm not sure what medium you use, but apply your skills in that to markers. Iâve used markers before (though I primarily paint) and it can be scary, especially with dark colours, as thereâs no going back, but if youâre really afraid of messing up a drawing, get the pastel set, because light colours tend to be less scary.
@@pianomanwithapianoplan504 I definitely agree, forcing yourself with a scary medium can really help. Markers scare me, but I've been working with them for a while now, forcing myself through it every time. My art has really improved, having confidence, even forced confidence, is such a help!
And that doesn't just relate to my marker art, practice in one medium get better in several.
Hereâs hoping people will stop referring to any brand of alcohol markers that isnât Copic as âknock-offsâ
Right!! They are genuinely good on their own :)
Same
@indie. yeah like is she just scared they might be better so calling them knock offs makes them automatically worse in her mind
âšBless this postâš
Yah! Ohuhu markers work great on their own!
Rather than the names being 'stolen,' it seems more likely that both Ohuhu and Copic were trying to match a third colour system (like the old web safe colours or Pantone).
Thank you. Copies may be a good marker but ohuhu arenât shitty markers as everyone keeps employing. âOh theyâre a good knock offâ both products are good and stand on their own
I canât be the only one that thought she was gonna design a ârival gangâ when she mentioned weelz and the gang haha
That would be fun
@@summorrart846 yeah maybe she could base them off triangles, stars and some other shape she didnât use for weelz, skoot and dex!
Yes! A rival boy "gang" or younger siblings wanting to be like them.
@@wheezybreezy4394 yesss that would be so cool
Oh my gosh, I love that idea. XD
I havenât realized how much I needed my weekly dose of Rin until I saw this video đ đâšđŠ
Samr
Same
ahh I missed you guys đ
We missed you too Rin :))
Yes!!
The lack of contrast was something I noticed too. Glad you mentioned that because I wasn't sure what to make of it, and wondered if I were being too nitpicky over it. đ I don't own alot of copics so hearing that they have colors that go even lighter sounds impressive.
Hi!
No way!
This might be really random, and most likely you wonât see this Rin, but you have helped me so so much throughout finding my art style. I used to draw âscary sticks with outfitsâ, but when I found your channel, I learned all about different guidelines I could use for proportions, how to do good shading, and how to make my drawings not look stiff. I would watch your videos every day and I think Iâve improved so much! You have inspired me to start drawing, and to continue to draw. Now I post my own videos, because I felt like sharing my art. But thank you Rin, for inspiring me to do art!!
I'm proud of you! Keep practicing!! đ
'Scary sticks' . Relatable đđđ
Same i developed my drawing skills while watching her, any tips you wanna share?
I would love to see a video like 'my art evolution' đ€§đ
The second girl looks like she would be named green tea or something like that I really like her!
hehe thanks! i really enjoyed drawer her hair
Cottagecore queen
Take a drink of water every time Waffles says âsaturatedâ
Hydration for daiiiiiiis
Gotta keep yourself saturated lol
@@finneganraines7522 love that XD
When I saw these for the first time, I admittedly thought, "I can't wait for Drawing Wiff Waffles reviews these" đđđ
gahh đ
I did the exact same thing
A shame they aren't available anywhere here in Europe! đđđ
@@DonCorgi They are now if you don't already know! Super excited, my few pastel copics dried out and didn't wanna spend 4 pound per marker again..
@@smilesxo06 Ohh thank you! I think it's only available on Amazon UK, waiting to see if the other Amazon stores will have them available.
Hey Rinn! I just picked up digital art this new year and i literally CANâT STOP!! XD itâs so much fun! Iâve been opened up to a whole new realm of possibilities
Same!
@@maddie1361 lucky :')
my stylus broke and I suck at digital art without it so ya. going back to buy a sketchbook.....
@@maddie1361 lucky
@@bilsdweeb oof... i hope you can also get a new stylus or fix your old one!
Me: doesn't really traditional draw
Rin: says that there are pastel ohuhu markers
Me: I NEED THEM
bahaha, may want to reassess that then XP
Same haha, been going through a mostly digital phase these past years!
(but I need these pastel ohuhu!)
Hi I am Stevie and I am 13 from New Zealand and in the past week I have been drawing characters and I have been getting better and better and itâs all because of that one video weâre you teacher us how to draw your characters and you broken them down into steps and I just canât thank you enough though out these past weeks I have been getting more and more art supplies I just want to say thank you. Keep. Up your amazing work Rin!!!
She has inspired me too đ
Tbh i kinda like pastelly drawings without much contrast, its really aesthetically pleasing to me
Me too
The second person she drew reminds me of Nurse Joy and I don't even know why. I think it's the hair but I also think Nurse Joy's hair is more of a hot pink. đ€
haha I don't know either XP
i think nurse joys hair was more of a bubblegum pink but i see where ur coming from :)
DEKU
When the video ended I was like: Nooooooooo I need more! You are the only thing that cures my art block!!!
WHEN THE WORLD NEEDED HER MOST!!!! đđđ
Side note: Does anyone else love her editing style?đ
Me
Yes. Fun bits but not as overdone as others do. Also good cuts to speed things up.
@@nadines.1107 I also love how her videos are always straight to the point, no long intros or anything.
Now I really want to get my markers out and draw with them!! Love the drawing by the way!!
ooo you should!! have fun!! đ
@@drawingwiffwaffles thanks! đ
Nobody:
Rin: How's that for a transition?
Rin: ~past - ehhll~
Also Rin: Is that also called roller skating? Jhhsjssjgs
Yup!
I love how she always has suiting nails for her videos
It made me happy when you made a character with âbigâ hair đ„° I have big curly/wavy hair and itâs nice to see illustrations with the same hair type
Rin: letâs see if any of them match their lids
Me: **internally sighs** ohhh if only...
I asked for ohuhu markers for Christmas because watching you use them made me want to try them (ive never liked markers) My boyfriend got me a pack and now I'm addicted đ„ș thank you for introducing me to a new product
You always make my day more brighter rin! :) You give so much positive vibes, even though your not feeling well(mentally or physically) you just make a video for us. I really appreciate that! And don't worry about people asking a face reveal, if that stresses you it's ok :) and it's ok to take a break whenever you want, we are not going anywhere are we we love you
And just remember that many people are inspired by you! Your the reason I am drawing rn and have improved a lot!
I found your video a few months back ever since then I have been subscribed and I got so inspired that I started doing art and found my passion! Art makes me happy! You make me happy as equally as art does!
I would like a face reveal if she ever wanted to, but Iâm perfectly happy if she doesnât. In fact, this is going to sound kind of weird, but I kind of like the mystery of what she looks like. I think itâs fun to imagine her as her adorable drawing of herself! đ„°
Exactly. We're here for the art, and the fun.
Omg omg omg!!!!!! Pastellllllssss. U should do a 3 marker character design with them!
that would be fun! but it would have some contrast problems. but maybe its worth a shot!
@@drawingwiffwaffles true true, hmmmm ooo! U could choose 2 from one pack and one from the other
She said: thereâs 4 more markers to swatch.
Me :you just pulled out 5 markers!
Didnât even notice that đ
shhhh đ€«
wait was one a colorless blender?
@@drawingwiffwaffles no.There were two blues I think a pink and 2 purples.thatâs what I remember
Edit: there wat 2 blues a pink a purple and a brown color
Rin uploading a new video is the highlight of everyones day
ahhh đ
Yessssssss
i actually love when my pastel art doesnt have stark contrast sometimes. i think something abt it being pastel makes me like everything being soft
It looks ok, but still wished they had more blue, blue/green and lavender options.
An interesting thing I noticed: this pack and the skin tone pack bother have a pale cherry pink - but they are different colors (this one is more peachy, the other is an actual pink). Itâs closest to Barely Beige/R19 in color, with just the hint of pink to it.
"and they might bleed, I probably should've tested this" Every artist's fear, when they finish the line art.. and the markers make the liners bleed
Nah. They can bleed all they want for me. Drawing will fade by the time I will go back to look at it.
@@ravel116 ngl that might be a cool style of art to try if you let the colors bleed together you could get a cool effect
Jokes on you I donât use line art! I just color in my sketch
Few things hit that sweet spot in my soul as when Rin tries out new markers.
I quit painting three years ago. But now I have started drawing again just by watching your video. Thank you so much for giving me new hope. â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
girl your channel is doing amazing!! iâve been watching you since the beginning, and i have seen your confidence go up, improvement, and many other things! i hope everyone has a great new year! ily!! â€ïžâšđ«đ€©
Iâm so excited for my ohuhu markers to arrive! They arenât pastel but still.
Edit: I just realised that nobody cares...... oh well
I care, congrats on your new markers! May the color be saturated and long lasting!
@@miller_niki1982 awwww thanks, I hope they last a long time other wise imma go broke đ
@@rosethxrn1844 Rinâs first set of ohuhuâs lasted around more than 2 years. Donât know if they still manufacture the markers the same way but they should last a while.
@@shweetie.nuggets7212 cool, I got them the other day and they are really good! I hope they last for 2 years
I also care Im getting some to the only thing im worried about is some dry markers but thats an easy fix.
They are so pretty! Pastel colors always remind me of Easter! â€ïžđ§Ąđđđđđ
You know it wouldnât be a waffles video with out the constant jazz hands and satisfying claps and pats which I love it warms my soul đ
Thank you Rin for the videos you post! They offer a safe place of comfort for me after a long day of work! Wishing you the best!
now i have motivation to draw with my markers again! :D
oooo i hope you do! đđđ
Yes, Do EET
Another pastel ohuhu marker review! Thank you so much Rin!
Hi sumis sketchbook!
Hiya @uwaa ;-; !
I seriously love watching you just play around with art supplies and scribble. You're so genuine and just such a joy!
Thank you so much for the review waffle!! I always trust your reviews because of how detailed and honest you are. I purchased these earlier and this was very helpful!! Thank you!!
The moment I saw these markers were released my mind immediately went to the idea of Rin doing a video on them, their marker reviews were always my favorite.
Rin: ohuhuhoohuhooo
Nobody:
Me: That sounds pretty accurate.
Your the reason I applied to art school, thanks for teaching me since I was 14 how to draw and thank you for making me so happy over the few years I have watched your channel đ„ș
I love her channel so much!!!! She always inspires me to draw and get better!!!!
I audibly gasped when i saw you posted-
This is so exciting
I canât be the only one who was waiting for this video as soon as they announced the markers
You are so good at drawing! I love how you fill your sketchbook spreads and make them look soo pretty!!đ
This just brightened my mood- lord knows I needed this
I hope you have an awesome day :)
Rin: We have four markers left
Also Rin : takes out five!

I love these! I got my daughter, 7yrs old, the basic ohuhu brush markers and she loves them but they are so so pigmented layering is kinda moot. These can layer! BTW my daughter loves your videos and wants to be an artist like you. â€ïž
I've literally just ordered both sets before watching this. It was so good to know that ordering both was the way to go. Thanks for the great video!
Hello rin! Thank you, because of watching you I got into drawing 2 years ago, thank you for being a role model to me!
You made 2020 better Rin â„ïž
It's 2021 now lol..
YAY I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VID THANK YOU I LOVE YOU WAFFLES. Your channel has been my greatest inspiration through COVID. Time to buy some pastels!
I love your artstyle SO MUCH. Like, every time I watch a video of yours I'm like dayummmmm girl!
Something I forget is ive been here for years, I didn't realize until I noticed the copic, I watched u waaayy before you even had copics, its crazy, youre the onky art CZcamsr I've watched consistently for so long
the pastel colors remind me of candy hearts!!!! ;w; delicious
The blue girl, particularly before you added line art, reminded me of a negative. Like if you did a color flip or something
I watched your video on the big pack of Ohuhu and I was just browsing Amazon and BOOM there they were đ« Ohuhu PASTEL MARKERS with BRUSH tip!!! đ« I got mine tonight and WOW they are fab! Iâm so glad that I watched your other video first because I have been swatching them on every kind of paper I have! Promarker paper makes the pens look stunning! Really good values. âđŒđšđ
I am in love with the second character you drew! The colors work really well together and the line art really makes it pop đ
Just got my first set of markers and this was SOOOO helpful ty waffles!
*I can just imagine a pastel world, soon to be created by Rin, with Pastel skies, pastel clothing, pastel nails and most Importantly,*

omg!! i just woke up but iâve been waiting for this!! i havenât watched any other videos on the markers bc i wanted yours to be the first! love you rin
I have been WAITING for this video from you!! Iâm so stoked to watch it
Just a comment about the colorless blender marker: with the pastel markers the colorless blender will be perfect to use for it's main purpose, which is blending colors out to the white (or colorless) portion of your paper! A lot of people don't know that's the reason those markers are named "colorless blenders".
I love Saturdays for 2 reasons, 1, itâs the weekend, 2, SHE POSTSđ
Edit: Was coming on CZcams to watch some Minky Mouse Clubhouse (Yes I am a child (13) ;-;) then saw she posted and was like â*gasp* :0 YAYYY! :Dâ
Watching you use markers is really making me wanna try them! đ
I'm new to using markers so I've been trying to watch how other artists use them and this has been super helpful!! thank you :)
Ooh I was waiting for this! Ive also been waiting for them to be back in stock XP đ
Rin: "I changed my mind"
Me when I try drawing hands: "Yeah, no, I changed my mind"
just wanted to say that I always really appreciate the subtitles on your videos, they're very accurate and entertaining too :D
Hello Rin, hope you're doing well. Glad to always see a new video from you. Thank you for the review.
