  • Could This Be The Paper, Seeing Essence Colored Pencils Clip, Beat Layering Coloured Pencils
    I think I have found the paper, well, actually when I say I have discovered the paper, what I really mean is; one of you awesome people mentioned in the comments section which paper you thought it was. @Kassakassa90 was the first comment I seen suggesting the paper that I have used in this video.
    Speed Drawing Video - • Seeing Essence Botanic...
    CZcams Video Review - • Review of Seeing Essen...
    Written Review - bit.ly/42nMcUT
    Artwork Still Images - bit.ly/3OorpdS
    I would also like to say that a lot of you suggested other papers, which I did try and test the papers I had in my collection, but this was the paper I felt was the closest to the original clip.
    I know this is a bit overkill, the amount of testing etc I have done to establish whether or not a colored pencil can layer as well as a 10 second clip on social media declares. However, I wanted to try and pin point exactly what was going on. After reading the comments in my original review of the Seeing Essence Colored Pencils, it was clear a lot of other people seen the exact same clip and were just as intrigued. However, as a reviewer, it is my job to purchase the product and test the legitimacy of said clip so that you guys know exactly what you are getting when you hand over your hard earned money.
    If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask and leave them in the comment section. I absolutely love the interaction we all have in the comments section and as I have said many times before, I firmly believe that it is the comment section that makes my content interesting and valuable to other viewers.
    Also, I apologise that the video is not 1080p, When I added the Mobile Phone scale clips, the video editing software struggle with that scale and the scale of the original video. I am sure there is a simple enough way around it, but not being the brightest individual in the room never mind tech savvy, I messed up. I hope the quality is okay for this short video, short by my standards lol.

    I know so many CZcams Content creators can on occasions some across as fake when they say how much their followers mean to them. Of course this is the case with some of them, but since becoming welcomed and embraced by this wonderful art community, I hand on heart can tell you that so many creators within this community mean exactly what they say. There seems to be a love and understanding among people of the art community that is really quite extraordinary.
    Prior to becoming an art content creator on CZcams, my life was at a very bleak stage, I had served 13 years in the British Army and after a serious spinal injury rendering me disabled, I was medically retired. My life spiralled out of control, I didn't want to be here, I had my wonderful wife and children to provide for and wasn't able to do this, nor was I able to be a soldier. On advice from my eldest daughter, I picked up and started to use some of her art supplies; and the rest, as they say, was history.
    Starting this channel and becoming part of this wonderful community helped me to build my life back up to where I wanted it to be. Here I am almost 9 years into my CZcams journey, trying to deliver accurate, honest and transparent reviews on the expensive and not so expensive art supplies we all love to and need to use. However, the love and support I have received from this community over those years has been heartwarming and at times emotionally overwhelming, simply due to the fact I have never experienced such warmth from those outside my family. I truly feel blessed and fortunate beyond words can describe.
    Thank you all so much from the bottom of my heart for your warmth, love and support.

    So I’m primarily a graphite artist. I work primarily on cold and hot pressed cotton watercolor paper. While I Have never worked with or been interested in color pencils but I just saw the clip you’re talking about a few minutes ago and realized that the texture is almost identical to the texture I get with graphite. Which is the only reason it peeked my interest and lead me here. So I’m thinking that Perhaps you should try these pencils with cold pressed cotton water color paper. If you haven’t already idk I just got here lol

      Thank you so much, I always try to make sure I do right by everyone, helping everyone get the correct information is so important to me and a few other reviewers like me. My two daughters and Son are adjusting as well as can be expected. My eldest daughter Niamh is always busy, she lives with her boyfriend and they make a fantastic couple. My Son Jude is at University Studying Aerospace Engineering and I feel so sorry for him because his mates don’t have to work cause their parents help finance them but we just can’t do that. We brought the kids up to work hard so I wouldn’t want him not working part time even if we could help him, but I think k keeping busy is helping him with his Grandad and he was so close to my Dad. Our youngest daughter Amelia is finding it very difficult. She was the one bullied at school and my Dad would always be on the phone to her telling her how amazing she was and that the bullies were just jealous.
      I know we all go through it, but I just hurts. Thank you so much for asking I really appreciate it

      ​@TheArtGearGuide My Dad died in 1999. Not a day goes by without me thinking about my Dad. Now x years later , the hurt is less , but nevertheless still there under the surface. However the daft things he did in life get through. Like the time at Spadeadam, where he and one of the sparkles pulled one of the funniest stunts ever!! Your wee lassie, the one who was/ is bullied at school? Well your Dad is there in the background watching over her. One day her bullies will have to face what they have done. My son, who may well be the same age as you , was bullied. Last day of school? Every single person? Apologised to him. ( it's a story not for a YT comment as to how he brought it about). I hope the hurt eases for you and all the good comes to the fore.

    Thank you for this video. The problem that I had with that video was those people used it for a false commercial. They sell Artx colored pencils and I watched your video reviewing them and I was like ‘ok.. that don’t look like the colored pencils they used in the video..’
    Then I watched more review videos, and the more I watched the more I confused with that commercial.😅
    So yes.. I was very curious about the paper, that might have given that amazing colors instead of the colored pencils themselves.

Thank you for sharing your exhaustive efforts with these pencils and associated videos (short & long) You Sir are appreciated and I have found your reviews truly informative and accurate! I have plenty of pencil choices and I have no need to add this brand to my supply list. I have a couple of Artist grade sets and a couple of budget choices, I have recommended the Cezanne as well as the square Brutfuner pencils for budget brand choices. NowI know that there are more choices available than anyone needs to own!

    I bought her coloring book, and the paper she used was not sandpaper, but fine-grained paper, specially made for her illustrations. The techniques she uses are not the latest, but rather classical sketching, the method of Charles Bargue sketching. Sharpen the pencil to a very sharp point and gently trace the volume bit by bit on the paper to get a very smooth effect. She simplified Charles Bargue's method, and the result is the tik tok we see. I personally discovered that it takes a lot of patience and skill to be as good as her. The above content uses automatic translation. English is not my native language.

    I've watched that clip on your site and you can tell it's edited. There is no layering shown, you see the pencil move in a line and the pigment lays down too easily and flat. I'm not saying that the drawing is digital it isn't, but I do think the lines they draw are digital, just look at how slick the line creation is. Also, the comments state which paper they use, which you also mentioned in the video.

    • @TheArtGearGuide
      @TheArtGearGuide  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Thing is regarding the paper, the clip has been shared hundreds of times, nobody knows who the original poster is or the artist. So whoever mentioned the paper is more than likely guessing just like the rest of us are, besides the paper everyone claims it to be is a hot pressed Watercolor paper, I know there are many different brands of hot pressed Watercolor paper, but I can’t imagine them being that different.
      I think you’re right regarding the clip, there is something just not right about the clip that I can’t put my finger on it.
