    I'm not sure if you all saw the comment that was posted 17 mins ago from some very RUDE person or not but I reported the comment as harassment and bullying of Pamela!! The comment was highly unnecessary and was just down right hateful! If you don't like the video that she has taken her time, energy, and money to film, edit, review, and post then MOVE ON!! You don't have to leave such hateful comments. You WILL BE REPORTED because you may or may not know but she has a very strong following of very dedicated followers and Facebook friends who will not stand for such ignorance!! Move along if you aren't interested in the content of her videos! Thank you and have a splendidly blessed day!

    UPDATE: I spoke with my contact at the company are THEY ARE WAX-BASED PENCILS. There was a mistake on the Amazon listing and it will be corrected.
    I mentioned in the video that these are a wax-based pencil because this is what I was told by my contact from the Arrtx company when I asked. The Amazon listing does state that these are oil-based. I have a message out to my contact at the company to get clarifications on this. Either way, they are great pencils as you can see after I put these through all my standard tests. I just need to spend some time to sit down and color with them so I'll update soon. Happy coloring everyone!

    • @jeanblythe1595

      I hope these are wax, as oil pencils can give me problems sometimes from the smell. Did these have a chemical smell more than a wax set would usually have? The colors are beautiful, and you did such a good job of showing these to their best. If they don't have that oil smell (vs. wax non-smell), I am interested in purchasing these because I really trust your judgment and how you let the pencils sell themselves. Thank you so much!!!

    • @rowena_nmart
      @rowena_nmart Před 2 lety

      I've got them for a few years and also ordered Arrtx pencils, so I can get you some comparison here when they arrive (from Aliexpress it will be a month I think). :) To be honest, I really felt the need to order new pencils because I'm not much satisfied with Marco Raffine. I got them because they were super cheap but my hand hurts from burnishing these, also when I sharp them to the nice point, they tend to break. I can't say anything about Arrtx now but if I could compare Marco Raffine to Koh-i-noor Progresso which I have (they are from good brand so that's why I mentioned them), M. R. also have a bit poor pigmentation. First I thought it is good but only when I tried Koh-i-noors (or Art Creation by Talens), I've found out how should the good pigmentation perform. Ok, I love to work with what I already have but it is more enjoyable to work with something what doesn't cause me a wrist pain. :) I can't wait what differencies I'll notice compared to Arrtx.

    Since you like Prismacolor so much, you might want to try vintage Berol Prismacolors if you haven't. I got my hands on some and they are like Prismacolor Premier...but better! You can tell just by holding the pencil and looking at it that it's a sturdier pencil, and I find it to be generally better quality all around. That's not to say I think the Premiers are bad, and I don't want to act like the Berols are like 100x better, but I do find them to be a better pencil and worth looking into if you're REALLY into the Prismacolor experience.

      Welcome to my channel. I wouldn't say they are better, but they are different. They are both good pencils. If you are looking for more colors, then you may prefer the Brutfuner square since you do get more colors. If you want to go with Arrtx, I would wait a month because there is a new set with more colors coming very soon.

    Because of the poor quality of Prismacolor pencils I was looking for a substitute. I think I've found it.

    A "dupe", a much over used term for colored pencils, would mean exactly like, these are not exactly like Prismacolors. Close, yes, but exact, no.
