Kimberly : Amazing as Always!
Minute 3:24 how to make these yourself with paint you already own !!!
Saving us $$$ for the holidays, you are worth your weight in Quin Gold ;)
Ooooh what a cute compliment for artists, I'm going to have to steal that one lol. Worth your weight in Quin Gold
@@KimberlyCrick I loved your little paintings :) I am new to watercolor....how in the world would I make these myself?
**PIGMENT NOTE** Schmincke confirmed there is a typo on Haze Black and it should be PB36 Cobalt Green Turquoise not PG36 Phthalo Green noted on the tube. Each ingredient is granulating. Another tube from a previous release also had a typo (saying PBr233 vs PR233). I'll make a note on my site and update the card there. 170+ Schmincke Horadam Aquarell swatch cards, 1 year lightfast test and written review for the pro grade watercolor range can be found at www.kimcrick.com/pages/schmincke-horadam-watercolor-review-color-chart-lightfast-testing
PB36 or PG26 maybe?
@@mariram Your guess is as good as mine, I figured because they messed up a letter instead of number on my last tube it might be the same here... but they could have been careless with the number too. Last time I emailed them I got no response, please let me know if you hear anything!
I agree because if it was the phthalo it would color separate leaving the green to show.
@@mariram they confirmed pb36 and said yes they are still only using granulating colors.
@@KimberlyCrick great! Thanks a lot for finding out the truth! I will try these combinations myself and won't fall for more supergranulating colors. I previously got only 2 tubes and glad not to overbuy.
Thanks for saving me money! I made a nice Haze Pink with Potters Pink and Cerulean Blue Chromium.
Thank you for all the detailed work that you put into these reviews. Your website is a gold mine, I really appreciate it!
Ohhh, idk about this anymore. These are pretty mixes, and I personally got some ideas from them as I own separate pigments, but that’s getting old already and it feels like artificial expanding of colour range. It would be nice if they introduced new pigments either as a standalone pigment or in this supergranulating series to diversify or make more unique these new releases. I’m sure there’s a lot of people who appreciate premixed paints such as these, but I’m wary of situations where manufacturer expands colour range at the expense of already released pigments in such quantities as supergranulating series.
Can’t really blame them tho. They’re trying to increase market share. Buyers often purchase on impulse for the beauty of the mixes. I’ve been guilty of this. Also, many people don’t mix their own paints; maybe because they don’t want to dedicate the time, or they’re happy just using the premixed. And that’s ok too. It does take time to do your own exploring. Some may enjoy that, while others encounter frustration. Presently, I’m trying to be all about exploring. One aspect I enjoy about watercolours is the happy surprises. With the expense involved, though, I’m still learning to have courage! It’s too bad guilt can get in the way of progress, but that’s part of letting perfectionism go so that joy can enter. Cheers from Ottawa🇨🇦☺️
Omg that galaxy pink.. I have found a new love xD
Oh, our Queen of Pigments did it again! I saw them but there is NO information about pigments in Jackson's and neither in their website... Thanks for sharing this info and thank you soooo muuuuch for all this wonderful "recipes" of colour joy! It's funny to find out I already have most of all that pigments to make my own mixes :D Yeah! We love U! ;)
Have fun playing with all the combinations! I just love these for the inspiration. I'm definitely looking forward to mixing just about every Cobalt Blue/Teal/Turq variety I can find with Potters Pink now after liking Haze Pink and Glacier Green so much. Thanks again for always leaving me such sweet comments, I appreciate you!!! :D
This review is a work of art in itself.
Can’t wait to watch this. I was up til midnight last night trying to mix my own.
Your site is a constant help. I need to mix these colors because I am vegan and most Schmincke paints contains oxgall. I spent a day drawing up a table of the pigments in each of the supergranulating colors and realized how so few colors are heavily relied upon to make these sets and that there is a lot of overlap between them. Shocking really. I agree that with PBk11 and PB29 you can make so many of these. I'm trusting in my Daniel Smith to get me there. Thank you for the information!
Thank you so much for the mixing suggestions! I honestly wasn't that impressed when I first saw this "Haze" set, and was curious if it was easy to replicate them. On a side note... wow 3:58, I hadn't realized just how often they use PB29 in their mixtures!
Enough that I lost track and almost generally pointed at ALL the blues lol.
I’m not that surprised. To me PB29 is the quintessential granulating pigment. it is so ubiquitous in the art world, it’s so difficult to avoid it. To me, when someone says granulating, I think of PB29 and PB28 by default.
@@awatercolourist PB29 is definitely useful and common, but it feels like they are abusing it a bit because it's so cheap. They've got over 20 granulating options, including several similar blues PB28/PB74 to play with. I'm sure part of it has to be cost effectiveness and that blue in general sells really well so if they make a bunch of slightly different takes on it there's still a lot of demand :)
Omg finally!!! I saw these on eve bolts watercolor news and bought some right away but was constantly searching CZcams to see an actual review to get a first look.. thank you Kimberly for being awesome!!
Great video! Very informative as usual. Funny thing I was just editing my first video with some art supplies I got including Cobalt Azure, and mentioned how I preferred buying the single pigment tubes instead of the Super Granulating ones. I’m so glad I went down that road, this way I’m sure to be able to replicate this and any other new collection they’ll release later on. Thanks for sharing, it inspired me to try more mixes :)
Single-pigment paints are way more versatile indeed. Btw, Schmincke’s cobalt azure is my favorite cerulean version, I like it for a relatively redder shade.
Thank you so much for this video! I love the Haze Blue, and already have the Tundra Blue, so now I will try mixing in a little Raw Sienna; PY 43. 😊♥️
Good idea! Happy painting :)
*like the precision and detailed manner of your swatch cards...so much information in one glance*
Thanks for this, Kim. If they weren’t so $ here in the States I might consider them more seriously. But you’ve given us mixing suggestions, i already have a bunch of RS and DS blacks and several different potters pink so i think I’m set! Really appreciate all your hard work. 🦩🌺
I have to write a Thank YOU to you. Even to let a comment below for your work. All the best for you from Germany!
This is my ASMR lol THANK YOU
Thank you so much for this. I bought some PBk11 along with PY150 recently to add to my collection so I can play with mixtures you suggest. You’re a watercolour hero.
Thanks - I took copious notes!
Thank you so much for this video and all your hard work!! I'm not as put together so my swatching is typically done on one single sheet with lines to separate them of course and the black line to check opacity and I'll drip water back in to check what the blooms look like or the granulation...but I'm just an older lady and has been teaching myself to draw and paint...basically anything I can afford to get my hands on. Helps so much with my chronic pain from RA and many other things I don't want to bore you with. So I LOVE being able to watch beautiful art being made especially on the, more often then not, days when my body decides to not work with me. But being able to watch and learn and be inspired helps me stay in a good state of mind and not go down the rabbit hole ;) so I appreciate it very much!!
I love how detailed these cards are! Not sure my hands will work with me long enough to do it, but I'd love to try. Another artist, Kimberly Hylton does something similar but makes hers business card sized and then is able to buy those plastic binder card holders to keep them organized which I loved!! With both of these ways, as opposed to my lazy way, I LOVE being able to pick up different colors to look at right next to each other and also if you add a color you can still put it next to similar colors not just on another sheet of paper making it difficult to truly compare. I'll definitely have to work out a way to do this in a way that it won't kill my hands. But honestly, chips or pages of swatches is so beautiful I feel its a piece of art in itself. My mom wanted photos of my swatch page because she fell in love with all the boxes of color and textures. I feel the same. So fun!!
I just use W&N cotman as it's all I can afford and even then must save for a new tube when out...and even with those I love mixing the colors and watching as it moves and changes and sometimes dries beautiful, sometimes not...but always learning :) sorry for the long note...my body isn't up for much, so just get excited to watch fun, beautiful videos to think of thing to try when I get a good day :)
So thank you very much!!
I agree, swatch charts are like pieces of art and are beautiful to flip through in a binder. I use a 3-ring binder to store my cards as well. Page protector sheets are available for 2"x2" "coin" collector size, business cards, trading cards or popular photo sizes too. I like the smaller coin cards because I can fit more color swatches per page - a real help for anyone who has collected too many paints lol. You can see a picture of my cards in a binder here - cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0148/7342/8032/files/Watercolor_swatch_card_rubber_stamp_storage_organize_your_paint_art_supplies_binder.jpg?v=1615065638 (and all of my scanned swatches go on my site at www.kimcrick.com ) happy painting :D
@@KimberlyCrick thank you so much Kimberly :) I'm going to go look at both links right now!! You have so many great video's its hard to choose :) but I truly appreciate the massive efforts you put in to sharing this amazing info!! I probably already said, but I've just been teaching myself in my older age with a lot of chronic health issues which makes it hard to practice as much as I'd like....but just doing simple swatches is invigorating...even watching someone else, on these particularly bad days, is also awesome! I don't know a ton, especially all the terms, but I loved how you showed your full breakdown of what you did in each box of your swatch to cover it all. I believe you mentioned having a video that showed that more in depth, and I thought I saw you using a stamp for the lines? So hopefully when I watch that video I'll learn more because my hands give out in me very easily, so something like that would make a world of difference rather then the whole ruler, ink, ruler, ink for every tiny box. But, I'll look for it :) and the coin holders is an awesome idea as well!!
Thanks again!!!! :)
@@KimberlyCrick oh my goodness! Thank you for those links!! Your store is AMAZING!! we're in a kinda beyond rough place financially right now with my health stuff plus lack of work, like so many, but this is absolutely on my list of things I need to save for. Such good prices too! Especially those 2 for the swatches. And that I could use them for my acrylic as well...never occurred to me, I again, just made swatches and mixes on a sheet of paper but could never get enough info to remember everything. And again, being able to see similar colors side by side I think will help me a ton with my mixing which I truly enjoy, but sometimes I think something looks cool when its warm, or vice versa, to me...dumb I know...but seeing them, as dry paint, right next to each other might help. So, I need to find a way to get those 2 stamps...will help my hands SO much!! Then I could just do the fun part with the same pain. Typically I'd draw all my lines and my hands would be so stiff and cramped that it could be a week before I could actually use my hands well enough paint on them. So this would help that so much! I have a couple questions about them so I can plan what I need to save for, so I figured I should just email through your website? It would be an email with this same name. Thanks again!! Such beautiful work!!
I must say I absolutely love you swatching system.
Really nicely demonstrated! I really enjoyed this. Thanks for the review
Oh how I love granulating colors, thank you so much for this. You sure do know your paints/colors xxoo
Very helpful, thank you, Kimberly
This video dropped at a perfect time when I was peeking to see what Jackson's had going on today. These Haze colors give me Derwent Graphitint vibes and think it would be interesting to see how those compare and work with each other. Your video confirmed that I probably will purchase the Haze set in the near future, but i'll see how I handle doing some of those mixtures on my own with the pans and tubes I already have! Subscribed and thank you for this! 😌
Oh yeah these definitely have a muted Graphitint sort of vibe. Speaking of, Schmincke or DSmith offer graphite watercolor PBK10 which can be mixed with any color on your palette for making Graphitint dupes! Thank you and happy painting :)
@@KimberlyCrick cool tip for sure!! I have several blacks and love experimenting with them but I don't think I have this one! Off on a hunt for it. :D Thank you for all you do for this watercolour community!! I adore all the insights you share. It's a lot of work off camera to put these together and I agree whole heartedly you are worth 10 times your weight in quin gold!!!!
you are the best, thank you very much for sharing your experience. ♥
Haze is one of my favourite supergranulating sets from Schmincke. I love the feeling these colors give off and you can paint an entire painting with just one color. My other fav sets are the Tundra set and the Forest set. Thanks for your review!
Hi Kim! Have you seen there’s a new Schmincke supergranulating set now called Urban? I’d love to see a video from you on how to recreate the colours, you’re my favourite watercolour CZcamsr 😊
Interesting, I’ve been considering the Tundra set or a couple of the Tundra colors. They seem to speak to me the most. This video with all the different swatches together solidified that choice - even if it wasn’t your intent…LOL Thankk You!
Glad to help, I wanted to make sure to put all the swatches together for exactly that reason - to help you decide. Some of these colors are too similar to really be worth investing in the entire range, but it's hard to tell unless you see them all lined up :)
@@KimberlyCrick I’m glad I held off and didn’t buy these colors right away and waited for more swatching and commentary.
Been looking forward to another of your videos. Absolutely love the little tree scapes - think they're a great idea. Even so, I still think the swatched squares are little works of art by themselves! Oh dear, seems I'm still a paint peasant ..... But your art is great!!! Thanks!
Thank you, I appreciate your kind comment - keeps me going! I always wonder if anyone is going to like the way I go about things. You reminded me, the last time I heard the word peasant was in a fortune cookie with a typo. It said "may your peasant dreams come true" and I laughed so hard. Surely this must mean the dreams of a new tube of paint and not big stuff like a new house or car. Well, new paint is pretty exciting and enough of it sure seems to cost as much as a car lol :)
@@KimberlyCrick Wow, it baffles me that you wonder that! For what it's worth, I recommend you to basically everyone I can think of. I mention you in probably half of my comments on CZcams 🙈 You are SO very appreciated, definitely by me, and I'd bet that's true for so many others as well. I hope you will keep going, at least for as long as it brings You joy! Your way of doing things is the whole reason I love your videos ☺️
@@hannahthufvesson Thank you so much! I struggle a bit with trying to provide so much info that sometimes I think it overwhelms me and some of the people I'm giving it to lol. Then there are times I need a break from complex speech writing, but hate to disappoint anyone who may be expecting every video to be super in depth. I've struggled this year deciding if I should put more frequent videos out that don't burn me out with the effort they take. I fear no one will enjoy these types of videos with no voice over, or that no one would watch it if I just uploaded a limited palette painting session instead of a product review. I've definitely got to work on expanding the variety of content I work on so I can keep going long term. I really appreciate your kind words, it helps me a lot :)
@@KimberlyCrick I can imagine. I have ME and while I'm not making videos, I certainly Can relate to overwhelm, exhaustion and burnout. In my personal opinion, the kindest thing we can do for others is to take care of ourselves. I am prone to having high expectations on myself, also because that's what gets me excited (and I love details), and since that's my starting point I have learned that I pretty much always have to conciously choose to take the gentlest path with myself - the one that brings _My Body_ a sigh of relief or a feeling of being mischievous since I'm "shirking responsibility" (self imposed). It's usually also the same path that I feel equals "doing too little" or something along those lines, so I'm working on adjusting my perspective.
So if you ask me, I would 100% support and encourage you making videos that bring joy and ease. I would _love_ to see limited palette painting sessions from you - I want to see all the beautiful colors you have swatched for us in action ☺️
And as for what others may think, it would surprise me greatly if people wouldn't also love other types of videos from you. And after much work on the subject I have come to the personal conclusion that it is deeply okay to disappoint people. It's allowed. Our well being, our joy and what is sustainable to us is so incredibly important, and you don't owe us any specific types of videos, or, more importantly, your health.
What helps me with doing that is creating a "frame of expectations" of sorts, to prepare people. So, using your idea as an example, that might look like sharing with us that you are going to start another type of series that can accompany your product reviews, in a different format, perhaps without a voice over. Sometimes I want to tell people the reasons behind it, or my hopes and goals, and other times those are just for me.
I hope I didn't speak completely out of turn now, and just gave you a buch of advice that just felt wrong and invasive or something else bad - of so, I apologise.
I think I might be a bit overly passionate about people taking care of themselves, and my advice-giving side is strong (I'm working on it). So please just ignore this if it doesn't feel good for you!
On another note, I thought of you the other day! I've been setting up a palette and I have the Daniel Smith Manganese Blue Hue in it, and I added a little bit of Kremer's Zirconium Cerulean to it, which made it granulate even more and still keep it's vibrancy! I thought I would share, just in case you'd be inspired 😄
@@hannahthufvesson Ooooh I have Kremer Zirconium and wasn't quite happy with how matte opaque/gouache like it came off, but the granulation and color are stunning. That is suuuuchhh a good idea to mix it with DS MBHue!!! I will definitely try that. Also thank you I enjoyed your advice and it made me laugh out loud about it being "deeply okay to disappoint people". I'm going to remember that one :D
Look forward for other series 😁💖💖
Thank you for searching these and for your recommendations!
Thank u so much!! Was so curious about these. The pink one looks familiar, like one of Roman Szmal (spelling?)'s, Misty Morning or something-a-rather. Wonder if these are the last of the super granulating series.
Yeah, I wonder if they are done too - it is getting redundant! It would be good if they can branch out to including non-granulating pigments in the mix, as the color separation aspect would be so much more interesting. I love misty morning's pastel like nature, and that pink color separation is great since it has the non gran pv19 in with the cobalt teal. The Haze Pink and Glacier Green are much more muted, in case you'd like to compare those cards at once haze - cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0148/7342/8032/files/PR233_PB36_Schmincke_Horadam_Haze_Pink_swatch_card_pigment_watercolor_art_color_jacksons_exclusive_granulating.jpg?v=1637627471

Nah, looks like they are planing a volcano Set
@Nanou i own giant collection of Szmal and only a few of Shmincke, and in my use - they act totally different. All of the quartet of Szmal special violets (shadow v, shafow v ligh, misty morning and przybysz gray) look much more... Candy like (lol). But that haze pink, oooh boy, the possibility of one paint landscapes!
I believe Haze Black has a non-granulating color in it. PG36
@@madametj I wonder if there is a typo on the tube and it was meant to read PB36, as they state that every ingredient is a granulating one and all of these use the same core group of ingredients. There was another tube I got with a typo before, PR233 I think was mislabeled as PBr instead of PR for Glacier Green. I have a strong suspicion this is an error, as there is no hint of smooth inky phthalo green in this, so they would have had to use such a small amount not to flow out from other colors. I'll make a note about it and check with them.
I really want this set! The Supergranulating ones i already have have been amazing! :)
They are really beautiful, soon I'll be showing off the 3 new sets for Volcano, Desert and Shire theme too! They've finally added some warm colors, reds, yellows and vibrant greens into this sea of blues and muted colors :D
Thanks so much for the “mix it yourself” information!! All of these paints are expensive. The real plus is that I already have a few of the Schmincke colors you suggest for mixing. 😀
Thanks again for another helpful video and compiling so much info to share. I have most all the pigments to mix my own and look forward to getting back to that after the holidays. Wishing you a happy holiday season. ☺
Thank for for this great review. I love how you set the new colors in context with the rest of the other super granulating colors. And realized I like Tundra green quite a bit along with haze pink. Have a love hate relationship with Schmincke’s French ultramarine. It doesn’t play nice with Burnt Sienna fr other brands when I try to mix greys.
I keep ulta finest and french ultra on my palette so i can have easy mixing with a smooth version, or use the intensely textured and prone to separating french ultra. They’re just so different I can’t use them the same way either!
Hi Kimberly I received my package and wanted to thank you for the enclosed gift. The color is gorgeous
I'm so glad to hear everything arrived safely, thanks again! Happy painting :)
I love your videos and all the care you put into them. Thank you 😊
Great videos you make 🤩🎉❣️have bing watched them. Love your paintings as well ❤️🎨do you any turotials of how to paint too?
Thanks for this! So informative - and a real money saver for sure! I almost got sucked into buying this new set.
Thank you. I so appreciate your integrity.
So good 🙌👍🏻 thank you 🙏
Haze pink looks soooo easy to make! Thank you!
It is so cool that one of the most pretty mixtures in this release is so simple to recreate. Love these for the inspiration! I'll totally be playing with DIY mixing it and look forward to see how it mixes with non granulating colors too. Bet we can get a 3-color separation effect in wet washes :)
Time to pour my KC favorite pigment palette & start mixing. I really like all these colors but think the Hazes are my favorite.
I love this Haze Pink so much, it has joined Glacier Green as a mixing inspiration to keep in mind anytime I'm playing with Potters Pink :D
thank you for the break down of the pigments in them, very helpful 😀
That haze pink is gorgeous!
Brilliantly helpful! Thank you!
It lists 8 super granulating color sets on the back of that box. I look forward to seeing the volcano and shire sets.
I have not yet seen any announcements regarding the release dates of Volcano, Shire or Desert sets. We'll see in the future! I hope they will come up with some more unique color combinations to make the overall selection more varied.
Thank you for putting the time into making these videos. As always very informative. Have a wonderful day!
This was helpful, Kim, thanks. On a different note, have you done (or might you consider doing) a video of favorite NON-granulating pigments that would make up a good palette? I'm having a hard time finding such a thing. I know I can figure it all out with time and the use of handy databases like yours, but I'm a bit new and overwhelmed with getting going.
Definitely will be doing some videos like that! Until then you can find both gran and non recommendations on my list at www.kimcrick.com/pages/top-lightfast-watercolor-pigments
As I continue comparing my favorite pigments by brand (and by how much they fade in my 1 year lightfast test results) I'll keep posting videos about a particular color at a time. Then I add the recommendations to my top lightfast pigments list and once I've got a pretty well researched list I'll break it down in gran and non gran in a video. Happy painting :)
Ty. Excellent watch as always. Quick note about br7/y43 which might be of interest for matching the mixes. Schmincke has two br7/y43. Raw sienna (not marked as granulating) and raw umber (marked as granulating).
The Raw Sienna is just as (or lack thereof) textural as their Raw Umber, they may have just not marked it as such. There's a few pigments they don't mark as granulating, despite have minor texture. I noticed that the color more closely matches the Sienna for the DIY mixing as it is more PY43/yellow leaning. Though in general yellow color separation is improved with non to less granulating pigments paired with granulating, though in this case these pigments in any variety from any brand will do very similar things. I'm really hoping that one day they branch out into mixtures with non granulating colors so they can all more actively separate instead of clump together. To keep things simple with Haze Blue it's a shortcut to use a convenience mixture, but it's likely more accurate to tinker with all 3 single pigments to get the color ratios right. Raw Sienna will just get you there faster.
TU! 🙏🏾🌸
Amazing video! Thank you!
Thank you! I saw these on Jackson's but couldn't find any pigment info about them.
that haze pink is money💕 I am in love. ahh~
On the back of the box it mentions a Volcano, Desert, and Shire series! 😱 Also I really think the PG36 could be accurate because the box said that there are at least two granulating colors in each paint which doesn't necessarily mean all the colors will be granulating, and there were two other colors in Haze Black that were both granulating
I'm interested to see how different they manage to make the 3 sets we haven't seen yet! Everything I've read seems to indicate that they are only combining granulating colors, but I read that minimum 2 thing as a different way to say there are at least 2 ingredients in each tube (3 would be 3 granulating pigments etc.). I'm not sure if they are going a new direction with the new sets though. That would honestly be exciting if it is going to include non-granulating ones! I sent them an email, I'll let you know what I find out :)
They confirmed all granulating and it’s pb36 instead of pg36. Wish I had noticed before the video, but I’ll atleast note it in the comments and card on my site. On the bright side pg36 would provide more color separation which diy mixers may enjoy!
@@KimberlyCrick Thanks for the update. You called it!
Haze Pink is pretty cool and I will mix it, Haze blue is ok and the others are meh.
And they are planing a volcano set??
With so many unnecessary colors now it's just excessive.
I agree, it's getting crazy redundant. I'm hoping the more I mention the single pigment DIY mixing and show how similar most of the colors are it may persuade some to skip what feels more and more like a cash-grab marketing gimmick. I am incredibly disappointed that 3 of these colors didn't even have notable color separation. They don't feel special or hard to mix and I feel a bit mislead because they were advertised as "complex" and prone to displaying multiple color characteristics. I will totally be mixing Haze pink though and appreciate looking through all the colors as an inspiration guide! Happy painting :)
Thank you once again for a fabulous video clarifying many questions and helping us make up our minds which if any of these new colours would suit our needs. I have followed your advice from way back, on buying pigments and making your own mixes. Even still my twitchy mouse is tempted to toss a few of these into a virtual shopping cart. LOL I'm not going to do it but I am going to buy some of that PBk10 graphite gray to experiment with! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Nice. I was curious what you would think about this set. The only Schminke paints I have are four half-pans that one of my viewers generously sent me. The basic set of 12 is on my wish list, but I don't really need them. It would just be fun to try them. Thanks for this video!
I feel like this series is getting pretty redundant, but I really appreciate them for mixing idea inspiration. If you're going to invest in any Schmincke I highly recommend getting just a couple colors that only they make - that way they will feel more special in your collection. I didn't really care for their standard colors, since they weren't unique enough to justify the higher price vs a set like Rubens/PExcellent. I do however LOVE the rare pigment PBr33 Mahoghany Brown, PV62 Cob Vio Hue as an alternative to Ultramarine Violet and their French Ultramarine PB29 is the most textural highly granulating version of Ultra Blue I've ever seen! The color mixing potential in just those 3 continues to inspire me after playing with so many pigments. If you don't have another brand of Potters Pink PR233 (DSmith/RSzmal/Winsor/Maimeri) it's also used in some of my favorite of these Schmincke mixtures :)
@@KimberlyCrick oh, great, thank you! I'll update my wish list with those recommendations instead. This is great.
Didn't these just release on Friday? How did you get them so fast?!?? Haha but thank you for the very helpful review and comparison! :)
I happened to be shopping at Jacksons last Wednesday when it popped up as listed on their site, I think before anyone else noticed they were up for sale lol. DHL to the USA is crazy fast, they shipped out within 2 days and DHL got it here in 3 :D
@@KimberlyCrick Wow!
aha! what a great vid for a list of colors to mix grans with. for now i only have the mars black in my schmincke colors but have been mixing ultramarine blue with other colors i have on my schmincke pallet - ultramarine bl & cerulean bl is awesome but what to use it for other than a galaxy? haze pink is gorgeous with those colors. funny that i was never into the granulating colors much then saw what could be done with mars black & now i'm going crazy over the color separation mixes. thanks for sharing!
I don't like colours but waited for this kind of review. Thank you!!!
Yeah some of these colors are not very unique or beautiful. I am glad to help, I wanted to share this as soon as possible so everyone can make an informed decision before deciding to buy it or not. Thanks for stopping by :)
So helpfull
Hi Kimberly, I like your videos, so helpful in understanding watercolours. I would love your swatch stamp but you dont ship to the UK. Such a shame. thank you for your hard work.
Thanks, yes our post office prices are unreasonably high right now. It usually costs 3 to 4 times an order total just to ship internationally. For just a little stamp being about $20-30USD postage, it's too much to be liable for. Hope that one day a reasonable option will become available for small tracked packages. I'll be sure to make an announcement if that happens. Happy painting :)
Not sure how Schmincke seem to keep having misprints on their labels... And, of course, I would only reccommend buying any of these mixes if you use a LOT of any particular mix. However, with all the colours they have launched lately, they have been very open about the pigments they use which is more than you can say for another major brand. Imho the series are supposed to appeal to different artists since other brands proved that there is a market for sets with "inspiring" names. Only brand nerds would buy all sets, I guess. And you, so thank you for your public service! 🥰😘
Those colours look awesome, just as your little doodle paintings do. Will probably not get any of them though, because they are actually pretty expensive here in Germany, I don't want to add too many cobalts to my set and - as you pointed out here - they are made with their regular pigments, of which ai got a whole bunch on my palette anyway ^^'
P.S. I wonder why they call them 'haze'? That "Nebel" in the German name translates to fog, but maybe haze just sounds nicer 😅
I suppose maybe they wanted to use a word to hint at colors that could "obscure" or hide a subject, fuzzy unclear lighting, not limited to fog and just picked haze as the best word maybe? I definitely agree with mixing their regular single pigments for these, I can't see myself using these often enough to justify a whole tube of each. Haze Pink is a pretty mixture idea though :)
I'm ok with them continuing to put them out.. since they are honest about what they are and some people really love to collect them. Personally they motivated me to set up my pure pigment granulating palette and play.. not just combinations they have found but others. It actually helped my mixing skills substantially trying to work out what the combinations will to do make what I want. For example this new blue where the raw sienna comes out as a yellow separate from the blue with no green mix. Perfect for sky, it's so difficult to get that pop of yellow without coming up with either green or grey. One of my favorite self mixtures was a very subtle yet beautiful combo of titanium buff with either potters pink or cerulean blue. It reminds me of sandstone in paint form and makes a beautiful background with character of it's own but that doesn't overwhelm the main subject. My favorite thing to do with these granulating mixtures is backgrounds by far.
Agreed, great for backgrounds! They did confirm pb36 not pg36 in haze black too. Yeah there’s a lot of support for convenience mixtures, i just hope the other few sets coming will be a bit more varied.
idk why schmincke didn't put more effort into making all of the colors in each set unique. seems like consumers would be more likely to try to buy ALL of them if there weren't duplicates (basically). one of the browns you showed had a deeper masstone almost black than another one. at least that is a difference. but MAN some of them are same same same. like the differences are equivalent to just painting something out using a little more or less water or getting more granulation or masstone. sometimes i just don't understand what SCH is thinking....
Dang, missed you talking! :(
I haven’t been feeling well and this release was time sensitive. Normally I’d wait until a day i feel up for talking, even if it means only 1 video a month, but voice overs are slowing me down too much for new releases.
Aquarelinhas show.
