I Use Prismacolor for Skintone and as a base color and i use Polychromos for the Details
Prismacolor + Polychromos = POWERFUL
Hi Mark Jairon Viray and welcome to the channel. Thank you for your kind words and feedback. Exactly - i do the same and I also add in a little Luminance for good measure. (I have a clip on this exact topic coming out tomorrow) - I hope to see you again on the channel soon stay safe🎨 👍🏻👩🏻🎨
@@SpectrumArtStudio sadly i cant afford luminance 😂
Hi Mark Jairon Viray I don't have a whole set of FC or luminance. I have been building them from open stock as and when I need them and actually this works out cheaper than buying a whole set. It also means you get the colours you need eg. i use a lot of white and skin tones so I can replace these as needed. There are quite a few places that sell them open stock now🎨 👍🏻👩🏻🎨
@@SpectrumArtStudio Thank you so much for responding i appreciate your efforts i already subbed looking forward for your 1000th subs
Very appreciable content! I've often wondered why artists were specifying their favorite pencils and now can understand they have different functions. Thanks, Sprectrum, for your insights! 👍🌟😊
Do you prefer Faber Castell or Prismacolor or do you have any questions about these brands ? Let me know in the comments 😀
I bought the polychromos first . Now getting the prismcolor ones. Bit at a time
@@moonspiritartbycindyhill1084 Hi Moonspiritart I now wish I had done this with the Prismacolors. I am gradually building up my collection of Polychromos and Caran D'Ache Luminance but buying colours that I know I will use. Good Luck with your art journey and I look forward to seeing you on the channel soon 🎨 👩🏻🎨 👍🏻
I had polychromos, but now I ordered prismacolors and I willl test who is better:)
@@rugilelia46 Please let me know what you think - i would be interested to get your opinion - one is not necessarily better than the other they both have different qualities. FC is a hard pencil so is good for details whereas prismas are a wax based based pencil and are great for blending large areas - i hope you enjoy using your pencils 👩🏻🎨
Black Friday sales are really good to get both brands discounted makes getting the full sets more achievable
Great recommendation !!!
beautiful painting my friend,.
you are a talented artist, loved your artworks! Thanks for sharing 🌹💐👍
Hi John ArtGallery and welcome to the channel. Thank you for your kind words and feedback. I hope to see you again on the channel soon stay safe🎨 👍🏻👩🏻🎨
Wonderful video! It deserves way more likes!
@BGBPW Thank You for you kind words much appreciated !!!
I just can’t settle on what set to buy. I have a small set of Derwent lightfast wich I love but I’m not sure if they’re enough for detail and soft enough for larger areas…
I own a few Ploychromos and really like them and a bigger set of Prisma wich don’t work well for my art ( Ido children book illustrations mostly). I’m between Luminance, Polys and lightfast. But I can only buy one larger and one medium set, not all three. I wonder what combinations would be best….
Hi Natalie Juarez and welcome to the channel. i haven't used Derwent lightfast much but i would go for the luminance for the larger areas and polychromos for the details. I bought both these brands open stock and found this works well as there are certain colours that I run out of frequently. I hope to see you again on the channel soon stay safe🎨 👍🏻👩🏻🎨
Thank you. Very helpful and easy to understand.
Very good information. First time viewer. Thinking about getting back into drawing.
Hi Diane Welcome to the channel - we have plenty of tutorials aimed at drawing skills particularly those at the beginning of their journey and also those who would like to improve their use of colour pencils. I would like to recommend the colour pencil playlist which may help you

@SpectrumArtStudio I'm a graphite artist. Always been intimidated bu working in color. I have a old Berol Prismacolor set from 1983 but can't bring myself to use it. One of the few things I have from when I was a kid.
Very beautiful colors🤩💕

Good morning Joanna, thank you for your message. I have double checked as I ordered some last week and they are definitely there. i have included a link to one though when you go in you will have to type in your required colour. I hope this helps and good luck SAA 🎨 👩🏻🎨 👍🏻

Very beautiful colors
Hi Sanook Art DIY Thank you for your kind words🌈✨🌈✨ 🌈✨
So which one should I buy?
Hi Blossom Bunny - thank You for your message - firstly it depends on what type of work you do - If your work has a lot of detail in it, I would certainly go for the Polychromos as they keep their point for a longer period of time. The prismacolors are opaque and give vibrant colours and are really good for blending. Because I like both of these brands and caran d'ache but can't but buy all 3 sets, I have started to buy open stock of the colours I need, so I would recommend if you are not sure which brand you want to go for, to buy either a few colours open stock of the colours that you will use or a 12 set. So to begin with, I would buy a few of each and experiment with them to see which one is best for you. Good Luck 🎨 👩🏻🎨 👍🏻
Brilliant video

716 code faber castell red plesase ?
Hi @tuliodelafuente do you mean Pantone 716? Thank you for watching 😀
Faber Castell for sure
Hi Diego Alvarado and welcome to the channel. I personally think they both have their pros and cons but have to admit I have been using FC more recently have been using them on top of watercolour work. I hope to see you again on the channel soon. 🎨 👍🏻👩🏻🎨
@@SpectrumArtStudio Hi thanks for the welcome. Sure I am watching all your videos they all are amazing!. I recently try the junior version of Prismacolor and I love that they have a hard formulation and are less pigmented. They have a 4 mm thickness so I prefer to make them sharp with a blade after the mechanical sharpener. Thanks for the content!
wooow nice one

Hi Art dinh (dạy vẽ - luyện thi vẽ) Thank You for taking the time to watch. I really appreciate it - Stay safe and have a Good Day✨🌈 ✨
Fery nice...
Hi -thank you for your feedback - it is much appreciated - look forward to seeing you on the channel soon 🎨
You shouldn't recommend the faber castell anniversary edition. These pencils aren't open stock and are completely different to the "real" polychromos. They got different names and different colors. You can't buy them as single pencils and therefore you can't restock them. Nothing for real artists.
Hi @zzador, thanks for watching and for feedback - when I made this video 2 years ago, the tin was cheaper than tin of polychromos and a way of trying out before committing to the larger box - just trying to find ways to help those on a budget as not everyone can afford the outlay of the complete set. TBH the tin has gone up in price now so would just recommend buying open stock of colours that are desired but I thank you for your feedback that is helpful and hope that you will keep tuned for future content👩🏻🎨.✨🎨
Why do u have so less subs 😭😭!!!
Hi Cartoon Protector, welcome to the channel - the answer is 1) I am an art channel (ie not a gaming or meme channel) 2) I only started the channel in September 2020 so need a bit of time for it to grow 'It's a marathon, not a sprint' - If you know anyone that you think would benefit from the content on my channel then please share and I look forward to welcoming you back soon 🎨 👩🏻🎨 👍🏻
