- I’m a Marker Artist, In a Marker world.... Life in Art styles, it’s Creative..
You can use Brush nibs, or even Fine ones tooooo.
Creative Nature, that’s what we inspire.
WHICH IS WORTH IT?
My two favorite Marker brands have gone head to head many times, but not like this! An extremely intense battle with ONE winner, FINALLY settling the debate of BEST MARKER.
What did you think?
Ohuhu vs Winsor and Newton, With Barbie.. Who is your winner?
Between Jazza changing his rating to put Ohuhu over Copic and ADC putting them about W&N, Ohuhu's really are doing something incredible in the market.
Yeah, sponsoring them all😂
@@Frogusgowlpad I'm not sponsored here, and I kept my affiliate links out of this video to further remove any bias. I also wasn't keeping track of the scores as I was creating the video.
@@Frogusgowlpad “if” you ever used the 3 different markers you wouldn’t have made such a silly comment.
All the things he pointed out in difference are 100% true..
So I’ve been following both these guys. I recently started doing markers myself. I did my profile pic with arteza but wasn’t that impressed overall with them. I moved to Ohuhu and have been pretty happy. But his comment about ink flow is spot on, they pour out.
Yeh paying for all there markers 😂
Props must be given to Ohuhu for putting the artist as their #1 priority and not their profit margin.
Not only did they make a quality marker to match Copic.. but they listened and delivered by supplying more colours and options.
THIS level of service and business mindset is what many lack today !
And I will go further and say, They LISTEN us. They have confirmed watching my videos and reading comments, They have been making changes based on these things.
They are truly here for the artist !!
I've been using Ohuhu from their first sets and continue to this day
They have asked me repeatedly to give them my feedback and they've listened to all of it!
Who am I?
Exactly...
They want to hear from all of the people who use their products. And they really do listen, no matter your skill level.
The new refills are a complete game changer. Especially if you use them incorrectly!
;)
Much love!
Make a mess!
It matches copic?
I’m glad it wasn’t just me imagining that ohuhu aren’t the easiest to blend. I really love mine but I do struggle a little to blend them. Great video!
Ohuhu (for me) require 4-6 tones to blend.
W&N require 2-4.
This is a huge deal for sure.
Hey so I kinda agree but from what I've tested out , to get like some smooth blends you can use the tip to tip method
Where you just let the colour of another alcohol marker seep into the previous one for a bit and use that one to fill things in and it creates a natural gradient which is really smooth
I have a preference to Prismacolor markers for years, but recently they are getting hard to come by. I've been trying to find a brand similar to them because I know how to bend with Prismacolor. I know your channel compares/contrasts different brands and haven't seen you review those yet. Is there one you can review/recommend that would be able to fit my needs? Thank you, love this channel.
I used them once before and I wasn't such a fan... But I would be more than happy to find them and make a video on them :)
@@ADCArtAttack thanks a lot. I've been trying to find other alternatives to those and that's how I came across your channel. Much appreciated.
Ohuhu hands down are the best. They also provide the better looking more vibrant colors.
I don't like Barbie, but I like you and your art.
The structure! The editing! The presentation! LOVE it, you can see the effort you’re putting in ❤️ oh and the art is ok I guess 🙄😉
It's wild seeing how many shots Anthony is taking and the subsequent post-production work.
You should do Ken from the new movie Barbie thank you❤🎉🎉😊
This is a great video! But being brand new to alcohol blending markers, I’m still looking for the right type of paper to use.
You mentioned to not use marker paper. What type of paper do you use for this video that ended up working?
Please?
Did he say 'don't use marker paper' in this video? I haven't watched it yet. What was his reason?
I use Sketch paper around 120gsm. It will be a preference for sure. I would shop around and try different types. Marker paper is absolutely NOT good for Alcohol markers and should be avoided.
The blue lighting on the hair 😍😍😍😍 one of my favourite techniques!! Also, you ARE old 😎
Oh... MY ... GAWD!! I forgot the Blue on the other side didn't i! haha
I am old!! BE NICE!
Long awaited Barbie video from you, it started as a joke and you made it real (yes i am writing this as im watching it)
Having started Barbie on stream was possibly the best idea to get you started on the video, making a "worth it" series i can definitely see going forward
Ohuhu have definitely made a name for themselfs with how they've grown, Winsor & Newton to me have barely changed 😅
But i love how Barbie turned out though, it most likely also wouldnt have happened unless we joked about
Well hello.. Barbie was amazing, right?
Thank you Eck :)
I should have cosplayed, such a missed opportunity.
Haha yes you should've, maybe next time you will 🤭
Honestly, I don’t have much of a preference on the markers, since i’m pretty new at drawing with them, but from what I’ve seen, it just depends on your style of drawing.
Also when will the next stream on your gaming channel be? I’ve missed the last couple so I’m hoping to be around for the next stream.
2nd
Hello i like you so much can you give some tips
I was summoned to your great art
I never thought I’d see the day. I can’t believe my eyes. But also, I really gotta get me some Ohuhu brush nibs.
I will never switch to the ohhh, I rather use my copics and my Windsor and newton
Winsor and Newton side is better blended but it hard to compete cuz I feel Winsor and Newton never realy update their marker. No new color, no refill etc and still more expensive.
I had a feeling that Ohuhu would win. True the makers have flaws but they overall took the advantage against Winsor and Newton to come out on top.
I have both Obuhu and Winsor and Newton, both are brilliant however as nice as Newtons feel, you get more Ohuhus markers for cheaper prices and you still get excellent results! For example I got the 60 colour pack for less the £50 in the sale, whereas I only got 12 Winsor and Newtons colours for over £20!
The pricing is so complex with W&N and I wish I knew why.
My local would supply them at £1 per pen, but other stores were £2.50+ I haven't ever found a reason. I suspect stores are inflating and that's why Ohuhu do amazing on sites like Amazon
@@ADCArtAttack W&N do have a nice brush, inks, and colours so that’s probably why!
Ohuhu gets my vote. I love my set so many colors and they blend so well. I use them in all my art now
Even compared to my Prismacolor markers set of 24, i have more variety in my ohuhu than i do those. Ohuhu has more pastels and cool/warm greys and Prismacolor just has primary and very dull colors that just get darker with the greys. Ohuhu has pastels and a more scales of muted, light, vibrant, and dark tones even when adding those greys. I love my ohuhu
I am still looking for the art marker ones to go on sale. Ohuhu also has a variety from fine tips to very large wide tipped. The fact that they now have refills make them more affordable than thier competitors.
PS marler paper sucks. It makes the ink bleed and activates the ink underneath like watercolor so blending turns splotchy. I use it for swatching only.
they used to yellow horribly, but i see no one talking about that so i wonder if its changed..
Hi
Amazing video man damm it was good 👍
You've been praising Ohuhu for at least a year though...
Great job as always! Think you should bring back 10 different styles / Art Style Swap Challenge again. Love those series!
Awesome video... You made some great points of comparison and still got your brilliant humour... What more could anyone want in a video 😊
i will say something, not specifically about this video but in general, i feel like the color stylization varies very little in your videos, even when you draw in different styles, you always paint them smoothly, realistic lighting, i don't think it's bad by any means, but i do miss some variation, and it would also help to set you apart from other content creators who do the same
I love both, worth it winner Ohuhu, but Winsor and Newton still have a lot to offer I love their skin tones I wish they’d update their markers though it would be amazing. I use both in mix and they work great together
It's always gonna be Windsor &newton for me.. the blending the real tones.. the lightfastness of the ink which is more important to pros. ( hobbyists generally aren't bothered by lightfastness ). But that said I'm in UK and Windsor & newton are our standard. The ohuhu are a great starter set to get people into markets and are in my opinion better than Copic..
I will ALWAYS place W&N ink over every marker. They are just too amazing, but I wish they showed more innovation and control over their market value. I could really swing either way but the results of this videos score swayed me to Ohuhu
Aren't all alcohol markers not lightfast?
@@guardianofkeeps1949yup, it's the nature of dye based inks that they aren't light fast
@@DieterPrivate I thought so. I had researched into this as I was using alcohol markers to stain fur of sculptures so I was really confused (and a little happy) when I read the OG comment.
@@guardianofkeeps1949 now I'm confused 🙂. You're happy alcohol markers aren't light fast?
Nice artwork keep up the good work and I love the texture ❤🎉
I still prefer copic sketch markers…I think they are a better marker in general.
I really loved how you captured Margot Robbie's likeness. You really are the best.
I tried to keep Margot while also changing the style to a more original comic character. I think I got the balance just right!
@@ADCArtAttack Well I think you did awesome.
I just bought 48 Winsor Newton markers and now I see this video😂 i dont care! WN alllll daaay
They're still the BEST quality marker! So you're fine. :)
Ohuhu not available in Northern Ireland! whaaaa.
Can you do a coloring tutorial on The Juggernaut. Also, have you tried the Jerry's Artorama alcohol markers???
I recently got the 320 ohuhu set as an early bday present and i LOVE them.
I use them in colouring in books and tend to use them quite simply with a base colour and simple shadows.
The cap colour difference can be a smidge annoying but only a minor issue to me. What made me laugh was the one pen who’s colour was ‘black brown’ but is actually a peachy beige 😂
YEP!!! That one gets me every time!! I have no idea if that's an oversight on their part. I thought it was just a faulty marker in my set
Love this comparison, used to use W&N all the time but you’re right, so difficult to get hold of for a consistent price. I really need to get some ohuhu markers to try them out - great video as always
I see this being the main issue. If a pen runs dry, I don't know if -
1. I will even find it on the market.
2. It will be a reasonable price. (though they're worth up to $3 per pen in my opinion, $5 is pushing it)
The thing that sucks is I used to be able to buy them in store until Michael's and Hobby Lobby decided to liquidate their stock and now I haven't been able to get them that way for years.
honestly they're so close, if they're both alcohol markers, you could try mixing them together in a single piece
Yet another great video! Can you please some day give us advice on whether to choose a specific set or rather a specific selection of loose pens?
Always buy a set, then buy markers according to your needs. Your preferred art will decide which pallet you require. No set will ever be suitable for you later on, only at the start.
My grandma called me Nina when I was little 😅
W&N markers are like $6 per marker where I live :(
Amazing art as usual and my opinion the better one is definitely ohuhu, personally I prefer the tones and range of the ohuhu PLUS the price tag as u said is really good for the outcome from the markers
But the Windsor and newton ones are also excellent markers (and defo better than the copics) but the range and tones just aren’t it for me personally, also the price is defo out of budget for me and a lot of artists, then again THIS IS MY OPINION (please no once come at me 😭 😂)
But as usual amazing video and love from England 🏴 peace until next time
Agreed !
I will say, W&N lack of colors is made up by the fact they blend so well, requiring a third of the markers/tones, to blend. So they 'do' in a sense have a price relative to Ohuhu based on requiring less markers for the same end goal. :)
@@ADCArtAttack that’s true although even then, ohuhu still blend to an extent just might not be good enough for prefossion artists, but an artist like me, who does it for fun and not for work the blending results I receive from ohuhu is still amazing
Cool vid. have just purchased a bundle if used letraset, and love them. a quick question with you having all the W&N do you know if the manga/chibi markers have/are duplicates in the 96 box set. Just wanted to check before buying the 96 set, Also you are not OLD, i bet i can put a decade on you at least!!!!😬
I honestly don't know unfortunately. Sorry.
Also, Letraset huh? They are the original W&N markers
@@ADCArtAttack P.s am old enough to remember the original ARTattack in the 80's on UK's ITV channel. i used to watch it whilst revising for my exams! which is probably why i got such bad grades, LOL. Love to you, Bob and the others.
Winsor and Newton is still better😊
If I was to get a pack of ohuhu with a MAX budget of £50, what set would be best for someone who likes drawing animals as their main thing? I currently only really draw in black and white (pen or pencil) with the occasional posca pen drawing.
I have 1 pack of the pro markers but nothing to blend them with and a “shading pack” of spectrum noir I got for £6. I would like to have enough colours to actually blend to try markers out properly….
I don't know what is the best but honolulu series has a 36 grayscale tone set for €33,95 and oahu series has a grayscale set for €28,95 or if you're wanting markers for color then honolulu has a few 48 marker sets that are around €34-39 depending on which set you pick. If you're okay with a bullet nib and a chisel nib over a brush nib then you can get the oahu series which has 80 markers for €40,95. The Kaala series however (what I got but I am not experienced enough to comment on them nor have the bigger sets, sorry) has their illustration tones set of 60 available for €38,95 just know unlike the other series Kaala only shows one listing which has all 4 sets in it that you just switch between viewing. Honestly most of the bigger sets have a decent selection of colors that are similar to each other if you want to blend so just in case nobody else responds to you pick what suits your preference for nibs (if any) and pick what has more colors you think you'll need for drawing animals.
You'll need to check price conversions because the website listed prices in € not £ (also make sure to select the EU warehouse on whatever listing you add to cart since I assume you're in the EU)
Hopefully someone can provide a better answer but I wanted to at least give you something if not
@@Kairi5431 Thank you for replying!
What is it about Marker paper?😠 bough some Bristol board specifically for markers. And it warped and bowed as soon as the markers touched it. Wasn't Impressed
Oh really? Bristol board used to be my favourite, I never had any issues with it... Marker paper however is awful
@@ADCArtAttack yep. It isn't from Strathmore now, different brand but I expected it to hold up a lot better than it did.
Quick question? If the barrels are the same size couldn't you just use the Ohuhu/Copic replacement nibs in the Winsor and Newton Markers if you like brush tips more .
I've never tried to insert another brands brush, however even IF it works, I don't recommend it.. The inks each use are tried and tested via their nibs flow... Changing that could have horrible effects such as over flow, drying, or crystallizing
@@ADCArtAttack would be interesting to see a test if you have some spare w&n that are getting low but you already bought replacements for. For science! 🤓 (That and it's a free video if it goes well, entertainment for us if it goes horribly)
こんにちは。あなたのプレゼンテーションありがとうございます。参考になりました。😊
why no try some arteza markers?
Another great video! I’ve had ohuhu markers in my shopping cart for months…I NEED them!
My birthday 🎉 is the 23rd
The Ohuhu Markers are so bright and vibrant that the Pro Markers look washed out in comparison.
13 min ago and early
I'd be interested to know the shelf life of Ohuhu, if you know. Due to health reasons I only use markers now and again, but would like to have a big collection for the rare occasions that I do, so shelf life is very important. A cheap pen is expensive if you have to throw it away before getting to use it :) I bought my ProMarkers in 2010, and they are still like new in 2023, would be great if Ohuhu lasts that long too :) Also, what about the smoothness of the colours? In an earlier video you did, ProMarker was very smooth, and Copic and Ohuhu was kind of spotty. Is Ohuhu still kind of speckled?
Thank you for making a video comparing these two markers and sharing what you have learned :)
Before I hear your decision.
Personally for clothing-wise I think the ohuhu markers do the best, perfect for like comic book characters.
But I think the skin tones are a little too dark for ohuhu.
Where the winsor & Newton (I hope I'm saying that right) looks much more appealing for skin tones.
So I would use the expensive markers for skin and hair and the cheaper markers for clothes and props.
Who says he can't use both for their primary focus on one canvas 😁
Edit: I thought you were going to go with the expensive markers. I understand where you're coming from I say they're both good.
But for me. Cheap Wins
I’m sorry ADC, but imo the w&n decreased saturation just makes Barbie look kinda dead 😅 given that and the consistent $1 per marker; I definitely agree that the Ohuhus have finally become top tier cheap alcohol marker brand 😊💖
Nice comparison
FYI, W&N are usually fairly easy to come across in the UK. Presumably as they are a niche company based in England, they're pretty available here, but not really as easy to find elsewhere due to budget constraints. I think cost-wise, they seem to be roughly the same over here too, but I'm not 100% sure on that.
Only one question. What is the difference between searching for the color you want on an actual swatch of that exact marker vs. "pretty much" the same color of a cap?
I'd rather make the choice knowing what the actual marker is without worry about the manufacturer's variables in ink pigment load.
Just a personal choice.
Also, you get to make sure that all of your new markers are nice and wet.
Nothing like grabbing a marker that is dead, or well on its way. Perhaps a yellow marker?
Again, personal opinion.
Much love and respect!
Great video man! Ohuhu looked better to me. Especially with the subject matter being Barbie. The brighter colors won for me.
Are these new series?
So basically... if we could get Winsor and Neuton to make the ink formula to the same range as Ohuhu, put it in the Ohuhu casing, availability, price, and brush nib, we would basically have the perfect alcohol marker. In my opinion, at least. I never had much of a problem with the Ohuhu inks and have tried Winsor and Neuton before, but I don't think I gave them a fair shot. Mostly because I only had a skin tone pack and to be honest, I absolutely hated the brush. Copic and W&N have the same brush issue in my opinion. Firmer nibs allow me to feel the resistence of the paper better and have better control over where I'm placing the color. Also makes me more confident in their ability to hold their shape and not fray over time.
Edit: You did get me hooked on Winsor and Neuton fineliners, though.
Playing catch up on my subs slowly. I love the look of both sides. it's like cartoon Barbie vs Barbie doll. They both look great and I wouldn't be able to pick a pref based on Ohuhu being the only marker I've had. That said, I do wonder, what is your preference in paper for these markers. I have tried both marker paper and the Neena cardstock, and of course whatever paper the books I have use.
As opposed to marker paper, what kind of paper do you actually use preferably? You've probably already answered this hundreds of times. 😅 Sorry. 😬
I don't care if you are repeating content! I am just glad that you are creating it! I love your art and you always make me smile! Thank you for another great video!
It boils down to whether any marker is worth 5 times more than the Ohuru, the answer is so far no. And THAT price discrepancy is at the upper range. You have to ask yours self if the blend-ability advantage of the more expensive marker is offset by the fact that Ohuru has more colors. In other words if it takes 5 $1 markers to do the same work as 2 $5 markers aren't you still ahead price wise?
I was wondering.... I have tried to buy Ohuhu's in a shop here in the Netherlands, but was told that quite a number of the inks they use are not allowed in the EU and thus these specific colors cannot be sold by brick and mortar shops (and I guess also not by online shops in the EU). Do you know if this is true? I hear a lot of enthousiastic reviews, but never heard this specific point coming up...
Hi ADC, just wanted to say that you are the only reason I started art and have improved so much. Just wanted to see if you or someone can give me an amazing link to a good dragon ball colouring book. Keep up the good work ❤❤❤❤
The skin color on the promarkers looks amazing!!! I have Ohuhus and love them! But I'm a noob! Even though I've had them for a couple of years now, i don't use them often enouh to actually get any better with them lol
I liked the Ohuhu side better for this particular artwork too. The vibrancy just fit Barbie better. Great work!
You mentioned that the blending needs more mid markers for Ohuhu - maybe you could do a video where you use the same number of markers across brands for comparison? So that evens the playing field to show blendabilty more objectively.
Ohuhus ars great, im also stomed that they now offer REFILLS!!!
What paper did you end up using after you rejected the marker paper? What paper would you recommend with alcohol markers?
I have both but my Windsor & Newton set is significantly smaller. I don't see a reason to get more because they are pricey ... unless I go overseas again.
I like the Ohuhu. I think it's a good idea to have a mix of both because they have different tones.
Can you please do a cheap vs expensive video with the BIC Kids Evolution Stripes Colouring Pencils
Yo Adc could you draw Miles Morales in 10 different styles? And one of the styles NEEDS to be DC.
I ended getting a set of Ohuhu a few yrs ago because of a video you made with them. I was very pleased by the results and the price.
Maybe it’s me, but the Windsor/Newton side looks washed out
you said ohuhu's to be very widely available while pro/brushmarkers aren't, somehow in my country i cannot find ohuhus anywhere, but W&N markers are sold in almost every store that sells art supplies and they were i think the first markers to be sold here (maybe some limited sets of copics before them)
Ohuhu have been a great investment for my oldest. He loves the control of the nib and color saturation. And as I love them for my coloring books. And the fact they have refills now is amazing !
OHUHU ARE THE BEST
Amazinggg
Love this series
Great video 🎉
Great artwork ! Thank you !
ADC! Not sure why your videos haven't been being recommended to me! I have a lot to catch up on 😅
You said marker paper is terrible. For beginners which paper do you recommend?
I have some of the windsor newtons markers but i prefer the bullet/chisel ones im not a fan of the brush its like ridiculous how soft they are. After a few uses they fray. I dont have that problem with copics and ohuhus.
Which ohuhu marker set do you recommend for people who tried Copic and W&N?
@ADCArtAttack, can you mix marker brands?
I've been actually wanting to get ohuhu markers for a while now for school.
So this was the video where Ohuhu unseated W&N as your top marker. Interesting!
Can you do more dragon ball drawrings but with Charmeleon vs Ohuhu markers
do cheap vs cheap for Shuttle Art Alcohol markers vs Ohuhu Alcohol markers please
I’ve been asking for this for a while now but I will ask again you should do a style swap maybe pikachu or something else but it’s also a one colour challenge I would love to see that
i thihk it ultimately comes down to prefernce of skin saturation.... who woh?
I will stick with my copic. I can easily get them locally. They have a massive amount of colors to choose from and are 100% accurate to their cap color. Copic has been around for so long and has always been made to the highest quality possible.
It kinda just depends on your perspective but I can’t choose though lol
That first hand looks so realistic!
Ohuhu been paying all the art TH-camrs! I’m not mad at it
