  • Hi everyone! This video should have come before the previous one but as I explained last week, I had to talk about my Patreon account situation so it is what it is 😅 I hope you like it nonetheless! Here I’m trying Neocolor wax pastels (some people even mix them with oil pastels) for the first time. I’ve set some timestamps so you can skip to the fun parts if you want. Have a nice day! ❤️

    Actually it's not on the colour it's the artist who knows how to draw 😍😍😍

    I have never seen these crayons used like this before. Your drawing is beautiful and watching you use these on it was delightful. You have inspired me.

    • @YolandaBlazquez
      @YolandaBlazquez  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks so much 😊 I think most artists use them differently, in a bolder way and with thicker marks

    I would have liked to have seen the finished painting. It was looking absolutely amazing. You are a very talented artist. Your drawing was so beautiful. And I enjoyed learning about the Neocolor II pastels, I had never seen an artist use them before.

    • @YolandaBlazquez
      @YolandaBlazquez  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you so much! I think they are pretty popular in mix media works but with a different approach than mine, with bolder marks

    I would like to see more portraits with them. I recommend you watch the video by Margot Hallac about the Neocolor 2's, the way she uses them seems like a good way to use them. Good job.

    Neocolor IIs are awesome! They're great for sketching, illustrations, and underpaintings. If you have the full 84 set, they're wonderful just by themselves for finished art too. Love your videos and glad to see you're trying Neocolor II now, as they complement pastels nicely. Most of the Neocolor II range is also lightfast, so the colors won't fade. If you haven't already, give the Neocolor Is (Neocolor One) a try sometime- they're water-resistant wax but can also be diluted with mineral spirits for watercolor effects, similar to using mineral spirits on color pencils. Thank you for sharing! ^-^

    • @YolandaBlazquez
      @YolandaBlazquez  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thank you! They are really very cool! I may get a few of the Neocolor ones to create some watercolor resist but for now I’ll be playing with this. I’m kinda regretting not getting a bigger set though 🙈 it’s true, they are surprisingly lightfast, I didn’t expect it

      I really enjoy using the Neocolor 1 with the Derwent blender pen, since I don't really like using the mineral spirits.

    I like these under other mediums! I like how you put them through their paces, your Art is lovely! I use watercolors and color pencils on top of these neocolor II's as pastels and they work well with the Neocolor I's for wax resist!

    • @YolandaBlazquez
      @YolandaBlazquez  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hello! I am having the Néocolor II and they are super fun to use even dry with colour pencil Prismacolor Premier (wax base) and with Tombow or Chameleons markers or alcohol markers! I don’t use them a lot as watercolor! But I could me interesting as first layering! Those are my favorite tools for my artworks mostly! 😊 from Canada 🇨🇦

    • @YolandaBlazquez

    This was a beautiful piece absolutely lovely!
    Although, when you mentioned ordering a few more colors at the end of the video I started giggling because we've all been there trying to be good and not order a huge set only to fall in love and wish we had more. 😂
    This was so relatable and now I'm dying to know what other colors you just had to have! 😂
    I love your videos and thanks for sharing your lovely art with us. But seriously what colors did you choose? 😊 I thought you did a great job picking out the ones you did to add to the set. I know a lot of artist get the 10 or 15 set to take traveling keeping the bigger set at home so at least you have a traveling tin.

    • @YolandaBlazquez
      @YolandaBlazquez  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hahaha 😂 we all find ourselves there, time and time again. I kinda wish I got the 30 set mostly for the tin but you’re right and the 15 one will be perfect to travel with 🥰 I should show the extra colors in a different video. Surprisingly I don’t feel like I need any more of them (and that’s rare!)

    I got 3 colors to try them last week and I was pleasantly surprised. They were way more creamy than I thought they would be. I thought they would be more like plastidecors but watersoluble and I found them to be more like a waxy oil pastel

    • @YolandaBlazquez
      @YolandaBlazquez  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I thought just the same! And was also comparing them with plastidecors in my mind 🤭 they are like a very fancy version of them with the added bonus of being water soluble

    And the drawing was just exquisite 😍

    Hello Yolanda Thank you for testing this out for us. In my country (Thailand), Caran d'ache are quite expensive. Making it unsuitable for buying to testing. For this video, I think I would have preferred the watercolor pencils . Because using it should be easier than this.

    • @YolandaBlazquez

      I think Caran d’Ache is pretty expensive everywhere tbh… I found them open stock for a pretty good price though. Their watercolor pencils look amazing and I’ve always been curious but I don’t see how they would be more convenient than regular watercolor, and a lot more expensive since I feel I would need a lot of pencils rather than just a few tubes of watercolor.

    What sharpener/technique do you use to get your crayons so sharp?

  • @UJB123
    @UJB123 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I have this set and I really like them. You can use them in a normal fashion like the Neocolor I, but you must remember these are not wax pastels, they are water soluble pastels. They really shine & blend beautifully with a bit of water.
    Thanks for the review! Also, I need to get a cool grey.😊

    • @YolandaBlazquez
      @YolandaBlazquez  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah, they are great ☺️ I prefer to use them without water most of the time though

  • @stephaniedragonfly5619
    @stephaniedragonfly5619 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Well, I like what you do with it. Mix wet/dry, with finesse... and the result has a very beautiful personality, perhaps much more than the oil pastel which may be too perfect (but magnificent, in your work of course ;)). But these neocolor II could clearly improve your work! I really want to see other creations you could paint with it!
    Thank you for this little overview, already :*

    • @YolandaBlazquez
      @YolandaBlazquez  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you so much! I get what you mean, at the moment I also prefer to work in this way. It’s much faster, less elaborate and less intense than with oil pastels. To get a good result with oil pastels I need to spend much more time and effort than with other mediums and I don’t always feel like it 🙈 I’m enjoying the more sketchy look as well

    You can use them over oil pastel, but just like coloured pencil they will scrape back the softer medium rather than sit on top of it.

    How do they compare to soft oil pastel like gallery? I feel like these wax crayons are easy to control and stick to paper better but they don’t lay down much like oil pastel and not easy to get a uniform layer.

    • @YolandaBlazquez
      @YolandaBlazquez  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I don’t think they are similar to oil pastels at all, only that they both offer bright colors but the application and look is very different in my opinion. And these don’t blend much if any.
