Nice video, thank you! I love the Neocolors II but I don't want to use them as wax pastels, it seems like I'm wasting them so that's why I have ordered the Neocolors I, so that I can really use them dry without guilt.
Haha, I also had no idea which one to buy, but I wanted to try them with water so I decided on Neocolors II. They actually last a very long time so I never felt guilty about using them without water xD
This is such an informative video!! I just got my neocolor 2s as a gift and this video has really helped and inspired me too!! Thank you for sharing your experience and creativity ❤😂🎉
Thank you for sharing your techniques. Most tutorials for Neocolor ii are too basic. I have two questions before jumping into the rabbit hole: 1. How do you create light values? Adding more water or laying down fewer pigments? 2. How do you mix a color you don't have e.g. green? Do you lay down yellow and blue onto the paper, then use water to blend?
Hi, sorry about the late response 😅 I'm happy you like the tutorial! 1. You can also try to just take a little bit of pigment with a wet brush directly from the pastel, or put some pigment on the palette and then mix it with water, before putting it on paper. When the pencil is put directly on paper there is no much more you can do, the pigment is quite strong and there is only a limited option to create lighter value. 2. I'm trying to use a limited color palette. It helps with the overall color consistency on the drawing. I have most shades that I use and I don't mix them that much. But if you need to, my favorite way is to layer them in thin layers and blend with the last layer, for example with white pastel or any other light colors. Or put few different thin layers and then mix them with water like you said 😊
I love your sketchbook. Beautiful everyday art! Nice ideas! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much! 🥰❤️

Neocolors II are awesome and I plan to purchase more single colors this weekend. Just to let you know, those rocks look cool.
Thanks a lot! Have fun with them 😊😊
