- I mean hey, at least you get A LOT of supplies right....? - Just a shame they don't work!!
This was a trip down memory lane, but not a good one, a trip filled with bumps and problems. I don't suggest you buy these, but maybe you can convince me otherwise?
I hope you had a lovely day here watching me go through Pain and a ridiculously large amount of supplies.
I also hope that the new format of content is enjoyable for you. My apologies that videos are slightly longer.

"Not everyone has a lot of money" - This is a valid point and I'd like to address it.
The point of this video was NOT that. As I mentioned at the end, There are MANY alternatives to what is featured in these kits, It may be very possible to get almost the entirety of this set in alternative products of higher (more useful) quality.
42 BAD markers are not equal to 7 Alcohol Markers. Pencils that DON'T WORK, are of no use to anyone.
These kits are highly priced, packed full of quantity over quality. My channel is built on CHEAP alternatives, Perhaps one day I'll compile a 'Christmas list' to match the price of this Kit and help you make better decisions.
All I want is for EVERYONE to enjoy art and get the best they can within their budgets.
If I can advise you on how you can save money I ALWAYS will. I apologize for not including a segment like this in today's video, It would have been the perfect placement.
Definitely sounds like a great opportunity for another video, my guy. Show the naysayers what you’re all about here. Maybe even a video directed at what art supplies are best for getting kids started or encouraging their talents.
Yes a Christmas list of cheaper alternatives is a great idea for a video! I’m sure you know of some I wouldn’t even think of for my kids (or myself!).
Agreed!! You can buy cheap supplies that work and are a great starting point, but unfortunately these days, sets like this are made to look good, therefore the money spent making them goes more towards presentation, so basically you are buying the case. The same amount of money could buy great supplies, but won't look as nice
I agree with your point on drawing pencils. Well, most of the time. There are some really horrible pencils out there. But a good pencil doesn't have to be expensive. A lot of people insist on expensive erasers too, and that's not necessary either - in fact, my old teacher told me that the cheap and nasty basic white erasers do just fine.
Given most professional grade materials are stupidly expensive, I'd definitely like to see the 'Christmas list' as a follow-up to this video!
There’s nothing like the right equipment. It makes all the difference. I’d rather get my children 10 good colored pencils than 50 crappy ones. It makes an enormous difference in how you are able to actually accomplish an activity and how enjoyable it is. I think your point is spot on.
The problem with the kit is there mostly cheap fillers then pigments in the art supplies. The box is the only thing that's useful, just take out the cheap art supplies, make some adjustments and put in the good ones.
I like your thinking!
@@SilverHyenaTV Thank you
I have a art box but not with 2 more boxes and it doesn’t have markers and really thankful I don’t have them and the paint is on water color pad. But the box is really cool. You can costumize it
What do you consider cheap art supplies?
That's a amazing idea
I’ve never used oil paint before but I do know that generally you need some sort of paint thinner like turpentine or linseed oil to thin it out and clean the brush. There is such thing as water soluble oil paints that you don’t need paint thinner for but most oil paints are incompatible with water. I also find it weird to have oil paint in a kids set because even if the patio themselves aren’t toxic the mediums needed to mix them and clean the brushes are toxic.
Whilst that used to be true, you can now get non-toxic versions of turps to clean/thin oil paints/brushes - citrus solvent. They even now make water soluble oil paints (it hurts me to type that out.. I mean, really?) but it takes some "googling" to find it and I agree that most people, particularly those buying these kits, probably wouldn't know it or even know to look for it.
Ahaha I use water-miscible oils (Cobra mostly) and you still need a thinner/cleaner to clean build-up off of your brushes, but! it is hell of a good fun to use and much easier than trad.oils XD. I did have to stop using it for a while because even though you can use turps alternatives etc. it still gives off fumes. Oil paint bars/sticks are a great alternative to avoid it all ^^.
These sets made me avoid pens, pastels and crayons for years lmao. Trauma flashbacks
I think also you don't just put oil paint on paper. You have to prepare a canvas first, or the only time I saw an artist using oil paint in a sketchbook they first painted the paper with Gesso and let it dry
Dude… you just made me AND my wife feel soooo much better!!! I always thought I couldn’t do art… now I know why! 😂 my mom always got dollar store stuff when I was a kid… and it would always come out like “Bob”…. Now I know I COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER!!!! Ugh thank you ADC.
THIS is exactly the point many need to read. So many feel like they're not good enough, when in reality it's the products they use.
I'm glad you feel better about it now :) thank youu!!
@@ADCArtAttack 😊
Pin-worthy comment right there.
I'm sorry it took so long for the "epiphany", but I'm glad it got there
@@667hodge that's really not helpful though.
@@667hodge I’ve seen your art…. Sit the hell down, no one was talking to you! Lmao that was for regular humans, not machines! Lol great work!!! I think ADC Needs to see that!!!
You are supposed to keep the clear part on the sharpener to keep the trash in there and then you can empty it over your trashcan
I saw that as soon as he did it.
I mean.. he did notice. Later 😅
This is much nicer than the plastic case of junk I had as a kid. I would've been ecstatic for this.
Same I was looking for this comment lol😂
Same, especially for those brushes. I got stuck with those awful bristle things 😂
The box is really cool ! Just gotta replace all the junk supplies inside to make it really worth something.
I had something similar, but it was a single-fold all-plastic... thing.
I too had the plastic thing.... I avoided "looking" at this. So I wasn't aware of its contents, it really surprised me to see a 'wooden' box.
Sir, YOU are the reason I keep just having fun with art and have stopped trying to be "perfect" and just be me. I needed the humor of this today. You are my favorite art TH-camr.
“Why am I so excited by hinges?” This is the kind of humor that’s gonna get me through the semester 😂
I have NO idea why I was so happy to see them haha. Genuinely surprised me
I feel like we just watched Anthony have a total mental breakdown with these supplies. "What colors are penguins? NOT PENGUINS!!" I hope you recover from this experience quickly. Ooof.
(It was, however, quite fun to watch! I know, schadenfreude).
My mistake was spending 4 hours recording that haha. I was becoming disconnected
@@ADCArtAttackI think your mistake was trying that set out in the first place!
so with oils you never put them with water because because oil and water don't go together instead you use oil paint thinners and mediums to clean and thin down the oil paint. And that set was crazy not to include some oil supplies with it. But i love that you were open and wern't afraid to try them!!!!!!! i hope to see you use oils again in the future but i recommend a brand like arteza oil paint or windsor and newton for good oil paint, by the way they do make water mixable oils which you can paint with water if you'd like to try them!!😃😃 loved what you created with the art set btw!!!!!!
It’s illegal to give oil mediums to kids as most of them can kill or mess with your brain from what I’ve researched (including from inhaling it!)
"It seems like i make nothing but bad decisions" -- Most relatable artist on TH-cam. Thank you for the video
"ducks are people too"
I have ADD, and I feel seen 😊 I loved the chaotic fun energy! And yes this kit made my eye twitch, it looks good but the quality is shameful. As an artist myself, the feel, the texture, and the pigment is so important. But I had one of the "kits for kids" as a kid as well and probably is the reason why I'm so picky 😂. Keep rocking being you and the art 🎨.
I received almost the exact same kit from my family 2 years ago, and Oh My God, I'm soooooo glad you've reviewed it 😅! What a struggle on my side too! And I did loose patience, just like you did 😑
My family had very good intentions, but boy... my mental health had been ruined when I tried to get anything from it 😭
This video was just fun, you being more yourself and not scripted, looking at the box, it could've had potential but the best thing about it was clearly the eraser 😅
I also received one of these sets as a kid and I couldn't help but reminisce over your frustration. I 100% agree that these sets do nothing but demotivate artists. However, I think the worst part is because it was gifted to me by my parents, I felt the guilt of throwing them away and obligated to use them. Parents please! take from this video and learn a little bit about what to get your little artists because this was a nightmare for me, just the same as ADC. Thank you ADC for doing this video. Hopefully you just saved a bunch of new artists from these nightmares in a box.
Thank you for speaking out regarding water based markers! I feel exactly the same. And I hope you give your nephew the empty box which he can fill with lots of possibilities!
The wooden boxes were definitely high quality back in the day too. Well my “back in the day” were the 90s
I love the box. It’s beautiful. They should just sell those and allow you to fill them with your own stuff.
Funny thing: I think my in laws got me this exact same set you got there. Like a few things alter (mostly just the ingraved logo on the case and the design of the water/oil/acrylic paint), but apart of that it is the same product.
The only reason I was happy about the thing was because that wooden case is kinda gorgeous. The paints are partly alright. Depends on the colour I think. I used the a few of the acrylics and the waterpaint so far when I ran out of my higher quality stuff on a Sunday morning or whatever. Some worked fine, some are an absolute nightmare - m' lookin' at you acrylic green
Last year I got an easel from that exact brand for just 18€ and I was as amazed as you are. The paints and brushes that came with it are some of the best I’ve ever used
This brand is always in my local Lild and literally every art supply I've gotten from them has been one of the best ones I've had! The prices are pretty good too
I have never had one of those, even being the art kid growing up and now! I have always just told or showed my parents and relatives what i wanted for my birthday and Christmas.😊💜
Thank you SO MUCH for this video! I am laughing so much and feel a bit as if I looked at myself teaching :D
Glad that my thoughts about art supplies for children are valid and that it makes a lot of sense of me to let my kids use my supplies when they are drawing/painting with me (yes, I'm talking about my full set of Polychromos colouring pencils and watercolors from W&N, Schmincke and Roman Szmal) and buy them good quality supplies for playing alone.
I have a niece who is an artist, I'll never be able to paint anything like that. I do not understand why her parents do not buy her good quality supplies. It does not have to cost a lot extra to get more pigment and better binder in the paints but the way they perform is so much better! As it is, she gets a bit spoiled at her birthday and Christmas :)
My goal is to promote the best and accessible supplies. As you say, that means introducing people to these products too.
New artists, be they children, teens or adults are seeking satisfaction and results, without the correct tools they won't see them.
I'll do my best to showcase professional products CHEAPER than this kit more in the future. It seems many aren't aware of them.
I remember the cheap plastic, VHS case-like art sets that easily got crushed, but this one is gorgeous. I wanted to use the colored pencils, but they're the size of your pinkie finger.
Oils are absolute madness in my opinion. You need paint thinner, linseed oil is common, and oil paint takes an infinity to dry because oil doesn't evaporate at the same rate as water. You have to walk away from your painting and never touch it. You can scrape off what you don't like and do it over, so that's cool.
Crappy as the set is, I'm impressed they included oil paints! I definitely encourage you to try them more in the future, as other people in the comments have said already they're supposed to be used with paint thinner/ turpentine rather than water. You can actually do some pretty cool stuff with oil pastels and paint thinner as well though a less waxy pastel would work better. But oils are one of the most forgiving paints you can use, you can fix mistakes pretty easily.
(Also, this video is making me want to bust out my Crayola markers just for fun😆)
ADC doesn't have intrusive thoughts...all of them are extrusive on camera 😂😂
I have a real bad habit of doing these things. Even off camera, I "knock" on walls.. Tip things over.. I'm a little different haha
I had one. Just an assortment of cheap stuff. When I got back into drawing in my 30s, I was pretty jealous that kids today have internet and TH-cam to learn all about the good, affordable art supplies. I think if someone had given me a set of Prismacolors and a decent set of alcohol markers when I was 12, I might have pursued art more seriously in my teens and 20s--my high school art career mainly consisted of me just drawing stuff to make my friends laugh. One year, me and a friend drew our English teacher so many times, we pretty much had a set design for him like we were animators or something, lol.
I got that kit as a gift and I make it work quite well, in some parts even better than some professional supplies I had, the kit is still good if you know how to use supplies properly together and in a way where they best excel at. I personally love using it in my sketchbook and still create good character or illustration pages without any struggles.
I'd say obviously not to get that kit if the person in question is not yet that good of an artist or doesn't know how to make cheap supplies work. You don't need professional or insanely expensive high-quality supplies to make good art.
I have this kit, the saying a good artist can make any supply into a masterpiece isn't true lmao, the supplies may work for what you do but they're awful supplies. Like they may "look good" but they're not good quality, yeah can make them looks good enough, but that just it. They're good enough, the acrylic paints and watercolour paints work good enough. But when you use even just student grade products there's a clear difference and increase in quality with not much increase in proce lmao. Buying a set like this is fine as long as you're not trying to do anything even just for a beginers art class. There is no reason to use these over student grade supplies, which compared to the price of this would even be generally cheaper. This specific set isn't cheap. The whole price goes towards the wooden box, and that's the only thing it's worth for. The supplies are good for kids. But even some of the supplies included kids shouldnt use. This set is just not worth it unless people want a big box, they're not good supplies and they don't make good art, it's just barely good enough
@@articice3184 I do agree there is better quality supplies, of course but I wasn't talking about the price of this one but quality, my point was just that you don't need insanely high quality supplies to be able to make good art. Could you make something that could be held in a museum? Of course not lol but for art at home the supplies are good enough to be satisfied with if properly used. I personally don't know how much this specific kit cost as it was a gift so I'm basing my opinion off of the supplies inside alone, and anyone can be satisfied with them if they know what they're doing.
I'm not saying to buy these over better quality stuff if they're cheaper as that's a no brainer but for many people it will be different depending on their skills and experience so I wouldn't call the supplies a fail or bad or only good for kids etc.
@@articice3184"the supplies are good for kids"...
What? Did you not watch the video?
ADC spent the entire video struggling, and you want to give that same product to a child? Someone with possibly no prior experience?
@@shadowheartart3898 Where in my comment did you get that? That is completely opposite of my entire comment xd
ADC said that "the supplies are good for kids" (with exceptions) in his previous comment, my point was against that.
This is not 'for kids' or someone who doesn't know how to work with lower quality supplies. Re-read my comment please as you entirely missed my point (you did the whole 180 on it lmao). Or, if english is not your stronger suit then don't reply with arguing semantics
@@trashycookie9477 it wasn't directed at you, but the other one who posted on your original comment =)
I thought I'd made it clear enough by sticking their name on it - I apologise for the confusion. It wasn't intended
My grandmother would give me a kit like this every Christmas, and I never really used them. Even as a child I knew the supplies were not good.
“My phone fell over and I jumped” I don’t know why but that KILLED me 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I’m sure those colored pencils have very little pigment, but can you try them on something with more tooth than marker paper? It might help a little.
I also agree I don’t know why watercolor markers suck so much. At least Tombows are good for sketching, but you have to be prepared for and work with the streakiness, or blend them with a brush and water.
Ok I got to the point where you pushed the pencil hard. Sorry they were a bust. When my kids started showing more than a passing interest in art, I started buying them better quality supplies. I would never waste money on these sets.
Also oil pastels can make beautify work. Those ones are clearly trash. And don’t knock regular crayons, they have their place for teaching kids and having fun.

better quote ever.

For the oil paint, you could have used turpentine, linseed oil, or mineral spirits to clean the brush and blend. The oil pastels can be blended like oil paint with a paper stump or fingers. The set was not as bad as you thought. You are a favorite❤
For oils paints, I use white spirits as a paint thinner and clean the brush, probably not the healthiest, but it's the cheapest option...
The pack is for the whole family, kids to adults lol.
Also glad i'm not the only one who gets distracted by wobbling paper to make a sound XD
I was laughing so hard watching you struggle! My parents bought me art kits like this many times and I see they haven’t improved in 40 years.
They've gotten even worse haha. And even more expensive :(
I had a smaller set with those markers that came in a metal briefcase. The supplies weren't the best quality, but not many of my art supplies at that time were very good quality, and my art was on par with my supplies. I loved the briefcase, though. I thought it looked more professional and kept the supplies organized.
Crayons exist because they’re the easiest thing to lay down color, so it’s the first thing kids learn to color with. The wax doesn’t wipe off as easily. Some colored pencils are waxed based, just so ya know. Those aren’t really crayons; they looked like some sort of pastel chalk with some oily substance.
I had one of those kits when I was like 5 and that is how it started my love of drawing.
As a kid i used creyons for scratch art. Make a gradient ow color then use a sharp object to carve the painting. Might not be high art but as a small child it was great fun. I also remember something about putting them in hot water to make them smoother but that might be my memory lying to me.
The only good kids art supplies in my opinion is the STABILO WOODY 3 in 1 (colored pencil, watercolor and wax crayon) these are the best. Also really good pigment, for the price amazing :)
i would dump all the supplies in the box, and use it for my quality supplies. the box is the only quality there!!
Next time you use oil paint, use mineral spirits to clean ur brush. Oil and water usually dont mix lol
Maybe they should just sell the boxes empty, the box does look so pretty.
This art set I was my very first art set. When my mom got this . I knew my art journey began
Oh dear, I remember having something similar to this when I was younger. Always thought it was me and I just couldn’t colour or wasn’t pushing down hard enough for the coloured pencils 😂
Honestly one of your funniest videos purely because of the honesty and natural reacts not caring about what people might think. 😂💯 Great Video.
The most fun video I've seen today! Eraser obviously took the win here today.
My dad bought a no brand set that looked very similar to these when I was a teenager, but the box had a metal handle instead. It looked really spiffy. I wasn’t really able to use the supplies much due to severe allergies. We ended up giving all the supplies away. Unfortunately, although it might have been due to age, all the plastic shattered when trying to remove items. We cleared it all out and the wood box is nice.
Wow the emotions that seeing this set brought back😅. That was a fun trip down memory lane.
No wonder I never understood how blending worked and stopped doing artsy stuff as a kid, I didn't have this exact thing but similar
Considering that kit is £40 in the UK, you could get Ohuhu markers for that price.
I'd buy, Faber-Castell pencils (£10). A small Set of Ohuhu (£20). Pencil (50p). Sharpener (20p). And a £10 set of whichever paint you prefer.
It really is overpriced and easily beaten
ADC: "Don't buy these for children"
Also ADC: "I'm gonna give this to my nephew"
LMAO I'm loving this "true" you! You're so funny!
Hey, at least you can use that drawing of Bob and tell people you did that when you were a kid! xD
Haha thank you!!
And yup, Nephew must go through the fire too LOL
I hated using one of these sets when I was a kid, but at the same time I was so happy when I got it. For me it felt like I'm an artist and my parents cared for me
I had a cheap platic one when i was little, and loved it!
It basically only had textas, pencils crayons and watercolour pallet. But the pencils were pretty good (for a kid) i used to put my clouring book in it (like a briefcase lol) i honestly carried that thing everywhere. I think back then the supplies were better but the cases were cheap... nowadays its the opposite, fancy cases but crap supplies lol
These kind of kits is why so many kids make an attempt at art, decide they must be doing it wrong, and give up, without realizing the problem is the garbage art supplies.
Fun fat ,That's actually a parrot and i love it ♡☆♡☆
This video was so enjoyable=) Thank you. Now you deserve some well-earned rest=) I like the box, it can be put to good use and filled with a better-quality supplies. =)
This isn't the art box of my childhood hahaha those pencils look like my Faber-Castell pencils lol definitely a step on for my childhood Christmas present every year lol
Nicer than any art kit I had as a kid. Mine came in plastic containers and the supplies were even worse. Only got one brush too.
I used cheap watercolor pens like those ones. For better results it's better to:
1. Test the colors before and how they mix
2. Don't mix more than 2 colors because the paper will tear
3. Be fast to paint because they dry fast and once dry, you can't continue painting the same area because the new paint overlaps with the old paint
4. Start with the lighter colors and finish with the darkest colors
5. Avoid mixing colors to not damage the paper and they don't mix uniformly, so it's better to use a large color set for each of the different tones
It was the "DISgusting" after seeing the market tip for me 🤣😂
I have the exact same case but in black xD
As soon as you started to use the markers & oil pastels I knew you would hate them, they are bad. As are the watercolors & brushes. The colored pencils on the other hand - I figured out that with the right paper (with a rough texture) they are not that bad! I liked the acrylics very much - very creamy texture and I think you need to use paint thinner or turpentine with the oil paints. But I think you did a very good job on the "penguin". Love your videos! :)
The consistent biting of everything is so me coded 😭😭
My brother got me a similar art kit as a holiday gift. The pencils were decent as were callligraphy pens & acrylic paints which I used for Gelliprints. I’ve had the kit for a few years & I still haven’t used the oil pastels & the tube watercolors since I prefer pan ones. The case is great for storing sketchbooks though👍
This is why I don't use kids art supplies as much as I used to a have a set of Sanjoki alcohol markers and those are my favorite personally ❤️
This video was so chaotic 🤣 I thought I loved these as a kid but getting one when I was older it was shocking. I absolutely hated the pens actually got put off using coloured pens
The box is really nice, the rest you can donate them. Thank you so much for this video !
I have read that you are supposed to put water in the markers to make them flow better😅
and the brushes comes with a layer of something that you have to wash away in Lukewarm water, after washing that away, those kind of brushes are quite good🥰
In case I haven't said it lately, I love you haha. You're just so relatable because that's exactly how I am when I try new stuff. In fact, I bought some Gouache just to see if I'd like it after you loved it so much. Thank you so much for being here ^_^
I can feel the paper tearing with those markers
Might be obvious, and the video isn't new but 1) The pencils seem to be like Faber-Catell Polychromos. 2)Coloured pencils work in the way that you slowly build up the vibrid colour by layering and layering and layering some more
Tip from one with coloured pencils; yeah, pencils doesn't work like markers. To get a good solid black, build it by taking the darkest of the other colours, blue, green, brown, grey and purple. And just layer, and layer. Again and again.
Looks like the markers will be good for colouring Disney colouring sheets. Where it's more or less one colour per area or part of the drawing
I enjoy using Prismacolor for making artwork 😄. Thanks for your advice
Even Tony Hart would struggle with that kit.
The parrot with water colors looks awesome... oils take wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy tooo long to dry, i hate that part of oils, love how they handle though.
At least you get a cute case for your good art materials 😅
I used to get art sets each year for Christmas and loved them, they weren't that good but so much fun 😅
Seeing kits like this one, no-brand-I've-heard-of art supplies in a fancy wooden case with metal hinges and clasp, I always figured most of the production budget went into the case, to make it look fancy-schmancy and get relatives to buy these kits for their kids. The target market really didn't seem to be actual artists. It's satisfying, in a cynical way, to see that I was right. It looks like 85% of what you're paying for is the case and only 15% is the art supplies. Ick.
“We’re doing three pieces of artwork today” man i don’t blame you for not trying a third one after that disaster 🤣🤣
I used to love those sets because it allowed me to color and draw but as I am older, I find them so hard to use lol. But your set looks way better than the cheap ones I get from Michaels
I'm definitely emptying the kit and keeping this box. It's so amazing! Blew my mind, before i used the products haha
It's $40 on Amazon
About pencils and quality, I personally buy mid-range pencils usually. I prefer a certain hardness of lead because being left-handed means I'll smear all over the paper and my hand if I use a lead that's too soft or crumbly.
How frustrating for you! Thanks for trying it out!!!!! 😮
I still believe that all his "problems" would be resolved by using different types of paper. Mixed media paper would have resulted in completely different results! Especially with the water based markers and watercolor paints. 😎 (just from my own experience)
If it's not too late to say; you need to put water into the marker. The base unscrews to fill the pen with water. only found this out a few months ago myself and having been crying over the unnecessary loss of so many childhood drawing
WHAT
I remember having one of these as a kid and liking it haha
Growing up poor. Had I got this for Christmas ever, it would of been the best thing I ever owned. I think you're being too elitest. There are kids out there with passion to draw and make art with no means to do so.
Art aets are tricky,keep going man!
Hullo Anthony, I got a few of these "art tool boxes" as a youngster and they were horrible! Aunts and Uncles knew I was doing "art" so they got those multiple content supplies boxes. I had a Grandmother that taught me watercolors at just 10 years old so I had a great start but she was very old school. Now I believe a good set of 48 pencils or a 12 color set of watercolor paints can begin anyone's art journey. I have seen sets of just 6 watercolors at the professional level can open worlds of color mixing!(DaVinci Paints of California has sets starting at $39.00!) Starting with 100% cotton watercolor paper can be key to avoiding so many problems. Those brushes have a glue in them to protect them during travel and you MUST wash them! Before use! HEY if your serious about trying a professional watercolor set and I know living outside of the USA can be problematic for lower prices. Hey HIT ME up! I would be happy to send you a sample set of watercolors. Living in Germany you should check out Schmincke products I bet they are even moderately priced! I hope to hear from you in the future, see ya next video!
I like how drawing artist youtuber explained this kind of items even it's useful or not 😊👍
This is the reason why I went digital as soon as it was feasible. Good art-supplies are too expensive and affordable art-supplies are generally crap (Though honestly I'm partial to Derwent because of their huge price-range.). For two decades now I use art-pads and pen-tablets (art-pads - affordable/pen-tablets - splurge a little!!). If you're not sure, get an art-pad. If you don't like it you can still use it for OSU. You don't even need to pay through the nose for an art-program as GIMP and Krita exist and are free. The cost of making digital art is heavily frontloaded, but once you have a reasonable laptop and your art-pad/pen-tablet you're set (Many digi-artists offload their old pads/tablets as soon as something better in their class comes around so at the turn of a new hardware-gen you can get some good 2-hand deals.).
Physical art-creation is too expensive and the fact that beginners have little knowledge about what's decent for a reasonable cost is heavily abused.
The magnetic pencil part ended me 😂 in 4:29
Just a heads up, Ohuhu do oil paints that are incredibly good quality for the price 😉
I would love to see you do video on oil painting! It’s my favourite out of all the paint types 😊
Wait they do?!? Are they like student grade or artist grade? I love oil so much and I’m always looking around at different brands so I’m surprised I haven’t heard about this 😅
Saw this set in lidls for £29.99. The materials work fine on the paper lidls sell. True they could have supplied a little bottle of linseed oil and turps. on the whole this is a nice set, it gives you a chance to try lots of mediums. i reckon if you bought student grade for all the products it would cost at least 5 time the amount. As a pro artist who are used to expensive quality materials they are always going to notice how inferior kids supplies are.
I mean back in the early 2000's these really sucked, my family used to get them for me all the time. The cases were plastic, the pencils broke often and the markers were so dry. The pencil wood splits all the time. The concept of them is great, heck they might have been a building block to me getting into art. There are more expensive ones that are better. The idea is good for someone getting into art
