I'm a watercolorist at heart, but recently I've been playing with gouache as well, and I enjoy it. I love the transparency of watercolor but gouache is definitely more forgiving of mistakes.
This is the most concise, no-nonsense, informative video on this subject I've ever seen
Now that i finally found the only information about poster color, i think my decision is finally clear.
I really love all these educational videos on the differences between various art and office supplies. I also really love all the amazingly detailed guides on the JetPens blog. Thank you everyone, for all your great work!
Thank you so much for the kind words!
This is the first time I literally searched about poster colours. Thank you for the info. The paintings and the music felt magical too.
I've been using gansai watercolors for a few years now and always wondered why they are so easy to lift when fixing mistakes; and this video has the answer :o I didn't know they were designed to use like that before.
Very informative, especially about poster colors!!! You don't get much information on how to use them properly in the west. Another confusing aspect is the paper that is used with it that I believe called TMK poster paper? It's very hard to find, but apparently many animators use it for backgrounds alongside The Nicker Poster colors. :0 Woud JetPens consider stocking the brushes and paper commonly used with Nicker Poster as well?
Thank you for your request! We will forward it to our buyers.
JetPens yes please stock the tmk muse paper it’s a key element to Ghibli style painting and completely unavailable in the US
Holly Jolly I use poster colours quite a lot as a "gouache" experience. Gouache is quite expensive for the level of artistry I'm at right now.
Anyway, I have found that any thick paper is good enough for poster colours. Whether textured or not, doesn't really matter, it's completely your choice whether you want a textured painting or not. The sketchbook papers we get here are more than enough to hold poster paints so I practice on those. It's not a very picky medium, from my experience. :)
Oh and I use mixed media brushes. They work just fine. 😊
I was just about to select a medium and your video showed up!!!! What a timing. Love you💙
This is so informative and I am so happy to learn about this.
As I am not experienced for the mentioned art supplies (most familiar is water color, and poster color)
After watched this video, I got more idea on this and really want to buy some to try.haha!
Best explanation I've ever seen of the differences between these types of paint. Thank you!
This was very helpful and informative! I not only go to your site to purchase supplies, but love how your videos that I always learn something from! Thanks!
The art is beautiful! Thank you for this great video ❤
I love watching this after coming home from my job :)
first off.. those are lovely illustrations!
I learned quite a lot this time! thank you so much! I'm currently using Gansai~ those particle images used really helped find out how each paint differs :)
❤️I love the paintings. Heidi is one of my favorite stories❤️
All these paintings are beautiful and I appreciate seeing the differences with each medium :)
Omg.. thank youuu..
I interested in painting.. the first time i visit a gallery, i was mesmerising.. but because i never had experienced with art , and i have zero basic regarding art/ colours and i neither creative nor artistic.. i just ignore it.. now, during quarantine I bought a poster colours( I thought it was watercolour at first 😱🤭🤭) and start search yt about painting for beginners.. and omg, i never felt this good u know & really find this is so enjoyable..
I do realised poster colour & watercolour is different things, so that’s why I’m here..
Conclusion, i will settle for poster colour for now because of price & i still a beginner learning about all of thing.. wish me luck..
I've been thinking of using gouache for a while now, especially since it can be used with watercolors. Maybe when I have some extra spending money I'll consider getting some gouache to try out!
I've never really heard about poster colours before. I love these informational videos!!
Excellent and informative video! Thanks!
Thank you for the video, i've never heard about poster colors before, but it seems very interesting.
Also, the information was very useful.
Great information! Very helpful and extremely thorough.
I like using all of them. Usually mixed together to get the results I want.
These illustrations are wonderful! This video was very helpful too, I was curious as to what made each of these different.
Ha i am also BTS fan
Thank you for this extremely informative video.
Those drawings are beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you very much for this lovely video.
This is what i needed from years ahhhh
I used to paint with poster colours a lot during school days. Then i started using watercolours. But now i wanna buy poster paints again
Early!!
I love you jet pens
I've wondered for a while what differentiates poster colors from watercolors and acrylic, and now I k ow. Thanks for making this video :D Also, I LOVE the paintings featured here, esp the one with the goat.
Thank you!
It’s t story of Heidi.
Are those painting samples paintings oh Heidi of the Alps?
Found your channel, and it's very helpful.
Those painting look like they're a part of my memory also thanks for the info
I LUV YOUR CHANNEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!🖌🖋🖊
yay first one here!! love ya jet pens!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you
The painting skills are amazing
I could never paint like that
Hey I really like this channel and the videos are really informative! So could you make a video about the different types of nibs that would be super cool I think!
We actually have a bunch of videos on nibs! Here's one on manga nibs: th-cam.com/video/nxy5jDmSVPc/w-d-xo.html and here's one on calligraphy nibs: th-cam.com/video/p2NQi1XqF6o/w-d-xo.html
-Is this loss-
Thanks! I've been looking for a good video about this topic!
I try Gouache and Poster Colours, liked both.
Are these scenes from HEIDI!?! I'm freaking out here 🤩
But I wanted to know how to get a watercolour effect with poster colours
Meha ARMY&MOA&STAY yes I also wanna know.!!!
Chemical _ X you basically just keep adding water until it’s transparent
I’m here for that too..... I only have poster colors and not watercolors..... the only watercolors I saw in the place I live in, is the chalky one with circular pan.....
Plz do top ten mechanal pencils and top ten pens for 2018
We'll add it to our list!
Great information 👍
I was unable to understand the difference in them but now its really clear. Thanks a lot . And all the paintings are awesome ❤️❤️❤️ but who is the artist ?
Ilysm
Woah,new format?
Interesting!
You are a very very good in paintings
With all the different pictures, its kinda hard to tell the difference, maybe im the weird one but painting with different colours with the same pictures would sure help to tell. Other than that, i really adored your painting skills keep up the good work dear! :)
That's really useful. I wonder if I can use poster color on outdoor comcrete wall of my house.
Poster colour can be gouache, watercolour and oil paint depending on how you use it
I’d like a vid which adds acrylic to these comparisons. Esp the difference between gouache and acrylics.
BTW I like the painting when talking about poster paints. It’s pretty.
2 years ago, we have a task about making a movie poster out of poster colors. And i think after watching this video, i figured out how to use poster colors properly...
Who are your artists/artist? I've been loving the art that has been featured while the supplies are used on it.
Thank you! We have an in-house artist who does all of our artwork. :)
Hi! I'm actually the artist for the artwork at JetPens! I don't have a TH-cam, but you can follow my work on my site or social media: www.electricabyss.com/illus_work.html
You've been killing it with the jetpens art! I always admire the artwork whenever a new product comes up!
Does this mean that you could or should use lesser quality paper with poster colors because things like lightfastness and acid-free qualities don't matter? i.e. I'll be scanning the artwork. So long as the paper works with the paint, I think it makes monetary sense. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Who's the artist? Do they have a social media acc where they post their art? I like their style.
poster colors are an underrated medium.
Oml I wish jetpens would open a branch in Canada! All their products are fairly priced, but it’s always the shipping fee that’s stopping me...
I only know poster colour in my life...😂😂😂 Even i call poster colour is watercolour until i trying to find references for drawing, now i know it totally different..maybe because poster colour are more popular in my country and cheap😌😌😌
Can you use poster colors on normal poster boards?
I love watercolours
Are there other poster color brands that are for artists?
@JETPENS Do you supply your stationery items to India??
We ship to India!
What if you mix poster color with acrylic medium?
This is amazing! It would be lovely to have a section where you guys teach us different techniques that we can use on these paint, (i.e. like lifting, washed, etc) cause the painting looks amazing!
We have a video on watercolor techniques here: th-cam.com/video/NARgHHk6wOI/w-d-xo.html
ahhh ok thanks!
Is it easier to buy gouache over poster colors? Cause they're more expensive than gouache here in my country for obvious reason they're imported.
Which is more preferable to make REALISTIC painting? Water color or poster color?
Hi there! It depends on how vivid you want your colors to be. Generally we'd recommend poster colors for a more lush, richly saturated painting, while watercolors tend to be slightly more diluted, unless you use extra pigmented watercolor paints.
How to get water color effect from water soluble poster colors?
has anyone noticed that the pictures they're painting are the book 'HEIDI' illustration
Nice video. Educational. I've never heard about 'poster colours'. In our country we name them as type of 'tempera'. 'Egg tempera' is called just 'tempera' too.
I prefer solid watercolours. Because I don't know how prevent paints in tubes from drying out. Paint having dryed on mouth, tube cover breaks TT_TT
Hi, could someone tell me if poster colors are the same as "temperas" (in spanish)? Because I've seen a lot of videos of artist making lovely paintings whit poster colors and I want to try it too, but it's like they don't exist here where I live. Sorry if I misspelled something and thank you. Amazing video by the way, super helpful 💗
The Nicker Poster Colors are much nicer than traditional temperas. Tempera is a kind of poster paint, and it's usually made for kids.
JetPens oh, thank you very much for your attention! I'll search online then! You have a really beautiful youtube channel, thanks again 😊
Thank you for the kind words!
Poster colors are underrated
Can someone recommend me which one of these best choice for me as a beginner to wet medium?
We would choose either the poster color or watercolors for beginners!
JetPens Thanks!
@jetpens, try also for once to paint a black girl or a just non white example , been waiting for that for years!! pffff
What watercolor paper was used ?
We used this one: www.jetpens.com/Global-Art-Fluid-Watercolor-Paper/ct/3912
GOUACHE all the way.. I never tried gansai watercolor but i think its the one they used for anime backgrounds.
do you ship to Italy?
Yes we do!
always thought that poster colour and watercolour are the same,now i know the diference.
I think the painting u did is from the cartoon called "Heidi" right? Anyways it's breathtaking............aw...aw..aw
Hello
Who is the artist? Such beautiful paintings.
Thank you! We have an in-house artist who does all of our artwork. :)
Hi! I'm actually the artist for the artwork at JetPens! I don't have a TH-cam, but you can follow my work on my site or social media: www.electricabyss.com/illus_work.html
Thank you for sharing your site, Heidi. I'm in awe at all of your work!
I prefer poster colors over guache and watercolor since the mistakes are easiest to fix.
2nd
I'd never heard of gouache until very recently. When I first heard the name, I thought it was Goulash rather than Gouache. Searching for Goulash on youtube landed me at some cooking videos.
I like using watercolors out of pans.
I must’ve got a rubbish one, my poster paint is so translucent it looks like pva glue
I came here coz I'm confuse of poster color and gouache
amm i early
