You're back! Hello fellow March baby! Thank you so much for humoring all my orders from your shop. I am so happy that you are making videos again, and would love to see videos from you about how you make landscapes!
Congratulations on your palette. What a wonderful gift to yourself! I plan on getting one for myself one-day, just likes your specifications, minus your name, off course. It's gorgeous!
Awe, I'm so happy for you! Congratulations on your palette. I had one my father made for me. I was plein air painting from the boat and lost it in the water when a large wave hit the boat. I wish you nothing but happiness with yours. May it being you a lifetime of joy and creativity. You can seal it in a brass wax. Not that you'll need it if you aren't going to be taking it around with you.
Oh my.. that must have been a heartache. So sorry. But thank you for the well wishes. It took me years before i finally said yes to myself I'd invest on this, so yes, i need to maximize and enjoy it. As of now, ive no plans on bringing this out of my room 🤣 but thanks for the tip. 🙏
Haha. No, it took me a year to convince myself to order this. I just really wished for this and got really tempted, like i dreamt of having it for nights.. so i gave in.hehe
Happy Birthday... Congratulations on your new Brass palette...Thank you for all your videos ...The art work in every product testing video is amazing...
Happy birthday!! A very nice treat for you. I hope you enjoy your palette for many, many years to come!! There is a product called Brasso. It is liquid when you apply a small amount. Wait until it dries. Then use a soft cloth to polish. This is similar to car polish. I hope this helps!
Yay! So happy to see you posted a video!!! We missed you! Hope you are well! Beautiful palette and Im happy you were able to treat yourself! Great video and thanks for sharing💛
Your can try applying wav polish periodically.. Apply and run of real well.. That should be pretty effective. Especially during humid seasons. Monsoons etc. In India we use a brass polish periodically too that shines it up real nicely
Lovely palette. Over time it will patinate naturally just use a soft cloth to remove any oily finger marks. It will patinate more in some places than others. Do not use any cleaners on it and if you need to wash it do so with very gentle water with a little dish soap and a soft cloth. It will take some time to patinate well, but just be patient with it. It is really impossible to say what colour exactly the patina will be, that is down to environment and handling. I really like the sturdy build on this, and feel it will have a nice weight when it is filled (I have seen you video on that). Sitting it on a soft dry cloth when in use will prevent scar th he’s to the bottom. I love the imperfections, they give it character, in fact I think the maker has put the imprint of his own self on what he makes, though similar in design to other patented these have recognisable characteristics that could last centuries!
Youre right Lindy. and Thank you for all the tips! I like its weight as it personally makes it feel more valuable in contrast to plastic. I dont know, but Im excited for the patina effect. hahaha. the older this palette gets, the better it becomes,.. just like leather and wine. :)
There’s always a certain item/s that we are willing to splurge money on. We work so hard for our money, so every now and then buying something crazy expensive because we LOVE it is self love. Gotta treat yourself! I have found that my art supplies and especially on watercolor items, apparently my budget tends to be open… but tell me to pay for bills and I swear my wallet closes. 😂 Also, happy to see you back posting and can’t wait to see which watercolors are the chosen ones for the Brass Pallete. I started my watercolor journey about 3 months ago and your channel has been filled with great content for it! 🖤
Thank you for your encouragement and tolerance. 😅🥰 I agree on the bills. That's where i get more critical too. Haha. I'm happy to be of help on your watercolor journey. I'm sure you'll have great time exploring the medium too specially that you also have an open open-mind on splurging for paints. Hehe. Just enjoy. Happy painting Monse. 🙏
Oh my! You are back! Yknow how much I have been looking forward to you Allan? At the past few months, where have you been? This brass watercolor palette sure looks royal and you probably deserved it! Ill be always looking forward to your reviews on art supplies! Speaking about reviews, if you can, can you review another Maries Watercolor Set? The last ones you reviewed ( Maries Masters, Maries Beginner Set and Pans Set... ) are nice, but Im curious to see your feedbacks towards this set that is called as higher quality of it. It has a white cover with a huge Marie's word on it colored with rainbow hues. When we will get to see another supply review?
Hello General Fang. Yes im back and i missed all of you. The last 5mis was a roller coaster. Got loads of work and projects, plus our family got Covid too. But now, everyone's recovered. I haven't seen that Marie's yet. I have been hearing that there was a fake Maries circulating though. Could it be this one? But i heard the fake one has an orange box. Im not sure if it's true. But fake or not, im still willing to review it. Thanks for your suggestion. Will do reviews again in the coming weeks. I have tons of sets waiting to be reviewed. 😃
Csnt wait too. For sure, I'm gonna do a swatching video and also a handpouring video. For the sample painting, im not sure yet, as in the near future, you'll see me alot using this palette. 😉
Nice palette, Ive thinking about getting one from this guy myself also non painted on the outside. If you don’t polish the brass it gets a very nice patina over time as the surface oxidises but areas you hold or touch a lot stay shiny. In my opinion brass watercolour boxes look better as they get older with all the accumulated dings and wear they get if used a lot. If you do want to polish it at any time just use a metal polish and soft cloth, there’s a product called “brasso” specifically formulated for polishing brass. A sort of in between option is to rub it down with fine steel wool, that will remove the oxidisation but over time it will get that matte clean brass look.
Thank you for the tip, John. I am definitely excited for my palette to get that worn off look and patina in some parts, but a part of me also wants it shiny.haha. have you ordered yours?
Happy birthday! Thank you for a wonderful video. I think there are ways of restoring the shine after brass has developed a patina. The reason I want an unpainted brass palette is BECAUSE of how it tarnishes/patinas. It ages in a way that is total unique to you and how you use and handle it.
Maybe that one you saw is made in USA or Europe. Since this is Indian made, it is cheaper and brass is also cheaper in India. Glad to have helped you save. 😊
Happy birthday and congratulations on your brass palette! I got the same palette from Venu back in 2018. His palettes are built like a tank, very sturdy build compared to other brass palettes. Still love it! 😀
Thank you. 🙏 You were the only Pinoy on IG I know who owns a brass kaya envied a bit.hahaha. yes, I noticed that it is dense too. Im curious about other brass palettes in the maket event the commerical ones. Pero tsaka na muna at wala na akong budget.hahaha
Let’s round it to 400 dollars - it it lasts 40 years - the cost is less than a dollar a month. So, when you consider it will last you a lifetime, it’s not expensive.
I was just thinking about you the other day! So glad you are doing well. Happy Birthday! I hope you include my favorite Daniel Smith color, nickel azo yellow an quin pink.
Congrats been looking at this one and Craigs for a while now since the House of Hoffmann is just to expensive. I myself dont like to wait for a year so I went with the Santa Fee Brass Palette from Etsy. There is little waiting time for those. Thought I'd share my findings incase someone is as unpatient as me. To keep precious metals safe just polish it with Elsterglanz or a simlar metal type cleaning paste product. It's what I use to clean my jewelry and knifes etc.
Thank you for your brass makers tip and also for the care tip. 🙏 i am also impatient when in comes to waiting. Good thing, i know my budget will be complete after few months, so i ordered with just enough time for me to save up for the palette. Hehe
@@AllanJayQuesada you diserve that brass palette since you really do alot for the watercolor community, one can feel the passion in your videos, keep it up I've seen many of em and I make sure to stop by at least once a month. ;)
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that one third of the money you've paid went to the packaging... lol But it is a great palette box and deserves a very safe packaging! Congrats.
I have brought this in Bangkok, India and Singapore for travel sketching, despite my initial intention of not using it on pleinair because of itw weight. Haha. But i used it anyway and im happy. Im sure it's not for everyone though. (Please also watch my India and Bangkok sketch tour where i used this palette). I have been dreaming of this brass palette for so long, and so far, i am happy and i have no regrets. Again, i dont think this is for everyone though, but i believe this is a good investment as it doesnt easily wear off like plastic or steel. 😊
I wanted this a lot and I might have buyer’s remorse if I order this ( so I’m watching this for the 2nd time trying to convince myself I don’t need this)
ohh. I was on the same shoes as yours few years back.. it is truly a luxury palette considering the price.. and it may not be practical depending on your priorities.. but I gave up the temptations. hahaha. I was able to site some of the advantages of this palette.. and I am yet to show (since i used it in my journeys abroad over the past months) so.. that's gonna convince you more.. hehe. but yeah, in the end.. it has to be you. :)
Hi Allan, I am not on FB. Is there a way I can see what they have without having to do the FB thing? Maybe I am getting old, but I could not find a website... Any suggestion would be greatly apprechiated :-)
I know they are so expensive but if you really want one it's a good deal I guess. I still have my Schmincke metal palette. It's still in good condition. 😅😁
@@AllanJayQuesada Yes, it's mostly a glossy white spray that is applied. I don't know how well a satin finish would be. But actually.. it's much easier to rough up the surface slightly if you need to because of possible pooling.
@@AllanJayQuesada awesome thanks. I've thought about getting one, but questioned whether I'd actually get much use out of it or not. It's nice to hear that you are actually using yours.
@phillipstroll7385 getting a brass palette has actually no better edge compared to typical tin except for 2: 1st. brass palette is sturdier. And 2nd, it's the "class" and aesthetics. Function wise, it works well just like any palettes. 😊 so if those 2 reasons are good to you, then you deserve a brass palette too. 🎨
@@AllanJayQuesada :) thank you! I think I'll take the leap. I have a nephew who bugs the crap out of me wanting me to teach him all I know. I have told him a thousand times I can't teach him anything, but only show. It's up to him to put in the work. I play hard but I truly enjoy our time together. I think I'll get it and let him know just how much I love it and how long I've wanted it. Then leave it to him so he too can pass it along. Thanks for taking the time to offer your input.
I have been using it as a studio palette for a year now, and it's working fine. Yeah , i agree it's expensive for me, but i have no regrets. For some people who have extra to spend, why not, plus it's not plastic, and compared to steel, this is not easily gonna rust. 😉
I feel sorry for people who spend money on this palette. It isn't brass like the original one. It's plated. Which means it won't hold up and isn't worth the price paid for it. It is beautiful no doubt about it but it's far from what it claims to be.
You'll have to prove that accusation about the authenticity of the item.. if it's the color, I believe brass has different types and finishes. This manufacturer of palette has been there for quite some time, and has sold hundreds if not thousands of palettes. If they're scamming, atleast one must have come out and file complaint..please understand as well that India is rich with brass so brass there is cheap as well as the labor.
@@AllanJayQuesada I'm, let me find where I read it. The manufacture have an interview and said they are played not actual brass. I'll try to find the article. If you bought that from India then you didn't get it from the same manufacturer. The one I read sells in at stores and web sites like Jackson's and Blick. I wanted one so badly until I read the article. Then I changed my mind. If you can provide a link to a real brass palette maker is really appreciate that very much. Thank you
You may have read an article about the 'Frazer Price Brass palette'. Available at Art suppliers like Jackson's or Ken Bromley. That one is indeed electroplated and costs around 110.-. Dollars, or Euros. And the manufacturer says clearly that it's plated. The weight of Allen's Palette on the other hand is a clear indicator that it's genuine. Brass is darn heavy. My plated one is not... So I am saving up for the real thing thus supporting India's economy...

In the US we have a saying, "You have a pair of brass ones!" I can't help thinking of this when I see this palette :-)
What does the saying mean? Hahaha. Sorry, got no idea.
@@AllanJayQuesada Um, it refers to the male anatomy. It means you did something really brave!
@Jenn W ohh I see. Hahaha! Maybe because brass is sturdy?heje
@@AllanJayQuesada Yes, unbreakable!

If they're scamming, atleast one must have come out and file complaint..please understand as well that India is rich with brass so brass there is cheap as well as the labor.
@@AllanJayQuesada I'm, let me find where I read it. The manufacture have an interview and said they are played not actual brass. I'll try to find the article. If you bought that from India then you didn't get it from the same manufacturer. The one I read sells in at stores and web sites like Jackson's and Blick. I wanted one so badly until I read the article. Then I changed my mind.
If you can provide a link to a real brass palette maker is really appreciate that very much. Thank you
@@phillipstroll7385 you should've watched the video first. Hehe. Yes, i bought this from India. It was sent to me by post.
You may have read an article about the 'Frazer Price Brass palette'. Available at Art suppliers like Jackson's or Ken Bromley. That one is indeed electroplated and costs around 110.-. Dollars, or Euros. And the manufacturer says clearly that it's plated.
The weight of Allen's Palette on the other hand is a clear indicator that it's genuine. Brass is darn heavy. My plated one is not... So I am saving up for the real thing thus supporting India's economy...
