The watercolor paints shopping guide (dry goods)After writing the watercolor brushes shopping guide for newbies, I've always wanted to write another watercolor paints shopping guide, but I've been slow to write, because watercolor paints are really complicated, and it's much harder to make it clear. I put several times more effort into researching watercolor paints than I do watercolor brushes. In this article for watercolor newbies, I hope to put together the best of the hundreds of videos and articles I've watched over the months, along with my direct experience with them, of course. I hope to help those who are new to watercolor to take fewer detours, spend less time, energy and money on shopping for watercolor paints, and spend the time saved on improving their painting skills. Now on the market popular watercolor paint about the following brands: domestic horsepower, cherry blossom, Windsor Newton, Rubens (domestic), Lucas, Van Gogh, Rembrandt, Meijiele, white night, new Han, the lower part of the day, the beautiful blue hummingbird, Schenectady, DanielSmith (referred to as DS), Hollbain, Smink, MG, auspicious YanCai, phoenix YanCai, WuZhu YanCai, nicker, etc. In fact, there are a lot of niche watercolor paint, and the watercolor paint is not only a good choice, but also a very good choice for the watercolor industry. In fact, there are quite a few niche brands will not be listed. None of the above paints are unique, which means that they have their own characteristics and their own audience. Every painter has his own favorite brand. The cheapest watercolor paints are a few dozen dollars a box, usually in the hundreds of dollars, and the best ones cost more than a few thousand dollars. What to choose and which parameters to look at are very telling. Of course, those who are not poor can buy all these paints at home. I saw on the B site with hamsterism UP masters to buy all the popular pigments on the market, and all of them buy the full color of the brand. All the paints were almost never used except for drawing color cards. It's a bit of a waste to use all these paints for what is estimated to be dozens of lifetimes. So whether you want to paint, or become a hoarder, think carefully before you start! Below I will explain the classification of watercolor, pigment characteristics, the characteristics of the main popular brands, my introduction to watercolor paints and recommended watercolor paint guide for newbies in six parts. The whole article is a bit long, so if you don't want to bother, you can just read the first and the last part. But if you have the patience to read them one by one, the watercolor pigments will have a more comprehensive understanding of Oh! 1. Price range division of the solid watercolor configuration of 24 color matching, for example, I will be on the market mainstream watercolor is divided into three grades: low-grade grade pigments first grade is cheap entry-level, the price range of tens of dollars to 130 yuan, the main brands are domestic horsepower, Japan's Terence Sakura, the Lion of Taiwan and the domestic Windsor Newton. Why is 130 yuan, because that is the price I bought Sakura 24 color solid color. Honestly cherry blossom this box of watercolor really expensive, I feel that under 100 yuan is about the same, the performance is not much better than tens of dollars. But I do not know how to get everyone from the cherry blossom pit, probably their marketing campaign to do a good job, the main entry-level watercolor paints. In fact, these paints for children can be painted casually, want to seriously paint watercolor do not choose this level. Mid-range level pigment this level of pigment is more, such as the Netherlands Van Gogh and Rembrandt, Britain's Windsor Newton College-level song text, domestic Rubens, Russia's White Night, South Korea's Meijiele, Japan's lower part of the day and so on, the price of 150 to 400 or less, most of them in the two hundred or three hundred like. It is recommended that beginners in this grade of pigment on the choice, do not be superstitious what entry-level cherry blossom. High-grade level pigments from more than 400 to thousands of dollars, the mainstream of Germany's Schmincke, Japan's Holbein, the United States of DanielSmith and MG, France's Schennelier, and Italy's beautiful blue hummingbird. Schminck's Academy grade 24-color solid color some treasure is about 420 yuan, the price is not bad, beginners can also try. Other watercolor is really not cheap. 15ml MG artist-grade tube color is more than sixty dollars a, calculated 24 colors to be more than 1,500 yuan, plus a variety of pens, as a consumable paper and the cost of other painting tools, plus improve the painting skills need to be honed for years and years of practice, the long-term investment is really not a small amount of expenditure ah! (After you enter the painting pit, you realize that besides watercolors, there are also colored pencils, markers, oils, and other materials.) Hmph, painting is really very unfriendly to the poor! Of course, if you have money, feel free to buy high quality paints, paper and brushes, especially paper, within your means! Good painting materials can help you ease the blow when you first learn to paint.2._The sprite province_ro the sprite shit tube huang the spriteWe generally say that watercolor mainly refers to transparent watercolor, the pigment after adding water to show the transparent properties, through the addition of water to control the color shades (lightness). In addition to transparent watercolor, translucent watercolor is also more popular, used to paint more ancient style. Translucent watercolors have bright colors and some of the characteristics of transparent watercolors. However, because it is translucent, the particles are relatively large, and it is easy to get dirty when more than three colors are mixed together. But I haven't tried the ancient style myself, so I won't comment more on it. Opaque watercolor is like gouache with covering (gouache is cheaper and rougher), generally used in landscape painting, the color is very beautiful. Animation background color is a lot of opaque watercolor to portray. Hayao miyazaki animation scene with the nicker brand of opaque watercolor, similar to the following effect: compare transparent watercolor, the feeling is not completely different? White paper in transparent watercolor coverage can also be transparent white bottom. Most of the brands on the market focus on transparent watercolor, there are some brands also have opaque watercolor, do not choose the wrong one when you buy.3. College level and artist level most of the brands are divided into college level and artist level two kinds of college level is used by students to practice, the price is cheaper than the artist level. From the performance aspect, the college level is definitely worse than the artist level. However, some specific parameters have not been introduced here, so I will not expand the description. Artist grade will be better in terms of performance and preservation in terms of results. Also, some brands have different names for Academy Grade and Artist Grade. For example, Windsor Newton's Academy Grade is called Gwen, and Artist Grade is imported Windsor Newton Artist Grade; Meijerle Gold is Artist Grade, and Silver is Academy Grade, which is also easy to mistake for those who are unfamiliar with it. It is said that it is difficult to separate the difference between the two for a novice using the hand. In this case, choose a better brand of academy level is enough to use to practice. 4. tube color and solid color when we were young in art class with the Horsepower brand of tube paint, so the first contact with the solid watercolor watercolor when you start learning watercolor feel very fresh. The paint comes in small pieces, like candy, and is very pretty and durable. When you paint, you take a wet brush and dip it directly. I was afraid of getting dirty at the beginning, so I had to wipe off the other colors on the surface every time I finished painting. In fact, the solid color is a highly concentrated pigment, even if the surface is dirty, it will not affect the use of the color below. Most of the brands have both tube and solid forms, and most of them focus on solid color. I guess this is because solid color is more portable and easier to use than tube color, and has a wider audience. However, MG only has tube colors, DS has tube colors no solid colors only watercolor sticks. Also, although tube colors and solid colors use the same pigments, they can be slightly different in nature because of the different processes used to make them. For example, Holbein's tube pigments don't spread as well as solid colors, and DS's tube colors tend to dry out easily after being squeezed out and don't take well. After you have decided which brand you want to buy, it is better to check the characteristics of tube color and solid color first. Beginners always start with small paintings, so under 16K (about the size of A4 paper) can be done with solid color. It is only for larger paintings that you will need to use tube paints which are more convenient. The above are a few basic points to pay attention to when choosing watercolor paints, and if you pay attention to them, you won't make a mistake in the general direction. Next, let's talk about some of the characteristics of watercolor paints. When selecting watercolor paints, I have squinted at the B site to watch many brands of watercolor paint test video, constantly do comparison screening, but also really thank some of the landlord UP masters of selfless dedication. To sum up, through the UP master's display, we can see the following pigment qualities: 1. saturation, that is, the color of the degree of vibrancy. 2. transparency, some pigment particles large powder heavy, the transparency appears to be low. 3. diffusion, that is, the effect of the wet painting method. Spread a layer of water on the paper first, and draw the pigment on it before the water dries. Diffusibility of good pigments in the water will be dispersed. This method is generally used to render the background atmosphere.4. Water marks, is the reverse of the wet painting method. First paint on the paper, and then immediately drop the water, the pigment will be washed away by the water, forming a beautiful splash, creating a special texture effect.5. Mixed colors, the difference between different prices of pigments will be reflected in this item is very obvious. Mixing is also an important effect that watercolor needs to present. The effect of watercolor on paper can basically be seen in the above tests. I think for a novice to paint simple small paintings, the more important things are saturation, transparency and color mixing. As for diffusivity and water marks, although they look good when you do the tests, they are generally not used by novices. Unless, of course, you decide right off the bat that you want to paint large haloed areas (which require diffusion and color mixing) and water marks, as in this type of picture below. Then the following is the result of my own test after I bought a few pigments in separate packs, so feel free to take a look, just for reference. You can see that the cheaper pigments have poorer results in mixing colors. Especially the cherry blossom presents a dirty piece with no clarity. And the water marks of Smink Master are heavier, which is more difficult to control for newbies. ps. Such a test can't fully and strictly reflect the condition of the pigment, because there are too many variables to control, environment, moisture, time, paper, etc. Thank you for your patience in reading this. The next step is to say some more specialized vocabulary. (It's not really that esoteric, it's the markings on the official instructions for the watercolor paints you buy, here's an example of Sminky Master:) 1. Pigment grade. Pigment pigments are generally derived from metals, organics or synthetically. The harder the color is to extract, the higher the grade and the higher the price. The pigment grades of Smek are represented by circled Arabic numerals.2. Transparency: represented by squares, which are categorized as transparent, semi-transparent, semi-opaque, and opaque.3. Degree of coloring: represented by triangles. Watercolor can be tried to remove before drying, the higher the staining degree, the easier it is to soak into the paper, the more difficult it is to erase.4. Light resistance: light resistance is represented by stars, the more stars means the more stable the pigment is, the better the light resistance. For artists, of course, they hope their works can be preserved for a long time, so they should choose stable pigments with good light resistance. 5. pigment composition: the color of some cheap pigments is not a single pigment extracted, but synthetic. It can be imagined that the stability and color mixing effect of synthetic pigments are worse. The better the brand, the more single pigment pigments.6. English name and number: most of the quality pigments we now contact are foreign, then it is recommended to pay attention to their official English names, because the translated Chinese is easy to have errors or inconsistencies. In addition, the English name can also reflect the characteristics of the pigment from one side. For example, many pigments with metal or organic names, or with the word hue means synthetic pigments. Each pigment has a unique English name and number, so you can recognize it wherever you go in the world. I did focus on Schmincke, but I suppose other brands of pigments should be labeled in much the same way. Once you've matured in your painting skills, you can pick your own color scheme based on these properties, and develop a unique style.MG: Anyway, I've heard that everyone who uses it says it's good, and that they like every color. But where the specific good, I do not have much impression, tanya∥ armpit core crappy support cistanches and豢罡鞣矫嫘宰酆闲阅芏急冉隙ゼ獾摹 beautiful blue hummingbird: there is a painting of flowers of the painter highly recommended, characterized by a diffusion is very good (it should be possible to be the best), the color is bright and clear, the warm color system and the blue system is very beautiful.DS: should be the same as the overall performance of the MG is very good, and then there are a few very well known mineral color, and the color is very good, and then there are very good. The idea is to grind the gemstone directly into powder, really rustic! The result is a rich and variegated precipitation color. Of course, a novice must have bad control. Shen Nellier: the color is more bright, the other is not clear, with less people. Holbein: looking at the Internet, some people say it is a little fresh, some say it is colorful. I think it's probably in the middle, depending on what it's compared to. And then other comprehensive performance and a better pigment. Smink: the legendary gray, the Germans do things and their personality is the same as more calm and elegant will not be over. Meijiele: It is said to be the most beautiful, more beautiful than the Van Gogh known for its bright colors. Windsor Newton: the British do a little fresh, light color. College-level song text series suitable for novices. Van Gogh: online praise is a lot of, affordable, bright colors, comprehensively speaking is very suitable for novice one. White night: see a lot of students party first box of pigments are white night, the advantage is that the block is big, cheap, bright colors, the disadvantage is that the workmanship is rough. Rubens: domestic small pride, the new generation of fresh and beautiful colors, all aspects are still good, novice can try. Lucas and Rembrandt: more old pigments, not many people use now, the overall performance should be okay. I feel that the pigment visible more obvious difference is the color of small fresh and elegant or lively and beautiful, each has its own suitable style. Color bright and beautiful Van Gogh, South Korea, the United States Jiele suitable for painting exaggerated comics, character illustration, food illustration; elegant Windsor Newton suitable for literary style; if you paint realistic style, or use some of Europe and the United States old watercolor paint, such as Shimingke; painting a large area of works need to be large area halo, etc., it is a test of the comprehensive ability of the pigment, it is best to use some good pigments, such as beautiful blue hummingbird, MG, etc.. Having said that, it is still recommended that you decide to buy the main package before the purchase of a certain treasure to buy a sub-assembly, or buy the official out of the point trial card to personally experience the effect. Everyone has different preferences, so pick the right one for each! Split packs are usually artificially squeezed tubes of pigment into a split box for sale. The price is much cheaper than a large can, so you can use it to try out colors, or you can buy larger packs for particularly expensive paints. Watercolor paints are durable, and some of the dispensers may look small, but they can last a long time. Here are a few boxes of paints I've used. In the past half year, I have not bought many paints, they are cherry blossom solid color 24 colors, Chinese Windsor 24 colors tube, Van Gogh 40 colors, and Smink Master 12 colors, and there are also 3 small dispensers are basically almost used up. I used these two boxes of paints for about 2-3 months and did a lot of painting. The cherry blossom powder is too heavy and not transparent though. Dozens of dollars of domestic Windsor actually works okay, but after a period of time a lot of colors are degumming, so they have been abandoned. Now commonly used is Van Gogh and Schmincke. Van Gogh colors brighter, when I need to draw some small illustrations. The Smink Masters I bought in full blocks of 12 colors, plus a couple of half blocks of my own to get the job done. The greens and purples that come out of the Shmink mix are very nice and are used for small realistic landscapes. In the future, when my painting skills improve a bit, I plan to mix my own set of MG tube paints, but I guess that will be quite a while from now. Choosing paints is the same as choosing brushes, you have to know yourself and the right one. As a novice, it's hard to feel the subtle differences between different brands of paints at first. If I give the novice recommended paints: 1. price: limited funds for novice choice of mid-range, such as Van Gogh, Gwen, cost-effective are very high; tycoon novice please feel free, as long as you do not choose to have a difficult to control the characteristics of the pigment can be. 2. solid color or tube color: novice preferred solid color, such as painting a large number of times and then use the tube color will be more convenient. 3. color: I do not recommend to buy too many colors, 24 colors. More colors, the first is not conducive to the exercise of color mixing, the second can not remember to paint when picking eyes, and in fact, you can not distinguish between some of the nuances of the same color system. 4. There is a general newbie from copying the artist's work to begin with, if the artist with the price of the brand you can accept, then it can be the same model into the. 4. So, for novices in general with 200-300 yuan or so to buy one or two sets of 24-color solid color paints, weekly painting is enough to use a year and a half. Finally, the most important thing is to paint more and more to see different styles of work, in the practice on the one hand, continue to familiarize with the painting materials, on the one hand, to find their own favorite painting style. When you use a box of pigments to paint dozens of paintings, you will be very familiar with its characteristics, and then go to use other pigments can be a deep understanding of the differences, and the choice of new pigments will be more targeted. Above for the introduction of watercolor paints, I hope it can help you, I wish you all more and more paint better and better, refill!
