The art looks like it belongs to a book for children where they learn different stuff as the types of mushrooms, trees, animals, ect.. The kitty explorer is a very cute character and i would love to see what its next adventure will be.

I love seeing more scenes with Kit! He’s so cute, and the piece is amazing! ❤
I almost never use metallic colours in sets, I’d prefer more colours in a pack of any art supplies. If I need a metallic colour I go search for it separately from a pack in the store.

This review is so useful. 🎉

For what I use paint markers for, metallic markers are a MUST. But I don’t make art like this, I use them for decoration of non-paper items. Recently I was making wooden ornaments & would’ve LOVED these- good flow of ink in tiny nibs? Yes please!! I was doing Xmas themes so really needed those metallics lol.

I don’t know if that’s any help lol. Basically I agree with you entirely- it comes down to what you use the pens for.

Also WOW this came out SO GOOD. I was already sold by the concept, I’m a sucker for light play pictures, but I LOVE the finished product ❤❤❤

I really like how the artwork turned out, such a fun and bold style. The light effect from the lantern with the different shades is amazing and I like the different colors of the lineart too. It's gorgeous. :D

Also, I almost never use the metallic colors in any set, because I have a favorite gold watercolor paint that I use for my gold needs, and so far none of the metallic art supplies were as good for me as that watercolor paint. So they are just sitting in my drawer waiting to be used.

Thank you for a thorough review. ❤❤❤
Nice to see Kit again, I’ll never get tired of seeing you draw him.

[peachesyuson]

I really like the colors on this drawing. Your technique is very nice. ❤

[jaewonwinter]

I saw these a few weeks ago, so glad you did a review on them!

[CallMeTippy]

That illustration is so freaking cute!!

[HART-skbz]

I absolutely adore the art you created in this video ❣️

[anita]

Oh wow, your art piece is gorgeous, and the lantern/light idea is so cool! 😻😻😻

I haven’t watched this channel for a while, just been busy, but I forgot how much I love your accent (used to love when you said “light fast” in a pen test vid).

I hope to pick some of these pens up soon

[BigBadWolframio]

It turned out beautiful! Kit is such a fun character 😊❤

I am personally not big on gold and silver markers. They're nice for some details, but not essential, imo.

[wolfiestsm]

I love a good shiny and vivid gold an silver

[KodawithSoda]

I've been watching you since i was in middle school and i still look forward to seeing your videos now as an adult <3

[Aimz]

I used paint markers on illustration boards (think it was a Scrawlrbox) and the markers somewhat ate through it. I watched a youtuber review the same box and someone mentioned in the comments to gesso the surface first to reduce the pilling.

[rangda]

Your reviews are always a favorite of mine! When it comes to paint pens I like having the Metallics- because I usually used metallic paint pens whenever I am adding metallic details to anything. But if it was paint pens specifically I would prefer more greys and browns in the set.

[Its_Remyy]

I'd really love to see you revisiting this review/doing a piece with you using the copics in tandem with your poscas! I feel like a lot of us who have poscas already have a decent amount, so the question would be more 'how do these work with poscas' and 'how do they work on other surfaces'. Loving all the Kit art! I certainly use the metallic colors, but I think having them as a separate pack isn't a bad idea--a set of like, different golds and silver goes a lot further than just one of each. Do you know if these are lightfast?

[slateportraichu]

Thank you for testign and honest review=3 Ahhh, I love your style so much=) Wish you a wonderful week=)

[maramakesjournals]

Thanks! I ❤️ your video and your art. I like that ring of light. 💜💜❤️🥰

[spikestreak]

I really like how the lighting turned out! Would be really cool as a print
