My Museum

I know that as much as possible we want to buy affordable materials for a hobby but compromising on the quality is often a bad decision. I’ve been wanting to try “color pencils” for sometime now and I thought maybe for a starter I’d try cheaper unknown brands and went for a set in one of the stores nearby my house. Lured by the cheap pricing, I went for it and regretted later. This piece of work could’ve turned out a lot better. Colors were faded and not exact. I still was able to use them but am truly disappointed with the turn out. So fro someone who’ve been there, done that, if you want quality work and result, don’t compromise, buy good quality products and branded mediums. There’s a reason they are pricy, they have better quality.
