This is an A4 circle template/stencil made of good quality flexible plastic, with a great range of circle sizes. Easy to use whether just to draw in pencil or with paint. I've used it with both graphite and gouache paints, and it cleans easily. I would not use it with archival ink or any non water-based/distressing ink as it will stain the plastic. I'm happy with the product, but it's really pricey for what it is.
This pen holder looks small, but it's actually very roomy, holds tons of stuff and, that being the case, it saves desktop space. It rotates beautifully. No assembling required. It is made of good antique-white plastic, very skandie if you want, so it looks great anywhere you put it. Good value for money.
This
fridge container and organiser is made of durable plastic, it has
ventilation slots on the base,. It can be easily placed on a fridge tray
and stays in place without moving or falling. Good for small pieces of
fruit or snack veggies. As you can see in my photos, I put some small
pieces of fruit in it, which is sort of bulky and heavy, and the
container stands it without trouble.
However, this is a small
container (see my photo beside an A5 notebook) and the handles are bulky
so it bulks up the tray it holds onto, and you'll have to mind which
sort of container you place on that tray. So, in a way, it adds storage
space on the hanging part, but it reduces storage space on the tray it
hangs from.
Expensive for what it is.
UPDATE 8/5/22
The
basket slides out and falls on the floor when I get any container placed
on it out of the fridge. This is so because the two handle grips are
too wide for my fridge trays. This being the case, the product has
become a nuisance instead of what an organiser is is or intended to be.
This is a surprisingly good kit of drawing pencils with different degrees of softness, thickness and intensity at an excellent price. I have used several of them in my drawings, and I'm really happy with them. I would have loved having a charcoal stick included and the package to be a tin, not cardboard, but that's me being picky.
This
is a great minuscule push-pen eraser perfect to erase small areas in a
drawing or to create shades or highlights. See my photos for the size compared to an average pencil tip. It nicely erases most graphite
traces. Very comfortable to use and to put away. As the tip is tiny, the
dust generated is not much. I own a mono zero rectangle eraser but I
prefer this circular version, as it is way smaller and more practical.
MIND
The package texts are written in Japanese.
Due to the size of the rubber, this one doesn't last much. placing the rubber bar won't take much time.
I have many of these tubes. Needless to say, they aren't acrylic. They're cheap gouaches. However, the pigments are great and they are great value for money. Great for beginners on a budget. The sage colour is really pretty, especially when dry, but I have noticed that this tube is way runnier than other pigments. I've used this straight from the tube, without mixing it with water, and it has poor coverage and is really watery. Due to being water-based, the pigment dries lighter than the colour you get fresh from the tube.
I have mixed feelings about this eraser. To be frank, I expected this to
be excellent, because Arteza is a reputed arts supplier. However, this
pack didn't match my expectations.
THE GOOD
> The rubber part is excellent and removes graphite traces that other good-brand erasers don't.
> These pencils are really perfect to erase small areas and for shading/ highlighting.
>
I initially thought that the sharpener was unnecessary, as I have
plenty of similar sharpeners. However, this one is especially designed
to sharpen rubber and, after using it, I've realised that this is the
one that sharpens the rubber perfectly.
> The brush is perfect to remove eraser/graphite dust.
> Good value for money as there are FIVE pencil erasers with attached brush plus the sharpener.
NOT SO GOOD
> When sharpening the eraser, part of it is wasted.
> If, by any chance, you use the sharpener a a bit over, the fine point rubber will break and it will be wasted.
> The brush is too stiff. I would rather have one stand alone medium quality brush than one bad one attached to each pencil.
> Due to the rubber waste mentioned above, these pencils last less than smaller fine push-up erasers.
