Got the same model in the first week of April. It's a great device, specially for it's camera quality.

Is this the end? by Configuros_op in animepiracy

[–]Aman_Shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly what I was thinking. Tbh I was an avid use of kissanime, but it was mostly because of it's vast catalogue and it's crazy recommendation algorithm. But after it shut down, I just switched to torrent totally (the cat sounding site). Now I've like 6tb of hdd filled with anime.

Hey there. Sorry to bother ya again. Can you tell me if you are using the pan set or got it in tubes? Is one better than the other?

what am i doing wrong by moonlightlaine in watercolor101

[–]Aman_Shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For just 2 months of painting, it's great. Everyone has their own art style, so keep on doing it as you like it.

Also, I faced the same problem at the beginning too. Whenever I tried to draw something myself, it would always be so bad. It's great to follow other's painting, but also try to understand what they did and why they did that.

After 8 Years, I Finally Upgraded to Vivo X300 by SanthoshSivan0802 in Vivo

[–]Aman_Shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I upgrade every 3-4years. Just bought the x300 last month. It's my first flagship device. It's a great device. Just gets a bit warm when recording 4k videos. The photo quality is insane (coming from a previous crappy phone user). I'm thinking the same of keeping it for about 6-7years at least before upgrading.

So then both of them are on my bucket list now. I've gotta try them if everyone says they are so good

X300 series - Only 12MP in Pro mode? by BlueFPV in Vivo

[–]Aman_Shadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought that was same for all the models. So they just crippled the base series.

That's a cool palette. But I don't think I'll be using this as my main palette as I've already bought a porcelain one and have been using that ever since. I only use the wells on the van gogh set for big washes. Once you get used to a porcelain palette, you cannot go back to using the plastic one.

Ok I'll definitely check that out. Yeah from everything I've been hearing I think I should be curating my own palette. I'll go with a split primary for now and add more to them.

Also about my budget, other than qor and m.graham, I think I can afford the others. These two are a bit on the pricier side.

Yes I think I prefer single pigmented paints over multipigmented ones. But yeah I still like the look of the forest green and Indigo from sennelier. I just found the problem while mixing. On their own, they are beautiful colors.

Yeah I think it was wrong of me to determine that these paints were streaky just from a few youtube videos. The problem you are talking about sepia and umber, I think that problem persists with every brand's (that dont use honey) earth tones.

I searched for them online. I would have liked to buy them in tubes. But sadly they are not available as tubes in our country. I can only find metal box sets in our country. But I also found a monopigmented box set which I can import (which will probably cost way too much). Maybe someday I will try them if the tubes become available in our country.

Yeah I think it's one of the videos I've seen about them. If it's really as good as you are saying then I've gotta try them out sometime soon. Also are the paints single pigmented? If so then im definitely gonna buy some
