Custom Painted Tools

Many friends can't tell the difference between Oil Pastels, crayons, and watercolor pens. Today, as a crayola crayon factory for kids, we'll introduce these three things to you before getting custom painted tools.

 

Custom Painted Tools - crayons


Before ordering a large quantity of custom painted tools, the first step is to tell the difference betwen some painted tools. Now, let's have a look at them.


What's the difference between Oil Pastels And Crayons?

Crayons are mainly made of wax, while oil pastels are made of a mixture of nondry oil and wax. In addition to the differences in composition, there are many differences between the Oil Pastels And Crayons:

 

When drawing with crayons, it takes a lot of effort to draw a complete color area, but the oil painting stick is relatively easy and smooth, which is suitable for large-area color spreading.

 

The color of the oil painting stick is very rich, soft, and creamy. Therefore, it is easy to mix colors, and you can easily rub the mixed colors with your fingers, which is similar to the feeling of wiping the lead core mixed color layer in the sketch. But the crayon is relatively hard, so the colors don't mix well. Of course, it may be particularly easy to get color on your hands when using oil sticks, but it's usually not so easy when using crayons.

 

Because the oil painting stick is relatively thick, it will have a sense of layered accumulation of oil painting, and the crayon may not be so good. The oil stick can cover the picture of the crayon, just as it can cover many other surfaces - glass, wood, canvas, metal, stone; But crayons can only draw on paper.

 

What's the difference between Crayon And Watercolor?

  1. A crayon is a painting pen made of paraffin wax, beeswax, etc. as the carrier, dispersing the pigment in the molten wax, and then cooling and solidification. Custom painted tools with dozens of colors? Crayons are a good choice. They are an ideal tool for children to learn color painting. Some painters use them to sketch and record colors. When crayons paint, they are not likely to be moistened by water. They will have a soft and casual feeling, and paper crayons will have different effects according to different paper crayons.
  2. Watercolor pen is a commonly used painting tool for children. The material of the pen head is generally carbon fiber. It is usually sold in a box of 12, 24, and 36 colors. The pen head is generally round. The two colors are not easy to reconcile. It is generally suitable for children's painting and can also be used as a marking pen. The watercolor pen is very suitable for young children in kindergartens and primary schools. If the child is older, it is recommended to buy other painting materials for the child. The watercolor pen is only used as an auxiliary tool.
  3. Crayons have no permeability and are fixed on the picture by adhesion. They are not suitable for too smooth paper and board, nor can they obtain composite colors through repeated superposition of colors. The crayon has a strong visual impact and is easy to modify, but the painting is not particularly smooth, the texture is rough, and the color is not particularly bright. It looks dark and will melt in case of high temperature.
  4. The watercolor pen is water-based, if you want to get effects with rich, bright, transparent, and natural changes, when you choose custom painted tools, you can consider it. It can be painted brightly on paper without force, and it is not easy to break. The disadvantage is that it cannot be modified. It can only cover light colors with heavy colors. The coverage ability is poor. You need to have the skills to paint colors on general paper. If there is no difference in-depth, it is suitable for delicate and flexible effects. Watercolor pens can easily paint a large area, but watercolor pens of two colors are not easy to reconcile together.


It is commonplace for them with difference, if you have material require, custom painted tools is a wise choice. If you are looking for varied customized painted tools, we hope to be your choice and provide you with high-quality painted tools.
