Art *materials* Trade

[Brianhjh]

Ok... It was the fall of 2003, and I was just starting art, and I had two paper routes, so I had pelnty money left over... to make the story short...


I spent about 500$ on art materials


Not mentioning that it was probably good for my art, to have all that top-of-the-line materials when I was a beginner, but...


[b]I only use about 3 of the 6 kind of art materials I've bought. [/b]



so, instead of just sitting in my closet, I've decided to see if anyone wanted it, for a trade...


[b]What I want: (more of)[/b]

Any kind of artist gouache paints (opaque watercolor)
Nupastels (prismacolor) and other hard pastels
Prismacolor markers
Pen nibs
Soft erasers
ink liners (steadtler preferred)


[b]What I have, and need to get rid of:[/b] :angry:


45 almost mint Derwent watercolor pencils

These are pencil crayons that after you draw with them, it turns into watercolor as you dab it with water, never used it because I ALSO got watercolor paints and they are actually cheaper.


40 Almost mint Derwent Pastel pencils

Practically mint set of 6 W&N artisan oil paints

[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v233/Brianhjh/Untitled-4.jpg[/img]

These oil paints can be mixed with water at ease, meaning you don't have to buy oil to thin them. I would have liked this medium if it took less than 10 days for it to actually dry enough for it to be scanned. I'll add some mini paintstiks for free.

And finally, 5 Violetblue-Violetred Derwent signature pencil crayons, never used.

These are miracle pencils crayons because they're purple, and they're

LIGHTFAST
how cool is that?




You can make monetary offer, but that would make it look like I'm selling things on the forum... :ph34r:

Out of curiosity, what do you mean by 'soft erasers'? Are you talking about kneaded erasers or something else?

[Brianhjh]

OK, this is the average price for prismacolors

http://www.dickblick.com/zz205/08/



It says 90cents per each, pricey, no? but they are so much softer, brighter and last (the color) so much longer than crappy crayola. <_< , plus, the pigment is more compact, meaning that a lot more color comes out in one stroke.

I'll take nearly half of that and say each costs 50 cents, that would be:


$37.50 I'll knock off that ugly decimal and call it 35, if you want to buy the whole thing (it comes with two whites and a blender)


free shipping if you give me some erasers. (Arkansas, from Canada, that wouldn't be too bad, would it? :huh: )


EDIT: I have the original box too, it becomes a collapsable drawer or something...

[Brianhjh]

actually, me being selfish here, I think there's a better way.



Can you order 48-set of this:

http://www.dickblick.com/zz200/34/


and a 9x12 pad of this?:

http://www.dickblick.com/zz106/01/



and ship it to me? (166 xxxx pl. Waterloo, Ontario, Canada)

I don't know how you're going to give me the money when the conversion rate is changing so much everyday.


It was better when 1 American was 1.30 Canadian...





and I wil ship you:


75 colored pencils
the thick Collapsable box
pencil extender (nifty)
and a complementary drawing? (optional)



EDIT: you had prisma before?

I don't have much drawing material... A scrapbook that costed about 12 dollars, normal HB pencil with one 6B pencil and 3H but I never use them much... The 6B is almost useless but my art teacher wanted us to by those so I had to...
I got crayola coloring pencils and lauretien as well... and that's about all I've got.. With a sort of cheap pencil eraser that works wonderfuly

You guys suck. I'm waaaay over on the other end of Canada, the west coast. I'm practically the only person on these forums from BC, besides Denis. :(

I wish I could buy those Prismas, but I just spent about $60 on imported manga. =_=;

[quote]I bet my mom would get curious of why I'd be wanting to send those supplies you want to some random address in Canada.[/quote]
Just tell her that you're trading art supplies with a friend. o_o;

ok...so i buy you the pastels and the pad to get the pencils and all the little accesories? I think just mailing you 35.00 american dollars would be easier seeing as how there are no art stores around me (well thats why i want the pencils, the closest one is really far... )

XD Tell her it's an internet friend. You don't need to know people in person to send letters and stuff, right? So it shouldn't matter.
