I've talked about these pigments more extensively in my other recent videos as well. 💧Gloves & Respirator? 🌿 YES. I should 100000% be wearing gloves and a mask. If I wasn't filming I would have. However, the last time I wore gloves in a paintmaking video, the sound of the gloves were unpleasant to listen to to many people. I decided for the sake of the video to omit them. However, yes. Gloves are very necessary especially if you are not working with pigments specifically made for Nihonga paintings. 💧 Why add honey? 🌿 this step is optional but i prefer to add it since it gives the paints a nice texture. it will also preserve moisture. 💧 Filming Equipment? 🌿 Camera: Sony A7rII Lens: Sony - FE 24-105mm F4 G Mic: Rode Video Mic Tripod: Slik Pro 500 DX 💧 Why don't the pigments fit back in after crushing them? 🌿 (Someone more knowledgeable, please correct me if I'm wrong) I'm assuming it's because the pigments were much more compact before being crushed. In its "rock" form, the powder is super compressed and tight which allows it to fit into the vials. 💧 Why make handmade paints rather than buying ones at the store? 🌿 It's kind of like cooking your own food. There are delicious meals you can buy from restaurants but food made from home is a different kind of delicious. Any other questions? 💧 🌿
