Art Advantage Left Hand Mannequin

if i could give this a two and a half star rating i'd have done so but i can't, and two seems a little harsh.

anyways for what it is, it's not that bad, yet not amazing either. i bought it cause i was working on a piece of armour for a hand and needed to mount it on something. this seemed like the best solution at the time but turned out to not work at all. this was because the thumb isnt really all that moveable, it can move at the joint as seen in the picture, but (for people with a little anatomy knowledge) the flexor pollicis brevis area is totally solid and therefor constrains many of the natural looking positions a hand should be able to display. otherwise, the fingers moved quite nicely and naturally but only in the direction of the joints, in other words, they can't be splade outwards.

i can see that for a (very) basic sketching of a hand or displaying some jewellery this might be usefull, but otherwise for the price i ended up paying with shipping i'd reccomend looking for something else or making a chiken wire modle hand in the position you need as i did for my project. that depends on how 'hands' on you feel like getting.. sorry i had to :P

Royal Sketching & Drawing Studio Artist Set

I bought this product to take with me when I travel, I have already used it and was so nice to have everything in one place. I usually have to carry an assortment of art supplies and this was just so much easier.

This is easy for any age. My 10 year old uses it on his own with little help from us. It is great for starters!

This is a nice package that is good for a budding amateur like me. I like the variety of a drawing selections but if your going to get serious then the built in easel is not going to be much help. I use a drafting board instead of the easel as I can then put the drawing box next to it for convince. For the price it is a good deal.

Buddha Board Easel, Black Laptop

The Budda Board is endlessly entertaining. I gave three of these for gifts to artists, two of whom are in their 80s and they are loving them. I wish I had ordered one for myself. I tried it in a store display and another before gifting and it is a wonderful, unusual, yet simple thing. You paint with water on the board and it stays there for awhile then slowly vanishes. It is perfect for those practicing brush-stroke painting or caligraphy. I recommend this for anyone needing diversion in a calm, non-technical way. If you order one, get a spare to donate to a nearby long-term care center, children's hospital or waiting room.

I bought this as a gift for a coworker and it has been a huge hit around the office. When it first came I was disappointed because it is just such a simple thing. All you do is take some water, paint the board and then watch it disappear as it dries.

Little did I know that the Buddha Board would soon be a major addiction. Whenever the workplace becomes a little too stressful I just whip out the paintbrush and paint away.

What I love the most is the way it dries. You can watch as your picture morphs and changes through the subtraction of lines and shapes. It just feels so good to create a bit of art that will not last. There is no need for perfection. You just paint what you feel.

Love this so much I'm buying one for myself and a few for presents for friends. Highly recommended.

The Budda Board is a great tool for relaxation, especially after a busy day.When using it I become so engrossed in it.It makes everything slip away from my mind.I find peace, harmony and joy.I am renewed with energy and calmness at the same time. I would recommend this to everyone!This was given to me by my husband for no special reason other than he may have thought I needed to have something to use as a method of relaxation other than a book or a crossword puzzle.

My only complaint is it took a long time for delivery.Far longer than we had anticipated. FedEx did keep us apprised of when we could expect it, but we were both anxious to receive it faster than we did.We did not ask for any special delivery services.

I was introduced to the Buddha Board through friends who own it and thought that it would benefit me. I have to say, it's one of the neatest things I have ever purchased. Any time I have a bad day at work, I whip out the Board and paint out my anxieties (and sometimes exactly what I am feeling) just to watch it disappear before my eyes. It is quite therapeutic. Yes, your work of art disappears but with it goes the stress of having to be perfect in your work. I have heard other reviewers saying that they use their board for calligraphy, and that would be absolutely perfect. I think I may try that.

My only complaint about this specific board is that the brush is low quality and the bristles shed all over the board. However, if you find that you have this problem you can easily purchase a new one at your local craft store (Just make sure the bristles are soft as hard bristles could easily damage this board).

For those who are hesitating purchasing this item, don't. It's worth every penny of the price and I have already bought several for gifts and plan to buy several more for the holidays. It's one gift that is as functional as it is fun.

I bought this for my wife a month or so ago and she loves it to practice her Japanese writing skills. Just use water on the brush and it paints and gradually fades away. You can use any brush on the board, if you want detail or big fat strokes. The only difficulty is figuring out how much water to put on the brush when I've tried it I've ended up with a few dark blobs which didn't dry out for quite a while. That said, they did eventually and the board was ready to use again!

Bought this for displaying a fairly large poster sized picture. It worked perfectly for presenting at a meeting as well. It folds up to next to nothing, maybe a legal sized pad with little to no fuss in getting broken back down. It'll be perfect for meeting that we have to move around other sites to.

This thing is alittle flimsy. If you look at it wrong it wants to fall apart. But it does the job.

Royal Artist Drawing Easel Art Set With Easy To Store Bag

This kit says that it is good "for any budding keen or professional artist", but it really is designed for children. Half of the pencils were broken when I received the kit and it really just is kind of flimsy. Great for a child, don't waste your time if you're an adult.

i sent this to my daughter. she loved it. she was very pleased with the quality. i dont draw, myself, but she said it was awesome. she really liked all the chalk/crayons.

Product contained all items in description. Set up was simple and the easel seems sturdy and easy to use. The bag is great because my daughter loves to take it with her to the grandparents, and everything (including her sketch pads) fit nicely into the bag.

The one thing I didn't like about it is that the drawer can be a little tricky to slide in and out becuase it tends to bind, but other than that it's a great product.

Crayola Dry Erase Board Set

This is a basic white board, but instead of markers it comes with crayons. They can be easily removed from this and other white boards with the enclosed eraser cloth. The crayons make dark, rich markings on the board and on regular paper. It does not have the yucky white board eraser smell. So far, it has washed off our clothes and a blanket in the regular wash, although it is not labeled as "washable". My 2 year old son has fun with these, and it is light enough to be portable. We especially enjoyed this on a recent plane trip.

Got this for my 5 year old for a long car ride...hope its not warm..crayons got very soft with just a little bit of heat! Very messy, leaves a flakey mess that will not come off leather seats. Stick to the Dry-ease markers!!

My 2 year old got this for her birthday. She regularly colors it in from top to bottom, she loves the thing. Then she brings it to me to clean up. The included glove is better at removing the crayons from the board than a paper towel, but still makes me work up a sweat and gives me a great upper body workout. Then she colors it in again... and the process repeats. I noticed the black is almost impossible to get off, the blue is much easier. So, I hate this thing... she loves it.

Update: So, while the glove that comes with it is absolutely useless, Clorox wipes take all the crayon right off. So, we now clean it up with those. Problem solved and the kids still love this thing.

I got a set of these crayons awhile back because my daughter said that she had wanted some but I didn't think that they would be worth it. I was wrong! I am a teacher and I use them almost everyday in my classroom. They are very easy to use and they do wipe right off (sometimes if I press too hard I may have to use a little elbow grease to get the crayon off but I have never not had the crayon come off).

So I bought this for my daughter and she loved them too! She likes to pretend she is a teacher and this is a great and cheap product. Plus it helps her to practice her writing (she is 4).

I love it and would have given it 5 stars except it does leave a slight greasy residue that is hard to write over if you use anything other than the crayons (i.e. dry erase marker) and some of the colors are really light for a whole class presentation but if it is single use it is not so bad.

My daughter requested a dry erase board for CHRISTmas this year. After reviewing the numerous reviews I must say I was a little hesitant to purchase this particular product. My daughter is 8, and she loves to play school and doodle in the car..I will share both dislikes and like so you will have the pleasure of making a sound decision on this product. Dislikes.....these boards are small, almost like a 5x7 picture frame, crayons come off on hands and will come off on anything they touch, wipes to clean boards really don't do it very well...baby wipes are better, there is a black board and white-the black board is extremely hard to clean and doesn't show up very well, crayons wear down easily, no place to hand on walls or such must hold.LIKES....great for the car (considering the child is old enough not to touch anything else)If this product were bigger I think older kids would enjoy it more. I would only recommend it as a car essential for older kids in hopes they were still into hangman or tic tac toe.I recommend going to the store and looking at this product before you buy it!!
