After seeing this, I had a suspicion that would be in your favorites.
I was right.

This piece is superb. You have every right to be proud.
....and now it's in my favorites.

Just because you are inspired by certain artists does not mean you should be compared to them. You are a unique individual with a unique artistic style.
Perhaps in certain ways you have already surpassed your idols.
Just sayin'...

It probably won't matter if they don't, there must be tonnes of brands as good or better for the money. I can't really compare, because they're the only brand of watercolour pencils I've ever used. I'd imagine any student grade pencils can get the job done, you just need to put down multiple layers, and highlight stuff vivid reds and yellows.

Yeah, there has to be. Prismacolor is good but it's crazy expensive. A pack of 48 costs like $60. Maybe they're just like the Apple of color pencil makers in that there are just as good of brands out there for cheaper but because of a crazy ego on their part, they think that just because their name is slapped on there that they can charge twice as much as it's really worth.

Well, I checked the Mont Marte website, and it looks like they're only available in Australia. But there would be some good American brands out there that are also affordable, a tip would be to avoid huge chain stores like Walmart, and look in and around smaller, privately owned shops.

Is it a female character? Because chateau is a masculine word, so if it is a female character it does not suit very well. But the picture is beautiful.

She's named after the Chateau D'yquem wine, so yeah, I didn't really take any gender biases into account.
