I've never heard of water soluble oil pastels. I work with water soluble oils, and I have tried oil pastels but don't use them on a regular basis. I can research this for you and hopefully give you a better answer soon. Update. I found a great deal of information on WetCanvas.com in their oil pastel forum. You may want to check there for more detailed. Basically you can just apply water to blend out the color instead of turps like you would with regular oil pastels. You can apply it dry and just layer it, or wet it to give a watercolor effect. You can also wet the surface and then apply it. Experimentation is the key. The related link will give you more detail

Vincent Van Gogh used oil pastels with short strokes with several colours then layered it with watercolors the oil pastels repel the water as it is wax this leaves a great effect and this is how he uses oil pastels

Watercolor pencils are designed to be used as an intermediary medium between sketching and painting. Colors can be built up using the pencils in a similar fashion to shading with ordinary pencils, however once applied to paper, moisture can be added to 'smudge' the effect and mix the colors together

you use oil pastels like crayons, or you use them by rubbing them very hard on a piece of paper being able to blend the colors or make them smoother looking, like a chalk type of look

Can you use cardstock for watercolor painting?

I have found watercolor paper to be very good for marbling, because it remains strong when wet. The only drawback I have found is its thickness, which can be a disadvantage in some of the traditional uses of marbled paper such as endpapers in books. If the marbled paper will be freestanding, such as for a greeting card, watercolor is a good choice, but if you plan to glue the marbled paper to another surface, and especially if you will have to fold it, look for a thinner paper.
