Watercolour Paint Set 36 Vivid Colors in Pocket Box with Metal Ring and Bonus Watercolor Brush, Perfect for Beginners & More

I bought these paints having not long since got back into watercolour painting. The original paints I tried to start with were far too cheap and were chalky, wouldn't mix on the paper and cracked into dust when they dried. So coming from that background, I wanted a better quality set and found this set with excellent reviews and competitively priced.What can I say? They are delightful to use, creamy and silky on the brush, melt together beautifully on the paper and dry perfectly. The colours are very rich and deeply pigmented so you only use a little. While I'm no expert, I can say I'm thoroughly enjoying using them and would highly recommend them.

I'll start off by saying, I'm not a beginner watercolourist, I've been painting with this medium for years, but as a hobby, i enjoy adult colouring books, some take watercolour really well, Hannah Karlzon books in particular. When I'm messing around for my own enjoyment, I didn't want to use my professional grade watercolours, so i took a chance and bought these, not knowing anything about them, and i have to say how utterly impressed i am with them. The choice of colours is varied and good, the paints themselves are bright and vibrant and don't lose that vibrancy upon drying. I can't believe how highly pigmented they are, and they don't dry chalky either. just a sweep with your brush over your chosen colour and your brush is loaded with paint, no scrubbing for ages to pick up the colour. I actually have a few Winsor and Newton half pans that lack the intensity of colour that these paints have, and they're professional artist grade at £5 per half pan. Admittedly, I've only used these in colouring books when I'm relaxing, but I'll be testing them out to do a larger scenic piece. I don't know how lightfast they are, there's not a lot of info included. This set came with a pre written swatch card, which i found handy. The box lists all the colours, but it's wrong. The swatch card inside is thankfully correct though. The tin is as well made as a more expensive brand, and i like the simplicity of it. It's also a nice blue colour which is more cheerful than the usual black. In conclusion, I'd heartily recommend these paints, they're a joy to use.

Good colours, easy to activate, good results so far

If you are on the fence about getting these paints, then jump right off and buy them now! You seriously will not get a better set of this amount of colours, for anywhere near this price. They melt easily into water, are very highly pigmented, a little really does go a long way. They are beautifully bright and dry without any chalky residue.The one thing that there is to “grumble” about, is that they are set into a moulded plastic tray, rather than individual pans, but that really is a minor gripe. The metal pan that they come in is great though, nice mixing wells in the lid and plenty sturdy enough! Overall, they are an absolute steal.

A lovely watercolour set. The pans are small, but you get a lot of them in a wide range of colours.The tin is sturdy and big enough to fit extra pens and brushes for painting on location.I'm very happy with this set recommended to me by other artists.

I bought these about year ago when I wanted to attempt watercolour painting. I didn't want to spend too much money on them because when I've tried in the past, frankly, I was absolutely pants at it.I didn't expect much even though the reviews were good so home they came.A year on Iv e used them a few times and can absolutely recommend them! There's a great selection of colours. They mix beautifully and they don't go crumbly. The tin they come in feels nice and is easy to pop in a bag if you want to take it on your travels. FIVE STARS!

Arrived on time, beautifully packed, and easy to open. The colours are gorgeous and plenty to pick from. I’ve had these before 24 colours, they are lovey to use, blend and granulate lovely. The colours are well pigmented so you don’t need too much paint. Good wet on wet and wet on dry I will definitely get them again

I am a beginner to painting and find the colour differences puzzling. The paint in the pans do not match up with the enclosed leaflet or on the box.Can someone explain, or how do I find out what the colours actually are?
