Review: Lovely, inexpensive set; excellent pigmentation - Gorgeous, creamy & vibrant colors! The blooms these cause are lovely and they blend nicely. High quality at a reasonable cost. Will continue to purchase these colors! Swatch them first. I do wish the little plastic insert that holds the color trays was off a higher quality and not cheap, fragile plastic. Love the storage tin, however! Nice texture and no weird scent. The greens and reds in this set work incredible on cold and rough texture poster.
Review: Awesome set for the price - My regular practice watercolors are Cotman pans, I use them for practice, studies and on the go painting, and the palettes are really hard to beat for portability, mixing areas , the transparency of colors which is important when you begin learning watercolors and affordability when you need new pans. I wanted something larger but no too large to be able to take a couple of larger brushes , and also needed to buy extra color half pans. I found this set, read about them and for the price of just a new metal palette similar in size (like other reviewers have posted) + $6 I decided to take a chance. And I am very happy I did. This set is truly transparent except for a couple of colors, zero chalkiness, they re wet easily and won't rub off the paper after dry. The tin itself is well made, it has a ring at the bottom. The brush is not of use for me because it is very soft and has no much body to it. This set is perfect for practice, I wouldn't use them for final works because there is no light fastness rating compared to my Cotmans for example, but if you use them in your covered sketchbook they should be fine. At first it might seem like there are many similar colors but you'll get surprised once you start mixing. Also having 34 colors the set will last you for a while, considering you can't buy half pans separately. Many of the colors actually granulate very nice which is a nice surprise. This set is way better than other cutesy brands, I was gifted a set of Koi and gave them away because they were so chalky and good only for coloring but not mixing and learn about watercolors. You can actually practice well with this set. I have attached some photos for your comparison with Cotman colors. You have every color you need if you are just beginning with this set and instead of buying more colors or more expensive paint to begin with try buying good paper to really enjoy watercolor and a good brush.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these water colors chalky?**
A: No they are very nice... check out review done just recently by Lindsay Weiric (The frugal crafter) She highly recommends them... check out her blog she is always very honest and very experienced water colour artist

**Q: Are these better than Sakura koi watercolor set? Are they chalky and have a nice range of skin colors? Is the water brush good?**
A: I have this set and Koi. I love this set because of the vibrancy of the colors, no problem with mixes turning to mud, and not chalky. I've painted light and medium skin tones with both;  and light, medium, and dark skin tone with Koi. I haven't used the brush yet but as close as I've been about to figure out, it's a Size 3 with pointed end. I hope that helps.

**Q: Does the set include skin tones?**
A: It depends on what you mean. There a colors like yellow ochre and some rose colors that mix light skin tones easily. There are also sepia/umber browns that can be the base of darker skin tones. But it's not like some of the premade pastel skin tone palettes out there; this is a more balanced selection that can mix virtually anything without muddiness.

**Q: How big are the pans?**
A: Around half pan size.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful, creamy, rich colors!
*by C***E on November 24, 2025*

Not sure why I am reviewing these. I read through a bunch of the reviews and it has all been said. My set arrived in pristine condition and I am so pleased with the quality. I used the included pen to test the colors and I really liked how the color laid down. I still need to do some testing but so far I am very pleased.
