So horrible....but I love them!
I have been painting with watercolors for 30+ years and own brands of: American Journey, M. Graham, MaimeriBlu, Winsor Newton and Daniel Smith. I would recommend that artist should select a brand or selected colors from professional paints and stick with it until all the nuances are learned. You have to know and understand your materials to make professional results. Zoltan Szabo gave me this advice years ago when I attended one of his workshops and it has served me well!
Don't worry about permanence just play with them! After all your paintings are probably not going to hang in the Louvre! The paints are dye based and full of fillers, hence, the metal palette will and does stain slightly. There is enough room in the paint box to place another row of half pans down the center, turning it into an 18 color set. Take some of your favorite colors from the tropical or decadent pie sets to make your custom master palette. The paints are bright when applied but lighten slightly once applied like all watercolors.
The metal box is well constructed and has nicely rolled edges so you won't get cut. If you remove the tray, holding the half pans, you could get cut if your reckless! I guess if you have to be warned about this then maybe you should be warned that paint brushes have pointy ends so you don't poke yourself in the eye! Removing the tray allows access to 4 more mixing wells which in quite inventive. The closed box measures 5" x 2 3/4" x 1" tall, open it measures 5" x 8 1/8" x 1". The box has a finger ring on the bottom to make it easier to hold in one hand.
Some people complain far to much about this little set. "The pans are lose and slide around". Just use them a little bit and some paint will dry around the bottom of each pan and they will stick and not slide. "The paint stains the palette!" OCD is a pain isn't it! Get over it and let the palette look like its been used! I've seen beautiful paintings made with a paper plate palette a twig and copy paper. "The ugly sticker won't come off!" If you can't figure out how to remove a sticker you shouldn't have a drivers license! "The paint beads up on the palette!" Rough it up a little with a Brillo pad! Geeze...people complain to much! Some Artists are the most resourceful people I have ever known, unfortunately, some are also too whinny.
December 20, 2017. Holy schmagoli! These little goomers have gone up 60% since I bought them earlier in the year! I guess Jeff Bezos has determined that having $100 Billion dollars net worth isn’t enough! At this price these little gremlins are just not worth the expense!
Now for the paints:
#01 Opaque White,
#02 Fuschia (Rosy Pink), add 06 Green for a yellow Ochre, add 07 Teal for a nice lavender, add 09 Violet for Cobalt red violet or a cotman purple lake hue which is great for flowers.
#03 Dark Red (Scarlet?),
#04 Orange, add 07 Teal for a nice sap green, add 08 Blue for a Burnt Umber,
#05 Cool Yellow, add a touch of #12 Black yields a nice sap green,
#06 Green, a good basic Green that can be turned into a wide variety of green shades.
#07 Teal (Turquoise), mixed with #02 Fuschia yields a nice lavender.
#08 Ultramarine Blue,
#09 Violet,
#10 Sepia?,
#11 Gray, add 08 Ultra Blue for a Slate Blue. Add 09 Violet for lavender,
#12 Black,
The colors all go well together, and there are no duplicated colors.
It says artist quality. I think they go down, more like student grade paints, however the paint is highly pigmented, like artist grade. If you are very used to traditional watercolor paints, you may not like this brand at first. It takes some getting used to, so I hope you give it a chance.
The tins they come on are excellent qulity, and I like them better than the tin cases that come with much more expensive paints.
There is good granulation, and mixing colors goes very well.
Most colors are not transparent, but slightly opaque, unless you use lots of water.
There is some question about light fastness, But after two weeks in a very sunny window, under the bright southern sun, there is little change with most of the colors. I think the light fast rating must be pretty good.
This paint mixes well with watercolor mediums, egg yolk, honey. there was no flaking or chipping when using egg yolk.
im happy with this paint, and aspire to learning to use it to my advantage.
Once I started painting, I can see this is going to last a long, long time. The colors are so concentrated that a tiny bit goes a long way. I barely put any paint on the tip of the brush and it spreads to cover a large area. I made the mistake to dip out of the pan and paint, wow, deep color...I since learned to dip in the pan then mix on the tin so it's sheer. I am impressed with the density of color.
I was using colored pencils but my RA in my hands make it difficult to color more than a small area. I thought to try paint and am happy to say I can now color a large area without difficulty or pain in my hands. I use a water pen and am set to go. Love this compact size and the colors mix amazingly well to make many different variations and shades from the basic mix.

I have some other sets, Windsor and Newton, Reeves and a little Daniel smith set. All of them have left me pretty uninspired to they've say on the shelf for years. As soon as I opened these I needed to have a go!
Lovely packaging... Which I ripped off in a matter of minutes because I was excited. The little tin is a great size for carrying and is really well put together with two little mixing areas and room for either more pans or a travel brush.
The colours are high in pigment and wet up really quickly. The bleed into each other beautifully and also mix extremely well. No chalkiness and very rich colours.
The colours in the classic set are brilliant for mixing any colour you want. I'm told skin tones are difficult to achieve usually but the base layers on my painting seem to be working quite well.
I am smitten and of course, I now want another set... But I need to practice more first.

Schöne Farben, es malt sich damit wirklich schön :)
Kann ich echt empfehlen, das Geld zu investieren, und was mir so gut gefällt, es ist austauschbar!:)
Pourquoi je recommande celui-ci: parce que ce sont les couleurs basiques et qu'elles permettent à elles seules d'obtenir beaucoup de couleurs secondaires ou tertiaires. La qualité des couleurs est variable, certaines sont vraiment surprenantes. Avec ce set, on peut faire un peu tout ce qu'on veut tant que c'est un peu flashy au niveau des couleurs. C'est un set un peu sucré en quelque sorte. D'ailleurs le marketing fait autour l'indique bien. C'est pour le loisir créatif et pas pour un travail d'artiste mais c'est tout de même une belle surprise.
Pour le prix, ça vaut le coup. Si on doit choisir deux sets, je recommande de compléter celui-ci avec "tropicals" qui fournira des couleurs plus denses ou vives de complément. Pour avoir également testé la version pastel, je ne recommande pas du tout cette dernière, la plupart des couleurs s'avéreront inutiles. Il existe d'autres sets que je n'ai pas testé (encore) mais la plupart ne sont pas commercialisés chez nous.
Pour info, j'ai aussi laissé un commentaire vidéo sur les deux autres sets que j'ai essayés.
