Coliro M600 Artist Mica Watercolor Paint Set – Metallic Watercolor Paints (6-Color Set, 30mm)

I’ve tried nearly every other type of gold paint product out there without ever really being satisfied with the results. I finally splurged and bought the Finetec and I am finally happy. THIS is what gold should look like. Everything else is just garbage compared to how rich and creamy these are, and how stellar the final product is.

This paint is quite beautiful, of a good quality, and it can be used for subtle effects or layered to get a more solid, foil-like appearance.It flows nicely on the paper and seems to work well with my other watercolors. So far, Ive used ot to add some discreet gold color to paintings of autumn aspen trees, and also to make a deep gold background for a single aspen leaf. Both came out looking classy. I find it especially attractive on a rougher, more highly textured watercolor paper. People at my gallery like the paintings Ive made using it, and have been asking what I used. I do wish that in place of one of the similar looking gold colors, there were more of a coppery color, instead, just to add some variety to the set. Im looking forward t trying it out on dark colored paper and also mixing with other paints to get certain colors and effects. Once Ive found time to try that, I may come back and add more detail to my thoughts on its uses.

This product was used by an artist I follow on YouTube. They are AWESOME !! Goes on smooth and easy and wonderful to work with! A suggestion she gave - have a separate pallete with the sparkles from your other paints!

I purchased on the recommendation of a watercolor artist on Youtube and Im very happy with the purchase. The colors are lovely and add a beautiful shine and color to paintings.

I give these an A as they work how I expected (well) and the cost was reasonable. I have tried others that were not satifactory.

I have to start by explaining that the paints have to be activated a minute before you are planning to use them by adding a bit of water and just letting it sit. After the activating the result is so beautiful! Completely mesmerizing with the intensity and pearliness. Ive attached a picture drawn with these, but it doesnt do them any justice. I am planning to try Finetecs second set of pearly watercolors, Im sure I wont be dissapointed.
