Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolors, 48 Colors

The set was really beautiful and nice quality for the cost of it. Really nice that you can take out individual colors out of the box as well to make it more convenient. Really glad that I got it.

Wonderful colors!!

Muy buena calidad

The color is vivid.

I only swatched it so far, but seems nice, a cross between gouache and watercolors. Im trying to improve my watercolor skills which are pretty low at this point, so Im definitely no expert. The colors seem very vibrant, good for florals. I like how if you keep the paint thick its more opaque like gouache, but add more water and more like watercolors. A bit pricy, though. The big pans are nice, but not filled to the top, which for this price they should be.

These are a unique product - between gouache and watercolor. They dry with a shine. They have potential, but I find them difficult to use. I prefer my old watercolor set.

Oh my gosh I dropped the box a couple of inches and the entire set cracked up and moved around in the box. I don’t see how I can use these in studio. So brittle!!!!

Love these paints. Transparent and I love how they move on paper...I do wish the pans were filled more...

Really enjoy getting to know Japanese watercolor.

The paints are very bold in color. I did a search of each color on my Canson XL paper and they are vibrant and easy to blend. A little goes a LONG way and these beauties are going to last forever.
