Liquid Watercolour Mixing Set 10 x 30 ml (11259902)

These paints are super juicy and flow like you would not believe. The colors are brilliant, to the point that they need to be knocked back a little occasionally with some neutral tint. Im still new to the whole watercolor thing, only been doing it a month and a half, but I immediately wanted to try them. The first image, the flowers, shows what Im talking about with the flow... the slightest touch of two colors, and they flow into each other out of control. So its going to take some practice to get these to blend on the paper, although they glaze beautifully. The second image, I just threw together a quick illustration of jelly row houses to sample the colors, especially how to mix darker and lighter. All in all, these things are great, and would get 5 stars if they were as light fast as my other liquid watercolors (Hydrus set).

It came right on time, and I really like the bright vivid colors. I will definitely be diluting them or toning them down somehow. You have to work fast. Once they get into the paper there is no getting them back up. They are very staining but again, vivid beautiful colors. Ill probably use them along with my highly granulating traditional watercolors. I really like the color separating layered look you get by combining the granulating colors with staining colors. But they will probably last me forever considering how strong the color is. The only complaint I have is the about the mess of the sepia color I had to clean off the bottles and the inside of the case. The top wasnt twisted on all the way and a little leaked out. A little goes a LONG way. I didnt lose much from the bottle and the cute little cases that they come in had no cracks or issues closing. I really like that they come in those cases and it definitely makes putting 10 bottles away much easier. I was considering buying another, much more expensive set of liquid watercolors but I dont really see the point. With the exception of the true red I feel like I have everything I need or everything I need to mix the color myself
