> 24 hourEvery product I have purchased from Paul Rubens brand is a winner. Very positive: 1. The 24 watercolor pans are quality colors, intense & smooth. Fantastic! 2. My only regret is that I did not purchase the 48 colors. Will do that in future. 3. So appreciative of the solid metal case: this will last a lifetime & will endure the usual rough & tumble on the go handling. Urgent suggestion for the manufacturer: 1. Please print your information in English for the Amazon global market. So few of us can read the beautiful but complicated Chinese characters. For the consumer: 1. It is possible, but very tedious & time consuming, to label each paint pan. The English name of the paint is on the colorful wrapper around each paint pan-- which has to be removed to uncover the paint. You can carefully label each pan one by one & kept each wrapper. 2. Lightfastness & pigment numbers needed on all 24 colors--in English. 3. I patiently labeled all 24 pans because this product is worth the effort. With sincere thanks for the high quality of these watercolor paints at a very reasonable price. ATTENTION MANUFACTURER--Marketing suggestion for increase in sales: Love the colors in this 24 color set. Since there are 48 colors, I only need the remaining 24 colors. It is wasteful to purchase the 48 color set since the initial 24 are repeated. SUGGESTION: Divide the 48 set into box #1 & Box #2. INCREASE your sales: I am sure many people will buy box #2 once they try box #1. Thank you for considering the needs of your loyal customers.

> 24 hourPaul Rubens watercolors performed well for an inexpensive brand of artists watercolors. The paints wet well and are easy to apply using traditional watercolor techniques. They layer well and colors are brilliant. These are great paints for the beginning artist as well as the experienced watercolorist wishing to add to their collection. My only complaint is that the my payns grey was not sent in my set and it looks like I recieved a second burnt brown in a payns grey wrapper. It has been very difficult to contact the company to get a payns grey. But other than that the watercolors are great.

> 24 hourI love this portable/compact palette. Easy to clean, colors are rich and you have additional space to add more color in the middle of the palette. The pigments are really good and the colors blend together easily. The price deal in Amazon was amazing, recommended for students, beginners and for people that have art as a hobby.

> 24 hourWhat a great addition these glittery watercolors are to my modest watercolor collection. I swatched them and they moved nicely. Some of the colors are more translucent then others. I think they will be fun to use on multi media projects and when I do arts and crafts with my 9yr old niece. All 24 colors are individually beautiful and so is the packaging. Everything from the pink box to the pink cloth and pink pallet are of good quality. A well thought out collection.

> 24 hourThese have a lot of pigment and the shimmer is really good. Great on white or black paper. The unusual colors are exquisite! Really good value for the cost.

> 24 hourLovely set of pretty shimmery colors… creamy, vibrant. Though I would not call these glittery. Very subtle shimmer unless you tilt the paper or have direct light on it. After using them for a bit, I have to say some of the colors are easier to use than others. The gold for instance is almost impossible to get an even light wash with… the glitter sticks in some areas and not others. This may be because I kept messing with it… I was trying to fill in a large crescent moon but the paint just doesn’t behave the way you’d expect and I found myself repeatedly trying to go over bald areas or streaky areas — and driving myself insane because it didn’t work lol. It didn’t look nice until I just did a really thick and totally opaque coverage, which was still a bit streaky, and that wasn’t the look I was wanting (see pics — only the gold color is displayed). And it took a crap ton of water and paint to do… the other colors dry pretty quickly also. Minus a star. Had to take another star off for the shape of the pans… these are not standard half size pans. They are a bit wider and rounder, which is nice because you get a little more paint but it means they don’t fit into tight spaces meant for regular half pans. Not a huge deal but annoying.

> 24 hour(reviewing both the metallic and regular paints in one review) So, Im SUPER not a good painter (absolute beginner so excuse my trash example photos) but I really like these paints. The pigment is wonderful, I think they blend well, and I find a little goes a long way. My skills however, need much improvement. In the regular paints, the brown tones are weaker in pigmentation for sure, but I still like them. I dont find any of the shades chalky and they mix well. In a beginners opinion of course. The metallics I dont use much, mostly just for adding some sort of highlight or fun effect onto another painting. Theyre very pretty paints.

> 24 hourWonderful for beginners. Only thing I wish there was a sap green. There is an emerald green and yellow, so one can mix other greens, but sap green is a very commonly used color, so it would have been helpful.

> 24 hourThese watercolors are amazing for any level artist. Most of the colors are super vibrant and saturated. I found two of the browns a little weak but usually is a hit or miss with any other watercolor brand. I dare to compare these to the Mijello Mission Gold and the amount of colors is perfect.
