SAKURA Koi Pocket Field Sketch Kit - Watercolor Sets for Painting On the Go - 30 Colors - 1 Water Brush - 1 Sponge - 1 Mixing Palette

I gave this as a gift, and my friend loved them!!!

The 30 color set has nice colors. For the price they are good. I dont really care for the slippery plastic box. However the paints are held nice into place.

Pros: - Convenient - Colors pop - travel size - 30 colors are great - beautiful colors Cons: - Very little color -> especially white & black - Some trays not fully filled, even lesser color - Color dont blend so well so be careful

Really nice paints for someone who hasnt had a good set before ...

Its nice and professional feeling but good price to start off with when learning to paint as a intermediate beginner. Start with this before you start getting into the really Pricey Professional Paints.

I love the water brush that lets me travel with this complete watercolor kit.

Got the big 48 pack now love the warehouse deals came fast in great shape was used but like new the paint never been touched and I Love these paint work really nice great deals very happy

A perfect gift for my friend who loves to draw/paint.

This set is PHENOMENAL! I ran into an artist at a craft fair who was using it and really liked the design, included tools, and apparent convenience. Ive used many different mediums, acrylic, chalks, oil pastels, pencils, pens, and even watercolor in the past, but not like this! (I can paint with it in the bed!!) The compact design is wonderful and I imagine the paints will last me quite some time. I never knew water color was exactly what I needed to achieve the results Ive been searching for. The pictures attached are my first few projects with this pallet and I intend to keep the momentum going! My only concern, is the tip of the brush in the included set dislodged and can be moved about, making the tip longer or shorter depending on how its positioned. When this happened, a few bristles also came free. I had purchased a set of varied brushes from another merchant, but even with the mentioned defect, all the work produced was done primarily with this sets included tool. I would recommend checking out a few youtube tutorials and technique videos for a quick and easy how-to of watercolor. I watched a very helpful, basic technique video by Mr Otter, and then discovered more artists of interest thereafter. Happy painting, Friend!

I can’t yet comment on the quality of the paints as I just got mine yesterday, but initially I’m giving this only 2 stars because the lid doesn’t even stay closed. While it is a reasonable price point, I don’t understand why they couldn’t have made a little lip on the lid to keep the lid shut.
