Schmincke - HORADAM® AQUARELL - finest artists watercolor paints, 521 Hookers green, 14 521 044, 1/2 pan

Great stuff! So easy to activate and the colors are so true - LOVELY!

In excellent condition

Talk about a beautiful color - I want to make my everything this color because its so pretty. I just love using it! Easily activated and absolutely gorgeous color!

Schmincke is an excellent brand! I have 3 of their watercolor tins and many of their tube paints. An instructor required that we get neutral tint so I went with what I knew to be trustworthy. Schminckes neutral tint is NOT neutral. Its VERY red. If you need real neutral tint get Holbeins.

Arrived and received what I expected

Everything they make in the watercolor half-pans has exceeded my expectations and this didnt disappoint! Wow! Its really pretty!

I was surprised at how nice the silver color is...great purchase.

Very happy with this addition to my watercolor collection.

compact, convenient, and a must have for traveling artists. I have not used liquid oxgall before but after this, I see little reason to try. I just do a few swipes with a slightly damp brush and mix it in with whatever color I am using and I am pretty much guaranteed to have a perfectly smooth wash of paint. It works well with granulating pigments, I have found, the pigments in Daniel Smiths moonglow has a tendency to separate as it dries if its too wet. With the oxgall the pigments stayed combined and dried evenly. I feel I should also point out that the pans from Schmincke is slightly shorter than the standard half pans I have. However, they do not taper at the bottom. The difference is not huge or even a problem, but it is noticeable if you have a mix of pans in your palette.

Magnificent quality, Schmincke is in a class of its own.
