SCHPIRERR FARBEN – Watercolor Paint Set with Rich Pigment, Watercolor Set for Adults and Children, Portable Painter Palette in a Tin Box with a Metal Ring, 12 Vivid Colors

Nice set and these colors ARE vibrant and remain that way when dry! Easy to wet for use and I like the compact container . My only comment is the "color wheel" included with the swatch page. These particular colors do not line up for a color wheel so I guess I am supposed to learn to mix my own to fit the wheel. Good practice for me. Swatch part is nicely laid out and handy.

This watercolor set is adorable and great for any artist in your family.Super easy to travel with. Compact, easy clean up. Super fun to use! Highly recommend.

I am shocked this beautiful set of 12 perfect colors for singular use or mixing is no longer available. I am sick about this. These paints are better than their new larger set. I believe these 12 half pans were selected by professional artists but don’t quote me on this. I was able to create any color including secondary and tertiary colors by the specific colors they choose for this set. Colors are clear and intense and are easily made sheer by using more water. They are easy to activate, easy to use and last forever. Great, satisfying texture too. I don’t think they were listed as lightfast but I have paintings from 5 years ago using this set that have held up beautifully but we’re not exposed to light. I know this is not a measure to qualify watercolors as “lightfast” but I have many practice paintings, painting drills and just having fun creating colors with other brands of paint that faded drastically and changed the colors even though they never saw the light of day. These and 1 other 12 pc 1/2 pan set has been discontinued have been my favorite paints to carry with me or just feeling inspired to paint.SCHPIRERR FARBEN, PLEASE make this excellent 12 piece set available again. I am not a fan of your new larger watercolor set. This 12 piece set made mixing colors fun with beautiful results.

I've been using these watercolors for the past 6 months, and have enjoyed them a great deal. The paints move on the paper nicely, and most of the colors have translucency that allows for effective layering. I recently added a set of another better-known, highly rated brand. I still find myself going to this travel set, though, and the paints I'm now familiar with. The color selection is nice, but there are a few things that would have made it better fit my style. There is a warm and a cool red hue, but not a pink. There is also a warm and a cool green, but neither is very natural. There is no gray or white. Having warm and cool hues of the primary colors, though, allows for mixing of most any color I want. The metal case is very nice quality, but the half pans do slide around, as others have noted. Not a big deal. I'm not a trained artist, but these paints are certainly good enough to produce results that are pleasing.

This paint is good quality, not quite pro. but good. The paint box is nice and feels good in your hand,nice size and sturdy too. The colors mix well. I needed to add a couple drops of water to the pan to keep the block of paint in place. I also put a bit of tickey - tack under each pan to make sure it stayed in the paint-box. Not a big deal. I almost always need to do this anyway. There is room enough in the case to add another row of pans (sideways) and you could swap out the pans that came in the box with others you like more. You can't buy single colors to replace empty pans, so I intend to refill the pans as they empty from tubes or buy a different brand of half pan. Eventually I will have a personalized palette in a good quality paint box and I will probably buy another one of these. Good paint, good price so, good review!

These watercolors came very nicely packaged and the pigments are very nice. It's very compact and perfect for times when you can't haul around all your regular tubes of watercolors. They mix well, come with a mini artist's palette, and work great for travel or painting outdoors.

I will be honest, I did not buy this set for the paints. I bought this set solely for the case, which has a ring on the bottom to hold it easily in your hand while painting, as well as two fold out sections to mix paint in.That said, I figured I'd give the paints a chance, and they have more than surpassed my expectations, especially for such a low price-these paints are smooth and gorgeous and rich, and the colors you are given are a good variety; each useful in their own way. I wasn't sold on the Ultramarine Blue at first, but I used it to paint the reflection of the cloud in the pond, and I found it incredibly useful for that.Please ignore the green in the orange section of my color wheel-I know how colors work, I swear I do, I'm just a very easily distracted man.Overal, this is an excellent watercolor kit, a beautiful case, and very worthwhile paints. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone beginner-to-intermediate-to-just-needing-a-nice-travel-set.

Such a cute set and such fantastic quality paints. Far beyond expectations for what it is. Super pigmented and they mix easily. I love the little fold out palette tray and the pots stay in place really well once you set them up. the color wheel card is great for reference too. I might just take it everywhere 😁Thanks
