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

This little watercolor set is awesome. The colors are vibrant as you can see in the color chart that I filled in from the kit. As of yet I haven’t completed the color wheel, but it will be such a big help! Having the color chart and a color wheel is an added bonus. Then I had the surprise of an additional mixing pan under the paints! I think there is space to add two more half pans of colors that I like. I know that magenta will be my first addition. I am going on a big adventure in a few months and this is definitely going with me!

Great watercolors for the price. Vibrant and easy to work with for someone who is a beginner like me. I recommend it for newbies.

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.

Nice set with vivid colors. Strange to use first, but stunning results! Great price. No brush inside.

Beautiful colors and packaging! Opening each color from the wraps was LITERALLy like opening candy papers. Have always been using this brand. Small blocks go a long way especially if you're working on small workbooks.

Great little set. Paints are great. The fold out mixing trays are great. The magnetic strip that the paints go in it great for clean up. Just lift out the strip. The color cards are handy. The paints are really nice and I can get a dark color easily

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.

Love these sets! I went back and purchased the larger set. I would love to have tubes of color. Great line! Edit: I am sad to say I had to come back and edit this reveiw. I love the colors I see as I use this and the larger set. Having used them for awhile now I discovered the paint isn’t very lightfast. They wet well and would work well for practice and sketching. I’m keeping them for that. The sets are packaged nicely. I want paints that would hold up if I sold my paintings, and these may not. I will have fun using them for practice and sketching.
