MozArt SuppliesProfessional Watercolor Paint Set - 6 Jewel Vibrant Colors – Light Weight and Portable Travel Watercolor Set – Perfect for Artists, Students, Kids and Hobbyist

I already owned the Kuretake "Starry Colors" set when I ordered this one...and honestly only ordered this Komorebi set because I caught it on sale and because it has a broader range of colors than the name brand set I already own and love. I didn't have very high expectations from what I judged to be perhaps a generic knock-off product.Actually, these paints are very very similar to the name brand product. They are full pans!! Pans are removable from the cardboard packaging if you want to put them into your own palette box. The paints themselves perform almost identically to the Kuretake paints. There is one gold in the Kuretake that is just hands down the best, most vivid and beautiful metallic watercolor gold out of the 2 dozen or so competitors I have personally tried, and it might be worth it to buy that set just for that particular paint; however, that set only contains 5 shades of gold and one white. If you are ok with just gold and white, the Kuretake paints are slightly better quality, but the differences are almost negligible. The Komorebi paints, which I am reviewing do contain a good gold, and have a much better range of metallic colors (not limited to just gold). So bottom line, if you want a superb set with several various metallic colors, then definitely buy this set. You won't be disappointed. These are much better than any store brand or any other generic watercolor paint I have tried. The paints lay down smooth, not clumpy nor chalky. They're exactly as they should be, and really amazing quality and amount of paint for this price!! These are actually better quality than some name brand metallics that cost more, but difficult to really compare sets with dozens of colors to this one that only has 6.This is a very budget friendly set, especially considering that they are full pan sized paints. They're very versatile in how you can use them: watercolor painting--obviously--but also can use them to apply truly brilliant effects in coloring book images that you can't get with metallic pencils. These can also be splattered onto mixed media, home made cards, or scrapbook layouts etc to give a unique, abstract shimmering accent.

This is a fantastic set of paints for the money. Here are my personal highlights:• They reconstitute (to a nice buttery consistency) quite well if you prefer to apply the “pure paint” to the paper or if you want to mix a larger amount of your own creation of a color and want it to stay concentrated.• They are indeed highly pigmented and do not have the curse of the “cheap paint filler haze” as you paint with them.• They interact well with salt, of course for best results, you sparingly apply the salt to the freshest water + paint areas as you go and then stop touching and/or moving that area.• They interact and mix well with other watercolors, specifically in my case, I generally use fine art, higher quality, genuine pigment, tube paints. These MozArt paints have mixed, influenced, and interacted well with all the other paints I use and have done well on and adhered to all of the many many varied media surface types I work on.• I was very surprised and delighted with the brightness and the transparency of the neon colors in particular! I would very very much love to buy them in tube form, were they available, because I can envision lots of applications I would have for them.• The metallic colors are excellent as well. They work great as a finishing shimmer on top if the painting or mixed right in with the rest of your color of choice. When whetted appropriately, they are opaque and make for a snazzy signature on the front of your painting!Bottom line:Yes, these paints are worth your time, money, and effort. When used on and with a medium or nicer quality paper, you will not be disappointed in their pigmentation, consistency, intensity, mixing possibilities, and overall level of snazziness.

I like the earth tone colors in this palette. It has a nice shimmer. I wish it was a little bit stronger, but it works well with my watercolor art.

I purchased these on the recommendation of another professional artist and am very impressed. I like the range of colors (except for the lack of a dark burnt umber) I love that the colors are rich (mostly) and that you also get a few neon and metallics in the set. I am not sure of the light fast ratings. And they don't seem to have that haze that most cheaper water colors can have from the fillers (I have completed two small paintings to test them). I like that I can lift them or build them accordingly while painting. Overall very nice and I would highly recommend to beginners since they are a lower price point.

This water color is so pigmented! Love the depth and texture.

I got this due to the reviews, size, colors, and value. Like many there was a little issue with pans not being filled full. Mine from Amazon came with two pans overfilled, most are nearly full and one was less than 1/2 full....which was very odd. The pans are large and you will have plenty of paint and room to move your brush around. On top of that, lots of pigment. You need to do the swatches as the colors will be different on paper. Glad they provide the chart inside the box.I wanted to do the swatches and tried it out with a few practices before doing this review as I am brand new to watercolor. It is fun and easy to mix. Note I used cheap paper (and very cheap brush) for practice so if you use nice paper,it will be much better.Overall as you can see, it has a nice smooth color/finish. Even wash even for someone who does not know how to use this medium yet. A little goes a long way. It's easy to reactivate the pain that I used the time before. It's easy as I only use two of the same colors for practice. Nothing goes to waste and for sure these pans will last for a very long time.

Those colors ate vibrant and easy to apply. Very happy with the results.

Todos los colores están padrisimos, tienen buen tamaño, los recibí un día antes estoy feliz con mi compra ♥️

A very nice set of metallic watercolours at a good price. I've been making jewellery and used these to paint on air dry clay - work brilliantly and look fantastic once coated with UV resin to protect them.

Excelente textura y acabado.

Ces aquarelles sont superbes, à tout petit prix.
