Weber Bob Ross Master Paint Set R6510

At first i was unsure about spending so much on an art set but i worry no more. You get everything (except the canvas - The Works website recommended for them) you need to create some fantastic painting no matter your skill level. The bob ross cd is fantastic and i have gone in search of his shows and wow!!!! So all the paints and brushes you need for loads of paintings. Only niggle is you quickly run out of white(well i did). Really recommend this and hope you have as much fun as i have.

I bought the master set and it comes with enough colours and tools to create a good painting without having to buy more to get started. You will need to buy some odourless paint thinner to clean up during painting & afterwards so don't forget that. You will also need things like a canvas and Gesso to prepare the canvas but these can be bought from local art suppliers to suit your budget (estimate about £10 - £15). The instructional DVD contains 2 videos, first a basic explanation of the items in the kit and how to use them, the second is one of the Bob Ross painting programmes to show the technique in action. There is also a small handbook giving guidance on how to produce your first painting. The set might appear a little expensive but in my judgment is reasoanble value for money. The brushes and tools you can use for a lifetime and the paints are sufficient for 4 or more paintings on a decent size canvas.

Interestingly the item displayed on the site is not the actual one you receive. The website shows and states "red box" master kit, and the received item is the other version in the "white box" master kit (I actually feel this is a better presented item and one that I originally searched for but was unavailable on Amazon site, though available in loads of other art shops). Also, when completing purchase, the small thumbnail beside the order changes to show the "white box" set.The kit itself arrived well packaged and prompt. The set is great quality, though the paint tubes differ slightly to the ones in the original photo.The dvd/bluray plays on standard xbox/player (see some reviews questioning this).All said, I am more than happy with the item and feel, although it is pricey, if items were purchased separately, would cost much more/be of lesser quality.Advice is to do research on Internet as to different sets and the variances to contents and packaging then possibly contact supplier to confirm which set you are getting.

Perfect gift for a Bob Ross lover! A bit expensive but great nonetheless!

The same day I bought a bargain pack of canvases from Lidl. Combined with this, the Bob Ross set seems to be everything the boss needs to get started. Of course the paint won't last her long but it should be enough for her to decide if she wants to buy the large quantities of paints fneeded to make this a serious hobby.

What a difference good paint makes! I love this set. Especially after watching him on BBC4 week nights! This set has helped me paint lots of happy little accidents - that look amazing! I’ve never taken art classes but can’t believe what I’ve created so far.The paints are good sizes and you really don’t need a lot. The colour quality is rich and vibrant. Brushes and knife a pleasure to work with.

At first I thought I was missing the fan brush, but it was under the box insert. It's good value for money, but it's BADLY presented. The DVD is rubbish video quality. They're using some old late 80's (or early 90s) footage of Bob that's not been restored or anything. It's like a really bad VHS rip quality. With all those teachers all over the world they should make a decent DVD showing the tools and techniques.

Fantastic set, if a little expensive.
