qianshan Mini Portable Handmade Artist Watercolor Paint Travel Tin Box Set with 6 Metallic Pearlescent Glitter Solid Watercolor Half Pans Sparkle Professional Watercolor.Gold

This paint set is very tiny ( only about 2" by 2 1/2") but holds six really nice pans of metallic paint. I only use tiny accents of metallic paint every so often so this little set works great for me. The paints are nicely made and have quite a bit of sparkle. I especially like the gold one! When dry they have a pretty glow but don't look as if glitter had been sprinkled on the painting. They have a more subtle metallic look. Note that the pans are not adhered to the tin when received which is nice because that let me arrange them in the way I prefer before I stuck them down with the included glue dots.

Colors are wonderful - rich and deep. Paints aren't chalky and look more like an ink wash than watercolor paint. I use them in art journaling and plein air painting. Love the quality metal case. Small to slip in a travel bag. I have 3 of the color sets and all perform well and are beautiful colors. Wish they made more sets! My husband thinks the metal case is good quality and wants to steal it. Good value for good paints in a good portable case!

I got two of these sets- one with the palette, pink tin case, water cup, and magnetic clip, and one with the individual cups and sponges in the metal case. Generally, I'm pretty happy. These palettes are very small- about 2"x2", but it was just what I was looking for. The cases are nicely made and sturdy, and the clips are nice and strong. The magnetic clip can easily fit over several pages, but the water cup clip is tighter, and needs to be slipped on more carefully. The pans in the pink set are slightly larger than the metal set, but both are somewhere around half the size of a regular half pan. Comparing the two styles, they have their pros and cons. The pink case has the palette as one piece, so installation is as easy as adding in the included double sided clear stickers and placing the palette in. However, because the lid/mixing area isn't white, it can sometimes be tricky to see exactly what color you might be mixing. Also, because the colors are so close, it can be tricky keeping them clean/pure. The metal case has the pans loose, and also comes with double sided clear stickers to attach the little pans. In this way, you can customize the set to include as many or as few pans as you want or need. It also comes with 4 white sponges. (I still haven't decided which colors I want in this set, so I just opted for split primaries 😅. I don't really use the sponges.) You can cut up and add in a larger sponge if that's what you need or prefer. The mixing area is what I'm not crazy about. I'm happy that it's white, but it's made of an odd material that causes the paint to pool strangely. It behaves differently than plastic, ceramic, and metal palettes, and makes it less fun to use. There's also a rim around it where paint can collect, making it difficult to clean. But overall, I'm happy with both sets. Since they're so tiny, I can easily slip all this and a little brush into a small bag and paint anywhere, anytime I feel a need to paint. I've been using it with my tiny 3 ring binder for "paint scribbles" and I love it. Would definitely recommend. EDIT: I cleaned the white mixing area with a little bit of isopropyl alcohol and that seems to have taken care of the weird pooling issue. Much better!

I have a problem with loving to collect small palettes. These are fun, bright colors, price is excellent, the pallete seems durable, easy to carry around your six favorite half-pans. I enjoy them.

I was hesitant to purchase this set, but went ahead on an impulse buy moment. No regrets! PHEW! The tin is TINY though. It's about half the size of a regular Altoids tin if that helps anyone get a good mental picture. The quality is great, and looks like this will last for years to come. All of the parts in the package struck me as being decent quality. Really happy and also wish that the seller would sell just the little tins, and have lots more color/pattern options for the tins. I love this well enough that I'd gift a set to watercolor friends. =)

This is darling and as shown in photo. High pigmented colors so you don’t need much when painting. Super cute and sturdy metal case with good hinge and clasp. Perfect for travel!

Great set to give you additional colors. Good quality with vivid, shimmering colors.

Beautiful colors, but two of the pans collapsed under the pressure from a single drop of water during the first swatch test. These were BIG bubbles that left a large, gaping hole. Still for the price (I paid $4) a very good value for how often I use metallic paint in watercolor.

Beautiful colors but should they look like this ?

Passt super, ist immer in meiner Tasche. Jede Zeit ist griffbereit. Bequem, praktisch, schön

I know it is supposed to be mini but I think it should be titled as micro instead.

Bought this to take on a long trip and I love it. It is tiny but perfect and I am excited to fill up the paint pallete!! The magnet seems strong and all of it is sturdy and good quality!

This is the cutest, most adorable travel watercolour set ever! I love it. In all it's tiny-ness, it seems sturdy. Can't wait to fill it with paint.
