Review on 🎨 The Best Crafts 36 Colors Watercolor Paint Set: Portable Travel Pan Set with Paint Brush - High-Quality Watercolor Cake for Students & Kids by Kristen Simpson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Grainy, sediment-like application

This set has great reviews but as a newbie to watercolor I found it lacking. I tried pouring the brownies to loosen the pigment, I also tried submerging the entire pan in the baking water. I've found the pigment rises out of the cake, sticks to the brush like white on rice, and settles to the bottom of the pan like sediment. Using these colors straight off the cake will give you some watercolor effects, but not a true blend or wash. The pigment is granular and separates from water. I would not buy this set again, even at this price, very disappointing.

Pros
  • Painting
Cons
