Good deal but alternative colors

I was very pleased with these fine art quality oils. I love Grumbacher colors and mediums. I was able to buy them at a reduced price. However, instead of red and yellow cadmium, I received a red Grumbacher kit and yellow bismuth. I still steal so I'll keep it.

Pros
  • Lots to choose from
Cons
  • Not bad but...

Fiction! It was a present for an artist friend.

When I first ordered these headphones, they were damaged. Some cards have been opened and the case has expired. I contacted the seller and he sent me a second box for free. Fiction! It was a Christmas present from an artist friend and she thought it was fantastic - Grumbacher is a great brand of course. Great colors and great service. I couldn't ask for more.

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Everything OK

Cute set --- for painting, painting and art supplies

This set had small amounts of oil paints that I don't have in my paint palette so I was glad to get them. Grumbacher is a highly respected oil paint manufacturer with a long history; The colors are buttery smooth and smooth, safely loaded with pigment and easy to work with. Diluted with medium they have a great creamy look and feel, hold up well and retain their individual character when used in glazing and texturing techniques. I recommend Grumbacher with enthusiasm; You will not be…

Five stars! Great starter kit!

I think this is a good starter kit for oil painting and I got it to complement my Holbein Duo Aqua. It's a bit thinner in consistency than my Holbein, but I still enjoy using it. I haven't played with this oil color much but so far I like it and my favorite way to use it is M. Graham Walnut Alkyd Medium, a great non-toxic alternative to turpentine. They don't dissolve in water like my Holbein, but I happened to find that my brushes are very easy to clean with coconut oil!

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Confusing

We bought this for our artist daughter with intentions of giving as a Christmas present. We're sure she'll be delighted with the Grumbacher paint, but the paints were packaged in soft packaging that was susceptible to rough handling. The box was dented, a hose was leaking and we are reluctant to give our daughter a gift that looks used. I'm sure the paint is still good and will serve well, but going forward we would recommend rigid shipping packaging.

Pros
  • Really professional paint, most of our paints are individually pigmented and have a lightfastness rating of 1 - excellent; Made in the USA
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something

I think this is a great deal for the price

I think this is a great deal for the price, a quality paint for hobbyists and good for professionals too. It's very easy to mix and you can get a lot of versatility from the 10 tubes that come with it. I've been painting with it for a few weeks now and get a wide range of colors and shades. The price is also a lot cheaper than what I would see at my local art supply store. I would recommend getting the larger white tube with this order as it obviously runs out the quickest.

Pros
  • Archival durability
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Grumbacher's pre-tested oil paints are excellent quality paints and this set is perfect for painting on the go. The kit includes everything you need to get started with plein air projects or paint alla prima in the studio or anywhere outside of your more permanent studio space. The tubes fit perfectly on my portable easel and painting with the Grumbacher gives you the quality results you want. I am very happy with it and would have no hesitation in recommending this product.

Pros
  • Pre-tested Professional offers artists a modern palette with excellent toning power
Cons
  • Some little things
