Missing color watercolor set

Excellent watercolor product for students. I bought two sets of Prang 1/2 pan watercolor paints. One is done and the other is missing the brush and 1/2 part of the main blue. Because of this, I'm hesitant to order for my entire class. If the sets were complete, it would be five stars.

Pros
  • Always liked
Cons
  • So-so

I'm impressed with the painting

I am a watercolor painter and am always looking for good painting materials. VERY IMPRESSED by these prang sets. The quality of the pigment is actually pretty damn good. And they have staying power. I bought a few of these to use in my art classes and for my own grandchildren. One of the best prices on art supplies I've found in a while! They like it VERY much!

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • So far so good

Good paints, good case (with a lid) and a good brush!

These colors are surprisingly good for a set that feels like school. All of the colors are beautiful and vibrant, and each individual half can easily be swapped out or even turned into a different set. As some people have mentioned, the set you receive DOES NOT have a double lid which is a shame. But the item numbers match those on the Prang website, so the double lid looks like an outdated product image everywhere. However, the single lid has five mixing sections, a large one in the middle and

Pros
  • Sturdy box with easy-open lid and reusable halves saves time and money
Cons
  • Very expensive

The earlier image is misleading; like color.

When I first ordered the Prang set the picture was of a black metal box. That's why I ordered it. I can buy regular Prang watercolors in a plastic container in the city where I live for less (no shipping!). I see that they changed the picture. I kept this set because it has square removable paint containers and I was happy with it. For student color, I find Prang colors excellent. Excellent light pigment. A good kit for watercolor beginners. The brush is sufficient, with animal hair and a tip…

Pros
  • Includes white mixing bowl and brush
Cons
  • Not bad but...

Unpopular Opinion: There is a better choice at this price point

I don't really like prang colors. You can certainly make art out of them and this set is much lighter than washable prang cakes and less flat than the cheap popular round cakes on the market. However, you can get much better value for money on other kits in this price range. Think Tinge/Superior half shells in a metal can rather than a premium box and the fact that the paints have pigment information, lightfastness ratings and typical watercolor titles. help you learn. In comparison, Prang has…

Pros
  • AP certified non-toxic
Cons
  • Only available in black
