Review on 🎨 Schmincke Horadam Aquarell Half-Pan Paint Metal Set, Set of 48 Colors (74448097): Unleash Your Artistic Brilliance! by Jessica Lewis

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Excellent color - pewter, not so much.

I'm glad I finally chose this color, it's just great. It's expensive, but I couldn't bring myself to spend $50-$70 on something if I wasn't sure. Subtracting that $50-$70 off the price made it better. The brush picks up so little paint that it can even out over time. I know a few primary colors are missing, but I can live with that. After weeks of reading blogs and watching YouTube videos, I finally hit the order button. 4 stars because of the can. There is another company that sells sets of 12 colors in a small jar that people buy just for the jar. That's a great gesture! Works great, edges are even. Difficult to put pan halves back in this jar after opening. And yes, I know how to work with small metal tabs - I have 4 small perfect shapes. I dropped the tabs and ran two 1/8-inch strips of heavy-duty double-sided tape down each lane. The sides of the can are sharp, so I have to be careful, but next, the white rounded edge that wraps around the back is very sharp at each end (next to the hinges). So you could spend a little more money on the tin and get a great product.

Pros
  • 48 colors per set
Cons
  • Off fashion
