  • Great paints!
Style: Primary 6 x 22ml (0.74oz) Pattern Name: Paint Set
I've been using cheap paint brands for years. I decided to try quality paints, so I ordered this set. I can't believe the difference! Compared to cheaper acrylics these have much truer and more vibrant colors. You can use them as a semi transparent layer or a more opaque look.

  • Amazing colors!
Style: 48 x 22ml (0.74-oz) Pattern Name: Paint Set
Loved the size of each tube as I don’t paint too often so the risk of them drying out is low. They have an awesome color assortment and a little goes a long way depending on the surface and color chosen. I still have yet to try them all as there are almost 50 colors, but the only ones I have found so far that seem to lack the opaque quality are the fluorescents. Awesome beginner’s acrylic pack! ... show more

  • Excellent paint
Style: 48 x 22ml (0.74-oz) Pattern Name: Paint Set
This paint is above beginner level! I do not know why you call it beginner's paint. it is more expensive and worth it to the experienced artist. Beginners, there are more economical choices to start with until you decide you like the craft!

Nice quality paints, but they sent me the wrong colors. Kept it anyway as it is worth the cost.

  • Great paint
Style: 4 x 75ml (2.4-oz), 1 x 118ml (4-oz) Pattern Name: Paint Set
Way back before I actually painted on canvas I would use full cart and the cheapest acrylic paint available. But if you’re looking to do some serious painting, I would definitely suggest Liquitex. It’s super beginner friendly but I’ve seen plenty of professionals use it as well. I like that it’s readily available at a lot of places. The only thing I don’t like about this paint is that I feel like I’m not able to extract every last bit of it from the tube. ... show more
