Van GoghWatercolor Paint, 10ml Tube, Sepia 416

I buy watercolor paints in tubes (the Van Gogh brand was recommended as a good student-grade paint that performs well by an artist I follow on YouTube, Paul Clark, I think.) and I saw this palette months before I bought it. I put it on a list and it sat there for a while before I could buy watercolor supplies, but I am so glad I bought this palette. It's plastic, so there's no chance of rust. The hinge holds a paintbrush for travel or easy storage, the half pans hold a good amount of paint, it stays securely closed and isn't hard to open, it's easy to wet my paints, you can put tubed paint (more cost-effective) or your own mixes/blends in the wells and let the paint dry there to be reactivated when you wet the top... the little sponge is good quality too, like I was expecting something flimsy but no, that's a dense little sponge. I made a little swatch card, covered it in plastic (like from a cut-up sheet protector) and taped it to the inside of the lid. It's perfect. I love this palette. It was worth the wait.

Great size for a cute travel palette. It comes empty so you can place whatever colors floats your boat. Be warned, these will only fit "Van Gogh" proprietary pans, which, according to Royal Talens, they will not sell empty. I don't see any reason you couldn't just squeeze some paints into the wells. If you try to jam a standard half pan into the palette slots, they only fit about half way in. Van Gogh student watercolor half pans fit fine.

Even after emptying the tube and mixing it manually, will not dry down in pan. I don’t know if this is a bad batch or if it was stored improperly but given I tried to resuscitate it I can’t return it now. Seller was Art Supply Warehouse fulfilled by Amazon.

Would’ve been better if it came with the half pans. I bought some but they don’t fit, so have to do some research to find pans that will fit the case before I can use it.

Good price and listed as exceptionally lightfast in a color group which frequently is not.

I loved it!! perfect to put my watercolors in a tube to take anywhere .. very practical. I just had to put some watercolor in the tube and let it dry for several days and that's it.Take into account that this is only the empty watercolors case ... and because of the shape it has, it only serves to place the watercolors that comes in a tube

Great color you can only find in this brand. I’m a full time professional. This green is very intense. You don’t use it alone. You use in conjunction with other greens. Use with sap green or other such green to brighten the color. Never alone. I recommend

First when I opened the package my thought was : it's so small I didn't expect, as there were no any size mentioned. But Indeed it's very cute and portable , has a folded brush number 6 and a removable palette. Recommend this product.

Très bonne qualité, la couleur est très pigmentée, excellente qualité. Dommage qu’il soit en si petite quantité pour le prix.

Nice paint and cheap

This is one of the Van Gough watercolour half pans I've reacently ordered. They have good, strong pigments and last well. They also come in some colours not available in an inexpensive box of half pans. Very happy with this.

Superb quality watercolour paint from Va Gogh at a reasonable price for a half pan.

Watercolour lovely to work with I'm new to art it's great to use
