Successful set for 2 weeks trip to Ireland
Overall, these are good for travel but I would not use them for every day urban sketching, even though I LOVE the colors and the pigment. Everything about these sets is great except that the format is a bit unwieldy to juggle while you are sketching en plein air. Switching pages back and forth is tricky while holding a skechbook and brushes. I wish the colors were only on one side of the “page” so that I could disassemble the book into individual sheets and lay them out on my board. That said, the colors are so vibrant and easy to use that I will keep looking at the product to see if the design progresses. I realize my needs may be different than those of others, so take my comments with a grain of salt!
Best Paints
I love the paint booklets! They are compact and yet they have so much colour and pigment. I also have the little cork trays and by far my fav paints!
Inconsistent pigment loading
I love the vibrancy . Love the packaging . What I don’t like is that the sheets have inconsistent , un guaranteed amounts loaded on to the sheets . I bought all the sheet snd pan sets you have . I raised concerns when m ketelluc sheets , the gold specifically , was found to be poorly loaded. I asked Amazon to replace , as well as communicating with the company via Instagram. Was advised pens all have 8g amounts per pigment , but the sheets are loaded by eye . If it looks loaded, it is . Reputable , brands allocate specific ml amounts . This should be the case for the sheets also . Your items are not cheap . Also, pan and sheet sets should match, logically . The inconsistency undermines you company
Wonderfull colors
La intensidad del pigmento es fabulosa ¡felicidades! La idea de ponerlo en hojas facilita llevarlos de viaje ¡muy buena idea! Se hace difícil ir de una hoja a la otra (de un color al otro) con la rapidez que la acuarela requiere... Tal vez se podría acceder a las hojas con pintura si no estuvieran en un cuadernito, sino sueltas... pero no es tan difícil cortarlas y ponerlas a la vista para poder usarlas. Creo que éso hizo Diane con alguna de ellas Dices: "We're a small family owned business and we choose not to send on marketing and expensive user studies. Instead we put our dollars into making the best products for you! " ¡los felicito por esta opción! Son acuarelas accesibles en precio y de muy alta calidad de pigmento
