Camel Artist Water Color 5ml tubes, 24 shades

I reviewed these before buying them because of the price (I have schmincke and Holbein) I'm pleasantly surprised with them..creamy texture and behave as good quality paints should..what have you got to loose..arrived exactly on time...GREAT .....

This review is for the Kokuyo Camlin 24 set 5ml watercolor tubes. This is the third time I purchased this product. These watercolors are absolutely lovely and I am so pleased with the price point. The first time I purchased these watercolors I payed double the price. I have a lot of watercolor brands (student and professional) made in the US and abroad, and this is among my top favorites. They mix very well, do not get muddy and conforms to ASTM D 4236 and are Non-toxic. The Yellow Ochre and Raw Sienna are very close in color which was odd, and they do have a strong chemical smell when first pored from the tubes, which I can understand would turn a lot of people off. However in my opinion, these paints perform nicer dried in a palette and after several days, the smell does dissipate. The tubes in this set have a lightfast rating of A and B ( A-Absolutely Permanent, B-Permanent). I have read many reviews that have glowing remarks on their lightfastness. I personally have never did a lightfast test on this set. There is no pigment information on these watercolors. I believe that they have a total of 48 colors in their line, and offer larger 20ml sized tubes. I would be extremely interested in purchasing and trying more colors. I have not been able to find open stock anywhere. Maybe they will be offered on Amazon in the future. If you are looking for a very nice inexpensive watercolor and you are a beginner, student or professional, regardless of the smell, these are definitely worth it. They are very enjoyable to paint with.

Son preciosas y de una calidad excelente. Las conocí por vídeos de acuarelistas profesionales de India y la verdad es que me gusta mucho. Se han convertido en una de mis preferidas. La única pega es que que tienen un olor algo fuerte, aunque a mi no me molesta, y si las echas en godets para trabajar con ellas como pastillas, tardan bastante en secar (no llegan a secar del todo) y tienes que tener cuidado y tenerlas en horizontal bastante tiempo

Très bien, à part la livraison à l’extérieur chez le voisin
