I bought these for my daughter for her birthday. She loves them and uses them all the time. She feels the quality of paint is really nice and was worth the money.

A good set to sample lots of pre-mixed acrylic colors. A great value, especially when you catch it on sale from Amazon.

  • Caution to beginners!! It could be the paint!
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1) Style: 72 x 22ml (0.74-oz)
Beginners please read before you give up on your passion! I am a highly experienced painter working in everything from airbrush, acrylic, oil, car paint and more. I have used these paints for years but they do have some fickle characteristics that I would caution beginners about. For instance these aren't very opaque which can be extremely frustrating for a beginner and leave you layering and layering to try to get a solid none streaky look even in the opaque line of these paints. Also I don't know what it is about Liquitex but having used several of these bundle packs as well as the full size tubes the same colors continue to age poorly and rapidly -the Quinacridone Magenta turns into a stringy slime that does not spread evenly, the yellow begins to coagulate and has a lumpy cottage cheese texture mixed in a slime, and the brown does similar to the yellow but in a much dryer form. These colors continue to be problematic over and over to the point I am done buying them and have replaced them with a different brand. I do not use these paints for detail work as much as laying down big patches of color. Overall these are ok and the colors are beautiful but if you are a beginner moving from something like a craft paint, just be aware these paints are completely different and it is not your inability as a painter as much as a challenge with the material even for the experienced painter. This is true in many art mediums, often it is the quality of the material not just the quality/experience/ability of the artist. ... show more

  • Great brand, don’t recommend buying on Amazon
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1) Style: 72 x 22ml (0.74-oz)
This is my favorite brand of paint and the basic set is great for beginners and pros alike. However, some of the tubes arrived cracked rendering several colors unusable. Amazon doesn’t offer a refund unless you send the whole set back which I’m debating, with a warning sticker for whoever opens the package of leaking paints. ... show more
