I think you are supposed to mix them with more water so they can granulate. That is why they have an open pan to mix with water. You will see the true color if you put more water.

I painted one layer and left them over night. The next morning when they were dry, I got a beautiful mix of colours. They're so much fun to play with!

They're all very pretty, but the middle color, the greenish orange color is my fav!

These are my favorite of 2024😊

I love Kuretake paints! I have their 48 set, and the beloved art nouveau set (favorite!!). I've wanted to try granulating colors, the Schmincke super granulating in particular (I love the greens!), but haven't pulled the trigger. Definitely want to try these! I love your personality, and feel the same joy when trying new paints! Thanks from a 30 yr old in TX :)

I wasn't interested at first, but they are delicate and interesting. Because they are granulating, I think you would get more of a value range using more water with the empty pan they provided. Granulating paints, granulate better with lots of water, and sometimes even work better on cellulose paper. They look beautiful when you layered them.

Oh wow they look so much different than what I imagined! Such beautiful color separation 🥰 thank you reviewing them they look such a fun addition to their basic sets

These look stunning, watched and enjoyed till the end ☺☺

I enjoy Kurosaki and have acquired the complete set of Kuratake. I started a no 2024 and may break it with this set. My favorite style of painting is abstract and I also love doodling. I am excited to see what can be created with these paints. Have you tried abstract or doodling with these paints?

They are just beautiful I use the other Kuretake water colour paint in my colouring in books for details backgrounds ect.. I’ve just started learning to watercolour I brought some other artist’s grade watercolour granulating smikchie can’t spell it off hand off eBay at a really great buy secondhand and a Princeton paint brush go practice I’m going to get these paints they look amazing ❤❤❤😊😊😊xxxx

From screen it looks like our Mists by NP 😅

I swatched them and thought they all dried much the same except for the orange which would better have been called green.

2 birds one stone? How much is Meeden paying you to sneakily throw in the complement about their paper to hit people at the subconscious level?

I really really wish four of them weren't purple. I know one is called red and one blue but they look purple to me. And the orange looks green. They're beautiful but why not make other colors? Seems a little repetitive. Maybe it looks different over cam 😂
