And it's also making my videos longer. 🤣 thank you too.

@@user-wk1mw9nj3i thank you too. 🙏

I agree. Do you remember how much it was in China? 😊

It was around 24 dollars for a set of 24 as well as a bunch of free gifts from the seller. Im sure they are available in in-person stores, but i got mine on taobao

@@ChugMSM wow. Alot cheaper with freebies. 🥰

Oh, thank you for appreciating my work. 🙏

I agree. Love them too. Im curious about their gouache. 😊

Yes, and i noticed that it's also sold in China with same price. You're welcome Petra. 🙏

Thanks too. Yes, they're really good for the price. 😉

I'm glad to hear your great experience with these paints. 😊

Yes, it's very warm. 😉

Totally agree! These are perfect for practice as it's affordable and color payoff is good. Thanks for sharing your experience. 😉

❤😊

Thank you. 😉

Thank you V. 🥰

I agree. This set is perfect especially for those who would like to upgrade from student grades. Its good yet cheap. Thank you too. 🥰

I, too, enjoy smaller paintings because they're just more comfortable to do and faster to finish. You can see your output as a whole easier as well without standing far from the painting. These paints are really very good for practice. They're inexpensive yet good. Have fun when you get them. Excited for you. 😇

Oh hello Sandrah. Thank you. From which country are you from in South America?

Colombia

Ahw. Thank you! Most of the time, i imagine the sceneries. They're typical beach views, mountains or rural scapes. If I have a reference, i will need to mention and show it.😊

@@eviumali1404 hiii Evi. Did you get a set na?

Thank you and welcome to my channel. I would love to do more landscapes soon. Please stay tuned. 😊

@@AllanJayQuesada Can't wait! Thank you. 🥰

Oh i havent seen her video. It maybe a bad batch, or maybe the paints had been sitting for so long, so the pigments and binder had separated or sort of misbehaved. Thats unfortunate. Yeah, definitely a great set to begin with.. not for total beginners though. I think, pan paints are best for total beginners.. but for those with some experience or for those who are upgrading from school grade paints, these Maries Masters are definitely good.

Thank you. ❤😊

Thank you so much for your appreciation, my friend. 🙏 ❤

I was to remove the emerald green and phthalo green. I prefer to have Indian Red. But that was just me. It's interesting you are adding W&N pro to this as the English brand is a few steps higher when it comes to quality. But it can work together Ofcourse. 😊

@@AllanJayQuesada I have a lot of Winsor & Newton watercolor tubes that someone gave me......thought it would enhance the set by adding a few........I will take your lead and remove the greens and add the Indian Red I enjoy your channel and reviews

Oh i would love to, but at the moment, DaVinci isn't yet available here in the Philippines. Shipping costs atl3ast 70usd plus taxes.. so id probably wait till a friend or relative goes to US 😊

Hahaha. Oo delayed na nga kasi March pa nila ito naipadala.

@@AllanJayQuesada 😯

@@AllanJayQuesada okay lang kuya, atleast me bago😁

😍

Yes, I had done this in my 18 tubes years before. Honestly, some colors do not activate as easily as most typical brands. They can be activated but not just as instant. Spray them water atleast a minute before use and they're good, or just use them straight from the tube.

@@AllanJayQuesada thank you kindly. I hope you will be sent lightwish watercolour pan so you could produce a comparison video on it with Paul rubens and Marie's

Asian brands po like Holbein, Paul Rubens are some pro grades na good and affordable po. Transparency not only depends sa brand. But on the pigment selection. So depende po yun sa kulay (pigment). Kasi kahit Daniel Smith pa or Schmincke pa yan, meron parin sa selection nila ang opaque and semi opaque. This is why in my reviews, i put the black line.. some pigments are most of the time transparent like mga PB15 and PV19. Some pigments are often opaque like PW6, PB28 and PG50, PY35 and PR108. So if transparency ang consideration niyo po, you need to study the pigments and probably handpick your colors.. kasi pag sets, they're usually mixed with some opaque colors

So sorey for your experience. But i can somehow relate as in my 1st try of these paints, years ago, i also experienced binder separation. I think, since i got a new batch/stock now, the paints are fresh.
