BASICS Acrylic Paint Tube 36-Piece Set

Love these acrylic paints. This is what my teachers all recommended in college art classes. They work geat for paper, canvas, mixed media, and other art projects. These are a good value (less expensive than the Liquitex website, Walmart, HobbyLobby, and Target) sell these for. They are great for mixing your own colors and for doing large projects. A small amount of these go a long way and you can make a lot of projects with these.

I bought this as a beginner learning acrylic painting. The quality of paint is good and there is enough variety of color to do all kinds of projects. The tubes are not very big but sufficient to get started. I have bought larger tubes of the Basics selection for colors that I use often. This got me familiar with the colors though and was exactly what I needed. I bought it after many recommendations to use Liquitex and that the Basics selection was a much better quality than most other beginner sets. It's well priced and I'm happy with it.

I am only an amateur artist that likes to paint and draw for the fun of it, but in my opinion this is a very nice paint set.This is the second time I have purchased these paints from Amazon. I bought the first set for myself and ended up giving them to my mother to replace an inferior paint set that she bought from Hobby Lobby. There is a great selection of colors and they are a really nice consistency that will cover your canvas in one coat. Not watered out at all. Each tube is a generous size. I can do several paintings and still have paint left over even in the most often used colors.

I'm a mixed media artist and have ALL sorts of paints but I wanted to get a complete set as a "go to" for the studio as well as a starter set for my six year old daughter, who is REALLY into art. This set totally fit the bill- the quality is good enough that I can use it in my work without worrying about durability, the investment was low so I can use as much as I need and share with my daughter without worrying about *literally* pouring it on the canvas and in our art journals. The only thing I don't like about these paints is the color palette. It's very traditional, which is great for those looking to do traditional color mixing, but the colors are dark and there are TONS of browns and tans and rich reds. My work tends to be more vibrant and vivid, so these colors have to be REALLY mixed to pull the colors I need from the paints. And my daughter isn't drawn to them- she'd rather use the cheapy crummy craft paints in the squeeze bottles in the "fun" colors. But overall, good purchase. I just wish they had a "brights" set. BTW, this is a GREAT kit to buy along with a Gelli Plate- they work fabulous on the Gelli plate (the paints don't dry too fast, smooth out beautifully over the surface) and you can use them generously without worrying about the investment.

I purchased this set for my adult daughter. This is a complete set of accurate colors for most acrylic paintings, and they can be applied to almost every surface, including permanent adhering to cloth. These are their "Basics" set, so there are a lot of hues (Hue will be in the color name on the tube), rather then single pigment paints. It is an excellent set for the beginning painter. Besides brushes, they'll need a small bottle of Matt and Gloss Mediums. Avoid thinning with water, since that weakens the paint. Use Medium. Keep in mind that many of the paints are "Hues" of a named color. Hues are made up of more than one color pigment to mimic the more expensive pure pigments. Consequently, when creating a color by mixing "hues," the color doesn't always turn out the way expected. Also, note that acrylic paints dry quickly, so if you are experienced with oil paints where you load you pallet with lots of colors, they'll dry very quickly. (To continue work on painting still wet, use a hair dryer, or simply place the painting in the sun.) Use only the paint(s) needed for painting during your session. That's another reason for so many colors in the set, since repeating a color mixed on your painting, it's better to use, if possible, a single paint from the tubes. Also, each tube is marked to indicate whether it is opaque, transparent, or translucent. Rule One until you are experience painting with acrylics, avoid mixing opaque with the transparent or translucent paint. The opaque will usually overtake the transparent properties: mix opaques together, transparent paint and sometimes, translucent together. Experiment with a small bit when trying to achieve a color not included in the set. And one final note for oil painters not experienced with acrylic, acrylic paints are polymers, and once they quickly dry on top of acrylic paint, they form a molecular bond, which is forever. No way to remove the color on top. White is your friend in this case. Paint over with white, then apply whatever color you wish. Unlike oil paint, it is permanent.

I used to paint often and stopped for many years - when I decided to start painting again, I realized all of my paints were dried up and I just didn't have colors. I needed a quick little set with a variety of colors and this set did the trick - It has plenty of choices for color. I have painted 2 canvases with it and they worked great. The set is inexpensive and it was a great way to get my paint collection started up again - delivery was quicker than expected

I was looking for a set up paints with lots of colors and this is great. I am in the process of painting my kitchen trash can. I know it sounds strange, but I cannot find a trash can that I like for my kitchen so I thought I would just update the old plastic one that I already have. These paints are easy to clean up and so far, I have been able to mix and match colors that I really like. The paint seems to hold up well on the trash can so far. Good choice for acrylic colors.

Io li adoro! Ho aspettato a fare la recensione proprio per provarli bene! Colori ottimi, brillanti, abbastanza coprenti! Qualità media/ alta! Non emanano odori sgradevoli! Prezzo buonissimo!

Farb- und Lichtecht. Sind in dauerhafter Verwendung. Ich empfehle die immer weiter

These are decent colours with a good variety of shades which is handy to mix them together to make lots of other shades. This taster set contains small sized tubes about 3" long so really handy for mix and matching. I've used these to touch up scratches on walls, skirting boards, picture frames, taxidermy and shoes. They are water soluble and go a long way. You need to put a decorator's varnish over them for a longer lasting finish. You can also get these colours in the more expensive Liquitex professional quality and in larger sizes.

Pour le prix c’est très bien !
