Kuretake Gansai Tambi GRANULATING COLORS 2, 5 Color Set, Made in Japan | 5 granulating colors, Watercolor Paint Set, precise brush control, Professional Use, Artist Grade

Love playing around with these. The colors are gorgeous and they are high-quality and adhere to your medium and look fabulous.

Absolutely beautiful. It is incredible to watch the colors develop. No two strokes of the brush is the same. The effects using different brushes with this paint is amazing. Rich colors and a creamy texture that you can control with the amount of water you use.

This review is for the 5 color Granulating Colors I palette. These are some of my new favorite granulating colors and I have quite a collection of Daniel Smith Primatek and Schmincke super granulated. These are extremely bold separators with a somewhat unpredictable final result depending on water saturation and paper. The photo here of swatch tests is on a cheap Mixed media journal from Walmart and they performed very well. The Aurora Violet behaves like an extreme imperial or ultramarine violet. And the Aurora Orange is somewhere between Daniel Smith Serpentine and Schmincke Desert Green, but these Kuretake are less predictable— it is truly fun and surprising to work with these. They are the epitome of what makes watercolor special! I always love Kuretake palettes but I hope they make a third set of granulators and keep the new granulating colors coming!

I recently acquired three sets of the Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors. I decided to buy the combination offer as it roughly came out to $8.00 per set which is an excellent deal for artist grade watercolors. Each set contains full size pans at about 1.5x1 inches in size. All pans have individual numbers on the underside for product identification and good for individual replacements which are available. The pans sit in a cardboard package with a palette that can be removed easily. I cut off the end of each to make it easier to slide them out. All of these watercolors have opaque coverage, unlike regular watercolors and make them ideal for illustration and works where you aren't creating multiple layers of color. Starry Colors feature a range of opaque metallic golds and show up well on dark and light papers. The lighter gold presents as a nice alternative to a silver tone. The Pearl palette features pastel tones of primary and secondary hues and is suited best for light papers as all of the colors look somewhat similar on dark paper, but could work well for highlighting other darker colors. Lastly, is the Gem Colors and these honestly are the best set as far as coverage and pigment. They apply rich and beautifully but are especially brilliant on dark paper. The yellow color of the set is comparable to Finetec Arabic Gold which is popular among calligraphers. With all the palettes, you have to work the pan with a brush and /or prep it to lift the colors. Some have recommended misting the palette with a small spray bottle which I plan to try. Overall, these colors are excellent for accenting and highlighting artworks. I highly recommend them for artists who are budget conscious, but seek a quality set of metallic watercolors.

I love these paints! SOOOOO creamy and they lay down very smoothly. I haven't used them a lot, but I've swatched them out and played with them a bit, and I really like them. Many of the colors are nicely transparent and some are fairly opaque, but I like that variety. They ones intended to have a nice pearly sheen and sparkle. It takes a bit of water and some mixing with a brush to really activate them, but once you've got them mixed, they are very, very creamy. Just a note, I found these tins here on Amazon, and they work wonderfully for storing these paints. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076TJ75KT/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I have two of the sets in one, and the third set in the other along with a small tin of some hand-crafted watercolors. I added an adhesive magnet to the bottom of each tray to keep them from sliding around. (I buy adhesive magnet "rolls" here on Amazon so I can cut them to size - very handy for a ton of things!) In the tin that is holding the two sets, there is room to add 3 more of the large Kuretake trays laying horizontally between the two vertical rows or, of course, it would be a place to hold paintbrushes. I like how they are organized and also would allow me to take the paints with me to paint on the go.

This paint set is terrific - smooth and buttery! The colors are as subtle or as bold as you need them to be. Perfect for a 50th (golden) anniversary card.

I love the bright and saturated colors It is hard to find good, saturated, shiny metallic paints and these are great for the price.

These are so fun!! Did a little planet themed test swatch page but part of the awesomeness with these paints is that you can't ever really tell how it's going to turn out. Nice big pans of paint so it'll go a long way. The only one that didn't really have much color change was the cosmic green, but it's a lovely color anyways so I'm not mad. Would've also liked to have a more vibrant purple in the cosmic olive but will play around with it more. Could be a good plant color. I am obsessed with the cosmic violet, the picture does not do it justice! There are about 4 full different shades in that one, a red purple, a blue purple, a navy blue, and a bright blue/almost teal shade. Finally, I am curious how these will hold up with repeated use since water is what dissolves/separates the pigments. I am a little concerned that the layered color effect will become filled as the paints are used and water sits on top of the pans/mixes the pigments on top of the paint rather than the paper. But that may not actually be a thing so we shall see! Edit: editing to add swatches from the second set they have. I don't think I am quite as excited about these, they're still very fun but there is less variety in color and I feel application for these would be less broad. Still, great granulation on all of these!

El producto es de muy alta calidad es mucho más de lo que esperaba los colores son realmente brillantes con una sola capa, es duradero y creo que la calidad por el precio está muy adecuada definitivamente lo compraría de nuevo

ممتاز

These paints are beyond beautiful and very magical. They are a a must have if you like granulation and colour separation.

Beautiful colours
