Great video, Manal! :) I was thinking about ordering these to make a video but you beat me to it. Jacksons in the UK has schmincke for less usually. I'm a sucker for schmincke also. It was my first "pro" brand upgrade and I've always had a soft spot for them and the cool owl logo haha. Everytime they come out with some unique "gift" thing like this I end up buying it. Like the Giant half-pan 2 years ago that came with a coffee mug and stuff. Love them.
Love the tiny box, and have never wanted the one with the water tank. I cannot resist adding four pans to the middle and am very pleased with my retro box. Loved your painting. Hope you have lots of fun with this box. I would swop either the ochre or the raw umber for a nice cool red, or even an additional blue, if I had left my set at 8 colours. The middle won’t take a brush though so why not fill it up? I have both these sets but customising them has led to quite a different feel to each set. To have two of these and 24 colours is amazing and I have even added some dots in a little fold of Yupo paper. A good travel brush and one of these sets in my pocket feels great…
Actually the two yellows are supposed to be different, one is 215 Lemon Yellow PY3, the other 211 Chromium Yellow Hue Lemon PY175. The ultramarines should both be 494 Ultramarine finest, I'm not sure why one swatch came out so much darker than the other.
i don't understand why they included both Raw Umber and Yellow Ochre in this small set. I like the new Raw Umber; they just changed it, but those two colours are very similar. There's already a yellow, no? They might have put in a turquoise or a purple, or even Burnt Umber instead. :) P S - Jealous of that gorgeous box...
I don't need it but I already have it. The sample painting is amazing and a great way to show what this set can do.
Thank you. Yeah I feel that way bout so many palettes, it’s hard to resist😂
Painting was more helpful than swatch comparison.
That’s good feedback. Thank you
Impressive drawing and painting.
Thank you!
Beautiful painting
Thank you! Much appreciated

Thanks Jared! It’s so hard to resist these boxes.
Nice to see the comparison! I like Sap Green and Prussian Blue better than Viridian and Ultramarine.

Totally, I up fill up the middle part for sure! Thank you
Absolutely love those colors and your test painting was mmm 10/10 chef's kiss
Yes they are fun! Thank you so much. Let me know what you think of them when you do.

Oh interesting I’ll double check that. Thanks
Can you put a row of half pans cross the centre? If so, what colours would you add?
You can, but only certain kinds that are small pans. I hold add another blue, and lavender. Maybe a white too
Interesting content but the music is way too loud for the volume level of your voice.
Oh man, I’ll work on that for sure! Thanks
