Thank you for always appreciating my work and effort. I will do these video requests of yours one day. I just need more time to prepare and need to organize the contents well. Again, happy painting. 🙏
Hey! If you are interested in just the pastels I wanted to recommend to you the pastel set by White Nights. It’s maybe a bit more expensive but not much but the quality is a bit better. They’re the same semi moist type of watercolor in full size wide pans, and the colors are AWESOME. They’re gorgeous! Also Kuretake Gansai Tambi new art nouveau set has a lot of beautiful pastel colors that expand on the spring color classic pastel ones I got from White Nights, and they’re also the wide pan semi moist ones. For a more high quality tube set, Holbein sells a 12 tube pastel set that are lovelyyyy and affordable. I bought this meiliang set but I didn’t need it- I just wanted a travel set with pastels and a metallic gold and it was super cheap in a pretty tin. If you haven’t found a set yet I hope you look into the white nights ones and hope you find some pastel ones you love! ❤️
I have the old 36 color set of Meiliang and love them. I do like those pastel colors in the 52 set. They're very pretty! Thank you for your thorough review!
Thanks for this Allan, I purchased the original set in the blue tin and was confused when I saw a paint called ‘Turkey Blue’ until I realised the correct interpretation should have been Peacock blue! It made me giggle every time I used the paints which I thought were excellent quality considering the very low cost .
Honestly the colors look so fun, I definitely would love to get them as a gift even though I own professional watercolor brands. I'm used to the sound roosters and usually wouldn't notice them but yours sure were lively today 😂
Yes, really fun set to play with or to doodle with especially if you own other pro brands already. It took me later than usual to shoot. I usually finish before the roosters warm up. But now Im shooting till they're almost done with their routine. Haha.
Great review, as always. These are on sale rn on Amazon (prime day), so I may grab them to test them. One thing tho: did you also test the Meeden watercolors in tubes? I don't remember having seen a review for those on your channel. If you didn't yet, maybe you could do a review for them? That'd be awesome.
Thank you. If you don't own the previous Meiliang 36, and you want pastel colors, you can get this 52-color set. I always hear about the Meeden to other artists like Lindsay W. But sadly those arent available in the Philippines, yet. May someday..😉
Hi , they recently upgraded the 52 meiliang solid watercolor, they got rid of the 11 macrons and replaced those with deep richer colors.. still 52 colors but they rid of the pastels which is better.. im waiting for you to maybe have the review on it.
Thank you, too. Sadly, i have no access to Art Whale paints. May has requested me to review it, but I can't find a supplier here. I hope a supplier will be able to provide here, so I could test and compare it. 🙏
oh thank. i saw the name organic Vermilion and was worried for a sec, O_O the actual vermilion pigment is very Toxic. but the Pigment they use in this set for it is just a standard red pigment. it looks like a decent set. but not something i would buy myself. but it does seem like a set one could recommend someone new to watercolors. interesting one color has PB17 in it. that pigment is Discontinued. so it's hard to find.
Nothing to worry as the vermilion in this set uses PR4. Genuine vermilion is PR106. I agree, this set is better to be recommended to beginners or to those who will use this in sketchbooks..as many colors are not very lightfast. 😊
Sorry for mynlate reply, but if it still relevant.. my answer is.. it depends on what you work on. If you'll use it for crafty works and dont mind thick paint texture, then go for Kuretake. If you like vibrant paints and do not care about lightfastness, go for mungyo. Meiliang is your choice if you want affordable paints that are decent for its price. If you want lasting paintings, probably go for professional grades and select just few colors say 8 to 10 and select well the pigments that are lightfast and basic.
Hello. Paul Rubens sent this to me to review as featured on this video. Currently, and as per checking, there are no official resellers of this here in PH. I found some sets on Shopee and Lazada, but look either suspicious or overpriced. I guess, we'll have to wait a bit more for this to arrive here. 🙏
@@AllanJayQuesada they do! 🥲 I wanted to get the set as an affordable option but it costs so much in our local selling platform. Following you on Instagram! Thank you for your time and dedication to the craft. 🥰
@darkred911 you may try to get the 36 colors set, there are some sellers at Shopee that I saw with credible reviews...if you dont mind not getting the 52 with additional shimmering and pastel colors.
Medyo masusi ang pag review nito. Na may konting kaba kasi baka hulihin ako kasi banned na nga eh. Hahaha. Pero yes excited na rin ako. Kailangan ko kalkalin yung nga pictures ko nung bata habang gamit ko to. 😅
A GOOD quality watercolor you can test out is MAIRTINI yes there is a I in Martini. its equal to Daniel Smith but at half the price. Its made in China.
The roosters were extra energized the morning I shot the review. 😂 🐓 ✌️
I was laughing at them. I was thinking the 🐓 was making sure he got some screen time too 😂😂😂
That was the most thorough and excellent review I've ever seen. The roosters were very happy as well.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for appreciating my work. 🙏 and yes, i shoot in early morning when the roosters are the happiest. 😂

If Meiliang one day releases their pastel colors on a separate set. Its an insta-buy for me. The colors look so vibrant and stunning 😭😭😭
That'd be a great idea for them. If Paul Rubens has released a shimering set before, for sure Meiliang can do a pastel set. 😊

A big thank you for your review.
You're very welcome and thank you for watching too.
Thanks for the review. I think the best part is the bird sounds! I wish I had chickens!
Thank you for watching too. And for liking the birds and chickens. The roosters are my neighbor's. 😊
Honestly the colors look so fun, I definitely would love to get them as a gift even though I own professional watercolor brands.

Wow Upgraded Active 52 Watercolor From China With Silver and Gold No Bronze Nice Allan
Yes. Sayang walang bronze. Hehe. But its ok. Thank you Lou. 😊
Wow I didn’t know there were so many different watercolor brands. I only have 5 brands 😊
Yes, the market is crazy. Haha. 5 brands are actually more than enough. 😉
New here - love the swatching … is the black line a permanent marker?
Lease always have the roosters in the background- love them!
Hi Susan. Welcome to my channel. I'm glad ukir loving everything including the roosters. 😁

Salamat po nang marami and God bless. 🙏
I appreciate your review of this watercolor set as I have been looking at it for myself :) Do you know how this compares to Art Whale? Thank you!
Thank you, too. Sadly, i have no access to Art Whale paints. May has requested me to review it, but I can't find a supplier here. I hope a supplier will be able to provide here, so I could test and compare it. 🙏

Hi, between this Meiliang, Mungyo and Kuretake which one do you think should I buy? If I have to pick just one, which is the best? Thanks!

What music it's beautiful
Hi, Allan! Can I ask how you got the palette and if it is available locally here in the Philippines?
