Hi friends,
Today I am reviewing the new set of Meilinge Watercolor. There are 52 colors in a metal tin with a brush, pencil, fineliner, watercolor paper and sponge. It is available here: amzn.to/3ZrBMCk
Pros:
Pigment & Lightfast info are included in the brochure (not on Amazon tho)
Paint rewets easily
The standard colors mix well
Comes with a high-quality golden Taklon aquarelle style brush with a beveled acrylic handle
Comes with a nice fineliner .05 size, pencil, and sponge
The gold and silver are nice nd can be mixed with the transparent colors for pretty effects
Contains pastel (Macaron) shades
Paint is in metal pans that you can pop out of the plastic and adhere to the tin with self-adhesive magnets if you wish to move them around (which I did)
Comes with 3"x8" watercolor paper to get you started.
Comes with swatch card you can hand color and pigment info is on the card
Only 16 colors overlap with the 36 sets if you want more colors to add to your collection
Relatively low price
Cons:
Colors can get muddy when mixed is you use too many colors or the pastel shades
The arrangement of colors may be confusing or overwhelming.
Lots of mixed pigments
Bottom Line:
I still prefer the 36 set of Meiliang "pretty excellent" watercolor. Even though the quality is the same I think the color selection on the smaller set is more useful. That is totally personal preference tho. You can see both sets and compare here: amzn.to/3ZrBMCk The paint pans are a touch larger in the 36 set as well. It's good paint, it really depends on the style of tin you like better and the colors you prefer.
