Swatch & Timelapse Painting with Kuretake's Gansai Tambi Art Nouveau Muted Colours Palette 

I looked at so many while waiting for it to be restocked!!

Oh Thank god I am not the only crazy one doing that, LOL I jump from one review to the next 😀

Thank you!

The colours are gorgeous aren't they?! Thanks!

Ooo - I think you'll love getting these new ones then!! I did reach the bottom of the pans with one painting and was slightly surprised, but it's just getting used to the fact they are so much wider - still tonnes of paint! It's just a different system when people are used to standard pans.

This is an older video, but they are in stock again on Amazon at least, I think still on back order with Buddly Crafts though.

Yes, no chance I was going to miss out on these when they came back into stock! When I put leaf details on top of the under layers, this paint was totally opaque - very like gouache. It doesn't cope well with doing that on thick under layers though.

That's very kind of you, thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you!!

Beautiful aren't they?!

I know - I totally jumped on the bandwagon!

As soon as I saw this set I searched and searched until I found 1 available at an online store I cannot seem to remember. Was thrilled when I received and they truly are wonderful paints. I know this is monochromatic but here is my 1st with this set…photo to follow

Thank you!!

Thank you so much!!

Thanks!

Thank you!!

Thanks so much! It's good to hear your thoughts!

I've just been back to Buddly Crafts, and seen they've sold out again already - I'm really sorry. I put my name down for the email for when they restocked, and bought it straight away.

@@helencryer I went straight to their site when I saw where you bought them…but not one left. ☹️. I’ll get a set eventually, I hope. 🤞🏼🙂 I do have other gansai tambi sets, but these colors are so soft and pretty. I love the muted colors.

Fingers crossed for you xx

@@helencryer thanks Helen! x

Thanks! ☺️

Thank you!!

Thank you! That's so frustrating!! I'm like that with various American products!

Thanks!

Hiya Debbie! Yep, lovely!!

Thank you!!

I'm not sure about this in my case - 'pastels' would appeal to me too! Thanks!

Thank you!

Haha, definitely! Thank you!

Thanks!

The thicker areas of my painting are slightly shiny too. I think that's normal for Gansai Tambi. Thanks for your comment - you've made me want to get mine out again too!

Yes! Thank you!!

It's quite a hard one! It would depend why you want them. If you want to use them like gouache paints and don't already have gouache, then I'd say go for it. If you want to use them as watercolours and don't already have watercolours then go for it. If you already have a decent range of nice watercolours then you don't really need them - I don't think they're as nice as my other watercolours, and you can mix all the colours up yourself (I did a different video on that). But they're a very pretty package and 'thing' to own! I'm glad I have them, just to have tried out Gansai Tambi, but I won't be buying more.

🤣 Definitely a good enough reason!

Hi, sorry about that! I used 8 for the swatching, and 4 for painting.

I know that gouache is opaque because it has larger pigment particle size than watercolour, but I don't know if that's the case with Gansai Tambi. The Gansai Tambi binder is also different, so I don't know if that affects it at all.

Yep! It's luuuuuurvely!!

I think I used a couple of different brushes. One was a Betty Hayways brush (with the pink end), and for finer details I used a Silver Black Velvet brush.

Hi, sorry, I'm only aware of Buddly Crafts and Amazon, both of which are out of stock again, till 28th April by the looks of it (for Buddly Crafts). I just went on the Buddly Crafts 'notify me' list last time.

I don't, sorry!

@@helencryer I am also quite in love with the doll picture and would love to try my hand coloring it following your video since I have the same watercolours. Have you given any thought to tracing it and selling it as a coloring page? I mean if the picture is yours which I am suppossing it it?
