Kuretake ZIG GANSAI TAMBI watercolor set (36 Colour Set)

Product Information

As I mentioned in the video, there are several people online claiming you cannot get the English names for these watercolors. Use this cheat to get the most out of a cheap set if you just cannot afford a better quality set right now. Also, if I let them dry in my palette, they just turn into big flakes which makes them impossible to transport.

However when there are too many colours, it will be difficult to identify because the colours will look too similar and that's when you will find a colour swatch table really useful.

Both Kuretake and Kissho offer the cardboard box sets but the Kissho seems to be the only one that sells the plastic palette box set. So, I am grateful to have the English names and be able to share them with you, so you can understand which colors I use in any future videos. The shimmer in comparison to re-hydrated Twinkling H2O’s versus non-hydrated Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors, is no contest in my mind. Since releasing this, the individual colors have become available and you can see them below and perhaps try just a color or two to see how you feel about them.

I have used your chart (Thank You) and for a beginner both the colors and the books and so wonderful. What I like about the paints is also the size of the pans itself – they are big enough for large size brushes, without getting paint in the neighboring pans. Understanding your colours and mixtures well is more important with Kuretake, especially if you come from using American and European watercolours. The soft nylon brush tip of Clean Color Real Brush allows for a wide range of brush strokes from broad to extra fine. I love working with water colors but have always stayed firm with the brand I like, but now I have to give these a try.
