Winsor & Newton Cotman Watercolor Paint Set, 20 Colors, 5ml (0.17-oz) Tubes

This is my review of Winsor & Newton Cotman’s Watercolor Paint Set Winsor & Newton are a standard in the industry for quality and consistency in their products, and I have been using them for many years. Their paints go from inexpensive to pricey. If I were to rate this set from 1 – 10, with 1 being their cheapest (and least quality) paint to 10, being their absolute best, I would place this set around a 4 or 5. That means these paints are great for the beginner, who desire a low-cost alternative, yet will still demand excellent results on the paper. Then, as you hone your craft, you can move up to more expensive paints. These paints have a smooth quality, and are well mixed when coming out of the tube. Three of the twenty had a bit of air in them, and when opened pushed out some paint, but not much. The colors are vibrant, and the mix of colors give you a nice variety that are suitable for any watercolor you choose to create. I use them by putting them into half pans and allowing them to dry. I can then take the with me on an outdoor painting excursion, and reactivating them with a bit of water. But whether you use them straight from the tube, or dry them like I do, I am confident that you will like the results you get.

This is a good product, especially for the price. My kids had so much fun mixing new colors and creating their own piece of art! This is the first one using this type of watercolor. It seemed thick and easy to use. We like all of the color options and the ability to mix them.

Dried these colors into a palette and they work wonderfully. Pigment is strong and colors are beautiful.

I am new to watercolor painting. After having a bad experience with some cheap palette paints, I ordered these tube paints and created my own palette of paints. I highly recommend these for any hobbyist painter! I have no idea if professional painters like this brand, but I love them. I also like that there aren't too MANY paints in the package. This was the exact number and variety of colors to help me learn color theory without getting overwhelmed with too many color options.

They leak terribly bad. While the color is amazing and great for me as a beginner. I thought maybe I received a returned item! But after coming back to the reviews I see that this is common for these tiny tubes.

I arrange Cotman's in a 24 half pan storage. The half pans were getting empty. I couldn't find individual tubes at a reasonable price - so I got these. These tubes will fill half pans two times. I use Winsor & Newton Cotman because it is more affordable, durable and consistency is good. My finished pieces (for self) are bright and I have not had any issues.

Beautiful colors. I know they're student grade and I bought them for a class I was taking, even though the teacher suggested Winson & Newton professional watercolors. Unfortunately the professional were out of my price range. I was very happy with the results (and my teacher didn't complain).

Pretty nice color

Jag gillar Winsor & Newtons färger, kommer att köpa mer av dem

The colors are so soft for landscapes and also vibrant at the same time.

I bought this 20-tube Cotman set to fill my travel palettes. The paints are smooth, have good transparency, and dry well in pans. The color selection is practical and versatile. Excellent value for money from Winsor & Newton

Fast delivery, product as advertised.

Winsor et Newton, peintures avec des pigments de très bonne qualité et sans danger pour la santé !!!! Concernant mon coffret les tubes sont bien remplis sauf un l'alizarine cramoisie, les couleurs sont fidèles à l'article . Je recommande vivement !
