Probably doing something stupid.. Please help.** A: Yes, this is a problem, and I assumed I was the only one experiencing this until I read the reviews here. I plan on buying museum putty to provide a firm but temporary hold. My half pans (and I am referring to the actual plastic "holder," not the block of paint) are both loose and rock back and forth. Not sure what the problem is. Wearing down the paint may help a bit when it comes to the brush actually lifting the block of paint out, but nothing short of some sort of external adhesive will fix the looseness/unevenness of the half pans. (I may be misusing the terminology - I always think of pan/half-pan as referring to the plastic housing around the paint, not just the solid block of paint within the housing.) **Q: what size is the brush?** A: The brush is approximately a #6 and 4.5" long. I am getting one of the store-in-the-handle ones because I personally prefer a longer handle. The one it comes with is of good quality. So if you are comfortable with a short brush you will be fine. Best of luck. **Q: what are the colors** A: Colors are: Lemon Yellow, Cadmium Yellow, Cadmium Red Pale Hue, Cadmium Red Hue, Alizarin Crimson Hue, Purple Lake, Ultramarine, Cerulean Blue Hue, Viridian Hue, Sap Green, Yellow Ochre, Burnt Sienna, Burnt Umber, Chinese White **Q: does the paint fall out of pans?** A: Yes and No. If they are brand new, it can. But once you start using them, the melted paint will fill the gap between the paint and the pan and they will dry out to stick to the pan. Hope this helps! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Watercolour set *by C***S on 7 December 2025* I got this for a friend who I inspired to do watercolouring, and my friend wanted a small set that they could take around on their travels.

Delighted. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fantastic affordable set for anyone wanting to get into watercolours. *by A***E on 23 March 2018* I decided to try watercolours at the start of the year and bought this set at a bargain price of around £14. I am a complete beginner so my review should be viewed in that light! First impressions are that this is a very complete set, with a range of colours to get you started in whatever style you want to try. There is a cool and warm shade of each primary, plus 2 good greens, a nice purple, and some good neutrals (burnt sienna and raw Umber). After swatching and playing around I found I wasn't completely happy with the colour choices, as there are 2 shades of cadmium red hue included. This is certainly just an element of taste! So I replaced one of them with a half pan of a different red, to give a little more choice. Equally, I haven't really used the white, and have popped a Paynes Grey in its place. I really like the layout of the palette, it has some good sized mixing spaces and sits nicely if you are out and about, thanks to the thumb hole. I also like the look of the palette when closed. It's a great size for slipping into my handbag or into my supplies drawer when at home. However the plastic dies stain with some pigments. This has not been a problem with the included paints, but with some pro paints that I have since acquired. The cotman brush that came with the set is good, albeit very short of course. I don't mind the handle length but I can imagine that some people might find it difficult to hold. It is a useful size 5 round and I have used it a lot. I would like to upgrade this as some point to a retractable brush, to avoid any damage when in the pallette. I have also used the brush holder to hold a pencil and rubber, and a slim water brush (the Pental ones don't fit) so it has other used too. I have got on very well with the Cotman paints. I particularly like Ultramarine (nice granulation), the greens, sienna and Umber. The colour choice is not too wide, so it does encourage you to explore colour mixing. Equally it gives you more choice than just starting with the primary colours. I would highly recommend this set to anyone who fancies dabbling in the medium, or anyone who finds professional grade paints too expensive for their budget. I am completely hooked and it is thanks to this lovely, affordable W&N set! ## Frequently Bought Together - Winsor & Newton Cotman Watercolor Paint Set, Field Set, 14 Half Pan w/ Brush, Mixing Palette - ARTEGRIA Watercolor Brush Set, Sizes 2 and 6, Round Quill Mop Brushes with Fine Tips, Soft Synthetic Squirrel Bristles, Short Handles - Escoda Perla Series 1430 Short Handle Round Artist Watercolor Brush, 8, White Toray Filament --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/50165884-winsor-and-newton-watercolour-half-pan-compact-set](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/50165884-winsor-and-newton-watercolour-half-pan-compact-set) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-10*
