I’m a working illustrator and I’ve been brutal on cheaper sets—these hold up with real pigment density, and the lightfast rating means my commissions won’t fade in a year. The 48 XL pans are so generous that I haven’t hit the bottom of a single well in three months of daily use.

The pans are genuinely XL, so I’m not rationing colors like with my old set. Mixed a deep violet that stayed rich even after it dried, and the lightfastness rating gives me peace of mind for commissions.

I’m a harsh critic of paints and these rewet beautifully even after sitting in the pan for a couple weeks, which surprised me. The tinting strength is genuinely impressive, and the 48 colors cover every shade I’ve needed for detailed botanical work so far.
