Items matching the description. Very light box in the backpack and also suitable for the handbag. Obviously, the watercolor is not an extra-fine watercolor, it is less powerful than the extra fine quality pro of the same brand. For sketches hike, the proposed quality is still very correct. I planned to fill the buckets as and when they will be emptied by the pro-quality tube. Personally, the few colors do not mind (8 cups) and I was especially interested in the concept of a small box with 2 pallets for my mixes: one in the lid and the other in the very bottom of the box accessible when the bucket plate placed in his rather ingenious use position (perpendicular clipped). Its shape is nice, open holds well in hand or on the edge of the sketchbook, which is very convenient for watercolor sketches standing. Wet cups do not stick to the lid and stay in place if we reverse the box. It therefore perfectly meets my expectations regarding its concept and I have used a lot. Nevertheless, I take off a star for the choice of the particular shade of green, unusable for most outdoor situations sketches. A green bladder or Hooker would be more suitable. The concept of the integrated brush to cover is seen and brush seems very decent quality, however I find it too late for the intended use. Comparatively, the mini box with 8 cups of Sennelier, attractive aesthetics because, although smaller, has a watercolor of much better quality (extra fine) and a better choice of shades but is less convenient because unlike the ad, it has no integrated pallet: the cover is unsuitable for mixtures the bottom of the box is inaccessible, watercolor is integrated into a plate of soft style material packaging easily removable cell cake. So I need additional support. His brush is different, simpler but it is also inefficient. I have long sought unsuccessfully to very small packages to quickly drag makes the backpack to purse and I appreciate that these two large houses finally meet my expectations. I tested two products situation. Ideally, the quality of the Sennelier watercolor box in the box with Cotman pallets. Ultimately, it is the concept of Cotman box that is best for my use it quickly because I can make my mixtures and can later change buckets with higher quality. At the time, I recommend to my randocroqueurs partners.
