Review: Great Paints - Have Held Up For Over 5 Years - I bought this over 5 years ago now (closer to 6) and it was my first actual artist grade watercolor set. They have held up great and honestly they might preform even better now than when I got them. I haven’t used them all up yet because a little truly goes a lot way but I’m definitely going to be a little sad when I have to restock lol. They’re VERY pigmented and vibrant which I have come to love. You can water them down, sure, but I love how opaque they can be. Not gouache opaque but opaque for watercolors. I didn’t know what I was doing at first but I fell in love with just playing around with paint on the paper doing abstracts. You can get some amazing effects because of the paint quality and characteristics. They also mix REALLY well together. The only drawback for me personally is how big the container is. It makes it awkward to work with on my desk with everything else out. It has lots of mixing space if that’s important for you but I don’t think I’ve ever even used the lid portion to mix. I have recently put them in a more traditional palette which is smaller (but holds more paint) and sturdier metal and it works a lot better for me. I’d love if they offered these exact colors without the palette for that reason and for when I have to buy more in the future. Anyways, you get an amazing range of colors of high quality paints for a reasonable price (for professional watercolors). I love this brand and how the paints preform. They’re highly pigmented, able to be used in a wide variety of techniques, and easily mixable. They’ve also lasted me a very long time without losing quality - I also still have a little left in the tubes because they last so long. The tubes are small compared to most average tube sets or individual tubes though - that’s mainly so they can fit more colors without upping the price. I definitely recommend getting a separate palette to hold the paints though just to save space (I have one that holds 48 half pans and is still significantly smaller than the plastic one I originally got). 10/10 recommend especially if you’re just getting into artist grade watercolors.
Review: so worth the splurge- beautiful, luscious, and SO vivid - I am absolutely and completely in love with these watercolors. I've used different brands of watercolors for years and I can honestly say that I've never had any paints that are as vivid and "full" as these colors. I am really just blown away. Besides these Mijello watercolors, I have a palette full of colors from other brands (Sennelier, DaVinci, Shin Han, etc.) and figured that I was done. But when I saw the Mijello Mission Gold paints demo'd, I had to get a starter set to try for myself. These are my new favorite paints. You get 36 mini-tubes (enough to fill a half pan, or the wells in the included palette, which is very nice) of a wide range of colors in the line. And most of the colors included are shades of ROY G BIV- not a ton of browns. Sometimes when you get starter sets, half the colors are shades of brown (which I feel can easily be mixed...), so it's nice to get a set where most of the colors are bright. The colors offered in this set are so lovely that when I went to the art supply store to fill out the collection, I could only find 12 of the range of 105 total colors that I felt were different enough from the 36 colors in this set that I felt were a good addition to the set (normally, I have "full set syndrome"). I just can't recommend these enough. Just use a GOOD quality watercolor paper- they work well on scratch paper, but to see the true vibrance and intensity of these paints, only a decent watercolor paper does them justice. But even on Strathmore 300 (used for a little experimental color blending) the colors were insanely beautiful, and the paint literally danced around the page. These watercolors truly make me a happy, happy artist. Splurge on them- you won't regret it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: So i've been dabbling with watercolors and decided it's time to buy some better watercolors. should i go with these or winsor and newton cotmans?**
A: For me, personally, I prefer the Mijello Mission Gold class watercolor paints to the Windsor Newton Cotman watercolors. The “contest” between the two isn’t even fair, IMO. As another person pointed out, the WNC are student grade paints, and the MMGC paints, particularly their mono pigment line, are generally regarded as professional artist grade.

**Q: Can anyone compare these with Dan Smith & Schmincke for quality?**
A: Each brand of professional artist grade paints are exquisite in their own way. Daniel Smith paints are really fun, innovative, and pigment packed. IMO, the Daniel Smith line is the most beginner friendly, in that they offer essential mixing sets at reasonable prices, and their whole philosophy seems to be about offering great products in a way that teaches people about color theory and blending colors like no other line I’ve seen, in a very understated, non obvious way by rewarding the curious innovator with color “Easter eggs”. I’ve always wondered if the folks at Daniel Smith had been teachers in a previous life, because I find that I’m thinking and exploring more with this line in a sometimes unconventional way. The Daniel Smith guys are innovators. Schmincke is just exquisite, elegant, offering delicate but intense and powerful pigments that are presented in a more conventional, structured way. Exquisite is the best word for Schmincke paints.Their website offers lots of useful information for the beginner, and they also offer small mixer sets that are quite wonderful. Now, the Mijello Mission gold line has, to my knowledge, two lines of watercolor sets: the 36 count, and the 34 count. The 34 count, plus black and white, are really noteworthy and remarkable for being monopigments. That means that each color offered in this set is only made with one pigment, no blends. The end result are beautiful clean vibrant but delicate colors and color blends. Now, the MMG 36 count is made with both mono pigment tubes of color, and also some blends. Each tube contains 7 ml of paint, and an awesome plastic studio palette. When I bought my 36 count set, think I paid $54, which is an awesome deal, I think. I would think that this set would be a lovely, luxurious choice for a beginner. Even the set that includes both monopigments and blends provides beautiful colors. The MMG monopigments set is, in my opinion, a professional grade set.  I paid $160 for my set, and I use it constantly. When I think of Mijello Mission Gold watercolors, I think of the clean, vibrant, bright, but delicate colors. You can’t go wrong with any of the choices you are asking about. All are excellent in their own way. Hope this helps!

**Q: Do mission gold watercolors contain Ox Gall?**
A: I just looked up information on this question. I am posting a link here about what I found.. .I hope this helps.   https://milenabblog.blogspot.com/2018/02/mijello-mission-gold-pure-pigment-set.html       they said from what they have found, that is does not contain ox gall

**Q: What colors does this set include? And what is the size of the tubes ?**
A: In simple English 7ml and that's 1.42019 Teaspoon for the colors look here: http://www.mijelloart.com/36-color-set-with-palette.html

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent beginners set
*by C***R on October 10, 2018*

If you are upgrading from economy watercolors this is an excellent set. It contains 15 single pigments, including black and white. If you are new to watercolors it is important to have single pigments so you learn to mix your own. The rest have more than one and they are good convenience colors as far as you used them as they are. If you start mixing them too much you don't get nice clean colors, rather muddy. I find these to be one of the most pigmented bright watercolors. They are mostly semitransparent, which explains the luminosity. They sometimes can be too bright, specially if like painting nature. More water than paint will show great undertones (light version), at that's probably the best way to start using these. Even though the browns are not varied they are nice for basic things like bark and mountains. They re wet super nicely, like butter. If you plan on making pans with them they dry nicely, don't remain sticky yet they re wet right away. It is probably my favorite part about them. I know I won't have a soupy palette on the go. That being said if you mostly do nature, landscape things be patient because this palette is very bright. To achieve more contrast can be a challenge if you don't know how to paint well yet. The palette itself is a hard, durable true white, like the white from most lotion bottles. I didn't have much beading happening. I don't particularly enjoy the wells, it is personal liking because we all hold the brush so differently. It is a big palette, so you have plenty of room for mixing, it is big enough that I place smaller rectangular plastic palettes on the flat side to keep some mixes from getting dirty. I have enjoyed this set very much for learning more about watercolors, and the paint is so pigmented that a little goes a long way.
