Martin 92-WP3024B Mijello Airtight Leak Proof Fusian Watercolor 24-Well Palette

I bought this watercolor palette over 18 months ago, it’s well made and airtight. The 24 slanted wells hold lots paint with two smaller mixing wells and one large removable mixing tray. I love that the case folds and it is easy to carry around. I am very happy with this purchase.

After first purchasing a cheaper paint palette (and returning it) I decided on this one and am very happy with my purchase. I've been painting for decades and really like this palette for watercolor. First, as you can see by the images, it's large! 24 pans work well for me and I like that the mixing tray is removable. I was also able to easily clean the two mixing areas in the paint pan piece and it's perfectly clean. What sets this tray apart from the rest: 1. Sturdy plastic! 2. Excellent clasp that keeps your box closed 3. Easily cleanable 4. Perfect size 5. Great value for the price I don't know if this palette is water and air tight as I did not test it, but those aren't features I need using this as a watercolor palette. (I wouldn't use this for my acrylic or oil paints because the pans are a little small for that unless you do very small paintings). Overall, I am very happy with this brand and palette and look forward to many years of use.

Great size for watercolor paints. I like the mixing areas and the fact that the larger one is removable for easy cleaning. I gave this four stars because it is definitely not airtight. When it’s latched, there is a good deal of space between the top and bottom of the case. I generally let my paints dry some before storing them so it’s not an issue for me. If you want to use this pallet for travel, I would recommend you let panes dry some or remove as much water as possible before carrying it to prevent leaking. If you use oil paint, I don’t think they would be usable for as long as they would dry out since it’s not airtight.

This thing is ginormous! Much bigger than I expected. And before you tell me to shut up and return it, you need to know that you will have to pry this palette out of my cold,dead hands. I love it. Once I got over the idea that I must have completely ignored the product dimensions when I read the description, I set up my tube paints in it and I love it to pieces. It has tons of mixing space, the wells are perfect, the closure is strong (And even makes a satisfying clicking sound), and it makes me happy to use it. You should also know that I am not a professional artist by any stretch of the imagination. I'm just learning, but I still love my new palette.

I have several of these for different paint brands and a smaller one for my preferred palette for florals.I've seen reviews with complaints about the hinges and latch, but those all date back several years. The manufacturer must have listened becuase I have no problem at all with hinges and latches. The paints will dry out if they're the type that don't have honey or some other softener in them. Shin-Han sure smells like honey, and the paints come back to life with the first touch of the paint brush. The very large try is excellent for mixing/preparing large amounts of pigment for washes and has a very nice little groove at one corner so that it easily lifts off. As someone else pointed out, it's a good idea to go over the plastic before use with a light scrubber so the paint won't pill up and be hard to mix. But this is also true of metal palettes. It's just part of the process. The staining paints will stain this, but they also stain metal. The only way to avoid that is to use a separate enamal coated tray or a dollar store porcelain plate. I love the way the wells are set out so that conveninence/specialty colors are easily separated in their own place, and the design of the wells is excellent. They're slanted down at an angle which makes it possible to add water to the edge of the paint if you want just a little. No need to get their entire well mushy and end up wasting paint. It also gives a little ridge you can use to drag your brush across it if you've picked up more paint than you want. I, too, got a few pans of Mission Gold and was sold on their quality.

I looked at tge reviews and sm shocked that some people gave this less than five stars. For the price, this is the best watercolor travel pallet you can buy. I wish they had a place fir a label and that it was offered in colors other than blue, but that’s because I have three of them and plan on buying more. I am stocking one with with Earth colors snd set up another for landscape painting. The newest one is for urban sketching. I’m buying a future one for botanicals and a general watercolor field kit, These lends themselves to you creating mixes in advance. I rush they made one either an unbreakable shell snd ceramic wells and mixing area. I know, it would cost three times more, but it would outsell every other field pallet made.

Mixing Wells are great. Giving a variety of places to mix. Watercolor. Would purchase again because of the leak proof and closure of the lid

This is not an authentic Mijello. It does not have their logo on it. Now that I own a real Mijello, I can see how much thinner the plastic is on this palette. Many of the wells cracked and started leaking into the tray underneath almost right away. It's definitely not air tight. The hinge just cracked right off. I did get a three years out of it. I think it's probably just fine for a beginner student.

Arrived in good time, was exactly what I expected. I like that the wells are on the one side. Nice size, could travel with it, but not as small as a one of the travel pallets - nice medium sized pallet. If I had any real complaint about this item it's that the mixing tray sits loosely in the one side and if you don't remember to open it with that side down then it's sitting on top of the paint side and you have to keep putting it back where it belongs. I knew this before I ordered it so it was no surprise. It's made so that you can use the inside of the lid as another mixing tray as well so I'm not sure how they can fix that unless they made it a little snugger fitting, or put a couple of clips on it.

Have just started using this but is great so far. No complaints.

La paleta supuestamente hermética y a prueba de fugas, al recibirla observe que tenía fugas, probé con liquido y se salía. Como decia la descripción en inglés que el color se mantenia húmedo durante días e incluso semanas, probé a poner dos colores acrilicos y en menos de 24 horas estaban secos. Ha sido un fracaso. No la recomiendo, porque no es hermética y además muy cara. No cumple la función que describe. La distribucion de la paleta está bien, pero el cierre es de plástico y al cerrarla se cae la paleta lisa y aunque la coloques bien, se ve que tiene holguras y no cumple su función. Voy a devolverla y buscaré otra mejor

Using it to keep tube paint useable and nice large mixing tray

Buen tamaño, buen diseño y buen material. Solo creí que sería a un poco mas delgada. Aun así excelente.
