    I got my set and some individual pans of rosa, white nights and roman szmal from artemiranda. They sell all the white nights sets,pans and tubes. The sets you have here are 30 usa dollars. The godets or pans are 2.50 usa dollars. The store is in spain and they ship internationally. They carry hard to find brands at the best price. In fact right now they arw the only store i can find that is selling the mijello two tone tourmaline color separating granulating paints in the 5 sets, the big sets, and they even have the tubes available individually. Its incredible. They also have the new holbein granulating paints. But the new holbein look awful and have alot of white pigment and also dyes that fade. Im very excited about the new mijello paints tho. Thank you for the swatch video. I have the earth set but am still tempted by the other one even tho i really do not need them! I hope to see some video(s) of you using the white nights in the future? 😊

      Hi there 🤗 thanks so much for the the valuable info. I think 30$ is good value, considering they come from long distance. I got this for almost original price from Tashkent(20-21$). However on Amazon.ae they are a bit pricey (68$).
      I know we can mix our own granulating paints, still there is that temptation 🥹
      I’m currently tempted to get Kuretake granulating paints, but holding myself.
      I will do my best to work more with White Nights watercolours. Haven’t tried Mijello, are they good?

      Where did you find the new Holbein granulating watercolors on Artemiranda? I looked all over their site and didn’t see them. Do you know how much they charge for shipping to the US? I’ve never ordered from them before, but their prices for some paints are lower than Jacksons now, so I’m thinking about it.

    • @blankmission5369
      @blankmission5369 Місяць тому

      @@aqua_coloring They were featured in the new section on the home page. I no longer see them on the site. Just see the mijello and hordam naturals now. I remember looking at the little swatches they have too, even tho I detest the thought of most of the new holbeins. Too much white pigments and dyes and they do not flow properly. At least the regular holbeins don't. I do not think I am misremembering? Anyways some of the new mijellos remind me of Daniel Smith primateks. I am still waiting for someone to PROPERLY swatch them to see which tubes or set I really want. The shipping was under ten dollars. I think it might have been like 5 dollars? My order took about a week to get here. I was pretty impressed. Only thing is they need to at least put some pigment info. It took forever going back and forth from Rosa and white nights websites to make sure I was ordering the correct pigments I wanted. In that order I got some of the granulating rosa pans along with white nights and if you like greens may I suggest buying the jade green pan from rosa? I am just in love with the granulation and color separation of that particular pan. They make a lovely pr122 as well!
      I couldn't find the hordam natural mini tube sets anywhere except st Louis..so I emailed artemiranda about them and they said they would have them as soon as they became available and now they have them a month later. So at any rate they will have the holbeins soon. It's just weird because I know I saw them and I also saw the luminous holbeins too and there gansai set holbein makes. I also saw the shimmer sets from white nights on the featured or new products page and they are no longer there either. I went and looked at the open stock holbein tubes just to be sure and I do not see them. And that is where I saw the swatches. I am sorry. But yeah I am very happy I found that store. I found them through a UA-cam comment on some watercolor channel.

      @@ColourWithKami You managed to get them practically for free! 😀 Everyone is overcharging for the white nights and Rosa's too right now. They are not easy to find at correct prices. The kuretakes have dyes in them so if you try to scan them the dye part does not show up..Also these dyes can fade very quickly (months) if exposed to light. Just like markers and pens which are also dye based.
      But they are beautiful especially if you layer/glaze them slowly and build up the color they have a very unique texture.
      Yes. Mijello is a very good brand but it can be tricky getting the correct set. I would only recommend the pure pigment gold set. That being said they are good for beginners as they are just regular colors that do not granulate and they are VERY vibrant and saturated so it is helpful in the sense of making one learn color theory and color mixing and how to mix neutrals and desaturate your colors. For the serious beginner who is starting out with watercolor painting (and wants to step up into professional or artist grade paints) if it made sense money wise I would start with those or the Daniel smith essential split primary mixing set of 6 tubes. Also some color separating paints such as Cascade green by Daniel smith are impossible to mix due to how the company manufactures them and the particle sizes have to be ground and milled to the correct size for each particular pigment so that the particles and pigments flocculate properly (when the right amount of water is added by the consumer) and separate apart and also some particles float on top while the heavier particles sink into the valleys of the paper. So while the color of some special paints can be duplicated the property's and characteristics of some of these paints cannot. Keep in mind I am talking about color separation and not granulation. Even with the dusk or shadow colors, I have found it is sometimes hard getting the mix dark enough while maintaining the correct value of the other pigment In the mix. But thankfully alot of them can be replicated. Thank you again for doing a proper and also beautiful swatch of these paints. I can't tell you how many people get it wrong. ✨

      @@blankmission5369 I know right?! Otherwise I would probably still pay more on amazon (for reasonable more😅)
      But if prices were too much hiked, I would look for alternatives like Rembrandt or Van Gogh, these I can get for reasonable price at my local store here. Or even W&N cotman seems okay on Amzon. As much as I love Daniel Smith, they are going to cost me, since it comes from US, so Amazon prices hiked up for me. I got one small set of DS for 42$ when it was reduced a bit, Alvaro Castagnet series. No idea if it is fair price, but they are different from others. I do like these. Would love to try primateks one day.
      I will probably won’t get Kuretake ones. I’ll keep my eye on mijello. Rosa - I have seen them only on Amazon. I didn’t see them where I got WN. I’m assuming these will be overpriced on Amazon. Have you tried Rembrandt chameleon glass watercolours? These are fantastic.
      Much appreciated your feedback on watercolours 😊

    I love PB 28 as well. I have been getting the PB 28 from Sennelier, which is their Cereleun Blue. It is a little bit expensive. I wonder if White Nights has a blue version as well. I think Jackson's art has it and I plan on ordering it from them soon, as it is a little less expensive, and I heard their house paints are made by Sennelier. But I have the white Nights granulation set (the one with the blues, greens and purples, and a red that you showed above, forgot the name already.) I love it too, they are more affordable, and I plan on getting more of their granulating colors as well as some of their other colors. Do you like white night tube paints? Thanks for your review

    • @ColourWithKami
      @ColourWithKami  19 днів тому +1

      Thank you so much for watching 💜 I heard good reviews about Jackson’s art, no wonder it is made by Sennelier. White Nights does have cobalt blue (508) with PB28. I don’t have granulating paints in tubes by White Nights. However, I have them in Van Gogh. When it comes to granulation I prefer pans, because I noticed that pigments get separated in tubes, especially when it is mixed with PBk11. This is my experience with Van Gogh watercolour paints. I do still need to try granulation tube paints by White Nights. I feel they will also get separated. As for normal and nonmixed granulating paints, I like both tubes and pans. Pans are great for mobility. The issue I have with White Night granulating pans is they take a very long time to dry, they might not even completely dry at all because of the climate that I live in. Someone in the comments recommended I place them in the fridge.

      @ thank you for your reply. I guess I was talking about the brand rather than only granulating paints. Refrigeration sounds like a good idea for super soft ones. I don’t know if white nights makes granulating paints in tubes but I saw before they had some of their regular paint in tubes. I will have to see if I can find review on UA-cam. Yes I noticed white night stay softer but I prefer that over hard ones like winsor and newton and Holbein although I still have favorites in all those brands

      You are more than welcome 💜
      So far I’m satisfied with White Nights tubes, however, I have seen some reviews of people complaining, that they had only half of the tube filled. I still have unopened tubes, will have to film when opening those. I guess I wouldn’t feel that bad because I paid almost the original price. My humble advice, you need to cross-check their original price with a source where you are going to get them. For example, they are way overpriced on Amazon.ae. They are good paints if you get them at a decent price. I have not tried W&N and Holbein, so I can’t compare them with White Nights. Do you have their Cobalt blue? In White Nights the Cobalt Blue in the pan is quite challenging to activate. You have got to wet it and wait a few minutes before you can start using it. So I guess a tube option for this would be better. Also, Ochre Light PY43. If I’m not mistaken, these are natural pigments. I prefer the synthetic ochre which is PY42 because it is just easy to activate. Well, I guess it depends on the preference of each person 😊 Good luck with getting new paints 🍀 and have fun with them!

      Thank you so much for watching and for your comment. Most of my content is about colouring books for adults and art supplies, stationery, and things that are not suited for children. Artist’s grade paints and mediums can be toxic and can cause allergic reactions. These can be harmful if goes into our blood system through cuts or if inhaled. As adults, we would know how to handle such stuff, unlike youngsters. I hope this clarifies the reasoning behind the disclaimer.

      Hi 💜first of all I would like thank you so much for the support🤗. I’m sorry to hear that you got a bad batch. They should have replaced it for you. Some of labels also were stuck, but all were dry paints. However after using these, my paints are still kind of wet. So I am assuming they take time to dry, like days. Have you tried Rembrandt or Van Gogh watercolours, they are very good, and Van Gogh has dusk colours which are granulating too.

      Do you live in a humid climate? Some brands like White Nights, Dayler Rowney and Sennelier are gooey, indeed, but you can still use them. Yours probably aren’t a bad batch, it has to do with the binder. You'll have to keep them open so they cannot get mouldy. Windsor & Newton or Holbein might be a better option. Their pans are much drier from the get go. I even find them too hard, but I do live in a dry climate.

      Hi Sue -- I am sorry to hear that the paints you bought were an unworkable consistency to use for your projects! After I I watched this video, I went to Amazon to see if they offered any of these paints, and I was surprised to see that they had a good selection, ...... some of them affordable for someone like me who doesn't have an unlimited budget for art supplies! (This was on Amazon USA ) I paint watercolor flowers, so I really liked the lilac and ruby mist colors, along with the yellow tutt and orange mist (for bright centers) and the yellowish-green for leaves.
      They offer the half pans for $12.99, (the gooey ones) but they also offer mini 3-tube sets for $19.99, and I'm wondering if the pigments in the tubes might "behave" a little better and be easier to work with. They also have a 12-tube set ($39.99) and a 24-tube set ($79.99) If you don't need a bunch of colors, the mini sets might be a way to go! They also post a link to the White Knights Amazon Store, which is interesting. I hope this helps ... these are some gorgeous colors! All the best to you! ♥ - Monica
