Brands like this don't usually have dotcards or pigments disclosed... And there's a reason! Worst pigments ever. So weird. I did like the Burnt Sienna though, real old school version of the color and single pigment too.
As far as I know, Neo means New. I think it refers to new formula or new recipe aka new hue without blatantly telling that it is a hue. Of course, we clearly know it is a hue, but someone new to watercolor might not know the differences.
It actually says in chinese neon orange but they just don't know how to translate it correctly so it 's "passion" orange . 😅 pigment numbers are weird because a lot of non lightfast pigments , none of the pro brands would ever use.
py1, py100, po13, pr3 and so on are rarely used in watercolor in western regions. more used in asian countries. still legit pigments with decent to high lightfast ratings most of the time
@@PaintinHiding I mean the names are just plain Terre Verte without anything more descriptive. By looking at the name we don't know which variant we will get.
Thanks, Vee! That was fun to watch. You had me laughing with your volume warnings. 🤣 Some of the paints look OK. Lots of fugitive pigments, though. Their lightfast ratings are very sus. I had the same thought about the Indian Yellow. That's a very strange PY129! I say SEE-pee-ah. ☺
Thank you for swatching I was interested in this brand because I kept seeing it pop on AliExpress but I almost never heard anyone talk about it. And wow are the comments a bit mean 😅
i'm glad you found it useful :D i think the criticisms are valid. maybe not all but at least it sparks discussion. i only take issue with the order of colours haha!
The audio wasn't that bad! I'd rather have your genuine reactions than music lol. Anyway, I have their color separating colors and those are pretty nice. There are some interesting mixes. But their regular range didn't interest me, it didn't seem like anything special or better than other brands I have.
Good grief... that is such a labelling mess and so full of typos. That kind of thing makes me doubt a business's seriousness. The lightfastness ratings make no sense with the pigments mentioned (dies of an OCT stroke)...
The many errors in the text show poor quality control - which translates into poor quality overall. They seem to have copied some German text (and misspelled it "Faebkarte" rather than "Farbkarte" ( on the cover). The italian text is also incorrect. A bad case of "cut and paste" + errors. I agree with other commentators: burn it and ventilate the place. Get rid of the bad vibes. The company has no shame! Do they think artists will not notice? Forget them! Kudos to you for trying to give them afair review, despite their own limitations. Thank you!
Good on you for sticking it out to the end, now BURN IT! Forget it ever existed and sage the room you swatched it in 😂
🤣 that made my day LOL!

Wild dot card! Thank you for your dedication to sharing this haha.
thank you Denise :D it's such a pleasant surprise to see a comment from you as i've been a fan of your content for a long time. hope you're well!
As I collect unusual or pretty pigments, some of these are intriguing...but others are kind of odd? Am very wary of the no pigment ones.
Mairtini uses almost the same pigments(even the highly fugitive ones) from kusakabe watercolor.
that’s what i noticed too, i wonder if there’s any relation
I think they are mixing the pigment so that they can call it "cadmium something". They are probably not very light-fast but seems pretty pigmented.
u might be right!

The pigment numbers seem very odd to me, never heard some of them, I don't think they can be compared to Van Gogh, a much more serious brand.

Thank you very much for the information
Hello! PY100 is very similar to PY150. That’s why the paints that contain them look like quinacridone gold and quinacridone burnt orange.
oh? i didn't know that, thanks for the info!
@@PaintinHiding Pleasure!
17:05 and 23:40 why do they want two different version of Terre Verte? XD
i think even with other brands, there are terre verte yellow shade or green shade. shinhan pwc has both. i cant remember for other brands.

thank you marcie! :D hahaha, i didnt know how to transition into the volume warnings so they’re so obvious 🙈😂
This is certainly....a thing ☺☺☺
🤣 i love that little pause of hesitation ;P

thank you Lup! i did notice this dot card did not include those colour separating colours. i wonder if there is more to the range or not 😅

😂 maybe this will have to go in my regrets video LOL
@@PaintinHidingOn the other hand...why dedicate more time to bad paint? 🤣🫣 Have fun with nice things. You deserve it!
The typography is offensive. Why cram the lightfastness, opacity, and pigment numbers onto the same line? And all caps script font for the logo? 🤦♂️
i feel you hippo~ D: even after zooming in, i could still barely read the english names
Well now I know 😁. The audio was definitly not that bad. Thank you Vee.
@@bleuvertetforetdepin thank you!
It's definitely a poor choice of logo design, and why are the pigment numbers so much bigger than the names of the colors?? 😂
Hi Hippo 👋🏼. So you’re into typography as well?
Are the bubbles caused by your paintbrush or the paints themselves? Either way, it’s obvious this company is not serious about their products or brand
not all the paints bubbled. so it was probably just those specific ones. i dont think it’s my brush. agree with your statement.
