Fun!! I have a very old huge (like 15" x 9") paint box from the 1950s or 60s I got on eBay that is very similar to your vintage ship box! More or less the same picture. I bet it's the same company (made in UK.) I only bought it for the artwork on the box. The remaining paints in mine are trash (although the box says they are "Non Poisonous"), but I can't figure out how to get rid of the metal grid thing under the blocks of old paint that I'd have to cut out with metal cutters or something, and I'd probably need a tetanus shot afterward. I was actually thinking today that if I ever win the lottery I'd like to collect old paintboxes. They're way too expensive to justify buying all the ones I think are pretty or cute. But I do think they are cool.
For sure, I fell like having one vintage paint set is enough for me! Felt so special to get it local too! Paints are definitely not something I'll use anytime soon though, Thanks for the wonderful comment:))

i dont paint so much, in 4 years I still find I'm in a stick doll phase yet , but I have to say I bought a lot of paint, van gogh, meliang , pentel, lukas aliexpress, professional I have the white nights from ali and I found a great promotion in the winsor and newton kit and jesus how diferent is the cotman to WN , I have to paint more. Here in Brasil art materials are more expensive and more dificult to find , in te coutryside is more easy buying online , here I just find scholar watercolor, pentel and artools and the paper that I hate the mix media by canson, I preffer xl aquarelle by canson that don't sell here in my city, I hate the line texture and the paper don't hold well watercolor and layer!!! I like the colorfull schimink pallete and the skinny one I think very cute!!!
I love hearing other peoples prefances, it really does make a difference where you are in the world as to what is more accessible, online ordering is truly the easiest way to try a verity of affordable watercolours. I hope you do start painting more it can be so relaxing after a long day :)) Loved reading your comment
Eu to mudando de volta pro brasil no fim do ano e resolvi pesquisar na amazon daí, quanto custa o que eu costumo usar. TO CHOCADA! To sacrificando um monte de despezas pra poder fazer um estoque de coisas pra levar se não tem chance de eu nunca mais pintar. Não faz sentido. Depois de converter de euros pra reais o preço em reais ainda é 2 a 3 vezes maior. Às vezes 4 x mais. A marca que menos tem diferença é Daniel Smith. Ta uma média de 1.5 x mais depois de converter. Eles tem um kit inicial de 6 cores (2 de cada primaria, uma quente e uma fria) que eu recomendo. Ta 290 na amazon. E é uma das melhores marcas que tem. Eu acho que esses tubinhos de 5ml enchem esses potinhos quadrados 3 vezes.
@@Music-ct4cj pô com as novas taxas ficou tudo pior o estojo de 36 cores da white nights que comprei por 300 hj tá mais de 600 aqui varia de 800-1000. acho que se vc puder dentro do seu orçamento comprar tubo se passar no aeroporto das cores que vc usa mais na qualidade que vc gosta se for profissional ou estudante, alguns pinceis novos na numeração que vc usa se eles forem de melhor qualidade, aqui um pincel simples estudante sintetico vai de 20-60 a depender do tamanho a unidade. Papel eu tenho receio de mofar caso a pessoa n use em tempo , pelo que passei com mofo aqui , a depender da frequencia que vc pinte pode valer a pena trazer uns 2-4 blocos, o papel que vc mais acha em qualquer lugar , eu n moro na capital só acho ele é o mix media da canson que odeio o xl aquarele é melhor e n tem textura de linha. Eu comprei muita coisa pelo ali express, ficar sem pintar vc n fica porem a qualidade do seu material pode diminuir a depender da marca. Quais marcas vc usa ai ? Meu sonho ir em uma loja cheia de material de arte!!!! Do ali pra onde vc tá as marcas mais bacanas são caras?
Sofro com os preços aqui no Brasil tb!! MAS achei uma paleta de rosa gallery na Amazon, e a black Friday valeu bastante a pena esse ano tb! Morro de vontade de provar Daniel smith mas o custo benefício não fecha 🫠🫠
I loved the giant 48 pan plastic cotman box. Though I think cotman are the worst student grade paints out there and not worth the money the box itself was really handy. One thing to know is that I had mine about 12 years and the plastic went a horrible shade of yellow white like it has been in a smokers house. I had to throw it away. Even though I have lots of palettes now I would have kept that cotman one as a main palette had it not turned yellow. Edit: I love the long thin schmincke. I realised the other day mine would be good for en plain air because it has lots of little mixing areas and is light to hold with the ring underneath. The more mixing areas the better when outside.
Definity agree with you there, not a huge fan of cotam paint and I've found the white night container really nice to use between the two of them! Mine thankfully haven't yellowed yet... I love the thin schmincke palette to take places, fits so easy in my bag, great paints and so much mixing space!!
dang, quite something to forget to mention, It goes by a few brands but the one I have is by Jasart and is call the voyage watercolour travel set. Definity recommend it!!
All the product names are now in the description as well as a playlist of all the reviews done on them :))
I enjoyed watching your video! 😍
I love a pallette tour! Glad i found your channel as I look forward to checking out your reviews:)
Yay I'm so glad you enjoyed the video!! Hope you like the other videos I've created:))
21:55 My FAVORITE 🤌
Thank you!! Was so inspired by all the mini art supplies I kept seeing 😆

Second to the cotman being the worst 😂 also yes opening that box is so hard! it hurts every time!
@@anastasiagoreva9239 yes I think I've except I'll never like the box 😭😭
Where do you buy the Schmincke granulating cardboard box sets from?
I did buy them on Gordan Harris and jacksonsart.com but I have a feeling they're being swapped out for the set of 3x5ml tubes now
❤
Girl i wish i had these many watercolours 😭😭😭😭 nice video though😊
Thank you! I literally only buy paint so have gained quite a few 😅
So at 14:51, you talk about your travel set that you love,but you don’t mention what the brand is.
dang, quite something to forget to mention, It goes by a few brands but the one I have is by Jasart and is call the voyage watercolour travel set. Definity recommend it!!
I can barely hear you, but I can hear the noises when you open your paints pretty loudly.
Yeah that'll just be due to my not having a proper mic, Sorry about that!
@@ElviesArt It's okay, I thought it might have been something like that, just thought I'd mention in case you weren't aware. 😊
I do appreciate it :))
