5.0 out of 5 stars Convenient and Compact August 25, 2010

By TeriDactyl

The Koi Watercolor Field Sketch Box with 24 colors is just the most amazing and handy little set! The watercolors are cake-style and are fairly decent quality for the price. The little case has a built in mixing pallet you clip to the side to mix your colors, a little dabbing sponge to wipe your brush, a thumb hole loop on the back of the box to hold it comfortably in one hand, and even a little built in water reservoir to dip your brush in--not that you'd need it with the awesome Koi Waterbrush.

The included collapsible Koi Waterbrush is incredible. (I also recommend Niji waterbrushes with this set for more brush size variety.) A waterbrush is basically a hollow plastic tube with a brush screwed on at the end. You fill the hollow tube with water and squeeze it while you're painting or mixing your colors, and it automatically moistens the brush tip. No need for a separate water jar! They're great for traveling and everyday use.

This set is the only thing I take when I travel now. Lightweight, compact and cute as a cat's nose. Paired up with my Moleskine watercolor notebook, I'm set to paint wherever I go.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Field Kit August 28, 2010

By Grandma GG VINE™ VOICE

I purchased this to be part of my granddaughter's watercolor field kit. It is small, comfortable in any size hand, the colors are lovely. Each of the colors is in its own separate little indentation so she can replace them as needed with watercolors from her tubes at home. A lot of sketch boxes have squares of paint that set in a tray, so the colors cannot be replaced out of tubes. The advantage of using her home colors in the field kit is more than financial -- it enables her to use her favorite colors in the field as well as at home. The snap-on mixing tray has turned out to be very convenient allowing her to choose the most comfortable position. This is a well-designed product and we highly recommend it!
