Magicfly Oil Paint, 40 Colours Oil Paint Set (18ml), Oil Paints for Artists

Much better than I was expecting. Good texture, not thin and watery or too thick and lumpy. The rose was a little oily/runny, but that actually lead to some interesting blending. A couple of minor things to watch out for: 1) Squeeze the new tube *very* slowly upon opening, otherwise you might get a massive dollop! 2) Each cap has a useful rubber seal, but they can come loose when you first open them - just poke it back in and then you're good. Three whites is a great idea, as that's such an essential mixing colour. Very big paint tubes are often better value for money, but these decent-sized 18ml tubes mean you can switch colours quickly and easily if you like to paint fast. Highly recommended!

Great selection of colours quality and value

This Magicfly Oil Paint Set is truly wonderful! I am very impressed with the quality, and I love these colours. The 40 shades included are extremely vibrant and highly pigmented, giving great depth to my work. They blend well and offer excellent coverage. For such a large set, this is fantastic value for money.

These were incredible value , in terms of range of colours for your money. However, I am painting backgrounds then trying to paint detail over them, and I am having problems. The paint seems to dry very fast, leaving a mat finish, with no sheen at all. When I try to paint over them, the background paint is coming off and mixing with what I am trying to paint over the top and this is horrible. I also noticed what seemed to be dry paint coming off on my hands when I handled it. This is not the behaviour I am used to when using Winsor Newton oil paints. (Update - It seems the paint looks dry long before it actually is. After waiting long enough this actually dried fully and was just fine.) I think I might be better sticking to WN paint or risk wasting time and ruining my paintings. Where a poor workman blames his tools, I think it is also good for a beginner to work with good quality materials to avoid this concern. For paint to try out and have a go with I think these are excellent value for money. If these had been my only paints, I am sure I would have been very happy with them. Mixing paint manufacturers is probably a mistake ( for a beginner ).

I've just started painting and am delighted with the set. Loads of colours, quality seems good to my amateur eye, quantity enough to do a good few small paintings even the most used colours

Good quality and range of colours . Great value

Great set for a hobby painter. The paint dries too fast, it's easy to mix but it's definitely not artist quality.

Bought for teenager who seemed to enjoy it

Ho deciso di prendere un set così grande di colori per aumentare il mio set, volevo riprendere a fipingere e evco che ne ordino uno arriva e ne ordino subito un altro perché scontato di tanto. Ora li userò tutti per dipingere. Si stendono bene e sono molto pigmentazione.

Goed

Da ich ein Anfänger in der Ölmalerei bin, war es ein Spaß, mit diesen Farben zu arbeiten. Sie waren sehr einfach zu handhaben. Die Auswahl der Farben ist sehr gut. Das Beste von allem ist, dass 3 Tuben Weiß mitgeliefert werden, die sehr nützlich zum Mischen sind. Das Ergebnis beim ersten Malen mit Öl war aber gut. Ich habe keine Erfahrung mit anderen Ölfarben von Gamblin, Van Gogh, usw., daher kann ich den Unterschied nicht erkennen. Eine Ausnahme ist, dass die Trocknungszeiten recht lang sind. Wenn man Schichten malt, dauert es mindestens 3-4 Tage, bis es akzeptabel getrocknet ist und man weiterarbeiten kann. Ich würde empfehlen, etwas Medium zu verwenden, um die Trocknungszeit zu beschleunigen. Es wird angegeben, dass die Farben ungiftig sind, aber ich fand, dass es während des Malens und des Wartens auf das Trocknen immer einen gewissen Geruch gab. Also würde ich es nicht für Kinder unter 12 Jahren empfehlen. Aber für Kinder ab 12 Jahren würde ich es auf jeden Fall allen Anfängern und fortgeschrittenen Künstlern empfehlen.

Très rapport qualité prix, la texture de la peinture à l huile est parfaite.

Gran variedad de colores. Es un paleta muy variada y completa. Incluso vienen 3 tubitos del color blanco, el mas usado. Espero que duren sin estropearse
