Been doing a spot more testing of some new paints.
Just a wee tester piece of Rothesay castle. Mijello Gold watercolour paints on A4 size Clairefontaine Fontaine 300g HP paper.
After seeing a lot of hype on Youtube about these paints I decided to buy a few tubes to try.
First impressions not great. They are supposed to be transparent but have an almost opaque nature to them.
Also the colours seem a bit bright and artificial. Some colours also seem to be made up of mixes of pigments making them hard to mix.
I also had problems with the colours I mixed separating in the paper.
For me a bit disappointing.
