I think that Paul Reubens watercolors , their pro line, in particular, are fine. I have a set of 12 that I haven't used that much, but I recall them being very good...they didn't wow me or anything, but I thought they were fine. Are they exactly on the level of a number of the other widely available & premium watercolor brands made in the US, EU and Japan and some other countries? Probably not, but as with so many other things, as long as the people buying them are satisfied, it doesn't make much difference. That's not to say an artist selling their original works doesn't need to know and feel secure about the quality levels of the paint they're using. They do. I do know that PR has a pretty good reputation from many of the reviews that I've seen on KZbin and I've watched a lot. At the same time I don't see any of these same artists whose videos I watch the most, talk about & use Paul Reubens as a fave as much as I do with their use of Daniel Smith, Schmincke, M Graham, Holbein, Sennelier and some other brands that are becoming more and more popular. I just don't hear the mentions or raves. I think of PR wcs as in the same boat as White Knights from Russia. Both very good quality, but rarely picked out as a brand of choice among professional watercolorists. That may have more to do with marketing and availability of these brands, both at brick & mortar stores and across many online sites outside of Amazon.

[@IllustrationsByPete]

I agree. The paint isn't bad quality but not being able to buy open stock means I'll never use them as my main paint. I would hate to have to buy a set in order to get a single color I used up.

[@Bugiddle]

Forgot to add: I do have a set of 36 Meiliang Watercolors, which is their student grade, I guess. But I love that set! The colors are all different, and there is a nice range of each primary. I use them probably even more than the professional grade set I put together from tubes.

[@phillipstroll7385]

There is no law or science which determines what is student and what is professional. If you do something as simple as look at a search under a microscope you'll see white nights are no different than Rembrandt or Winsor Newton or any other "professional" grade. Moral of the story is, use what you like. Most professional artists use cotman anyway. Don't forget youtubers are paid to sell you shit. They are infomercial actors. Nothing more

[@IllustrationsByPete]

I have not tried those but if they work for you and you are happy with them then that is all that matters. 👍🏻

These videos about color are like ASMR...is that the expression? Just lulls me in the background. Your knowledge of color details amazes me. Color fastness, granulation, words I've never heard before (quina....something?)...fascinating. I'll be watching this one in smaller chunks, cuz I just took on a project to help out a writer friend. Must go look at your new work...need some more. :) Have a great week!

[@annelemaitre302]

I have a small 12 pan set of Paul Rubin’s. It works for a travel/ sketch set. Daniel Smith is much better, but expensive. I am slowly building up my DS set. Until that is done PR will work

[@IllustrationsByPete]

They aren't bad at all. They paint out well and pop off the page. Daniel Smith is definitely better in my opinion but there's nothing wrong with these. 👍🏻

[@labaccident2010]

I have a couple sets of these, and their old tube sets, and I absolutely love them for the illustrations I use them for. They don’t move a ton in water, but i have a bottle of ox gall for that, since I also have Shinhan, Mijello, and Holbein paints. I do love their pozzuoli red ochre, mixed with quinacridone violet. It gives such a yummy granulated look.

I'll have to try that combo. Thanks! 👍🏻

Hi again! I just got a bundle of the PR Granulating watercolors and they are fun. They put a lot of money into the packaging and presentation. They are very pigmented and as far as I know they don't use dyes or fillers, optical brightners. If they are pure pigment and also highly pigmented, I consider them professional. Fun to hear you 🎉

[@IllustrationsByPete]

I have not had a chance to try that set. They sound fun. I enjoy granulating paints very much. 👍🏻

[@TerrieJohnson731]

@@IllustrationsByPete I think I would go for Daniel Smith and Kuretaki Graphite colors for the best granulations. Shminke Horadam has some good ones but pricey. I ordered Daniel Smith Lunar Black, pbk11, and I am going to mix up my own. Also the Primatek range is awesome. I have been filling a DS palette a little bit at a time for awhile. I'm truly addicted to watercolor. I splurged tonight. I got some nice results from my student grade watercolor pencils and I jumped off after years of waiting... FABER CASTEL ALBRECHT DEUR! 55 00 for 36, but WOOT! No more waiting!

[@IllustrationsByPete]

I love DS primateks and I use them the most when I want granulation. They are always in my main palette. 👍🏻

[@appleknocker56]

Somehow I got lucky & got Paul Reuben’s (4th edition, 24 set) and had different symbol. Moved up to Da Vinci but got mine in tubes & got several pans. Most colors work well & some feel not so much but most single pigments. Glad saw had changed lil guy as looked to close to Van Gogh tin.

[@UJB123]

Haaa! Yup. I figured out what to do with unsightly bright greens ... mix them with Neutral. That produces some awesome greens 😉

[@IllustrationsByPete]

Thanks for the info! 👍🏻

[@snowsjournal]

Loved your biased review, so entertaining 😄 There are a few nice colors in this set and the pink tin is beautiful too 😍 But the naming problems are not very professional. In a world, where Rosa Gallery exists, I don’t see the need for these PR paints 😅

[@IllustrationsByPete]

I would agree. I enjoy Rosa's much more. Glad you enjoyed the video! 🙂

[@mikepolo2887]

It is so refreshing to see someone with color preference so similar to mine: I dislike cool yellows and warm reds, and pure ultramarine is ugh (but it mixes great, so I always have it on my palette to mix blacks).

[@IllustrationsByPete]

Some people just have different preferences but it's nice to find someone with similar taste. 🙂

[@creativespark7371]

Thanks for your honest review. I will be honest, I am not into a lot of these watercolor sets that many KZbinrs and social media influencers claim are "professional grade" and are so great, inexpensive, etc. The colors are typically made of cheap and/or multiple pigments, the sets have very similar colors instead of a wide range of different colors. And in all honesty, the sets, especially this Paul Rubens set, are waaaaaaay overpriced for what they are. I do not purchase "viral" sets like these. It is a waste of money for me, and they are items that I would never use past swatching. They would only end up in the trash-so I do not buy these overpriced sets because I don't like to waste art supplies and I definitely dont like to throw money away. The only "inexpensive" watercolors I use are Mijello Mission gold tube sets, as they actually are professional quality for very inexpensive prices. And I have a very cheap set from hobby lobby Masters Touch I was curious about, which was actually pretty good for the $24 price mark. And I have my very first Cotman palette still that I use in my sketchbook on occasion just to get the paints used up. Other than that, I stick with my Daniel Smith and Winsor Newton Professional set that I created myself from tubes. And if I want to switch things up or get new inspiration, instead of buying these cheap viral sets, I purchase a new color or two of DS or W&N and switch up my small 8 pan palette colors to colors I rarely use with new ones.

[@IllustrationsByPete]

Thank you for sharing. I usually don't buy these sets for personal use and I'll probably give these away. I just do this to get as much info out as possible so people can spend their money wisely. There is so much misinformation out there about art supplies. 👍🏻

[@Karenfree2202]

Hi. I’ve binged watched your videos again You have a lot of info for me and I am a novice Don’t understand why I need to know the pigment ingredients but oh well.

[@IllustrationsByPete]

Thank you for your support and I'm glad I can help. The pigment info will let you know if anything is considered toxic and how light-fast the regular pigments are so you know if the company is trying to pull something. Other than that it's just some nerdy art stuff. 🙂

[@sunnycharacter]

I have the PR pro set of 24 (in the pink case etc.) I got a few years ago. I really like them! Thank goodness it isn’t chock full of yellow!

[@IllustrationsByPete]

They aren't bad. The 24 in pink I believe is their main set and then the other 24 are the supplement set. I'll keep them around. They painted out brilliantly. 🙂

[@sunnycharacter]

@@IllustrationsByPeteThe thing about this brand, is that the generation version you get can be worlds apart in quality from other versions. I have a good one! We as consumers can never know until we try them out.

[@sunnycharacter]

Also, I think a better variation of color choices would help this set.

[@sunnycharacter]

I agree on more tin color choices. I would love my 24 color set in white, black or dark blue.

[@IllustrationsByPete]

I agree. I've seen big color shifts and quality shifts from version to version, even on the big brands. They definitely need more tin colors. 👍🏻

[@catflyhigh]

my monday evening is safe now, a full feature film from Pete \o/ Because you wanted to vomit bc of the color of the cloth and the tin: I know in english you only have one word for the color pink, here in Germany we have a ton of different words for the different shades of pink. This one I would consider a "schweinchenrosa" which probably would translate to something like "piggy-pink" I hope this makes you smile.

[@IllustrationsByPete]

It does. 😂 I'm glad you enjoyed this. 🙂

[@Beckelby]

o/ That made me smile too 😊

[@IllustrationsByPete]

🙂

[@Beckelby]

To me turquoise leans blue and teal leans green but I never use those words, I just use "blue green" 😂 Also, with the olive green, my guess is they just added enough red to desaturate it a little and that's why we can't see the red? Also also, Alexa interrupting you was hilarious, I'm so glad you left that in. 😂😂

[@IllustrationsByPete]

Ahhh, another crayola kid! Blue-green and green-blue are much more correct than anything else they come up with. I think you are right about the red. What's funny is sometimes Alexa doesn't hear me at all and I end up losing my patience and just googling things myself. 😂

[@MissJanaMac]

I like that u agree about there not bein "Student Grade" paints. I believe that as well. I believe in beginner, intermediate, & professional...based on light-fast, movement, & the way it acts/granulation. Which professional artists should/will be able 2 make the best of the paint they're usin. Unless the paints are just that bad/trash.

[@IllustrationsByPete]

👍🏻

[@Lauraisabelgonzalezart]

Annnnd one more thought... I have the remaining colors from their original 5ml tubes from several years ago. They came in a set of 24 or 36, I believe, and they were/are amazing. I found them to be truly vibrant and consistent and just as wonderfulas the Rosa and Black Days. I think their quality has gone down. I'll just continue to invest in DaVinci or the Utrecht brand. Those are pretty neat!

[@IllustrationsByPete]

Those are 2 more brands I need to try. I've used DaVinci gouache but never their watercolor.

[@IsabearsMomma]

I have the meilang and love it. But lots of empty pans so I want to upgrade. I’ve had this 48 in my cart for a week waiting for it to go on sale. Qor is on sale now! Which set would you recommend ? 😮

[@IllustrationsByPete]

I hesitate to give a recommendation because I am partial to QOR. I have been having so much fun experimenting with them and have switched to their paint on my main palette. I enjoy how much they move and flow in the water. It's mesmerizing. That would be my pick but you'd get less paint for your money. I'd say go with your gut feeling. 👍🏻

[@3534538]

For me the "tin-policy" is too inconsistent. I know that colors sometimes get changed or updated.Bbut if I'd have to do some research to find out which generation my tin would be I'd stay with my current collection and skip the Paul Rubens. Of which I have the "schweinchenrosa" and the mint tin, but those are mainly used for coloring in coloring books 🙂 I debated myself if I should watch such a long video but the winning argument was that it is from "my favorite grump, Pete" 🤣 Thanks for the entertainment AND for explaining the colors while swatching them 🥰

[@IllustrationsByPete]

I'm glad I could entertain you for such a long video. The generation was the most confusing part to me. I think this is one behind the current one. I'm not sure though. I think they only offer the newest generation in tubes.

[@Wacky_Whimsy]

Some of those names are just wonky! I am a pigment nerd, so I'm used to pigments being named slightly differently, but when Raw Umber looks like Raw Sienna, that's just wrong! I will say, however, some of your most hated pigments are some of my most favorite mixers (like PG7 - though I would NEVER use them straight from the pan) Great video, love your commentary!

[@IllustrationsByPete]

Thank you! I used to use PG7 as a mixer but it just stains everything and I need to be able to clean things up and have them look new again after I use them. I'm one of those artists who always has a clean palette and a little ocd. 🙂 It is a good mixer though.

Yes, their paint flows a lot, and that is one thing I really enjoy about using QoR.

Once again, you're cracking me up! Remember, Google Translate is your friend! Lol Still watching, but too heavy on the yellows. And several pairs of colors look exactly the same. I wouldn't be happy about that. I don't really like those emerald green colors! Too bright. I don't know where I would use them. I mostly do florals and it wouldn't look natural. I don't have any Paul Rubens in the pans, but did get a set of neon colors in tubes from Temu, just for fun. I will mix them with regular watercolors for different effects. Except I did use a pink mixed with purple straight to make the solar flares at the edge of the moons"s shadow in an eclipse painting.

[@IllustrationsByPete]

I agree about the paint. I don't mind that they offered the pink, but they should've had other options if they were going to go that route. That's all. Just like a bright cool yellow would be just as off-putting to me. I just wish they had more neutral tones for the tin.

[@TheRainyUmbrella]

Not to bag on a lot of these popular youtubers but they usually like these sets cause they probably have never used real professional quality paints (which hurts my soul). Its like the himi gouache, they don't know better so of course they like them.

[@IllustrationsByPete]

It could be, but some of these people I see saying these are great are people I know use big brands like M. Graham, Daniel Smith, and QoR. I just don't see it. Btw I've never used Himi because they just don't look right. I don't understand people.

[@godzandheros]

I don't think the labels are wrong with the umbers and siennas as the pigments are correct, I just think the brand got confused on what is umber and what is sienna. The raw umber looks like a raw sienna, and the umber a burnt sienna.. then the van dyke is accurate depending on what brand you go with though could be a raw umber as well, then the burned sienna def looks like a burnt umber, and i would say burned brown is accurate to it's name as well 🤷🏻‍♀ also all those greens you hate aren't meant to be used on their own and are work horse mixing greens for floral and landscape painters lol Oh yeah and as for the teal and turquoise debate, turquoise to me is what is usually considered "cobalt teal" and teal to me is like a "phthalo.. turquoise" go figure 🤦🏻‍♀

[@IllustrationsByPete]

I think you're right. On the newest generation of paint the color names are closer to standard. I think the exact opposite when I think of teal and turquoise. 😂 I wish they all followed the old crayola crayons from when I was a kid and left it as green-blue and blue-green. That would be clearer. 😉

[@godzandheros]

@@IllustrationsByPete I relate turquoise to the stone which is that light opaque blue like cobalt teal and then teal to like the transparent electronics that were in the 90s and early 2000s like the blueberry imac/ibook, or the transparent blue N64 and matching controller, etc

[@berolinastrassmann]

I would never buy a 48 set, i don't need that many colours at once. I have a 12HP Paul Rubens set, its OK. Not having open stock is a deal breaker for me. I already prefer brands that offer stable, consistent assortments (what is all the generation nonsense? Are they experimenting still?). Established companies offer lots of information about their R&D, testing, safety data (in lanuages I can read) and good quality control. None of this is available with Paul Rubens, this is again a deal breaker for me. With Schmincke, for example, you can download safety data sheets for all their products, their colours are consistent and very reliable. I prefer to build my collection with single pigment, high lightfast colours which are available open stock, from companies that provide detailed and accurate documentation with excellent quality control. Production standards and working conditions are also a factor. What does that look like for PR? Paul Rubens just doesn't make the cut for me on so many levels. Thanks for this refreshing honest review, it was comprehensive and thorough. Will check out your other reviews, I just discovered your channel. Thanks again!

[@IllustrationsByPete]

Welcome to the channel! I agree, I don't buy brands for myself that do not offer open stock. Everyone was raving about how good these were so I decided to give them a test run and let people know if they are what people say they are. I figured, if they are good, I'd need the 48 color set so I could pick my 12 I want to use. Normally I also try not to get sets in general as they usually do not have colors I would use. They were ok but they have too many strikes against them in my book.
