Superior Watercolour Kit (18) Review

The pop-up ads on Facebook for the Superior foldable watercolour kit has been on a rampage. I ordered one in for a test drive... and to compare if with the Viviva Coloursheets.

This seems to be sold under another name now, Royal Langnickle essentials. The colors APPEAR to be the same, except for the black, which is MUCH MUCH more pigmented, almost gauche

I found another brand that "makes" this. www.lazada.sg/products/aicrane-18253342-solid-watercolor-paint-set-with-water-brush-pen-foldable-travel-water-color-pigment-for-draw-dropshipping-free-watercolor-brushes-i322090471-s645496971.html?search=1&spm=a2o42.searchlist.list.113

Love your pen case

[@AlvinMarkArt]

Haha... when I saw that at the store... I knew immediately that was it.

Which kit has the most paint per color swatch. It looks like the Superior pans have a bit of depth.

[@AlvinMarkArt]

Hi Carol, I misread your question the first time. Yes, the Superior has more depth. But the Viviva packs quite a punch! When I am done using them, I'll let you know.

Hi Alvin, Both palettes are a bit unconventional. For me, I still need some mixing area. I carry a piece of Yupo (heavy) paper for mixing. It does not take up much room and the clean up is fast.

[@AlvinMarkArt]

Hi Peggy, thank you for sharing this. I will try that someday. My main watercolor kit is the White Nights (12). The Viviva for me is backup.

[@surbhiagrawal1699]

Hey where did u buy the viviva one from. I'm from india. Can't find it!

[@AlvinMarkArt]

Hi, I think it’s only online, Surbhi Agrawal. The links are in the description box on the KZbin post.

What are the color names?

[@AlvinMarkArt]

I found a swatch made for this set on another video. This way you'll see the true colour of it interacting on paper: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3nah5uIjt6Hh8U
