These are new produced line of paints, created by a hobbyist who wanted to create cheap, quality paints.
I have not used them yet but the testing received great reviews on CMoN and I will be adding these to my collection.
The translucent paint range is ideal for those looking at glazing and improving their blending.
One of the big advantages is they are priced at 1.60euros or £1.16 a bottle.
A set of 8 paints retailing at 90wuros or 8.63.
So I believe you are looking about 50% cheaper.
I should also add that the testing showed they had a much longer drying time, without the need for a medium.

Does the longer drying times affect painting quality in ny way, or does it just get in the way?

Not at all, it will actually help with blending. I can't wait to try them. The metallics and inks will be released in a couple of months.

Thank you for bringing these to my attention. Having not used my paints for...well more than a few years, I expect many of them have dried out. Wasn't looking forward to replacing them, due to the cost, but figure what's the harm in trying these instead!

No problem, if these paints are as good as suggested then it will save us all a fortune.
I like the look of the purples so I will order these as this is a colour I don't have enough of. Once I try them out I will be reviewing them.

I've just received my first set of these. I ordered all the purples and I like the way they look in the bottle. £9 for 6 bottles delivered from Cyprus - can't complain at that.
I hope to be testing these out very soon and I will update my findings.
