Blue Phthalo Pigment Set

Inexpensive for the variety and amount of pigments. Also has a good range of cool and warm colors for a split primary palette. The yellow is pretty neutral so it can work well for oranges and greens even if you don't get a warm and cool. A huge range of mixes can be made with this even browns and blacks.

I am a fan of these pigments. I use them for making encaustic paint. I’m finding that the colors are lovely and they mix well—less grainy than others.

Top quality pigments

I am having so much fun with these pigments. I do calligraphy and have recently gotten into watercolors. But the good, highly pigmented watercolors are $$$, plus, I like to make things myself. These pigments go a LOOOOOOOOONG way. The paints I have made are even more pigmented than the high-end watercolors I've bought.I've included a picture where I made watercolor with Prussian Blue and Quinacridone Magenta. They make great ink for calligraphy and great paints. You can see how the magenta and blue blend to make a nice purple.AND, the sellers are amazing. I accidentally got 2 prussian blues and was missing a phthalo blue, and they let me keep the extra, and not only did they send the missing pigment but 2 extra colors!!I highly recommend these pigments, and if you want to make watercolors, just google "diy watercolor" and you'll find recipes and instructions for mulling (a thing I didn't know existed until yesterday, but is essential for mixing these pigments and is FUN).

This is a great set of pigments. I am using them to make watercolors and they work amazing, the pigments are very strong. The colors in this set are good, there’s a warm and cool set of primary colors, a warm and cool purple, a green and an orange. You can mix these together to create any color. You get a good amount of pigment too. For my purposes which is just for myself, these pigments will last me years even if I paint every day.

Be aware that the pigment bottles may leak in transit, wear rubber gloves when opening and unpacking the shipment.I am a professional colorist and paint maker, though I have yet to make paint using these pigments, colors appear strong and finely ground ready to mix with binder using a glass muller and plate.This brand of pigments offer many color sets and individual jars at reasonable prices. I will buy again, recommended.

★★TLDR: I'm in love with this set and very excited to make paint with it ★★(For context, I'm coming at this from the perspective of making watercolors. Your mileage may vary.)i've been on a journey to collect transparent watercolor pigments without breaking my bank account. While I love the quinacridones (rip quin gold) and I have a deep appreciation for phthalos, I was hesitant to buy the pigments when I was unsure of how well I could mull them into a usable paint.Enter C.A.S. AlkydPro, a brand I recognize from the oil aisle at my local art supply store. I became immediately intrigued by the range of pigments, especially for the price. I purchased this ten-piece set with a 20% off coupon, and after waiting the week of shipping (not bad at all, especially during the holiday season) I received them yesterday.The pigment set was packaged efficiently in a box just the right size for the items, using crumpled up scrap paper, which I appreciate from this brand. Reduce reuse recycle, folks.As you can see in the attached picture, the containers are right around 3.25 inches (sorry that the only thing I had for scale was a yugioh card lol)The containers are filled nearly to the brim, with the quinacridones settling the furthest (maybe 1.5cm from being totally full). For the price, I am shocked by how much product you recieve.Each of the pigments has its index code listed, which is a major plus as the Amazon listing and the listing on their website are both missing some codes. I'll add the missing ones below:★ Phthalo Blue Green Shade is listed as PB15:4★ Phthalo Blue Red Shade is listed as PB15:2★ Phthalo Green is listed as PG7★ Ultramarine Blue is listed as PB29★ Prussian Blue is listed as PB27★ Pyrrol Red is listed as PR254I haven't been able to actually mull some yet, but I have incredible hopes for this set and am already making plans to buy more from C.A.S. AlkydPro. I will update my review with how they mull, and comparisons to pre-existing paints I own that have these pigments.

These are artist quality pigments for a good price. The 1.69 fl oz jars are perfect for making small batches of color, which is oil pastel in my case. Contacting this company is a pleasant experience. I will continue to buy pigments exclusively from CAS because I like to support small but quality companies.
