This is a great little kit for experimenting with acrylics. However the size of the tube is entirely too small, so I would avoid buying these if you're an art student but rather invest in larger tubes of the colours you absolutely NEED instead.

-They're okay when extended with medium. You have to use a lot of them in the medium to not lose the colour. I recommend using a professional medium with them if you can afford it. I definitely noticed a difference when I used Liquitex gel mediums vs Golden or Winsor & Newton.

-The pigment load is okay, but will not look "vibrant". Some of the colours are noticeably brighter than others when mixed with medium (Pthalo blue looks great for example, whereas primary yellow tends to look flat)

-They don't hold up to the test of time well, the lightfastness is not great but definitely better than other student grade paints.

I recommend these for:

-New painter

-Experimentation with new techniques

-Children/teenagers who wish to start painting in acrylic (do not gift medium with this kit, wait to see how they feel about the paints first)

I do not recommend these for:

-Art students and hobbyist painters (you need way more paint than this so just buy the bigger tubes and save money)

-Paintings you intend to give as a gift (or keep)

-Paintings you intend to sell

-Anyone past "student" level as these are student grade paints.

I finally got around to ordering a new Liquitex set. My old one was all dried up, as I had not used it in a while. Good colors, and always fun to paint with. They cover all sorts of things, such as wood, stone, paper.
