These Pastels were recommended to me when I did a mentorship with the fantastic pastelist Karen Margulis. I hadn't heard of them before. They're huge for a great price, and soft without being too soft. They're slightly gritty in a good way and lay down good juicy color. Give them a try!

The silicone sleeve is useful to protect the gypsy and to give you a good grip. I plan on washing it in soap and water when it gets too grimy which i can't do with the machine =)

The screen protector is actually too big for the screen useless opting to buy another screen protector that i'll cut to size.

The is more for aesthetics it's really useless and doesn't enhance the product

The silicone skin is attractive, especially in comparison with the sleeve that comes with the Gypsy, however it is thin and does not really appear to provide much protection. Also, the screen protector film that comes with this item is about a quarter inch smaller than the screen on all four sides. I'm not entirely sure how this would protect the screen since all of the screen would not be covered.

I don't think it's worth the $23.99 retail price; I'm not entirely convinced it would be worth half that.

SO worth the money! The gypsy without it is sooo boring! And this isnt some huge chunky bulky weird silicone things, yes it is thin, but I think it gives all the protection one would need and its beyond cute so its worth the money, and my screen protector was fine, fit good. And I was pleased to see it came with a new stylus and lanyard for stylus! The only reason why I gave 4 stars was cause mine had a lil pink splotch on white area on back (size of a tip of ball point pen). But barely noticable!

I received this item very quickly! It was exactly what I wanted! It also came with a stylus and a screen protector which was a very pleasant surprise for me. It was all for a great price. What a great value!!!

This is NOT a cheap brush and is a particularly fine point one ...which is why I was disgusted to see that the seller just threw the brush in a large box without any kind of tube or cap covering the tip (which is how the other brushes from another seller arrived). As a result, the bristles were mangled when the brush arrived. Mangled bristles pretty much negate the purpose of an expensive, fine point brush. From my experience, I'll have to go through the bother of returning the existing brush in order to get a replacement. So I'll be eating the cost and never ordering from this seller again.

I couldnt believe I got this set for that price! I kept buying separate needle pairs until I came across that kit.

The quality of Takumi Clover needles cannot be beaten, it is great for those who prefer the soft and warm feeling of bamboo in their hands over the cold aluminium, for those who don't like slippery aluminium needles, and those who want to go the "sustainable" way. The case is sturdy and well made.

THe smaller needle sizes would be too fragile in my opinion, I would get those in aluminium if I had to.

Very smooth needles, the carrying pouch looks cheap but is actually pretty sturdy the only thing I don't like is the colors of the pouch look a little dead/dull but that doesn't affect how the needles work so I didn't let it influence my review. Overall the price is amazing and much better than going out and buying each individual needle. Very smooth no splinters.

I'm pleased with the quality of clover products and it come with a nice casing. It's a good investment. I don't have to purchase separately for the needles and it cost more. Value for money set.

I'm a professional artist and I use Liquitex paints all the time. I love acrylic paint and Liquitex is some of the best, despite huge marketing efforts by another brand, these are just as concentrated and just as good. They are just the right consistency to not have to be watered down. These paints are not thick enough for impasto but just right for most regular painting uses. The only thing I don't like about them is when you take the inner seal off the top you need a small knife to do it (at least I do) and usually the paint spurts out a bit. I wish they didn't have the inner seal at all, but I suppose it's necessary.

I love Liquitex even if it is expensive. It is better to use a single product line as you learn it's characteristics, both good and bad. I haven't found the bad part of the equation yet with Liquitex. This 8 pack contains a good selection of colors and the soft body is the original Liquitex. Liquitex airbrush medium thins these colors to easily spray in an airbrush. Buying the 8 pack reduces the cost per bottle very nicely.

I bought these for a painting class in school. Buying the 8-pack is a good bargain compared to the prices at the student bookstore. Loved these paints, highly pigmented and had a good viscosity because they are soft body paints. Not too thick (in my opinion, the Liquitex heavy body paints are too thick and hard to mix) and not too thin. Some of my classmates had the cheap Liquitex Basics line and you could tell a difference, these have way better opacity.

The fact that these have a flip top makes them so easy to access compared to the twist-top tubes. You can open them with one hand as opposed to two, which is important in painting because your other hand often contains your brush(es)! They can be squeezed out, so I reached for them much more often than my jars of paint which had to be scooped out. Bottom line: one-handed operation is a major selling point.

Unfortunately my cadmium yellow was all dried out but I didn't realize until it was past the 2 week return date.

Honest reviews on Liquitex Professional Soft Body Acrylic Paint Classic Jar 8-piece

These are WONDERFUL paints. They have a fluid consistency, but are incredibly creamy and highly pigmented at the same time. I have used quite a few brands of fluid acrylics before (everything from Golden to craft paints to Byzantias) but never committed to an entire set.

I purchased these Liquitex Soft Body paints for a painting class I am takingI figured it was a good way to get a range of colors in one shot. I have a stash of regular and heavy body acrylics, but not as many fluid acrylics, and as soon as I received the Liquitex paints and opened them, I realized that I have been missing out.

These paints have the same pigment and coverage as thicker acrylics (the acrylics with a toothpaste consistency) but flow beautifully (like syrup). The soft body paints are perfect for either "loose" painting or detail oriented work.

The colors are wonderful and the consistency is a lovely, thick fluid. I use both glaze and water to dilute these, but they flow so nicely, it's rarely necessary. They just flow across the surface of canvas (and paper) and are vivid and bright.

And this eight piece set is a *really* good value at the price I purchased it (thirty three) The colors retail from five to twelve dollars each jar, and this is a perfect started set with six basic color (mixable to many more) plus black and white. I would recommend purchasing this starter kit plus adding a few colors you love and adding as you go.

LOVE these paints.

These markers were used to paint on mugs and seemed to keep their color well for the first few days, then after the mugs were washed once or twice, they began to smudge and smear and were completely ruined.

These are great to use on many surfaces. They do require 2 coats to look right, but that is expected with most paint. The color came out great and evenly. I would recommend this to almost everyone, including kids that would like top decorate something like a bird house or other small project. Probably would work on shoes too....
