Brushoby Colourcraft BRU85358 Brusho Crystal Color Set 8 Brusho Crystal Colour Set

These are fun pigment powders. I have used them alongside Karen Rice tutorials. I did what she recommended and pierced a hole in the top with a pushpin so that I can sprinkle just a little of the pigment where I want it.Be warned: it’s very easy to overdo it with these AND if you open the lid, they’re liable to get EVERYWHERE!

Very vibrant! A little goes a looong way. Be careful. This stuff has the potential to be VERY messy! It is loose powder. One tiny, almost invisible grain will explode with color once wet, and it is very staining.Some of the colors are a bit different than one might expect. The rose red is exactly rose red. The burnt Sienna is kind of an earthy dusty rose. Reminds me of very diluted Daniel Smith’s Piemontite watercolor. Terracotta is more of a deep coral. I couldn’t get the olive green to mix, so it stayed bright blue and orange. I’m sure that was user error. The moss green is beautiful! It separated into yellow, brown, dark blue, and green. Lime green separates into aqua blue and orange, but is definitely yellow/green when mixed well. The sandstone is a lovely soft orangey brown. The yellow ochre separates into blue and oranges, but is a nice transparent yellow ochre when thoroughly mixed. Please keep in mind that I sprinkled a very tiny bit of each color onto a wet surface. I wanted to see what it would do. I have no doubt that when mixed with water BEFORE touching the paper, it will give a solid color.I am looking forward to experimenting with this medium. It’s going to be a lot of fun!It does purport to be non-toxic, but my advice is not to allow children to play with it unsupervised. It has great potential to make an uncleanable mess.

The Brusho Crystal Set is quite amazing as an art product. The 15 gram pots are more than enough supply for years of cautious use. And one should be careful because the fine powder can easily be over-applied. It is best if you tap a tiny amount into the cap to see if it is the correct amount for your particular use.It is a versatile product. Tap a bit into your palette and use a pipette to drop in a tiny amount of water until you have the amount and density desired. Or wet you paper specifically where you wish to place the color and sprinkle the dry powder onto it (I love the bloom of it when it gets into a generous amount of liquid).There's no shimmer that I've noticed in the colors I've used so I was confused by the mention of "crystal" in the description. But no big deal. The colors are vibrant and useful. I like.

These are so much fun to use. It's a surprise every time. Very vivid colors. Just need a little sprinkle to get bright vibrant color.

It's a lot of fun!!!!Nice addition to my watercolor collection and hobby. They are fabulous colors, easy to use, practically fool prove - need to watch few demos on YT.One only thing, that caused one star - there is no blue color, which is kind of upsetting...primary color is not included and you can't make it from mixing other colors. So I have to use regular watercolor.

Powerful, vibrant, explosive color crystals.Only a little bit goes a long way.But work on a newspaper or something you can just fold up and throw away when done. One tiny crystal will explode with color if gotten wet on clothes or anything else.They can be used for backgrounds or be the star of the show by themselves.Great with multi media projects

Awesome colors! I paint in watercolor, and have been looking for some that have more pigment than what I have been finding at the big box stores.. I'm not saying that these will turn you in to a professional or expert artist overnight, but they sure gave me the ability to paint special effects, and more realistic paintings, due to the multi-color pots of pigment. If I run out of these, I will absolutely restock! I'm one very happy customer. The only thing I would change, given the opportunity, would be a color indicator on the lid of each pot. I keep the color chart that comes with the paints in my paint box, so I can figure out exactly which color would work best for any given application.I would like to extend a warning to those who are new to powdered pigment. Wear a mask when dispensing the product. These, along with several other brands, are very fine powders, and become airborne quite readily. Recently I was mixing up a fair amount of red for a painting, and when finished, I noticed that my mask was covered in fine particles of the red paint. This may be non-toxic, but you don't want to breathe it in. I had used a box to contain my palette, and even after that precaution, I wiped up a fairly large circle of paint dust. So just be careful, and enjoy!

A little bit goes a long way so although it is expensive initially I don’t foresee it needing to be replaced for a long time. It takes practice to understand how it reacts with water, but that’s half the fun. It’s not totally predictable so it’s best used for “loose” painting.

A good variety of colours. Fun to use.

molto utili per aggiungere textures, effetti particolari ad acquerello.

Ich liebe einfach diese explodierenden Farbkristalle und die Farbtöne sind eine tolle Ergänzung zu dem anderen Brusho Set, was ich habe. Würde ich immer wieder kaufen! Man hat super viele Möglichkeiten, spass mit den Farben zu haben.

Brusho’s are great colours that I use in my grout amongst other crafts
