HIMI Gouache/Watercolor Paint Brushes Set 5 Pcs

I am a professional artist and bought these just for fun, and to have a little set when I want to paint outside. Totally surprised at the quality for the price. Someone mentioned that the white bristles stain after using them. All white bristles that I have ever used do, no matter what kind of paint you are using. So I don’t see that as a flaw. I have only used them for gouache but I am curious to see how they would do with other mediums. I would totally recommend these to a friend, and would buy again.

These are okay for watercolor but not gouache. Leaves the painting looking too streaky

I tested these out with my watercolors and really liked them. The felt comfortable to hold and were easy to clean with minimal staining. I really enjoyed how the looked in my art supply kit as well since they are a great color. I would say they are on par with most of nicer brushes actually. I liked them so much I bought another set in another color so I could have one at home and one in my to go kit. I think they are a great buy and really functional and would make a great gift as they are also packaged nicely. Would highly recommend these.

Adorable quality brush set with soft bristles and good construction. Bristles do not seem to shed easily, really happy with these cute brushes! The soft pink set is both pretty and functional. Will definitely order more in the future!Using for a gouache painting currently but would work for wider range of paints. Using as a professional level artist. Great price point for all levels!

The yellow handle watercolor brushes are actually a really nice synthetic set. The brushes hold a lot of water and they maintain a really sharp point. The largest brush is my favorite in this set due to how easy it is to apply washes with. Because the bristles are white, they will stain but won’t affect the quality of the product.I would suggest these for beginners or for professionals that need a set of back up synthetic brushes.

Pros-Enough long with good weightDurable bristlesPerfect for gouache and acrylicVery easy to get sharp edges and clean strokesConsNot a con in real but i wont prefer for watercolors. They need more softer brushes. I intend to used them for gouachePacking is very attractive but i would prefer a more environment friendly and sustainable packaging.

These brushes are so aesthetically pleasing to look at and a dream to work with. I love the bristle shape and cleaning and using them is a cinch. The white fibers do seem to stain with colors, but that’s a given. There weren’t even any stray fibers to clean away from manufacturing! Sooo happy with this purchase!

These are super smooth and I love the color and packaging. The white bristles will stain - but that would happen to any white bristles. So far they have held up and no dropped bristles. Great value for the price.

Beautiful packaging in fact the prettiest I have seen for art supplies.I purchased 2 sets to use with my Himi Gouache kit and watercolors.I will post photos soon so you can see the size and quality for yourself. They feel nice and look so good!

these brushes feel nice and smooth, but one thing that caught me off guard were how stiff they were. now, all brushes are stiff at first, but these were almost rock hard. some bits of brush are still firm after working with them, but slowly getting softer. i can tell these brushes will retain their shape for a long time, and you get a decent variety of sizes. liner brush could be smaller though, it's a size 5. when i think of a liner brush i think of a 4 or even a 3, so it's a little clunky for my taste.
