Craft Smart Acrylic Paint Set Value Pack, 16 Colors – All-Purpose Paint Kit for Beginners and Professionals

Im so used to using Liquitex paints but because of the reviews I tried this because I liked the colors. I wasnt happy at all. These paints were a huge problem for me. Perhaps it was because I had already started a painting with Liquitex and wanted to finish with the Craft Smart colors. Ive mixed brands before without a problem. Both I and my adult daughter (a talented artist) was extremely disappointed. These paints went on transluscent-like for both of us. The Craft Smart just would NOT lay on top of existing (dry) paint - no matter how many layers of paint we used. After trying for hours to work with the Craft Smart product we both felt our paintings were ruined. We were both ready to toss these. After a few days we decided to not let Craft Smart paint get the better of us and ruin our rare mother/daughter time together (she lives 3 hours away). So we ended up going back to Liquitex and started our paintings all over. Fortunately Liquitex easily covered the mess from using Craft Smart, but we had both become so frustrated with that brand and being forced to start over that it wasnt as enjoyable any more. I ended up happy with how mine turned out but my daughter was extremely disappointed because she wasnt able to complete her vision. She would normally have taken great pains to perfect her masterpiece, but this time she just wanted to get it overwith. What a huge disappointment. Sorry Craft Smart, I wanted to give your product zero stars but decided that ... perhaps ... MAYBE ... if we had used ONLY Craft Smart paint it might be okay. Maybe. But Im definitely not ready to try.

I will say that the colors arent quite as vibrant as I would have liked, they seemed a bit more pastel or blue tinted than I thought theyd be, but Ive made them work regardless :)

Actually used these to paint on canvas fabric. Loved the ease of application.

I didnt like this bc I didnt get to try it it wasnt shipped to my house

I love these paints they are easy to use and also great for beginners

Price was great too

Absolutely love this paint. It’s easy to use the colors are amazing and they blend perfectly together to create something new. I have done paintings with much detail as well as crafts and painting with my daughter and I have no complaints.

Great paints and colors are beautiful and goes on nicely!

I WOULD ORDER THIS ITEM AGAIN WHEN I RUN OUT

These paints are very sheer and have little pigment. I wish they had more coverage. Would be okay for kids.
