And now for something completely different – odd kind of mind watercolour
I’ve received some Rembrandt tubes and was doing colour charts for reference. Some of the paints had excess paint upon opening so, in order to close them clean, I removed that extra paint and used it here…

Very cool. (Dropped jealous saliva) Where from you are ordering Rembrandt tubes? if you add to pans and let it dry work the same. Right?

Thank you Nikira. I’m ordering from http://www.Jacksonsart.com
They have moved from co.uk to com and gave additional 10% discount (code WELCOME10). I’ve bought some 25-30 5 ml tubes (including a st of 8) with a fine sable brush size 4. It may sound like I work in advertising for Talens but in my experience those paints are far fresher than others when poured from the tubes into pans (they set perfectly and re-wet as original pans). If you fill the whole pan you’d better leave it for couple of days before transporting them as they take awhile to harden. If you order from them you get 20% VAT deduction and 10% welcome10 and another 20% till October 4th – current action. You practically get them almost for FREE. Just check how much would shipment cost! Go for it and enjoy…

Sorry Niky, I was away on a trip. I’m happy you’ve found it.It’s a bargin and contains most of the series 3 colours… get it while it’s there it should have been over 30. It said 0 (zero) when I ordered it and they quickly changed it to 20 and I doubt that it would stay at that for long,,,
