Is this set enough to start painting?

It covers the primaries, so you can mix most hues, but you will want a white and an earth tone for practical work. Many buyers add a titanium white separately.

How does the Studio line compare to Vallejo's artist acrylics?

Studio acrylics are a more economical line with a thinner body and fewer pigments. Artist-grade lines offer higher pigment load and stronger coverage.

Are the colors opaque?

No. The set is described as transparent, so expect to layer colors for solid coverage. Opacity varies by color.

What size are the bottles?

Each of the six bottles holds 58 ml, for 348 ml total. They are squeeze bottles with flip or screw caps.

Can I use these on fabric or wood?

They are acrylics and bond to many porous surfaces, but they are formulated for studio painting on canvas and board. For fabric, use a textile medium.

When is the price lowest?

Art supply prices tend to dip during back-to-school and holiday sales. Check the price history on this page before buying.

The paint is a matte, transparent acrylic aimed at studio and larger-format work rather than fine detail. It is a budget-friendly way to try the Studio line before committing to larger bottles.
