Dr Martin

[dougbennett]

I am wanting to do some watercolours but unsure what Dr Martin colours to buy?

Need advice or should i just buy the 12 pack of colour pack A

I guess there aren't a whole lot of watercolorists reading, Doug, mayhap it would be best to just go for the basic 12-pak and work from there? Anyhow. Hope you find whaat you're looking for.

There's a painting thread if you do a search, and a few people mention which watercolours they use if it helps

@dougbennett Many of the doc martin bottles I've bought I've been really happy with, olive green, blue aqua, ultramarine red violet are all awesome.. there's a pink in there I can't remember the name of, but most all of the colors are pigmented nicely.. the only ones I've had a bit of trouble with are the brown hues, like raw sienna, they tend to be a bit grittier, shaking the everloving shit out of them helps, but that would be my only gripe. I've only used the Hydrus series by the way
