mast red colour tube
mera friend artist hai usne hi bola tha ye tube try karne ko. dost ki baat maan li aur ye cadmium red light wala manga liya. sach me pigment kaafi dense hai aur brush control bhi badhiya milta hai kyunki isme oxgall wagera nahi dala hai unhone. palette pe sukhta nahi jaldi aur brush lagate hi firse wet ho jata hai. work me maza aa gaya.

rich hue but careful with mixing
saw this tube online a few times and decided to finally order it for my studio work. the 15ml metal tube is quite creamy and has incredible tinting strength. it gives a very bright warm orange-red tone. only thing is it's quite opaque so you need to be mindful when layering glazes, but overall the archival permanence is solid.
