Unnesecessarily Long Review of Shihan PWC Watercolors

This is a long one, timestamps are below!
Today we are reviewing the Shinham PWC (these are the top-of-the-line watercolor paints from Shinhan, not to be confused with the professional line that is really a high-end student quality paint) You can find them here:
32 color set on amazon: https://amzn.to/3If3uLn
24 color set on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3T7l6MA
12 pastel tint set on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3AvyS3p
Sets and single tubes on Blick: https://shrsl.com/3o0it

TLDR: I love these and they are a fantastic bargain!
The palettes I used cn be found here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/Shawns3DPrints

Pros (of the 32 set)
Price/value
High pigment load
Very transparent
Glazes well
Easy to work with
Clean color that mixes well
I am grateful that the 32 set I reviewed does not contain black or white
Comes with a really informative brochure about the paint range

Cons: (of the 32 set)
Color selection: there are two similar PB15 blues and 2 similar pthalo-based greens.
Fugitive colors: 2 reds that contain PR83 (fugitive color) as well as Opera, also the PG8 sap green that is beautiful may be fugitive. I'm not sure all of the pigment documentation is correct tho as a few colors do not look like the assigned pigments to my eye.

Bottom line:
I like this paint. Even with the caveats, I think they are worth the money.
