It’s okay
I bought this set hoping to be able to achieve amazing pour results with lots of cells like I have seen in many videos. The kit included is good for a beginner like me, cups & paints & stirrers & silicone oil... but quite disappointed that there is not one scrap of instruction or tips for getting started in the box. I wasted a lot of paint trying to figure out how much silicone to add to the paint, still haven’t sussed it.
Overall this is a good beginners set and will get you on the road but don’t rely on the kit to give you any help in getting to your destination.

Fascinating.
I normally use an airbrush or do paintings with gouache and brushes. However, I chanced upon an acrylic pouring video and thought I would give it a whirl. I bought these ready mixed paints and a couple of canvases. I would suggest to anybody using these, to do it in a large shallow box and cover everything close by in newspaper! In the box are most things that you could reasonably need to get started, including some canvas boards: silicon oil, plastic palette knives etc. There are dozens of YouTube videos to watch on pouring, but my main interest was in getting “cells”, which means that some silicon oil needs to be mixed in with the paints. I found that adding a little water to my paints gave a better result. If you don’t like the results, you can just wait for it to dry, then do another pour over the top (apparently you can do this up to four times). I am not sure that it is “art” in the conventional sense, but it is lots of fun and the results look fantastic.

Good fun but no instructions
Works well once you watch a million YouTube videos of how to do it, zero instructions makes the whole thing rather difficult when you have to guess what you’re doing but overall a very fun activity.

Dutch Pouring for beginners
This Kit is fabulous for beginners to acrylic paints or Dutch pouring technique. I am currently medically retired due to chronic illness and I’m regularly trying to find new creative things to try alongside my photography and my academia. These paints appealed to me after seeing a tik tok of a young woman Dutch pouring, after some investigation I found this kit was perfect for all my needs to attempt a first, second and third iteration of this to at least have some positive results.
The paints are beautiful even in a digital image and they don’t change physically either. The kit is easy to use and contains everything needed to start, I purchased three canvases simply because I knew my first and second attempt may leave questionable results. But attempt #1 turned out beautifully (is it perfect no, but it’s my personal art)
Hobby craft is my go to store for all my creative needs, and I’ve recently discovered online classes too which is perfect for the introverts of us with ASD to learn without the crowd or anxiety.
I wholeheartedly recommend Hobbycraft and all the creative supplies they offer (I may have a small addiction but it’s worth it).
If you want a new project i cannot recommend this kit enough, not simply for Dutch pouring but for countless ways you could utilise it and create your own perfect master piece.

Good Kit
The kit is good with everything you need for pouring art, but there are no instructions and there isn't enough paint included for more than the canvus' in the kit. Good starter kit but will have to buy more paint.

Lovely colourful set
This is a great set with a good variety of colours. It has everything you need to get started, EXCEPT instructions.
As a gift this spoiled the fun somewhat.
This omission is the reason it got 4 stars, not 5

Great pack
Excellent kit containing everything you need.
I love painting with acrylic paint and really wanted to try the pouring technique.
I think for pouring purposes the paint is still a little too thick but the picture I ended up making was great and I'm really happy with the result.
I will be purchasing another canvas soon and will try thinning out the paint a little more and see if this helps.
Great for beginners.
