This picture intrigued me but I think this is the first I've heard of them:

They are very Matt, they require a lot of stirring, shaking is no good, they don't cover particularly well but the range of colours is good.,.

Mmmmm, not sure I agree with Green Tiger. Now I don't have the yellow set, but the others I have cover very well. I neither stir nor shake, just store them upside down, squeeze a very small amount out and thin with water.

How is the price in comparison to other brands?

Blues are excellent, as are the Reds and flesh tones….not used the yellows….

They dry to a nice nice matte finish, do tend to be thick, and in my opinion cover well. I toss a small stainless steel ball bearing in each bottle, and can get good results with a small amount of shaking. My primary paints are Reaper, but I use Andrea quite a bit as well. I recommend them.

I have used the Flesh, Blue and Gold sets with good results. Never had a problem though I do thin them with water most of the time. I have never used the yellow the sets used to cost around $22.00 USD, they give a nice matter finish.
