This collection offers a practical entry point or supplement to an existing palette, with a choice of three different colour counts and two tube sizes. Selecting the right set depends on your project scope: a compact 12-colour set for basics, an expanded 18-colour set for greater range, or a comprehensive 24-colour set for maximum versatility, each with the option of standard 5ml tubes or larger 12ml tubes for the 12-colour variant.\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures and Construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Set of gouache paint tubes in 12, 18, or 24 colours with 5ml or 12ml sizes\" src=\"https:\/\/images.seoo.uk\/src\/products\/shopify_export\/US14\/920\/2025-09-28\/original-image\/2667834412542.webp\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\nThe core feature of these sets is the choice they provide, allowing you to match the product to your specific painting needs and frequency. Each set contains individual tubes of gouache, a water-based paint known for its opaque, flat finish when dry.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMaterial and Build\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nThe paint is formulated with gouache pigment, which distinguishes it from watercolour by its higher pigment density and lack of transparency. This composition allows for solid areas of colour and the ability to paint light colours over dark ones. The paint is housed in standard collapsible metal tubes, which help preserve the paint by minimising air exposure once opened and resealed.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSize and Practical Fit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nThe practical difference between the sets lies in the tube volume and colour count. The 5ml tube is a common studio size, suitable for regular use across many projects or for trying a new colour without a large commitment. The 12ml tube, available in the 7312L set, offers more paint volume, which can be more economical for frequently used primary colours or for painters who work on larger surfaces. The sets are designed to be stored flat in a drawer or stored upright in a cup.\n\n\u003ch2\u003eUses and Placement\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Set of gouache paint tubes in 12, 18, or 24 colours with 5ml or 12ml sizes\" src=\"https:\/\/images.seoo.uk\/src\/products\/shopify_export\/US14\/920\/2025-09-28\/original-image\/3345042734241.webp\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\nGouache is a versatile medium with applications in both professional and recreational settings. Its quick-drying nature and matte finish make it suitable for a variety of techniques and final presentations.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eEvent or Professional Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nFor professionals such as illustrators, storyboard artists, and designers, gouache is valued for its scan-friendly matte finish and bright, reproducible colours. A 24-colour set provides a broad spectrum for commercial illustration work, while the 12ml tube option is practical for maintaining stock of key colours used daily in a studio. The opacity of gouache makes it ideal for creating artwork for reproduction in print or digital media.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eEveryday Home Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nFor hobbyists, students, and crafters, these gouache sets offer an accessible way to explore painting. The 12-colour set with 5ml tubes is a sensible start for beginners learning colour mixing, while the 18-colour set reduces the need for mixing to achieve specific hues. Gouache is excellent for sketchbook work, greeting card design, and mixed-media art projects at home, as it cleans up easily with water.\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBenefits and Buying Value\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Set of gouache paint tubes in 12, 18, or 24 colours with 5ml or 12ml sizes\" src=\"https:\/\/images.seoo.uk\/src\/products\/shopify_export\/US14\/920\/2025-09-28\/original-image\/518343124344.webp\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\nThe value of these sets is in their configuration options, allowing you to select based on your known usage rather than a one-size-fits-all solution. The choice between palette size and tube volume provides a tailored approach to buying art materials.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eReuse and Low Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nGouache is a reusable medium; dried paint on a palette can be reactivated with water, reducing waste. The tube packaging itself is efficient, as you use one colour at a time and seal the rest, keeping the other paints fresh. With basic care—keeping lids tightly closed and storing in a cool, dry place—these paints can remain usable for an extended period.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose This Product\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nYou would choose this gouache paint set if you need a straightforward selection of a proven water-based opaque paint. The clear options (12, 18, or 24 colours in 5ml tubes, or 12 colours in 12ml tubes) let you decide based on your project needs and paint consumption. The specific product codes (7612, 7618, 7624, 7312L) ensure you receive the exact configuration ordered, making repeat purchases simple.\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Set of gouache paint tubes in 12, 18, or 24 colours with 5ml or 12ml sizes\" src=\"https:\/\/images.seoo.uk\/src\/products\/shopify_export\/US14\/920\/2025-09-28\/original-image\/8316089254795.webp\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"test555ywsrbr0lph","offers":[{"title":"18colors5ml","offer_id":55027480592713,"sku":"CJJSBGBG01096-18colors5ml","price":25.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"24colors5ml","offer_id":55027480625481,"sku":"CJJSBGBG01096-24colors5ml","price":26.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"12colors5ml","offer_id":55027480658249,"sku":"CJJSBGBG01096-12colors5ml","price":25.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"12colors12ml","offer_id":55027480691017,"sku":"CJJSBGBG01096-12colors12ml","price":27.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1024\/1828\/4873\/files\/3345042734241.webp?v=1786322394","url":"https:\/\/zenithtrove.co.uk\/products\/gouache-paint-set-available-in-12-colours-18-colours-or-24-colours-with-tubes-in-either-5ml-or-12ml-sizes-for-art-illustration-and-hobby-painting-projects","provider":"ZenithTrove.co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
