I've been using Lukas pan paints since 1994 when a local distributer put them all on sale. I find them brilliant and intense and all-around great! I don't really care for the half-pans, preferring the whole pan paints, which I put in a cheap joes white plastic palette. Glad others are finding out about these great paints! | ||

I ended up with the 48 pan LUKAS set accidentally, trying to place an online order. The box was so cute I kept them. This was the first pan set I had used in a long time.I used them to paint in final details on a full sheet detailed painting. I was really wowed by the handling, brilliance and clarity of the colors. The painting came out really nice. I just hope they hold up as well as the usual brands like Davinci, W&N, and Maimeribleu, DS etc. | ||

Actually, I had room for 4 additional pans after removing all the wrapping paper so I took 4 W&N 1/2 pans from a compact set and they fit the Lukas tin. W&N 1/2 pans are just a bit smaller, but they fit fine...if you used a lot of them you might want to use double-sided tape under the pans to hold them better. | ||

Another question. Are the Lukas pans the same size as the W&N ones? Could you replace some of the Lukas pigments as they run out with other brands, still using the same tin? | ||

I just bought the 48 half-pan set from ASW and it's really quite good! The colors have depth and brilliance and all in all, I'm quite satisfied. I have used W&N and Sennlier pans (as well as W&N, Holbein and Daniel Smith tube paints), and the Lukas pans measure up pretty well, especially for the price! The tin is nice, too. | ||

Hello all, Does anyone have any experience with LUKAS pan watercolors? The price seems right from several distributers and they sell whole pans in a nice tin. Denton |
