Derwent Metallic Paint Pan Set
Silver, Graphite, Gold, Pale Gold, Sunset, Red, Pink, Purple, Blue, Ice Blue, Lime Gold and Green
Includes a mini waterbrush and a mixing palette, this kit is great for taking on the go! The Derwent Metallic Paint Pan Set includes 12 unique shades that mix beautifully to create a full spectrum of metallic colour. Extra fine metallic pigments give a reflective glint, maintaining their shimmer once dry. Apply in creamy opaque strokes, or as a light wash to create a translucent effect. Opaque applications can be achieved by layering, when the paint is wet or dry, or by applying in thicker coats.

Top Tip From Chris
ScrawlrBox Founder
Try them dry!
They can be taken out of the pan and used as stumpy crayons to add subtle texture. Note: they are much harder to remove from the pan once you have activated them.
Top Tip From Kat
ScrawlrBox Creative Designer
Warm Water
Wake them up by using warm water. Metallic pigments are heavier and ten to have a delayed activation, so a few drops of warm (not hot!) water on the pans for 30–60 seconds gives you richer, creamier colour straight away.
