Not bad, but a real beginner needs more guidance.
My packaging was a bit different, but I assume it's the same information. For example, it didn't tell me anything about basic brush care.
I learned that by destroying a few brushes.
I don't believe it said anything about adding water to your paint once you've got a bit out of the bottle, which is one of the most basic practices of good painting. I only learned that by doing some research and reading advice from experienced painters.
This is a great kit to start learning with, it goes over everything with simple, easy to understand instructions. Keep in mind, these kits are in the process of an upgrade from the Reaper Pro Series of Paints to their Master Series. The paints included are the nearest approximations to what was originally in the packages and come with a list to show which is replacing which. Otherwise, its a good buy. My only complaint is that I don't think the warts on the rat should be so bloody, but to each his own, I guess.
