Decidedly modern, XL Studio Oil Color from Pebeo has been developed to fulfill the needs of contemporary expression.
These colors mix easily and quickly, and their fast drying time allows artists to add new coats after only three days, perfect for glazes and impastos. They're also great for acrylic artists who want to try oil paints without the odor.
The Pebeo XL palette includes both modern and classic fine art colors.
Primary Colors, Set of 5 — This set contains 5 colors in 37 ml (1.25 oz) tubes, including one each of Primary Cadmium Yellow Imitation, Magenta, Primary Phthalo Blue, Ivory Black Imitation, and Titanium White.
I would say that this paint is the most affordable oils I have ever seen. There may be trade offs because of this, but I can't tell what those would be.
The viscosity varies from color to color as does the drying rate. I could live with these things very easily.
I recommend these oils to anyone who is price conscious and who likes good quality paints.

Comments about Pebeo XL Studio Oil Colors:
I was amazed as to the density of these colors. In the past I have purchased paint which were weak, but not XL.
I'll be back!

Comments about Pebeo XL Studio Oil Colors:
Most colors cover well and is smooth, blends well. While advertised as faster than normal drying, I find it takes about twice as long to dry. I continue to use these colors because of the smoothness and because it allows for excellent layering.
