It feels criminal to squeeze out so much. And the cheap kits mean buying a bunch of colours I don’t use.

Canvas is also going to add up so paper sketch pads might be worth trying

use all the colours just to get brush skills , sketch pads from daiso are a definite option

right now I'm using a so so quality burnt sienna ink, it good enough for practice
