I found on Blick, that Van Gogh makes small tube sets of 10 tubes and 12 tubes (10ml tubes), and also one of 12 half-pans. All the sets have Chinese white, and Payne's Gray.  The set of 10 tubes are 22.19. The set of 12 is 31.05, BUT it comes with a plastic palette of sorts, 6 mixing areas, a sponge and a small brush (round nylon size 6). 

So a set of 10 plus the pro-art palette would run appx the same as the set of 12 in a plastic folding case.  The good brush would still be extra. 

I was processing that amount of paint that students might use... thanks to Lore, and wondered if it not be better to just have a paint set, rather than a squished set? 

Oh, Yarka. That was the brand of w/c paint set that the college sold in their bookstore, and those are DREADFUL, and that's the kindest remark I can make on them. 

If I have more sets than students, I could just return them to Blick. 

I guess I'll have to just buy a set and try them out. 

Still mulling.

Thanks
