I like the creaminess of Rosa paint made from the Ukraine.
I guess it depends truly on what you like but the Rosa paints are more opaque.

I now use Schmincke which is a very good paint but added Daniel Smith in my pallet so I’m equally happy with most of them.

I think it depends on what your painting if you want a more transparent look or more opaque.

I believe the paper is the more important.
