The Brushos are also available from Dick Blick art supplies, and they do sell the individual pots.  And I don't know if I got my set during a sale or if the price has jumped but the 24 pot set I bought is now about twice what I paid for it.

I've been having a lot of fun playing with them. I've got a bunch of projects in the works using them.  Including one where I used a metallic spray.

I've enjoyed reading through this thread, I watched some of the videos, and saved others to watch later.

Here's a video where Dina Kowal shows how she re-packaged some of her powdered colors.  Maybe this will work even in Florida.

Sorry, the Amazon price has been updated-

Just wanted to share what appears to be a better price on the basic 8 brusho crystal set through an Amazon vendor. This basic introductory set includes Yellow Ochre, Rose Red, Lime Green, Olive Green, Moss Green, Sandstone, Terracotta, and Burnt Sienna in 15 g pots, plus an instructional leaflet.

From Amazon Vendor: Brusho Crystal Colour Set- 8 x 15g pots - Autumnal Colours   Price I see the price today 9/7 is now $ 38.98 $21.11 with free shipping. 

From Dick Blick: Brusho Crystal Colours 
01762-1008 Assorted Set of 8 –posting includes a few photos of colors.   Blick price $35.99 +$4.99 contiguous US shipping

Note: Sorry  I don't have time to check other vendors.  I would ask any interested folks here to do your own research and if you find a difference in what these vendors are offering please share.  Also note any US state taxes will apply.

Thanks for sharing those new colors, Jan! I really love the ultramarine blue and that orange. The more I see of these, the more I want to try them out!
I saw this today on my YouTube feed and thought you all might be interested.
I plan to watch the videos later tonight . Lots of good info. Here's the blog post and the videos are linked in it.

I have only watched the first video so far, but I really like it.  It looks like maybe the more vibrant colors of the colorburst are the ones that I would like the best.  Thanks for the link!
