KomkingPaint by Numbers for Adults, DIY Painting Paint by Numbers Kits on Canvas, Colourful Balloon 41cm x 50cm

I didn't know what to expect but wanted something to do with my spare time and chose this, based on reviews. Honestly it was much better than I thought it was going to be. Quality wise it was clearly printed out, its on a canvas which if you can frame will pull out the folds, the numbers are clear, if small in some places. I recommend a magnifying glass in some places. The paint is acrylic and goes on smoothly. and in some places needs a couple of layers but, I did my whole picture in a few days with lots of paint left over. You get 3 brushes one for detailing the other for the larger area and one for everything else. I am a beginner in painting so it was great for me.

Painting by numbers is something I do to relax. This picture was the first dark toned picture I have done and it came out the best! I am now hooked on doing darker pictures. Plenty of paint for each number and 3 pots of black to do the grey areas was plenty - I had more than enough to do black right up to edge of the canvas all around the picture. I highly recommend this picture, it was a very satisfying result.

This caught my eye and i thought why not, haven't painted for a while so thought i would give paint by numbers a try. This is it, not completely finished but nearly there. You get lots of colours, just the right amounts. Only quibble is paintbrushes, they are okay and do the job but not perfect. Would purchase separate brushes next time

I wish the suppliers of these things would listen to feedback. I have bought a few PBNs from various suppliers and almost every one has the same issues. Most common is the way the canvas is folding, this particular canvas was so badly creased that it was almost holed! Ironing made no difference. The second issue is the inconsistency of the acrylic paint, some are viscous and needs water adding, others are OK and some needs several coats to even cover the numbers. This one has all three and it's bloody annoying and takes much of the pleasure out of the painting process. I have managed to get round the problems as I am doing this one as a present but next time, back it goes...

This numbers and outline are printed on a nice weight canvas. The paints are all labelled well. The paint brushes are good quality two thin and a thick Ker one for larger areas. The picture is like the house in up. As you can see I have only just started painting the canvas but it is easy to follow and relaxing to do. Some of the numbers are quite small so you may need a magnifying glass or there is a paper print that is clear but again numbers are quite small. Looking forward to completing this. Great product at a good price.
