  • In this video, I start and finish a paint-by-number kit called Eagle Hunter by Dimensions Paint Works. This is only my 3rd paint by number so there will be some chatting about the process mixed with some time lapse footage. Enjoy!
    I purchase most of my paint by numbers locally or on Amazon.

    I just finished this one! Such a great image. You did an excellent job! If you want to get rid of the warping, LIGHTLY mist the painted side of the board with water. You'll see it slowly bend itself straight again!

    Small tip I have learned when I used to do paint by numbers is how to put shading in the water and trees.. If you're still doing paint by numbers try to add water on the brush before dipping it in the paint it helps make the water and the trees look more real like.

    I think your dry brushing looks great! Yes, with the gel pen, mine comes out a bit thick so i use a cocktail stick to spread it out a bit. The paint can cause it to lift if there is too much water either in the paint or in the gel pen (not dry). Perhaps I'll do a video of what I mean if I can position a camera correctly.

    I’m about to start painting again. I haven’t painted since my teen years. My dad taught me but he died when I was 14. I do all kinds of crafts but PBN it’s been long time. The last painting I did was Pinkie and Blue Boy and they were huge. I’m starting again after 45 years. Your blending technique is beautiful. It’s one area I never liked about PBN as it looks odd with hard lines but your blending is giving me courage to start. Thx

      This one is probably my most sentimental because the day I was going to finish it up my dog “Luke” unexpectedly passed away that morning so I dedicated that painting to him. Instead of TallyHo Farms I painted “Luke Farms EST. 2016” He was only 5. I have it setting on the table with his cremation box, collar, paw print & food dish plus his favorite toy. That was his memorial. If I could post photos I would show you that painting and the others I’ve done.

I am so glad I had the positive experience though. I will try again at some point. The first was something like 10x12 and it was a hard material.

Could you just buy acrylic paint so it covers the numbers well? Might sound like a silly question, but how do you know what shade colors to buy? My biggest fear is running out of paint.
