iCoostor Paint by Numbers DIY Acrylic Painting Kit for Kids & Adults Beginner– 16” x 20”Life Tree Pattern

I love the finished product but it took some problem solving to get it finished. I would give this product a 5 star rating if it hasn't caused me so much trouble to get it done. You will see from my posted photos that the painting came out great in the end but if you look at the "map" of the painting showing where all the colors should be going along with the picture of the paint container with no number on it, you'll see that I had MANY grayed out areas that looked to me as a beginner that they were supposed to be left gray or why else would they have been there with no colored number in the areas. But when I was finished it was clear that those gray areas were ugly and not supposed to be there. It wasn't until I was able to totally zoom in on the areas on the sample picture and the finished product posted by another buyer that I could try to figure out what colors should be in the grayed in areas. Then I noticed that there was one paint compartment with NO number on it at all and it was never used. FINALLY I realized that the unnumbered paint was the color that was supposed to be painted in on all the gray spaces. I wasn't 100% sure about that but was so close to finishing the project that I wasn't going to give up! I used the unnumbered paint color in all the gray spaces and that made it all come together and I'm VERY SATISFIED, NOW, with the finished product!!!!! I would have liked to have been able to pull up a copy of the "map" of colors but tried contacting the company and all they did was send me a picture that another customer posted rather than sending a copy of the map of colors which could have confirmed for me what should have gone in those gray areas.

This was my first paint by number, and I just finished mine today. (My finished result is posted here with my comment) Paints are vibrant, and without an odor. Easy to work with and they dry quickly. I suggest laying the canvas flat day or two before painting. (The canvas is shipped folded up). The brushes that come with this set are adequate, but I purchased a set of detailing brushes which worked well for the smaller areas. Highly recommend this project!

Love this painting ! It’s beautiful, clear, the paint quality is awesome, the canvas quality is awesome.The creasing from the folded canvas does naturally begin to flatten out as you paint and leave the canvas out to dry so getting it perfectly flat with an iron before painting isn’t really necessary.The only negative is the paint brushes that come with this kit are pretty cheap and don’t last long at all so I would highly recommend purchasing another set of detail paint brushes for this canvas.

I was going great with this for a while. I took a break for a period of time and the paints were still fine to use. The day after I returned to painting they dried though. Wednesday I could paint despite time passing, Thursday I could not. I tried adding water, but the way it dried is almost tacky and waxy, not hard and the water will not mix, it just collects on top. I'm very sad and disappointed. Had they been dry originally I would have understood it to be my fault, but the fact that they were fine one day and dry the next shows it is not.

Watery paint, cheap brushes; I feel I wasted my 💰. I'm sticking with Banlana from now on.

True to the photo, paints match . Canvas was a little wrinkled but a little ironing got them out. numbers were Very visible . The painting turned out beautiful!

Haven't had a chance to paint much but so far am enjoying. Some colours need more than one layer to cover numbers. Numbers easier to follow. Only complaint is that a small corner of the painting was already painted when received and one paintbrush was missing. Wasn't worth the hassle of sending back as only a small portion which I redid but not great to get an item already partially done.

I bought this for my child to keep her busy over the Christmas break time and I was very happy because my child was very happy. I do not have many painting knowledge but because made my child happy I am very happy and did not cost a fortune. It kept her busy for 1 week and the final product look amazing.

Great paint by numbers, first one I've ever finished such a great image. To start I didn't use very much paint as I was worried I'd run out but there is more than enough of each colour, so go for it and enjoy!

EDIT the final painting doesn't look like the pic on here I think the numbers and colours were wrongCame folded up in a small box , far too many creases , hoping some will come out with the iron but not got much hope , won't but again

Lovely Christmas gift for my mum who loves painting
