A dinosaur watering hole paint by numbers picture
This paint by numbers for adults shows a large herbivore leaning towards a pool, surrounded by ferns and small dinosaurs. The twilight sky shifts from orange to blue grey, and a meteor crosses the upper part of the canvas. The reflections in the watering hole mix green and blue, with brown areas along the banks. The prehistoric scene fills the whole square frame. Each area carries a number that matches a paint pot. The kit contains the printed linen canvas, the acrylic paint pots, three brushes and the paper reference sheet. Working time runs from 20 to 40 h depending on the size you choose.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the orange and grey sky, then the meteor, so you do not rest your hand on the pale areas. Next paint the watering hole and its reflections: the transitions between green and blue need a fine brush and light passes. Save the large dinosaur for the end, as its scales and brown shadows cover many small areas. A 40x50 cm size or larger leaves enough room for the ferns and the small dinosaurs.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 15x15 to 70x80 cm (12 sizes). You choose a 24, 36 or 48 colour kit, on rolled canvas, with or without a wooden frame to assemble. Allow around 20 to 40 h depending on the size.
What the kit contains
Canvas:The printed linen canvas carries the outlines and numbers of the large herbivore and the small dinosaurs at the watering hole.
Paint:The acrylic paint pots cover the green of the ferns, the blue of the watering hole, the orange of the sky and the brown of the dinosaur.
Brushes:The wide brush covers the twilight sky and the watering hole, the fine one is for the outlines of the small dinosaurs.
Guide:The paper reference sheet lets you check the numbers for the prehistoric ferns and the reflections on the water.
Optional:The wooden frame to assemble stretches the prehistoric landscape canvas, otherwise it arrives rolled in a tube.
Without frame
The canvas arrives rolled in a tube. You paint it flat and frame it afterwards if you wish.
With frame
Wooden stretcher bars to assemble stretch the canvas. You paint on a taut surface and hang the picture on the wall.
Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this dinosaur picture?
40x50 cm works well for keeping the detail of the ferns and the small dinosaurs. 30x40 cm is still possible for a first kit, but the sky and water areas will be smaller to fill.
Are the meteor and the reflections difficult to paint?
The meteor and the reflections on the water need precision. Use the fine brush and follow the paper reference sheet for the outlines. The rest of the picture is filled with the medium and wide brushes.
Who is this dinosaur paint by numbers kit for?
The design suits an adult or teenager who likes dinosaurs and prehistoric landscapes. The complete kit is ready to give as it is, with the canvas, the numbered paint pots and the three brushes.
How do you use a paint by numbers kit?
Open the numbered paint pots and paint the matching areas on the printed canvas. The paper reference sheet lets you check the numbers. Start with the orange and grey sky, then the meteor, then the watering hole and its reflections with the fine brush, and save the large dinosaur for the end.
Is paint by numbers difficult?
The work takes patience, around 20 to 40 h depending on the size. The transitions between green and blue in the watering hole call for a fine brush and light passes. The scales and brown shadows of the large dinosaur cover many small areas. A 40x50 cm size or larger leaves enough room for the details.
