Vintage car and roses paint by numbers: the scene
This retro illustration puts a pale pink saloon at the centre, with round headlights, a chrome grille and whitewall tyres. Pink and red roses form a dense bush in front of the car, and skyscraper silhouettes rise behind it in beige and green. A light-coloured soft top closes the cabin. The style keeps to flat areas of pink, red, beige, green and white, with high detail in the petals and in the reflections on the grille. Portrait format follows the height of the buildings. The kit is classed as advanced, so expect to work slowly through the small numbered zones.

Tips for painting this design
Order matters on this vintage car and roses paint by numbers canvas. Start with the large flat areas: the pale pink body, the light soft top and the beige sky. Paint the skyscrapers in green and beige, then the foliage of the rose bush. Leave the petals until last and switch to the fine brush for short strokes. The chrome grille and the headlights take the closest attention because close whites and greys sit side by side. Choose 40x50 cm or 60x80 cm for this level of detail, and 36 colours if you want the pinks to blend.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 20x30 to 60x80 cm (9 sizes). You choose a kit of 24, 36 or 48 colours, on rolled canvas, with a wooden frame to assemble or with the canvas already mounted on its frame (except in 50x70 and 60x80 cm, delivered rolled). Allow around 20 to 40 h depending on the size.

Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this vintage car and roses canvas?
40x50 cm suits the level of detail in the petals and the grille, and 60x80 cm makes the skyscrapers and reflections easier to read if you paint often. 30x40 cm works as well, though the roses come out smaller. The kit is available in 9 sizes from 20x30 to 60x80 cm.
Are the roses and the chrome grille hard to paint?
The picture is classed as advanced because of the many fine details. The petals need the fine brush and short strokes, and the grille mixes close whites and greys, so paint it last one zone at a time and let each zone dry before you go back over it.
Who is this paint by numbers kit a good gift for?
For vintage car fans and anyone who likes retro city scenes. The portrait format sits well on a hallway wall, a shelf or a narrow bedroom wall. It also makes a gift for someone who has painted a few kits already, since the petals and the grille need a steady hand.
How do you paint by numbers?
Around 20 to 40 hours depending on the size. The 30x40 cm and 40x50 cm versions go faster, while 60x80 cm leaves more room for the petals and the grille reflections but takes longer. Three brushes are included, so you can move between the wide buildings and the fine headlights.
How do you thin acrylic paint?
The pots are ready to use. If the paint thickens, add a drop of water and mix. Paint the large flat areas first, then the skyscrapers, the foliage, and finish with the rose petals using a fine brush.
