Blue Baby Unicorn Paint by Numbers

Blue baby unicorn paint by numbers: what is on the canvas

The canvas shows the baby unicorn sitting on a pink cloud, with two twisted horns, a blue collar and eyes that fill much of the face. Those eyes set the expression of the finished picture, so save them for the fine brush. The curly mane falls in sky blue strands, and white gaps separate the pink clouds so the pastel tones stay distinct. A few small pink flowers sit along the edges, and the black outline stays visible on the pale areas. Cartoon style, portrait format, medium level of detail.

Tips for painting this design

Fill the pink cloud first with the wide brush and work from the outer edge inwards, which keeps the pastel pink even across the large areas. The sky blue body comes next, then the mane: each turquoise curl follows the numbers, and the medium brush keeps every strand inside its outline. Leave the white of the cloud and the eyes for the last session, with the fine brush, and run the black outline at the very end. For this level of detail, 30x40 cm or 40x50 cm stays comfortable, while 20x30 cm is tight for the curls. For a quicker first project, our easy paint by numbers designs keep to broad areas, and the full paint by numbers for kids & beginners range carries more cartoon subjects.

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 12 to 30 h depending on the size.
