Two Tigers Tenderness Paint by Numbers: a realistic portrait to paint yourself
The tiger in the foreground licks the head of a second tiger set slightly back. Its pink tongue touches orange and white fur, and black stripes run around the muzzle, ears and shoulders. White whiskers stand out on the cheeks. The background is blurred in neutral grey and brown, so both heads hold the centre of the portrait canvas. If you like big cats, the lion paint by numbers and tiger kits include more realistic designs.
Tips for painting this design
This is an advanced kit with many fine details, and it takes around 20 to 40 h depending on the size. Start with the grey and brown background: these blurred areas fill quickly and set the outlines of both tigers. Next, paint the orange fur of the tiger in the foreground, following the direction of the hair to avoid streaks. Leave the whites of the muzzle, chin and whiskers until last and use the fine brush. The pink tongue needs only a light coat. Choose 40x50 cm or larger, because the fur and stripes need room. If you want finer shading in the orange and white fur, take the 36 or 48 colour option.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 15x15 to 70x80 cm (12 sizes). You choose a kit of 24, 36 or 48 colours, on rolled canvas, with or without a wooden frame to assemble. Allow around 20 to 40 h depending on the size.

Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this tiger picture?
We suggest 40x50 cm for the realistic fur and stripes. Below 30x40 cm, the white whiskers and muzzle areas become too small to fill comfortably. The 60x80 cm and 70x80 cm sizes suit patient painters who want a large portrait.
Is this design difficult to paint?
The level is advanced. The orange and white fur blends many shades, and the black stripes need clean outlines. Allow around 20 to 40 h depending on the size. Use the fine brush for the whiskers and the outline of the eyes.
Who is this paint by numbers kit a good gift for?
It suits anyone who likes wildlife, big cats or realistic pictures, as a gift or for yourself. The portrait format fits a living room or study wall. The kit includes the printed canvas, numbered pots and three brushes. For other species, see our animal paint by numbers.
Which colour should I start with in paint by numbers?
Begin with the grey and brown background, which fills quickly and defines both tigers. Then paint the orange fur of the tiger in the foreground, following the direction of the hair. Finish with the whites of the muzzle, chin and whiskers, using the fine brush.
How do you use a paint by numbers kit?
Each area of the canvas carries a number matching a numbered pot. The paper guide helps you check the numbers before you paint. Work from the background to the details: grey and brown first, then the orange fur, and a light coat for the pink tongue.
