iWhat does this level mean?
- Beginner: one large subject and big areas to paint, little detail. Ideal for a first canvas.
- Intermediate: several elements or colour gradients, with smaller areas. It takes a little more care and a fine brush in places.
- Advanced: a busy scene with many small areas and small faces to paint with a fine brush. For experienced painters, or with patience.
Tip: on a larger canvas the areas are bigger and easier to paint.
A Pikachu watercolour paint by numbers kit to paint area by area
Pikachu sits at the centre of the portrait canvas with a yellow body, red cheeks and black tipped ears. The lightning bolt tail stands out against a wash of yellow and beige. The design reproduces the splashes and patches of watercolour, with the outlines and numbers printed on the linen. It is a good pick if you want a Pokémon paint by numbers design with a softer, less graphic look. The large areas of the body fill in quickly. The cheeks, ears and edges of the tail ask for more precision.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the large yellow areas of the body and head, then the beige background. Leave the red cheeks, the black tips of the ears and the tail for the end, as they are the finest areas. For the splashes, use the fine brush with very little paint on the tip so the patches stay crisp. A 30x40 cm or 40x50 cm size suits the medium level of detail. Allow around 12 to 30 h depending on the size you choose.
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.

Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this watercolour Pikachu?
30x40 cm is a good compromise for medium detail. 40x50 cm makes the splashes easier to read. 20x30 cm is still possible if you want a small, quick picture.
Are the splashes difficult to paint?
They need the fine brush and a steady hand. The outlines printed on the canvas guide each patch. Allow one to two hours more than for the solid areas of the body.
Who is this Pikachu watercolour paint by numbers kit for?
For a Pokémon fan who enjoys painting, child or adult. The theme appeals to players, and the watercolour finish suits those looking for a less formal picture.
How do I use the paint by numbers kit?
Paint the areas according to the numbers on the canvas. Start with the large yellow areas of the body and head, then the beige background. Keep the red cheeks, the black tips of the ears and the tail for the end. The paper chart helps you check the numbers of the areas.
How do I thin acrylic paint?
The pots are ready to use. For the splashes, take the fine brush with little paint on the tip. If the paint seems thick, add a drop of water and mix. Keep the red cheeks and the tail for the end.
