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.

Tip: on a larger canvas the areas are bigger and easier to paint.
Squirtle paint by numbers kit: a watercolour portrait to paint at home
Squirtle sits in the centre of the canvas, with its winged ears and plume-like tail. The wash-inspired finish comes from blue, brown and grey splashes around the character on a clean white background. The brown shell stands out against the beige plastron and the sky-blue skin. Each numbered area matches one acrylic shade, so you apply the colour straight onto the linen.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the light blue body and the beige plastron to fix the main silhouette. Paint the brown shell next, then the shadows on the tail. Leave the small paint splashes around the design until last. The areas are medium in size with some fine details, which is why the level is intermediate. Allow around 12 to 30 hours depending on the size you choose. For crisp droplets and facial details, pick 40x50 cm with the 36 or 48 colour palette. If you like this theme, our Pokémon paint by numbers range has more characters to paint.

Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this Squirtle design?
We suggest 40x50 cm: it gives enough room for the watercolour splashes and the narrow areas without crowding them. For a sideboard or a shelf, 30x40 cm also works well. The range runs from 15x15 cm to 70x80 cm in 12 sizes.
Is this design difficult to paint for a beginner?
The level is intermediate. The flat areas on Squirtle's body are simple to fill. Only the surrounding patches and the fine details call for the fine brush included in the kit. A 24 colour option keeps the palette shorter.
Who is this Pokémon paint by numbers picture a good gift for?
It suits Pokémon fans and anyone who likes watercolour-style animal illustrations. The blue and white palette fits easily into a bedroom, a playroom or a study.
Which colour should I start with in paint by numbers?
For this watercolour Squirtle, start with the light blue body and beige plastron to fix the silhouette. Then paint the brown shell and the shadows on the tail. Finish with the blue paint splashes. The paper guide helps you check the numbers for each area.
