grapefruit cocktails paint by number kit
two grapefruit cocktails in hard summer sunlight, with rosemary sprigs, orange slices and a scatter of baby's breath.
the brightest kit in the shop. the light is doing something lovely and slightly ridiculous, blowing the whites right out and throwing lilac shadows across the table, and all of that is in the numbering.

what you are taking on
- 24 colors across 893 pieces.
- the printable kit is 73 pages across 5 PDFs. the art prints 8 x 8 in, centred on a US Letter page. print at 100%, not fit-to-page.
- the iPad kit paints at 2400 x 2400 px, which is 8 x 8 in at 300 dpi.
- roughly 10.4 to 19.3 hours on a tablet, so a few evenings.
- 18 of those 893 pieces are smaller than a size-0 brush tip, so you will want your finest nib or a sharp pencil for those. I would rather tell you now.
the baby's breath is the fiddly part: 18 of the 893 pieces are smaller than a size-0 brush tip, so bring your finest nib.
the 24 colors in this kit
taken from this kit's own procreate palette. every one comes with its hex and RGB, and the swatch card matches each swatch to four popular marker and pencil brands:
| ohuhu honolulu | 22 of 24 colors have a close match |
|---|---|
| copic | 20 of 24 colors have a close match |
| prismacolor premier | 23 of 24 colors have a close match |
| faber-castell polychromos | 20 of 24 colors have a close match |
where nothing comes close, the card says so rather than pointing you at something wrong.

eighteen outlines to choose from
four darknesses, each one plain or numbered, with or without the color bar along the top. one way to use them: print the faintest plain one, and no lines or numbers show in your finished piece. the last two sit over a 1-inch grid so you can copy the design onto canvas by hand.
-
the swatch card
every color as a true 1-inch square with its hex and RGB, so you can swatch your own markers straight onto it. then a page naming the closest ohuhu, copic, prismacolor and polychromos for every single color.
-
the color-by-color guide
one page per color, that color alone on the page. wondering where every #12 hides? turn to page 12.
-
the build-up guide
the same one page per color, but each page shows the whole picture as it grows, with only the color that page adds numbered on it. no hunting for which shape is new.
-
the finished preview
in full color, plus a second copy with the numbers printed on the colors, so you can check yourself halfway through.

finished-art.png
what it looks like painted, to work from. it also sits at the bottom of your layers, and that is the bit that lets the outlines go as well as the numbers.

read-me.png
a one page setup guide with a picture of the layer stack, written for someone who has never opened procreate. every tap spelled out.

the honest bit
the tracing and the numbering are computer-assisted, by a program I wrote and keep fixing. then I check and finish every kit by hand. it is not a stock file and it is not a machine left alone with your photo.
