kiwi slices paint by number kit

six slices of kiwi caught mid-air on a hot yellow background, with three blueberries falling past them.

the friendliest kit in the shop to start with: among the fewest colors, big clean shapes, and a background that is one confident block of yellow you can lay down in a couple of minutes.

the numbers, so you know before you buy

what you are taking on

  • 19 colors across 410 pieces.
  • the printable kit is 62 pages across 5 PDFs. the art prints 8 x 10 in, centred on a US Letter page. print at 100%, not fit-to-page.
  • the iPad kit paints at 2400 x 3000 px, which is 8 x 10 in at 300 dpi.
  • roughly 4.8 to 8.9 hours on a tablet, so an evening or two.
  • 8 of those 410 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.

19 colors is few enough to swatch in one sitting, and the greens do almost all the work.

the 19 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:

how many of this kit's colors have a close match in each marker or pencil set
ohuhu honolulu19 of 19 colors have a close match
copic17 of 19 colors have a close match
prismacolor premier17 of 19 colors have a close match
faber-castell polychromos14 of 19 colors have a close match

where nothing comes close, the card says so rather than pointing you at something wrong.

on paper

62 printable pages, 5 PDFs

  • 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.
