4.0 out of 5 stars Good but small
I didn't have a problem with the printing I thought that was fine but the paintings are only about 4"x6" while I was expecting about 12"x20".

2.0 out of 5 stars printing on canvas boards pale
This would be a great paint by number kit if one could see the outlines of the picture on each board. It is so light you can hardly see the picture and the numbers for painting the masterpieces are completely unreadable. If anyone else has run across this please let Amazon know so they can fix this problem as I love paint by number kits.
I have run across this same...

I have run across this same problem with the Workman paint by number calendars also and quit buying them.
I will have to send this kit back as it is unusable.

1.0 out of 5 stars Just awful!, September 14, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Paint By Number Kit: Everything You Need to Re-Create 8 Vintage Masterpieces (Paperback)
If you are thinking of buying this, please don't! Half the paints in the kit I received are dried up; which sucks, because most of the pictures require you to mix colors together. I started painting the clown face and went to open another paint pot and found it all dried out and then another. I should have listened to the other reviewer on this product and not purchased it....and the pictures are VERY tiny and VERY hard to see.....completely disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Small Portraits But Great Quality, October 7, 2007

This is a very cute kit with a good variety of subjects from the Eiffel tower to a rocket in space. The guide included was great at showing what colors are needed for each portrait and what colors you will need to mix. I do think that the quality of the brush could be better and the portraits were a bit smaller than I would have liked. I had to squint quite a lot for some pictures to make sure the right paint got in the right spot but I really had fun with this kit and would buy it again.

1.0 out of 5 stars good pictures, but unusable., September 4, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Paint By Number Kit: Everything You Need to Re-Create 8 Vintage Masterpieces (Paperback)
The paints were all dried out and not able to be used. The pictures are incredibly small, and the lines are way to faint. I think you pay for the book of the history of paint-by-numbers, which frankly, I could care less about. I am writing a not to the company, and am very unsatisfied with this product.

I rather enjoyed this kit. I liked that I had so many projects and they didn't take too long to do. My only concern is that some of the colors did not mix up like they were supposed to so the finished product was shaded differently.

2.0 out of 5 stars Paint boards TOO small, June 26, 2010
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Paint By Number Kit: Everything You Need to Re-Create 8 Vintage Masterpieces (Paperback)
I bought this for my 12 year old daughter (who does a lot of paint by numbers). She didn't like this kit because of the size of the paintings.

The actual paintings are about 5x7 card size. They are REALLY small. There is no way they can expect you to paint this in a tiny dot so small.

It is more advanced (in my opinion) in that you are supposed to use their drawing as guidelines and paint over it how you want. You will never be able to fill in the little sections.

1.0 out of 5 stars Unusable - paints dried up, lines too thin. Very poor quality, December 26, 2009
This review is from: Paint By Number Kit: Everything You Need to Re-Create 8 Vintage Masterpieces (Paperback)
This was what my daughter, a paint by number fanatic, requested from Santa. We can't return it to the North Pole, and my daughter is quite upset about the quality of this product. The paints were completely dried up, and you literally need a magnifying glass to read see the lines and read the numbers. The paint brushes are too thin to fit between the lines. I'm not sure why Santa didn't read these reviews (our experience is exactly the same), because I'm sure he would have brought her something else. The $3.40 one from target is much higher quality!

1.0 out of 5 stars Paint by number sadness, August 21, 2007
This review is from: Paint By Number Kit: Everything You Need to Re-Create 8 Vintage Masterpieces (Paperback)
Much to my chagrin, I had to return this item as I could not possibly see the numbers to know what colors to use. I was devasted.
