Ipaint Basic Guide 5: Draw, Color, and Showcase | Paint by Numbers

Intro

With your Ipaint parameters set and outline previewed (Ipaint Basic Guide 4), it’s time to bring your paint-by-numbers artwork to life! This guide covers drawing the outline and coloring your masterpiece using the LOKLiK app and Ipaint machine.

Step 1: Drawing the Outline

In the LOKLiK app, click the Start button to begin drawing the paint-by-numbers outline. Monitor the progress bar in the app to track the drawing progress and estimated completion time. While the machine works, you can prepare your paints or take a moment to grab a coffee to boost your focus.

Step 2: Coloring

Once the outline is complete, use the Acrylic Paint Kit with numbered bottle caps. Match the numbers on the canvas to the corresponding paint colors and fill in each section. After coloring, use a hairdryer to gently heat the canvas, erasing the heat-erasable pen’s outline for a clean, polished look.
