Due to the great subject, I bought this paint-by-numbers of mammoth. Paint-by-numbers for me for years a nice pastime. The colors mitliefert the company Mammut, are not exactly brilliant: they cover partially miserable. The amount of color is but sufficient when dealing fairly frugal with the colors. The mixing of colors is (for me) no hurdle, but for newcomers and / or children, the mixing could yet lead to uncertainties and problems. A major drawback is that the finished painted picture bears little resemblance to the picture on the packaging. The color is sometimes completely different. Especially with this design. The "painting" is rather heavy green and the birds are color also not taken all that great. Sure, you should not get too hope that the result looks just like the printed images on the box, there's always small differences. The picture on the box is "only" be a suggestion, but a little reality, the template should be so, because in this design the differences are already badly. I myself was also somewhat disappointed after the completion of the image.
