  1. 🎨✨ Wow, behold the majestic #MOSS, where #painting is just a fancy excuse to make #programmers feel artsy! Let's all pretend our accidental smears are masterpieces while pretending our 'customizable' brushes aren't just digital paint-by-numbers 😂.

  2. RE: mastodon.longlandclan.id.au/@s

    We used to have a full-resolution version of these photos, but sadly, lost to the sands of time. I think they were on a USB stick that quietly bitrotted in a drawer.

    But, the thought occurred to me, my mother likes paint-by-numbers, could we turn one of these into a paint-by-numbers puzzle? Turns out, yes.

    I used The Gimp and its "Oilify" plug-in to get a rough approximation of what we were after. From there, I stumbled on pbnify.com/ which allowed me to convert it to a rough paint-by-numbers puzzle.

    We'll have to mix the paints ourselves, but this is I think a nice personal tribute to a much loved and missed pet.

  3. Oh, another #GUI #rant to remind us how much we love endless tech stacks and ever-changing screen resolutions. 🤦‍♂️💻 Just what we needed—more glorified paint-by-numbers kits for the tech elite to argue over. 🖼️🎨

  4. Ah, finally, the #IDE we never knew we needed: the revolutionary Paint by Numbers approach to coding! 🎨🤖 Because who doesn't want to write spaghetti code with a Paintbrush while pretending MS Paint is a viable alternative to Visual Studio? Can't wait for the next update when we code in Excel spreadsheets and execute from PowerPoint slides! 📊🖌️

  5. Just finished my painting - I absolutely love the final image!

    (It's a paint by numbers acrylic painting)

  6. I've been working on this paint by number for the last few weeks, I thought it was a typical autumn scene. After the fires in California, I'm not sure! 🍂 🍁

  7. This looks much better from a distance than it did while working up close on it. #painting #PaintByNumbers

  8. Trying to decide if I’m going to do a second coat of this yellow-ish color or call it good. #PaintByNumbers

  9. She’s all finished but for the varnish. Will be a present for my mom, as this is her late dog. #dog #DogsOfMastodon #painting #PaintByNumbers

  10. Finally got some progress on this. It’s a smaller canvas than I usually do, and I have to wait between numbers for the paint to dry. And it’s been humid enough that takes longer than I’d like. Hoping I keep having the time and energy this week to work on her more. #dog #WIP #painting #PaintByNumbers

  11. #PaintByNumbers 🖼️ is fun, but ‘paint by longitude and latitude’ is amazing! 🤩

  12. I am glad I bought a giant tube of titanium white early in my #PaintByNumbers career. The white in kits almost always lacks sufficient pigment for coverage, and it can add coverage with just a very little bit to other paints not fully covering. And when I spill a bunch of white on the canvas, I don’t have to try and save any of it. 🙃

  13. It’s not done like it would have been if I’d gotten my vacation, but it’s getting closer. #painting #PaintByNumbers #WIP

  14. Can't decide if I want to make use of the two boxes of boards and put a bunch of my folded canvases on them or if I want to keep whittling down the rolled kits to make more room in the storage bin for completed paintings. Or just get another storage bin. #PaintByNumbers #StashProblems

  15. Four colors left. Hopefully just 2 more days, but there’s a lot of #1 and #10 is likely to be annoying, but they both need to be the last colors. Ah well. #art #painting #PaintByNumbers
