Mystery Kit #95 - Halloween (Fantasy)

This was my first large DAC kit and first Mystery kit! This was so much fun to work on!! Seeing it come together and all the details! I did see the artist’s IG before I completed the kit and saw the image without realizing that’s what it was and quickly scrolled past lol didn’t see many details luckily so it was still a surprise as I continued to work on the kit. The colors are amazing and again just down to the smallest details like the ombré of the night sky to the shadows of the tree limbs giving that depth of being further away. Incredible. I’m sad it’s over now lol looking forward to another mystery kit!! In case someone comes looking at the reviews, I don’t want to post the entire completed work!

This one really kicked my ****. Unfortunately someone had spoiled it for me by posting their finish before I even got to kit up, but the image was adorable so I decided to do it anyway. This one was very challenging for me, as it was my first ever mystery kit.

I found this kit to be a struggle for me because of the way the image is hidden. This particular image was heavy in the confetti department towards the bottom (where I mistakenly started) and I almost gave up on it several times out of frustration.

I'm glad that I finished it, though, because the final piece was stunning.

Positives :

Challenging, high quality canvas, very little trash drills, adorable image

Negatives :

Horrific static, 97 colors (yikes - had to buy new storage to do this one) and the crystal drills used and their placement were not my favorite (I honestly didn't like how they looked at all).

Overall :

Interesting experience, but I will not be doing a mystery kit again.

This was my very first mystery canvas from DAC and I could not ask for a better experience.

The artwork was stunning and watching the canvas come to life a section at a time was such a joy.

There are very VERY little color blocking which is my greatest joy. SOOOOOOO many colors (97) made this canvases come to life with so many shades and tones.

Very little trash drills and the symbols were clear and readable - I would definitely work on another mystery canvases (from the right artist of course)
