Does anyone have nice, clean scans or shots of the original 6 UNPAINTED canvases?

If so, please respond via PM.

A PBN contest would be a hoot!

    I guess this sort of belongs in this thread. Being a big Mummy fan, I decided to recreate my own; I found the best artwork I could find online, cleaned it up a bit, scaled it up to size, printed it out and used it as a template to paint. Then I glued it on cardboard for stability, and, POOF!, instant paint-by-numbers kit. I tried to sort of copy the color scheme on the box, going with  "cooler" colors, such as blue, green & purple. I will probably do a neon, day-glo version of this in the future, as well as attempting the other characters.

   What I like about the Mummy artwork is that I reminds me of the scene in The Mummy's Tomb where Elyse Knox wakes up to discover Kharis there, reaching out to grab her!

I was thinking, where can I steal the money to buy a Creature paint by #s?

Sure wish I would have had some spare bucks to bid on this,  I was following it,  actually for how rare it is, it wasn't a bad price, super tough to find in any condition, let alone like this.

Is anyone handy enough to edit this into a full page so we can try to paint it?

I'll give it a whack. Kinda have to guess on the missing part. Maybe the cover art will help?

Actually, I already had that photo, and tried it. Hopefully, this helps someone, even if some of the numbers are a bit hard to make out.
