Koi Diamond Art

Overall, I enjoyed this project. This is the first kit I have purchased, which included an attachment enabling you to pick up multiple diamonds at the same time. This made it easier to fill large areas of the same color. Compared to brands at my local craft store, the beads are not very uniform. This was noticeable with the darker colors. Due to some being smaller, I had to do a lot of sliding of the diamonds after placement to try and cover the symbol on the canvas. The symbols were very easy to read. These photos are of the canvas, finished project, and close ups to see the quality and sizes of the beads.

The Koi set had plenty of diamonds ( drills) and the usual tools to complete it. have worked many diamond painting sets before and know great quality. This set was a little under for quality as the sticky surface was very thick and makes the drills almost float and move around. Also the sections to place the drills on the canvas has larger spaces than normal between placement and the drills do not snap into place. It was impossible to get the rows uniform. The Koi diamond painting turned out quite dramatic with the rich blues, oranges and reds. I think the areas with uneven drills will not be as noticed by the recipient as with me. After I finished I gave it a good coat of DecoArt Americana Triple Thick brush on gloss glaze. And I will mountit in a black shadow box as a gift. If you want a challenge pick this Koi diamond painting kit as it is the only one I could find on Amazon that had good looking Koi. I will try and add a photo when I have finished mounting it in the shadow box.

This was a really beautiful diamond art kit. It had everything I needed and was really fun. The artwork came out beautifully and I can't wait to purchase more.

This design is so much prettier in real life- pictures can't do it justice. Although I've done over 50 diamond paintings, this is easily in my top 5 because of how easy it was, how beautiful it was upon completion, and how sticky the design was. I wish all diamond art paintings were this well made.

I've never done diamond art before so this was my first attempt. It was very easy to follow and had more than enough diamonds of each color and supplies. I was very happy with this purchase. I made it to frame for my cousin's new baby's room.

It was a good project and first diamond art that I have done. Great piece!

This picture was really great and working on it was fun. The letters were clear and easy to see. However, the drills very in size and there are sometimes large gaps when placing them from section to section. It still looks really good from a distance.

This was an easy piece to work on and the picture came out great.

La figura queda bonita con los diamantes, fue bastante entretenido realizarlo y trae más diamantes de los que se necesitan por lo que no hay problema si se caen algunos.

Al final queda muy bonito terminado y los insumos que mandan alcanzan super bien. Es una pena que no venga con bastidor. Lo que me saltó a la vista y no se si fue mi error, es que las letras de referencia al final después de aplicados los diamantes, siguen resaltando es decir que se ven al fondo, aunque de lejos si se alcanzan a difuminar.
