Wondering whether to choose our Great Detail 48-color option or our Maximum Detail 64-color option for your custom paint-by-number? This side-by-side example of Yoda shows how additional colors can create more subtle shades, tones, and transitions throughout the image. The 64-color version often allows for richer depth and finer detail, especially in areas like fur, eyes, and shadows, while the 48-color version still offers a beautifully detailed and enjoyable painting experience. Because more colors can also mean more individual cells to paint, Maximum Detail is best for those who love a more intricate, realistic result.
