An elephant comes toward you across golden grass, ears spread wide, an amber sun sitting low behind its shoulder and one acacia holding the horizon. The hide is the craft here: three warm grays laid in large planes, with wrinkle lines drawn sparse and bold — a handful of darker runs across the trunk and ears — so the skin reads weathered without dissolving into pepper. The spread ears become the design’s biggest shapes, each a broad two-tone fill that anchors an evening of relaxed placing. Against all that gray, the white tusks and the sun’s clean disc land as the accents that organize the whole scene. Golden grass runs in two flat tones along the bottom third, the kind of generous fill that lets you binge a podcast while the savanna assembles under your hands. The finished canvas has that wildlife-documentary stillness, and the warm palette keeps it from feeling somber. For safari-themed rooms, nurseries included.
The chart, measured
Every number on this page is read from this design’s actual manufacturing chart — the same
file the 106×106 symbol canvas is printed from — not estimated for marketing.

17 DMC colors over 11,236 drills is a mid-complexity build — enough palette changes to stay interesting, not enough to feel like admin. The workload skews orange: 9 of the 17 colors are orange steps, covering 54% of the canvas, with DMC 3860 alone accounting for 13% (1,473 drills). No confetti colors: every DMC in the tray covers at least 1% of the canvas, which keeps every bag genuinely in play.
