I thought stained glass would be fun butttt I’m not really getting the ‘glowing’ vibe I was going for, because I was coloring on white paper. Next time I’ll try neon or maybe a glowstick?

I’d still love recommendations for cracked and liquid please!

What do we think? I was pretty proud of it but then I see everyone else’s work and I’m like…. Mine is not that great.

Would love tips on how I can improve!

Time taken: too long 😂

Hanna Karlzon - Halloween

Colored with Colored pencils, water-based markers as watercolor, and acrylic marker.

I just got myself Ohuhu Honolulu brush markers and Ohuhu Ulu acrylic markers and had to do a few pages. I haven't coloured in about a year so I have been non-stop in my supplies lol. I will probably keep finishing more pages and I want to try some of these techniques I've been seeing online! I tried my hand at the ghost effect but I'd like to do it much better than I have yet. First page was inspired by a popular video game, whoever gets it gets an upvote from me lol

I can't decide whether I want this to be monochromatic or...? All colours I've used are on the Cyan colour range and I'm not sure if I should fill the page with blue-green tones or not.

I did water ripples and aurora borealis for the first time already, I'm feeling intimidated to finish it. I have Ohuhu alcohol markers, Ohuhu acrylic markers, and some pencil crayons at my reach. I am very much a "chaos/dopamine" colorist so I don't normally do challenges...but I do want to challenge myself. Thoughts, opinions, advice?

Je lis beaucoup sur le coloriage, je regarde beaucoup de tutoriel, j'essaye d'apprendre, mais je ne pratique quasiment jamais !!!

J'ai tenté quelques motifs et une combinaison plutôt chaude, mais avec juste 6 marqueurs +1 pour le fond...

Je ne sais pas moi-même ce que j'en pense....

Toutes critiques constructives sont les bienvenues !!!

C'est dingue j'ai l'impression de passer un examen lol 😅

Mais je me suis beaucoup amusée en le faisant !!! 😉

Got a new halloween coloring book this year so here's some finished pages with purple vibes 💜

Any feedback or tips welcome.

I used Crayola markers & crayons, pencil, and ballpoint pen.

My first Melpomeni Chatzipanagiotou page in Circle of Life. I has just got some new inktense pencils and kalour pencils for my birthday so i played about with them a little bit on this page. When i first started it out i was gonna do the background purple and orange but then i got scared to commit to the purple so i just left it pink. Its a bit of a vibe even tho it is VERY pink🤣 if i knew i was gonna change my mind i wouldnt have done so much reds and pinks in the plants🙈

Finished this last week. 90% was done with Crayola pencils 50 pack. 5% with Prisma Scholar pencils and 5% with water-based markers from the dollar store. The page is from a dollar store colouring book as well. You don't have to spend alot to be creative. 😊

books are either Witchy Woman by Crayola or Oceans to Stars by Lydia Fenwick.

Mostly alcohol markers. Some gel pen, acrylic markers, water-so liable crayon & minimal colored pencil.

So far, I’ve only been able to successfully color things by copying other people’s choices in shadows and highlights. I do try to imagine where the light is coming from, but it’s not always obvious to me where the shadows will fall. I especially love those coloring pages where people only use two or three colors. Any place to specifically work on that technique?

Here’s my 2nd completed page, using someone else’s version as a reference 😬

Tried my hand at a window frame shadow.. I think I sorta missed the mark a little bit but not terribly, I guess. Anyone have any notes on what I could have done different? Since I kinda messed up, I took the opportunity to just play around on the rest of the page (I.e. “fuzzy” textures, old worn out looks, etc) I also did the window a darker blue originally and realized that just didn’t make sense, so I had to go over in a yellow acrylic, so the window looks a bit janky as well😂 better than it did before tho I guess.

Anyway, any tips appreciated!

I’m coloring while my kid colors and it’s switching how I see my hobby! Usually I’m a ‘product’ hobbyist, when I knit, it’s because I have a specific sweater I want to wear, when I read I am a completionist who almost always finishes the book, when I bake it’s because I want to eat (or share) X item. 

But I have a 4 year old, and I grabbed a color by number book to work on while he colors, and I’ve started to color for the sake of coloring. No pressure, no real goal with the finished product, just create. And I’m having fun!  It got me thinking though, especially with the rise of Social Media, do you create as a process, or to have a very cool finished picture?

This time I went for a much much simpler page. I was quite intimidated but these gigantic objects but I really enjoyed colouring it. It also went very fast. The background didn’t blend as well as I was hoping, so something definitely to work on. I tried to save it but I think I just made it worse 😅. I also didn’t know what to do with those squiggly things, so I just added some glitter over them. It’s not really visible on the picture though.
