Coloring tips

Shade the main color (#ABC8D9) with the shadow color (#30414E): color light first, then add the dark only in the deepest spots.
Keep the background (#EEF2F3) for the lightest parts and highlights, or leave the paper white there.
Use the accent (#92C164) sparingly, on small spots that should catch the eye.
Blend the second color (#6FA5C0) into the main color (#ABC8D9) for a soft transition.
Blend while the ink is still wet, from dark to light, with small circles or short strokes.
