Coloring tips

  • Shade the main color (#FCAFC2) with the shadow color (#5F4152): color light first, then add the dark only in the deepest spots.
  • Keep the background (#FFF9F4) for the lightest parts and highlights, or leave the paper white there.
  • Use the accent (#92D5F3) sparingly, on small spots that should catch the eye.
  • Blend the main color (#FCAFC2) into the second color (#F7D784) for a soft transition.
  • Blend while the ink is still wet, from dark to light, with small circles or short strokes.
