Coloring tips

  • Shade the main color (#6E9E5E) with the shadow color (#2D3B26): color light first, then add the dark only in the deepest spots.
  • Keep the background (#FBF7EE) for the lightest parts and highlights, or leave the paper white there.
  • Use the accent (#F06C9B) sparingly, on small spots that should catch the eye.
  • These colors are far apart: blend each one with a lighter or darker marker from the same family instead of with each other.
  • Blend while the ink is still wet, from dark to light, with small circles or short strokes.
