Coloring tips

• Shade the main color (#856DBD) with the shadow color (#211C25): color light first, then add the dark only in the deepest spots.
• Keep the background (#F4F1EF) for the lightest parts and highlights, or leave the paper white there.
• Use the accent (#CD7847) sparingly, on small spots that should catch the eye.
• Blend the accent (#CD7847) into the second color (#D5B484) for a soft transition.
• Blend while the ink is still wet, from dark to light, with small circles or short strokes.
