Coloring tips

  • Shade the main color (#D9A88B) with the shadow color (#4D3F38): color light first, then add the dark only in the deepest spots.
  • Keep the background (#F1E4D1) for the lightest parts and highlights, or leave the paper white there.
  • Use the accent (#7B8FA6) sparingly, on small spots that should catch the eye.
  • Blend the accent (#7B8FA6) into the second color (#9A8F6A) for a soft transition.
  • Blend while the ink is still wet, from dark to light, with small circles or short strokes.
