Coloring tips

Shade the main color (#C98C7A) with the shadow color (#5E4A44): color light first, then add the dark only in the deepest spots.
Keep the background (#F2E6CF) for the lightest parts and highlights, or leave the paper white there.
Use the accent (#D4B06A) sparingly, on small spots that should catch the eye.
Blend the accent (#D4B06A) into the highlight (#E4BDB2) for a soft transition.
Blend the main color (#C98C7A) into the second color (#8FA49A) for a soft transition.
Blend while the ink is still wet, from dark to light, with small circles or short strokes.
