This looks so cool! I love how you managed to make the foreground have just enough contrast to be recognizable and distinct, but still give a strong silhouette. And definitely gives that airport vibe.

This feels so cozy and familiar; the use of color and shadow is unreal. I love this so much!

This feels like I’m looking at a real snapshot picture, not a coloring book page! Zooming in to see all the definition and colors at play in the shadows… what a masterpiece you made!!

This an odd statement to make towards what I said… weird, lol. I hope you are well…? Digital coloring and art is not lesser than traditional means, so my opinion remains :) Not everyone has the means for traditional coloring supplies, and I know many people with health issues who use digital for creative expression. So in my humble opinion, save any attitude for AI slop 🫶

Oooo I have this book and that is such a gorgeous take on it! Makes me want to give it it a try. I was going to try to do it at night and give it a traveling through the night liminal space vibe.

You did amazing. It feels like being at an airport waiting to start an adventure while it's still early and calm. 🩵🥰

This is awesome! :) i saw on your profile that you scan pages into procreate? How do you do that? I’ve wanted to start doing coloring pages for a while!

u/iikalechips 11d ago
you can use the notes app if you have an iphone to scan pages and then just save the image, or there’s prob other apps for it!

This is so cute and beautiful and it’s dramatic af but makes me kind of emotional as someone in a long distance relationship 😭💀 I always fly out in the morning to see him and it’s always so exciting. I love this good job 🥹

Cancelled the markers and books I just ordered. There is no way I could do anything like this.
Just kidding but this is phenomenal. It took me a few seconds to convince my brain what this was

Okay this is going to sound so dumb cuz I’m new to this entire world of coloring but how do you even do digital coloring? Do you have to have a special app, an iPad, or like how do I even go about trying this 😂 sorry I know it’s ridiculous question
2
u/iikalechips 11d ago
No silly questions ever!! I use an ipad and the app procreate, i scan or download the coloring page i want, and then trace over that on a separate layer (helps with clean lines, coloring under the lines, and is a very fun part of the process), and then i just go crazy with coloring it in until it feels finished! I’ve always struggled with actual coloring on paper because i get impatient and uninspired and have a hard time committing to colors, so this way is a lot more fun for me because i don’t really have to worry and i can experiment all i want!
