Just wanted to share my experience with grayscales as someone that has just recently started doing them (I have so far colored 3 or 4 grayscale pages). They look much more daunting than they are, they're actually not that much different from a line art book. The only difference is that they have some guidelines printed right into the image for you, which is very helpful for those that aren't as good at knowing where to put lighting and shadows. I've found them to be a little more challenging but not in a bad way. Usually I start by figuring out where I want my highlights and my shadows and very very lightly I put in my shadows with my darkest color where the printed in shading is and then slowly build up my layers from lightest to darkest from there (unless I'm feeling rebellious, then I do the opposite lol). I suggest you get a cheaper grayscale book or maybe buy a single digital page off of etsy or something to test it out for yourself. Don't be discouraged if you find it difficult, it's new and different. If need be there are plenty of color alongs and tutorials on TH-cam for a lot of popular artists that do grayscales. If you want to start out with something simpler than Christine's art I recommend Hannah Lynn's grayscales because they're in a more cartoony style that I find simpler and easier to learn how to do grayscales on. From there I'd move on to ones more like Christine's and from there maybe something more challenging like say Lana Green's. That's how I progressed on my grayscale journey, mind you I do already have a background in art, I just have been severely out of practice for years 😅. I recommend going slow and taking your time with it. If you decide they're not for you, that's fine too!! Both Hannah Lynn and Christine Karron also do line art versions of their art that you can download or purchase books for instead if you end up liking their art. Good luck!
Very cute book
Pretty pictures to colour ❤
These images are so sweet!! 🥰
that is stunning ❤
What a wonderful book, I've just popped it into my wish list (fingers crossed with Xmas coming up lol) Tfs xo
💜💜💜tfs💜💜💜
What kind of printer do you use to print off your pages? Also, what kind of paper do you like?
Oops! I jumped the gun on the printer question. I need to look first and ask second. LOL!
Did you find it in the description box? I always have it there.
@@PamelasPassionforPencils I did right after I sent you the question. I always seem to be a day late and a dollar short. Thank you. 😃
Nice book but I do not know how to do gray scale
