I love a good detailed book K, lots of wonderful books in your collection I haven't seen before. This video was perfect timing as I'm about to delve into Secret World by Stephanie Law 🤗
I had never seen the majority of those books so thank you for that, it's always fun to see books no one talks about anymore. It just goes to show how more books come every day and how easy it is to forget about what you already have. I've destashed my collection twice and still probably have enough pages to color for the rest of my life and not get to them.... yet just bought another one yesterday lol.
Know exactly what you mean. Always good to go through your book shelves every couple of months or so to refresh your memory and pick out something you might have forgotten about
Great unusual books. It is so nice to finally see someone who does not always colour in the common books that we see in every colourist TH-cam channel. So thank you for this. I would love to see your colour ( in a video) in the Japanese book ( the one you bought 2 copies of) and in the Stephanie Law’s book as well. I bought them because of you even though I do not know how to start them for the life of me 😂
That’s a good idea, I will try to do a partial colour along so talk through and demonstrate different parts of the page and techniques in a Japanese book. It’s just a bit demoralising as those sort of videos require a lot of time and effort but get very few views. I’ll still plan to do one though
Thank you for sharing this! I saw a lot of books that I don't have and I'd like to get! Some of them I have looked for and was unable to find them(on Amazon US) so I'll have to keep searching! A while back I saw the Vintage My Room book on Amazon but there was only one copy and it was selling for $50! I just couldn't bring myself to pay that much for it, although I do love it and I'd love to have a copy!
Hi K! Thank you for this video! I love intricate coloringbooks. The Tomislav Tomic books are favourite and i have those ( i didn’t colour in them yet). A couple of months ago i bought Wildergorn from Jamie Courtier and this mega big book is my favourite now. I did not colour in it yet, because it is so beautifull i don’t want to ruin it for this price. But one day……i have to hurry i am not yhe youngest anymore 😂😂😂!
Great collection of books! I have 'To the ends of the earth and back again' and I love it. I have the first page completed and plan to continue to the 'End', so to speak. :o) Thanks for sharing! 🎨
great video :) , found it really interesting , I have some of the Japanese books you showed , please could I have the isbn for the Vintage my room book to see if I can track it down ? :)
About "to the ends of the earth and back again". Maybe it is an Idea to start this book as a color along...long time buddy color with a group of people? I kind of love that idea. If you are into it? Let me know. We can do a shout out to the coloring community and set a date . Love Selina
It sounds like a good idea but a commitment! Do you have Instagram, may be we can chat on there more easily and plan it out? See if there are others who are interested in joining?
Do you recall what brand of alcohol markers you were using? I've used my Ohuhu extensively and never had them bleed yellow like that. I adore everything about the Mythographic series, the art, the paper, the size, etc. If I had to give up all my other books those are the ones I would keep. The only negative is they have a tendency to fall apart due to the perforated pages, I spiral bind all my books these days though and it solves that. Regarding those complicated pages I go in with my pastel alcohol markers and base the entire page first. Just a flat layer of pale color with no attention to shading. It lets me figure out what is what and get a "map" of the page. Then color or paint over the top. The pastel markers are light enough that it really doesn't matter exactly what shade they are as long as the basic hue is correct, but it helps so much and really speeds up the coloring after since you have that basic first layer covering the white. You could easily do the same thing with any pastel medium that doesn't fill the tooth.. tombow, watercolor, etc.
Thanks for the tips, must try that but with detailed books I’m worried the alcohol marker tip will bleed out of the lines. May be I need to get really fine tip alcohol markers. Do you know any brands with fine tips and pastel shades? The ones that yellowed were the Arteza ever blend markers, the first ones that came out (bullet and chisel tip ones)
@@ColouringwithK I love the Ohuhu Honolulu B's. They have a brush on one end and a fine tip on the other. They have two 48 piece pastel sets now for a total of 96 pastel colors.. I have the first original one which I'm 90% sure is the "sweetness" set now.. it's the one with Light Prawn if you are looking at the listings. It's fabulous because it has a warm and cool pastel for every hue, including actual red (not pink), grey, and brown. The other pastel set is lovely too but not as versatile. They also have gorgeous skin and greytone sets with very unique colors compared to other brands. I'd love to get the full set someday, but it's expensive since there are around 300 markers in it...and honestly the way I use them as bases with pencils over the top that one pastel set is enough for any page. I have collected a few other open stock markers from Hobby Lobby's house brand for dark backgrounds.. that is a craft store here in the US. They are cheap when on sale and have a brush tip.. they work fine for background colors but I wouldn't want to use them on fine detail. Unfortunately Ohuhu doesn't offer open stock but I've heard they are now selling ink refills for many of their colors, and replacement tips.
Great video, excellent books. I really really should just start colouring in my Virtical Worlds and Vintage My Room books. Im worried if i don't soon i never will lol xx
I was hoping so much that you would show Vertical Worlds because I knew you had it but I couldn’t ever remember its name😂. So TYSMFS! Even if I can’t find it to buy, at least the mystery has finally been solved! I love your finished pages! Happy coloring 👍🏾😎!
The Tomislav Tomic books are my favorites. I just love them. I, too, wish he would do another. But then the Basford books are a close second. For me, some books are TOO detailed. I do not like large areas of blank spaces to be colored, but I get cross-eyed if every little space needs to be individually colored! I would love to see a flip-through sometime of the pages you completed in the Tomic books; the pictures I briefly saw looked--as always--stunning.
I think I have a much earlier video where I have shared my completed pages in the Tomislav Tomic books. I’ve not really coloured in those books in the past couple of years so those are pages completed from quite some time ago.
Sorry about that, I will check my settings on the camera. The quality of my videos in general, could be better but the gear icon suggestion is fab - thank you!
Lovely collection K. I love Angela Porters books too. She has a new one coming out next month I have on preorder but there is one due early next year too.
@@ColouringwithK the one for this puzzle is pretty small, so not as intimidating as others. I think 500 pieces. My mom and I tend to do 1000 or 1500 piece puzzles. Not sure what a non puzzler would think is small. I got it through ravensburger puzzles.
@@ColouringwithK Amazing ! It's such a neat book but you don't really see alot of people coloring in it. It's also a little intimidating but you color it so beautifully.

Your work in the Tomislav book is just beautiful ❤ I collect the Japanese and korean colouring books. They can be so much nicer than british books
Totally agree

If only Book depository did not close, these books were available there and now I just don’t know where we can get them from

I need to pluck up the courage to start that one so well done and good luck in finishing it, great project 😊
This is just great, and I thought I'd let you know that you are, by far, my favourite colorist! 😊
Wow, thank you so much 😊
Amazing collection of books k.. and stunning colouring pages your work is outstanding tysmfs 🥰
Thank you so much!
great video :) , found it really interesting , I have some of the Japanese books you showed , please could I have the isbn for the Vintage my room book to see if I can track it down ? :)
Hi there, it is ISBN 978-89-7067-303-5 Good luck, it’s a great book and I don’t blame you trying to find it.
We definately love the same books it would seem....I have just started a project in the ends of the earth book too
Wow, would love to see an update of how much you’ve done on IG if you get the chance Emma x
Super selection of books, with a few I need to get back to. Some amazing pages you've completed in these!💗❤ Great to see them, x
Thanks so much Wendy! My full time job should be to be a colourist, I think. Oh that would be bliss!
@@ColouringwithK oh goodness, if only a living could be made doing this!🤞🏼I think a lottery win is more likely!😉😁
You have a lovely collection of books K, you have something to suit most moods I think 😊
I think so too! Thanks 😊
Great collection, Lost Ocean was my first coloring book. I still love it.
It's so good! I don’t blame you 😊
Thank you for the video. It was my request 😀
You’re very welcome, thanks for the idea! ❤️😊

Just ordered to the ends of the earth book liked the look of it and thought I’d do it like you said as a project for next year.
I wish the other books I’m that series were also available but unfortunately they are not
Very nice and what fineliner marker or pencils you use lost ocean ?
The Staedtler triplus fineliners are my favourites as they don’t really bleed through the page. Pencils will be the Polychromos
Love love love 💗💗💗!!!
Great video, excellent books. I really really should just start colouring in my Virtical Worlds and Vintage My Room books. Im worried if i don't soon i never will lol xx
You definitely should, those books are highly sought and are difficult to get now so it would be a shame if they are not coloured in!
@@ColouringwithK I think I'm just worried that I won't do them justice, you know what I mean?
@@gagaforgluing8247 know what you mean, but you must give it a go, may be on a much smaller less detailed page to start with
@@ColouringwithK yeah I think I just need to go for it. ❤️

You can click on the gear icon and adjust the picture quality to be a higher one, that may help.

Very nice collection of intricate books! You do an amazing job coloring in them! Thanks for sharing 😀
Thanks so much 😊
Lovely collection K. I love Angela Porters books too. She has a new one coming out next month I have on preorder but there is one due early next year too.
Yes, I think it’s the whimsical houses which I am also looking forward to 😊
Cool Collection
Thank you!
@@ColouringwithK Your welcome
I have that Colin Thompson bookshelf page as a puzzle! It’s so much fun to put together!
I have thought about getting his jigsaw puzzles, but I’m unlikely to be that good at them, may be one day!
@@ColouringwithK the one for this puzzle is pretty small, so not as intimidating as others. I think 500 pieces. My mom and I tend to do 1000 or 1500 piece puzzles. Not sure what a non puzzler would think is small. I got it through ravensburger puzzles.
Would love to see a curious creatures color and chat 😊
Good idea! I’ve written it down ❤️😊
@@ColouringwithK Amazing ! It's such a neat book but you don't really see alot of people coloring in it. It's also a little intimidating but you color it so beautifully.
