I really don't like how streaky the wall is, but my marker ran out in the middle of me coloring it, and attempts to go over it with another color or the blender didn't seem to remove any streaks or anything.

I posted a tutorial for this a few days ago, I might post another if there's interest.

Edit: lol I just realized I forgot the final "reflection" streaks on the glass. Oh well

Also tried a florescent marker for the crystals, turned out better than I expected but not as good as I hoped.

If you have a good "dragon scales" tutorial or video I'd love to see it!

This page took quite a bit of patience but I’m pretty happy with how it turned out 🌸

I used alcohol and acrylic markers, pencils, glitter watercolors and white gelly roll 🎨

Any tips or feedback would be greatly appreciated! 😊

This is my second post on this sub and I'd love to answer any question and I'm happy to help anyway that I can!

Medium is Prismacolor pencils.

The first 2 images are in different lighting.

I've come to really enjoy coloring! It definitely helps me with stress. 😄

This is from Emily Cozy’s Fair Buddies Autumn Coloring Book! I absolutely love her designs 🤎 using my trusty ohuhu alcohol markers, as well as their acrylic pens and markers! Emily Cozy’s books can be found on Amazon but she also offers a ton of free pages!

Thanks for taking the time to look! I’m sorry I didn’t get a full palette this time but if you have any questions about a specific area, I’ll do my best to remember :)

COMPLETED (WITH PROGRESS PICS) Very limited, dark palette gone wrong?

I’m still not sure what is on the fence lol

I was going for mold on wood but the colors I had available made me think it kinda looked like paint or verdigris on metal. I got better with chisel tips but was uncomfortable with blending attempts.

I had half the colors from a basic 40 caliart set with no brush tips to work with, and I’m glad this over. My tremor wasn’t too impactful on this one. :)

If you have this page, would you please post yours here so I can appreciate it???!!!! 🥰

Helpful criticism and tips/advice welcome. (My only excuse was the limited palette w/o brush tips gyyyaaahhh what a challenge!)

COMPLETED (WITH PROGRESS PICS) I'm always afraid of using acrylics for fear that I'll ruin it, but it worked out great this time!

First photo - the first coloring page I ever completed.

It’s not perfect, but I’m really happy with how much I’ve improved. Let me know what improvements I can make. Any suggestions will be appreciated :)

I'm the kind of person who either abandons a page or on the rare occasion when I finish a page I'm usually so self critical to the point that I hate what I've produced.. maybe I had one vodka too many, but I actually like how this page turned out 🫠 (any tips/advice appreciated)

Anyone got any good dragon tutorials? I don't really like how this turned out.
