Colouring- anyone want to share their efforts?

Is anyone still doing adult colouring out there? I keep having a go., on and off but have been doing the same book for about 2 years now. I promised myself I would finish it last year but I didn't, so have started again after a long break. It would be nice to see other peoples pictures and maybe get some tips and have a purpose for completing them. I do find it relaxing but my eyes get tired quite quickly so do in short bursts. Currently doing Hannah Karlzon daydreams book. Here's a few I have finished so far and one in progress! Any recommendations for colours welcomed.

I never manage to complete a single picture, never mind a whole book!! I like your technique, I tend to try and colour in every adjacent segment a different colour , but your way looks much better!

I wish they would put less pages in a book and make them all single sided as the colours transfer to the opposite page when you try to colour the reverse side. I put a sheet of paper between the pages to protect them once complete but you end up with lots of sheets everywhere then.

What are you using to colour in with? It’s lovely.

Mostly using Faber-Castell Polychromo pencils and some Derwent pencils- the backgrounds are done with Derwent colour soft pencils.
