#coloring book archive

[avengerchuck]

"Rocko," you may be asking- "Why is this coloring book such a big deal to you? Why go through the trouble of uploading and archiving all of these? It's a coloring book for babies featuring a cartoon mouse and his friends. Come on." I have...created...an edit that I have wanted to make for a very long time. Using the brand new official lineart in the coloring book, and colors picked straight from the Pumpkins in my Pockets animation. I present to you: A FIRST RUN OF OFFICIAL, COMPLETED, 2D ROCKSTAR ART:

I take no credit for this, it is just an edit of a picture I took with my phone. And this is just the tip of the iceberg! Imagine the possibilities! The never before seen art of EVERY character, but especially Bella who doesn't really have any art to begin with. The icons! The uses for references and stickers and all sorts of other junk I can't even think of right now!

I am NOT going to do every single page of this book in such a manner, but you all have free reign to do whatever you want with the lines and white background edits once we're done with the google drive. More to come!!! Exciting!!!

I’m blaming Adolin for this because no way using a color that gets dirty so easily was Dalinar’s idea

All good comics need a cover page, yes? This is for my Pet Project.

A friend of mine said this would make a marvelous coloring page. So, if anyone wants to color this, just tag me when it’s done. I’m excited to see what is made from it!

The painted, finished product coming soon ~!

Full Scan of Digimon Coloring and Activity Book from 2000

From solving the MATT maze to coloring a weird-looking tokomon, there’s tons to do in this activity book! Places to download ⬇️

This is done to the best of my ability with a scanning app on my iPad. Some pages have faint patterns in the background, which didn’t always show up properly in the scan. Also this book is 96 pages long, so it is a large file and may take time to download.

probably an unpopular opinion but i still think Splatoon 1 has the best graphics style in the series

the graphics were so much moodier and darker, shadows were really prominent giving it a much more gritty and realistic feel

The far-off environmental elements had a nice blur that gives them a bit of a dreamlike quality IMO.

I know the top picture is a sunset level, but; seriously is it just me? Why is everything in Splatoon 2 SO CRISP AND BRIGHT AND NEON? I talked about (probably 2 years ago at this point) how Splatoon 2 feels like it's an evolution and commercialization of Turf Wars into a product and a brand rather than how in Splatoon 1 they had a much more backstreet, discreet, shady feeling. And I feel like the graphics carry that over weirdly enough.

But most importantly, the ink and the Inklings themselves; ever since Splatoon 2 came out and people started going "omg the ink looks so good now!" i. literally never agreed with that. even with Splatoon 3 i STILL THINK the ink looks the best in Splatoon 1. In Splatoon 2 and 3, they have really been leaning into making the ink extremely neon and super saturated, and I don't think it looks great. I can't really even pinpoint the difference here (especially not with the Inklings themselves, but).

(Splatoon 1 above, Splatoon 2 under)

The Inklings in humanoid form don't stray away from having dull or dark colored tentacles in different lighting conditions, and even the ink itself is nowhere near as saturated as it is, leaning more into quieter or pastel tones. Again, it makes it look nice paired with the darker graphics of the game, and somehow it feels really at home and pretty natural? The difference in the model of the Inkling itself is also a mystery of me, it might be a case of less shading or less specular making it look flatter and that's more pleasing to the eye than how shiny they are nowadays, ESPECIALLY in Splatoon 2. The ink is notably flatter than it is in newer games, and if it wasn't obvious I definitely think it still just, looks the best? Don't ask me how. (The squids also look amazing. Like gummy.)

just thought about putting that out there. Anyone else's thoughts on the games' graphics?

Heidi Gustafson’s ‘Book of Earth’

In her new Book of Earth, published by Abrams, she takes us on a journey through rare pigments and their landscapes in a celebration of what she describes as the “behavior, capacities, being-ness, language, needs, and concerns” of the material.

Each chapter of Book of Earth is dedicated to an aspect of Gustafson’s archive, which contains more than 600 samples. The volume elucidates the world of natural color, challenging our perceptions of terrain and the inanimate world, and includes practical advice and techniques for creating your own pigments.

GUYS, TGE COLORING BOOK I PREORDERED SHIPPED EARLY!!!!! SHITTING MY PANTS!!!!!

LOTS of brand new official art to archive. I am kind of in the middle of something, but if anyone has specific requests for characters/pictures they want me to upload I’ll be on it asap!! My intent is to upload these so YOU (whoever’s reading this) don’t have to buy the book just to look at the art. You can also request to be tagged for anything specific that ends up being in here, just LMK in a reply!

I intend to edit them so they look cleaner, too, but here are some cellphone images as a sneak peak just for right now:

I AM SO FUCKING HYPED!!!!!!! I’ll comb through every page once I’m done trying to deal with a specific irl matter. May take up until Sunday, but I’ll have plenty of free time to do all this by then.

If someone uploads these cleanly somewhere before I get the chance, please send me an ask or something so I know I don’t have to be the one doing the work, would appreciate it lots ‘:o)
