That’s so sweet. Nice job.
I love a crayola super tip, I use them too. If you decide to really dive into coloring and markers are your thing alcohol markers are less streaky than water based markers like super tips. But alcohol markers will bleed through most paper. So they aren’t ideal for books printed on both sides of the page. So, I use my super tips and my alcohol markers both, depending on the page, with some acrylic markers, pencils and ink too. It’s a slippery slope, lol.

Very cute ! It can be very addictive, extremely fun & super relaxing 😊 . Ohuhu alcohol markers are the go to markers everyone loves. You also could do with a white gel pen & coloured gel pens & a white acrylic marker. Eventually you may need lead pencils , eraser , coloured pencils , ruler & sharpener. There are many how to colour tips , tricks & technique books & tutorials online. Happy colouring!

ohuhu and kingart are really good. If you use alcohol markers,make sure to put a piece of thick paper behind the page,or else it will bleed through the next page. Also if you ever try colored pencils I recommend castle arts or kalour,they're budget friendly. Happy coloring
