HOW I COLOUR - BACKGROUNDS IN COLOURING BOOKS | Using Neocolor II | Adult Colouring

Hi guys!
A quick and simple video to show you my process of colouring a background using Neocolor II - this was a requested video so I am happy I was able to do this. My process is similar to using watercolour pencils, but it is definitely a lot quicker to complete a background with these crayons.
Neocolors II used int this video:
-Salmon pink 071
-Salmon 051
-Flesh 042
I hope you find this video interesting! Catch you on my next video.
Happy colouring…

    I see you did this Tutorial (one I really wanted to see) a year and a half ago--but, alas, we had not yet met! LOL! Anyway, I have just rushed over to Amazon and bought myself the Neocolor IIs--they are brilliant and just what I need to do my backgrounds. I am a newcomer to coloring (started Sept 2023)---so have lots to catch up on. Your Tutorials are, I find, the most relaxing and educational--thank you! Lynn in NYC

    I love my Neocolors 2. They do last a very long time so push the wax on to the paper so you achieve a more opaque finish. Love them so much!!!!!!!!

    THey look really nice to use. I had a look and the full set of neocolour 11 is quite expensive. Do you think one needs the full set ? Thank you in advance. Btw. Have just found you channel and I am binge watching lol. Looking forward to seeing you do one in the book by Clare Therese gray, the woodland watercolor. I think that is such a beautiful book, that I own but have not started yet. I se prismacolor that I have had for about 15 years, but I only have the 70 (I think) set. I love your work, new subscriber here for sure !

    Welcome to the channel and I am so happy you found me!! To be honest, I don’t think you need the full set for neocolor II as you can mix colours to get a colour you want. You can also get a smaller set and slowly build up to the full set by buying the stock crayons in singles over a period of time. Hope this helps!! Hope you enjoy the channel, thanks for taking time to watch my videos 🤗💗

    You don’t prep your pages with gesso or a medium? How do the pages stay so flat without warping? When I use water brushes, they seep top much water…yes, I constantly dab the brush on a paper towel. Have tried many brands, but they all seep too much and I get warping.

    I don't prep my pages in any way as I don't like the feeling of the gesso. But I have found using a brush dipped in water rather than waterbrushes definitely gives more control with the amount of water used and very little water is needed to activate the pencils. Usually putting the book under some weight helps to flatten it out too if needed. Hope this helps 🤗💗

    Have you ever tried Lyra watercolor crayons. I see they are less expensive than Neocolor II. But I never see anyone else use them.

    I haven't used them actually....I just tried out the neocolor II as stock crayons, and enjoyed them. And I like that I can get them as stock crayons if I ever needed too (although I can't see me needing to replace them for many years to come!!). 🤗💗
