HOW I COLOUR CRYSTALS, DIAMONDS, & OTHER GEMSTONES IN ADULT COLOURING BOOKS | Adult colouring

Hi guys!
In this video I share with you how I colour my crystals, diamonds and other gemstones in adult colouring books. I will be using colour pencils, specifically the Faber Castell Albrecht Dürer pencils, but dry (shades match up exactly with the Polychromos).
For the crystals I have demonstrated, I will be using the pencil shades below:
Dark Indigo - 157
Cobalt Turquoise - 153
Light Cobalt Turquoise - 154
White - 101
Black - 199
Hopefully I managed to explain my process well enough, it is an easy process to follow I think.
I hope you enjoy the video and got some ideas you can use in your colouring.
Thank you for watching. See you on the next video!
Happy colouring!

Hi guys, Sorry I made a mistake in the video - the book the print out is from is Hanna Karlzon's Summer Nights! 🤗💗

Glad to know that I'm not the only one who continues to struggle with lighting and where it hits. Thanks for sharing this it is very helpful.

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching! 🤩💗 It's nice to know I am not the only one that struggles with light source too!! As someone who doesn't have an art background, I think it is something quite challenging to learn about light source and especially when it hits different materials - with gemstones, in reality, the light source will enter a gemstone and bounce all over the place within it which is what creates the sparkle 😂😂 I wouldn't know where to begin to reproduce that 🤷🏻‍♀️😂💗

OH MY GOSH. I have watched way too many videos on how to color crystals and blindly followed along with each one and have failed miserably until THIS VIDEO!!! ❤ thank you so much for taking the time to make this and finally allowing me to feel more confident with crystals!!!

[@shelscolouringjourney]

You are so welcome and I am very glad you found it helpful!! Thanks for taking time to watch and happy colouring 🤗💗

[@MissAnthropy143]

This is great. I would be interested in seeing you do colored gems too. Since you already explained the crystals in this one, perhaps just seeing you color the others would be sufficient. Either way, thank you for the easy to understand tutorials. 💜

[@shelscolouringjourney]

Thank you! I am so glad my how to colour videos are easy to understand! I will keep that in mind and try get round to doing some other of the stones in different colours, thanks for the suggestion 🤗💗

Excellent tutorial Shel 👏👍. I also like the background on your spider page and am wondering what mediums you used to achieve that.😀

Thank you Nadine 🤗💗 For the spider background, I use only my Faber Castell Albrecht Dürer pencils activated with water, and I used some posca 🤗
