Today, I wanted to make fiery birds. I was thinking of a phoenix although these ones are tiny. XD
This design gives an easier opportunity to put one main color in the middle. It also has a nice composition that leads your eyes to the center.
I used fuchsia and garnet colors for the heart which was quite a lot to color. Copic's tip wasn't that fine and the ink also runs so gotta be careful with the lines.
I went in to color the birds using light colors all the way to dark. I think I used about 5 colors all in just one bird. Using more really brings out the nice value and it blends that it became a nice gradient.
I also made the eggs the same color as the birds and now that I think about it, it might have been better to be teal haha.
It took about 1 and a half hours to do, mostly spending my time filling the heart. XD This was a bit rushed than the other coloring activity only because I just wanted to see how fast I can go. I like the ones that aren't rushed ofc, but no pressure anyway. :D
