Newgrounds Coloring Book Collab

[ForNoReason]

Who doesn't love a good Coloring Book?

The general idea is to contribute in at least one of two ways:

1: Create a lined drawing with no color. It can be based on anything: animals, nature, house things or even best thing NEWGROUNDS related awesomeness! Take your lined drawing with no color and post it here. Then someone can...

2. Take the lined drawing that someone has made and color the damn thing! Simple, complex, shading, abstract or however you want to go about it.

No size limits or quantity limits on who can do what. Just post your photos here, share and have fun!

The best combinations might eventually be put together into a flash collab depending on participation.

here is a rodent type thing to get some people started

They ruin children's imagination.

Not at all! Being forced to work with what you have is the mother of creativity!

Didn't we already have a thread like this?

So I see... I did a forum search and didn't find one called "coloring book" so I thought I was good. Be that as it may, I still think this might be some fun for one and all!

I thought the same when I saw the thread, but I think the important difference is, that whoever posts in here, agrees that his lineart or color job might end up in a flash. Would be complicated to establish that in the old thread.

I'll join in the fun when I get to my laptop.

uh, like everything i make is b/w lineart.... so...

How about we give them pen(cils) and paper instead of forcing them to stay inside the line work?

[ForNoReason]

I made a blog post to keep the Coloring Book Art a little organized:

http://fornoreason.newgrounds.com/news/post/828905

That way people can see what is all available and not have to check out the entire thread.

Upload your line art into your dump and link it here and ill put it in the list. I can upload it into my dump if you don't want to use the space.

Do I have to color an image in order to submit a lineart? it's just that I'm not very good at coloring but I'd really like to make some lineart to this collab.

No you don't. You can do one or the other or both!

[Nacco]

I really lacked inspiration for the line-art. Maybe I'll upload something better later.

Thanks to Mabelma for the line art on this one:

[Amaranthus]

This is so awful it might just look good if someone that doesn't suck colors it in.

I hope.

[bigjonny13]

I found some old lineart I made, but I guess forgot to upload to my thread. So you guys can have some fun colouring it.

I don't know, you have to be pretty imaginative to see a picture of a rabbit and think, "You know what, that rabbit should be green and blue." And then when you show your parents, they check you for mental problems.

That's the thing, most of the time, they even tell you what colours you need to pick and if you're gonna start on one where colour is freely picked, you might as well draw your own bloody thing.
