Landmarks of the World Color Your Way from Barcelona to Beijing Abi Daker 9781454709916 Books Reviews

• This is a coloring book of various iconic buildings from around the world. The buildings range from religious to museums, government, castles, and more. The buildings are from a variety of continents, including Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia and Europe. The cover of the book (front and back) fold out with coloring opportunities in red line drawings on off-white paper.
  
  I will list the buildings at the end of this review (in the comments section) for anyone interested. The designs are quite intricately drawn and include many small areas to color.
  
  When I first pre-ordered this book, I didn't realize that it would be architecture in nature. When I think of landmarks, I think of things other than simply buildings. While I am pleased with the book, I was surprised to see only buildings in it. The designs are printed on one side of the page and on the page opposite (the back of the preceding page) is a short blurb about the design – what it is, when it was constructed, etc.)
  
  My first project in this book was of of the Forbidden City in Beijing, China. My husband recently spent weeks in Beijing for business and brought back beautiful pictures, including one that was very close to the design in the book. I used a variety of colored pencils to finish my project. I took my inspiration for color from his photo, which I will upload as well as my colored design. I will probably stray from realistic colors in my next projects and just have fun re-making these famous buildings in a wide range of colors.
  
  This is what I found in coloring in this book and testing it with various coloring mediums
  
  35 Landmark Buildings – hand-drawn, detailed, intricate
  Designs printed on one side of page (though information about designs are printed on the back side.)
  Paper is white, slick, heavyweight and non-perforated
  Sewn Binding
  Designs merge into the binding area (can remove pages without loss of design by snipping binding threads
  Alcohol-based markers bleed through this paper. I suggest using a blotter page below your working page with these. They will bleed through on the writing on the back of the page but the blotter will keep the design below from being ruined.
  Water-based markers, India ink pens and gel pens do not bleed through this paper. Gel pens require additional drying time.
  Coloring pencils were mixed. I found that both wax and oil based pencils had good color and layered well but blending was a problem on this smooth paper. The color seems to adhere to the original spot and only light blending happens as the very edges. Hard lead pencils did not dent the back of the page.
• I love this coloring book! First of all, the drawings are on one side of the page only with the backs blank. Also the paper is a nice thickness. The drawings are interesting and challenging without being too difficult. There’s quite a variety of landmarks from Ankar Wat to New York City. I was able to look up photos of the actually buildings so I’d have some idea of what colors to use although I haven’t limited myself just to reality. I’m really enjoying working in this book.
• These pictures from around the world will be a challenge...for sure... Well done book, the individual pictures are great. Nice weight paper and bound well... This is going to be a challenge, but one I look forward to.
• Beautiful pictures of all the landmarks to color. It has lots of pages for you to color and lots of pictures. I recommend this product to whoever enjoys coloring.
• I'm so excited to start coloring this book! The book is great quality. It is very thick and each landmark has a description so that is incredibly neat. I reccomend it 100%.
• Like sketches of pix from around the globe. Bought for my step granddaughter to use to hone her skills w/ colors.
• Best purchase I've made on in quite awhile. This book is fantastic. No expert tools required. I'm just an amateur and I use my 4 year old's colored pencils. The drawings are precise. You can Google image a design and color it to match on your page or go wild with your imagination. I hope the author has a sequel or 5 in mind. I need more of these!!
• Nice quality.
