Make a kids coloring book from one idea

Three kinds of coloring book

• Coloring book: a page of its own for every picture, all around one theme.
• Mandalas and patterns: round and repeating patterns, from simple shapes to rich detail.
• Story coloring book: a little adventure to color, page by page, with the same characters throughout.

From idea to PDF

1. Idea: a sentence about the theme or character. Choose an age group and a page count, from 4 to 48 pages.
2. Plan: every page gets a scene. Recurring characters are drawn first as reference pictures, so they look the same on every page.
3. Pictures: each page is drawn as black line art on white and checked for the right characters, grey shading and heavy black areas.
4. Check: look through every page and redraw any that miss.
5. Download: an A4 or US Letter PDF for home printing, or a paperback interior for Amazon KDP with a separate full-wrap cover.

House rules

• Original characters only. Well-known character names are blocked.
• Age settings are starting points, not developmental rules. You can change them.
• Every step that draws or plans uses credits, and the app shows the cost before it starts. You pay once per book; see pricing.
