I Am Still The Fun Killer!

@Furious /Curious has been pestering me to post this, and I finally caved. The fact that I enjoy coloring pretty things doesn't mean I have given up on Killing all the Fun. You should all still quake in fear at the mere mention of my name. Grr.

Anyway, I got 4 coloring books and a nice set of colored pencils in my Solstice swag. This image is actually the second one I did. I'll post the first one later, if Curious makes me. This comes from the Artist's Edition of The Secret Garden. I'm pretty happy with it, but I think I have to do better about planning my colors before I start.

This is gorgeous. I love the colors! (but will return to cowering in abject fear).

That is absolutely gorgeous!  I have just started coloring; I discovered that it slows my mind down at night.  But I'm nowhere near this skilled!

But seriously - well done!  It is lovely.

I, too, quiver in fear in front of the Great and Powerful Oz.... errr.... Fun Killer. 

This is nicely done!  I love the duo colors/shading.  When I find time to do this, I am going to.

Nice job :)

Aw, thanks guys. :embarrassed:

The problem I had is that there are more suitable greens than purples in my set, so there's more repetition in the purple leaves than I would have liked.

Are you happy now, Curious?

It's a few days before New Year's miracle!  ;)

You mean I have to "force" you to post every single one?   I kind of thought was the band-aid was pulled off you'd just start posting them without me having to threaten you each time.

As you already know, I like this one.  I think the colors are just fine, too.  I never have great luck when trying to plan ahead on what colors I want to use because I always mess up somewhere and have to change my plans :) 

I do generally have an idea for what I want the finished page to look like when I'm done.

Would you like to be a member of...um...whatever we are calling the colorists group now so you can post your works here?

For a while I thought maybe the green vine would have purple leaves and vice versa. I'm glad I didn't go that way.

This is beautiful, @happy atheist.  I saw this book recently and stood with it in my hand for ages, tormented about whether to buy it. I thought I would need better quality colouring tools to do it justice, so I put it back. I may have to rethink that decision. I think you've done a unique take on this picture, with gorgeous results. I'm so glad Furious made you post it!

I think it would have looked ok that way, but I am a fan of using different shades of the same color together, so I like the way you did it a little better, I think.

It just makes you scarier because you can fool people with a sweet coloring persona if you wish and then take them unawares.

It's very pretty!  I like the delicate blue butterfly at the bottom the best.

What is this "color planning" of which you speak?  Mine is "oh, that one looks nice, let's try it".  I finally finished one, so I'll try for a picture soon.  My daughter tells me it's better than I think it is.

      Podcast with Jessa and Ben. I think this is the link to an YT alternative so that other couple doesn't get the clicks.

      I live in Europe, in a rural area. Houses are of all kinds of types and styles. I don’t think I have ever visited a house with more than three bathrooms/half baths. Usually no more than two. Master bedrooms en suite are practicality non existent in our area and definitely uncommon in the whole country. So I don’t understand why you need multiple bathrooms in a normal size house. We have two bathrooms and get by fine even when we have two teenagers and a younger child.

      So have we talked about what MacArthur said lately? He said there’s no such thing as ADHD, OCD, and PTSD. It’s all just big pharma trying to medicate everyone and turn them into drug addict on the streets of LA. I swear he said that. If he had been talking about OxyContin, I wouldn’t have batted an eye. But WTF? How could Jinger listen to this garbage and agree? How does she not see the similarities between MacArthur and Gothard?

      I will add that this guy also talked about her being mentally I’ll a lot. Which reminds me so much of Greg Locke. Who used mental illness as an excuse as to why he could divorce his first wife in order to be with the church secretary 🙄 It seems like a lot of pastors like to weaponize mental illness to their own benefit. And honestly if he did groom her and abuse her like many have said, of course she would be depressed. Who wouldn’t? 

      Ugh, my ex (who is now a pastor) tried this. While we were married and he had me under his thumb, he didn’t give a crap about my poor mental health unless it impacted him directly in some way. But after I left, while the divorce was taking place, he had the nerve to tell me that I should’ve been in the hospital a few times over the years. I just looked at him and said, “yeah, ya think?!” He was so shocked that I didn’t get defensive or try to argue, it was really funny. I was just so incensed that *now* he thought I could have used some help, when he was trying to spin me.

      I’m guessing Haley has no idea how to be a godly wife. I bet she couldn’t run her own home. She couldn’t handle cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc. they are just kids playing house.
