Chibi Girls: An Adult Coloring Book with Adorable Anime Characters, Fun Manga Animals, and Delightful Fantasy Scenes for Relaxation Paperback – May 9, 2017

This coloring book has great pictures and very detailed coloring pages

The media could not be loaded. This is my second Chibi Girls coloring book by Jade Summer (note that this is not a duplicate of the first one of the same title). There are 25 different designs (with 2 copies of each design for a total of 50 coloring pages.) The designs are cute fantasy girls are drawn in manga style with full backgrounds. The designs are quite detailed and some contain small areas to color. The designs; however, are not what I consider intricate and difficult to color.The word chibi is a Japanese slang term for small person. The cuties in this book are small but have beautiful big eyes and lots of personality. The designs put the girls in many scenarios, including a ballerina, a witch, a steampunk girl, a Roman warrior, an Egyptian princess and much more.While you can have access to .PDFs when you purchase this book, my review is based on the book as it is received from Amazon. That way you will know what the pages look like and how they accept color. I like that the publisher provides the digital version as well so you can choose the paper you wish to use and/or to color the pictures as many times as you choose.This is what I found while coloring in this book and testing the paper with my coloring medium:25 x 2 each fun Chibi girl designs for a total of 50 coloring pagesDesigns are printed on one side of the pagePaper is typical of CreateSpace: white, thin, slightly rough and non-perforated. The back of the page is printed black.The designs do not merge into the binding. There is a heavy framing line at the outer edges of the design to give the project a more finished look, especially for framing.Glue Binding (there is room to cut the pages out if you choose to do so.)Though you cannot see the bleed-through easily due to the back of the page being printed in black, I recommend the use of a blotter page when working in this book. I use a page of card stock or several sheets of heavyweight paper under my working page. It keeps seeping ink and marring dents from ruining the pages below.Alcohol-based markers bleed through the page quickly.Water-based markers bleed through in spots.Gel pens and India ink pens leave shadows on back of the page. India ink can bleed through if you apply heavily or multiple coats.Coloring Pencils work well with this paper. I found that I could layers the same color for deeper pigment or multiple colors and I could blend easily using a blending stick. I tested both oil and wax based pencils. I also found that hard lead pencils leave dents through the paper.

I like the cute pictures of this book and the fact that you get 2 of each one. This is good if you want to share or try coloring the pictures differently. What I did not like about the book is the paper. I think I've heard it called "creative space"paper.. it's kinda of like one step up from copier paper but with a lot of tooth. I felt I had to work the pencil more than I like to. I gave 4 stars because I love the pictures and they are fun to color.

Beautiful and detailed

I love this book. I get it for Christmas. I was surprised to find out the pages are black on the back of the pages to prevent bleeding. I was also shocked to find out it was a double book. so I get 2 of every picture. Biggest surprise of all is the fact I get a code for the PDF of the book and can print as many pages as I want. One of my best Christmas presents. I also love the pictures that came in side. I am a big anime fan and it is very hard to find well made Anime coloring books. I am so happy with my books.

This book is full of adorable Chibi Girls in different situations. I haven't had the chance to color many yet but did attach the one that I did do. Jade Summer book almost always have two of each coloring in their books and also a free download from their web site, so you can color your favorites as many times as you wish. The paper in the book is thinner than I like but the pages all have black backs to help with bleed through. I own several Jade Summer books and have enjoyed coloring in every one of them.

I'm so happy I ordered this coloring book. The pictures are cute and have a nice amount of detail. I had never ordered a Jade Summer book before and wasn't sure what to expect. It has pictures on one side of the page and black on the back. It has the standard coloring book paper but of course no color shows through due to the black color on the back. I think I will however, use my standard printer paper behind the pages as I color. I'm very happy with my purchase!

El libro es muy bonito, pero hay que tener en cuenta que cada dibujo se repite al final del libro. Por lo demás todo genial, por detras son hojas de color negro.

cuteness! I was looking for a coloring book that I could use my bright florescent gel pens and this is it. nice thick paper lined with black so colors don't bleed through. quite detailed for adult coloring. Double copies of each pic and an access code to download as many copies of the pics as you like so you can color them over and over. makes for good value for your money. pics include everything from mermaids to ballerinas to cowgirls and pirates. lots of variety. Am very happy with this beautiful quality book.

Great book! The pages are single sides and good quality. Love the style. Also happy that I can download the book in PDF.

Molto bello, carta spessa e non male la resa con i pennarelli. I disegni sono molto belli e ben dettagliati.Peccato che i disegni si ripetono. A metà ripartono con il primo

Another beautiful book from Jade Summer, I’ve got a few of her other books and I love them all, this one definitely didn’t disappoint. Lots of cute Chibi girls dressed up as lots of different characters, there’s a mermaid, an Indian princess, a biker, an Egyptian and many more. All of the pictures are single sided and completely black on the other side so you don’t have to worry about your ink going through and ruining the next picture if you’re using pens. There are also two of each picture in the book just like all of Jade’s other books so if you mess one up or you want to do it completely different then you can.
