Enchanted Faces: Mermaids, Fairies, & Fantasy Pocket-Sized Coloring Book

Another winner!
Love this book. I have her other main coloring book too. There are a few duplicates but not many (probably like 3- 5 are reprints). I really appreciate this smaller size because it means my gel pens will last longer. And I can color more! And I can take it with me in my purse! The paper is the same quality as her other coloring book which should mean no bleed through. I have yet to color anything as I just got this book a few hours ago. But I'm super excited to get started on it.

The best Hannah Lynn Coloring Book! Pocket sized is the best size
This is the smaller pocket sized book from Hannah Lynn. To be honest this is my favorite! I love the smaller size :D. It makes it a little easier to get the page done a little faster. The pages have been zoomed in rather than just shrunk down, so you don't have the irritatingly small details that are hard to color in.Hannah Lynn's work is awesome and I just can't get enough of her books!! You can't go wrong with this cute book!!You get 50 pictures of cute girls to color. They all have a ton of hair so lots of practice with hair and skin!The pages are white, thin, single sided and non perforated.If you use wet medium the paper might buckle.If you use Copics, Sharpies, or Bic Mark-Its it will bleed through so I recommend putting some printer paper behind your coloring page so you don't ruin the other pages.Water based markers work good as well as gel pens and pencils.The girls are drawn with thick black lines so when I use pencils it makes the thick black lines look smudged so I go over them with a black marker or ink pen when I'm finished. But make sure to take your time and let it dry or it will smudge!!!There is enough detail so it takes a couple hours to finish a picture but not so many details that it will take you days!

This book does not disappoint!
Very fun Hannah Lynn book. I have come to expect nothing but the best from her work and this book does not disappoint! One of the nice things about this book is that it is small, about 5 x 7 rather than 8 x 10. This way, I can finish a picture in one evening, or in one sitting or so to speak. It is a travel size, which also makes it handy. The pictures are absolutely beautiful and stunning. I have lots of places in this book to practice shading faces, and even some arms and legs, great practice and a lot of fun. I recommend this book to everyone!

I adore Hannah Lynn coloring books.
Oh, my gosh. This artist is *so much fun* to color. I can't stress this enough. I love these girls!Everyone else here has already told you about the paper and shown you the pages, so all I can say is that for some reason, I find these girls to be an absolute joy to work on!I religiously buy the books of a few different artists who specialize in 'girls' for lack of a better way of putting it--Tanya Bond, Selena Fenech, heck, even Marty Noble and Ming-Ju Sun. These are my favorite girl book artists and they all do my favorite girl books.Out of all these wonderful, amazing, talented artists, for some reason I like Hannah Lynn's girls the most. I love doing their hair and their eyes. It's great that the eyes are so huge, because you can make them ridiculously stunning. I really enjoy the vaguely fairytale look some of the girls seem to have, and I really love the girls who veer into folktale territory. Her girls with wolves are so lovely.I work with colored pencil (Polys and Prismas) almost exclusively and the pages hang nicely to the pigments. One picture to a page. Buy now, buy all of them, you'll smile the whole time!

I Love this character so much!
I have the the regular size version of this book but I also wanted to the travel size to put in my travel kit along with my other travel supplies.p in my travel bag! I love this particular book because it’s perfect for practicing face coloring or even painting if you copy the image onto watercolor paper! It’s also good for learning or experimenting with hair color combinations!

One of the most fun coloring books, out there.
I have both coloring books, by Hannah Lynn. The drawings are absolutely adorable! Each image is printed on one side. And though this book is considered a pocketbook sized book, the details are not lost. I was concerned about how difficult it might be, for my older eyes. But there was nothing to be concerned about. The details are easy to see and easy to color. I may need to get me a spare copy of this one.

Nice pictures but poor paper and binding
Paper is really thin and has a rough texture. It makes it hard to use colored pencils as blending doesn't work well. Since it is single sided you can use marker on it which is how I'm using it as long as you have two sheets of paper underneath to prevent the bleed through to the next page. The book is glue bounded making it hard to open flat and hard to color the part of the picture close to the spine. So I have to keep it held open with one hand. The book is not perforated so pages cannot be removed easily. Pictures are cute and gives you a lot of opportunity to practice skin tones.

really cute, small but perfect. great coloring book for any age..
super cute.. she has some really cutie little girls in this coloring book but with this little pocket like book it centers more on the faces of the girls.. I like it because I am really into art these days and I am taking all these workshops. so I am drawing faces. with her coloring book it is helping me to learn to shade and find my own style of art for a face. I love this book because it is so different and cute.. if you have had her other coloring books its not much different from those just that it is a bit smaller and like I said she focus's on the faces more the bodies and such.. still a great coloring book.

Faces and hair.
I brought this book at full price for my personal collection. I colour purely as a hobby, one that I put an incredible amount of time and effort in to.Enchanted Faces is a beautiful pocket sized colouring book containing 50 images, while the largest portion of each illustration is dedicated to the face and hair of each girl the majority have a background element. The slightly more intricate backgrounds contain animals ranging from a baby dragon and a unicorn to tigers and birds. Each illustration is single sided, as the paper is fairly thin you'll need multiple layers of paper between to guarantee markers and fineliners not staining the next image.The book is 5.25 x 8, while small each image has used almost all space available. The images are also surrounded by borders so there are no spine issues!I'm a very slow relaxed colourer, so I spent multiple hours on each image practicing skin shading techniques and this book was perfect for that.

Nice
Ok, if you like colouring faces, then this is perfect for you, because it's just a book of 50 girls faces. They're all similar, so, as my brother puts it..." Once you've seen one, you've seen them all" but i like the book, the pictures are simple and if you just want to do a quick colouring session, and not spend days on it, then it's perfect for that. I can pretty much have on finished in an hour or two, so that's quite satisfying. The majority of my other colouring books are so detailed, it's normal to spend a week on just one picture, so this was a refreshing change of pace, but because the pictures are so similar, it's possible to become bored with it. Up till now, ive enjoyed thinking up different hair and eye colours, you can use the whole spectrum here, no limits. The book is also ideal if you want to take it out with you, it's only roughly 13x20 cm, so fits into a bag really well, so if you're been invited to a really boring function, just whip this out and start colouring under the table! I also like the fact that the pictures are printed one side only, so you can use felt tips without worrying about bleedthrough, and each picture is surrounded by a border, which finishes each image off nicely. The paper is smooth and white, but on the thin side, but haven't had any problems with it. It's a good book to add to my ever growing collection.

Enchated Faces a beautiful book
Beautiful little pocket size book, perfect for when you want to take colouring travelling with you, or if you just feel like colouring something smaller rather than a full sized page and won't take as long if you don't have much time. All the pictures are fantasy themed and are all in Hannah Lynn's style. I plan to purchase the full size version of this book at a later date but for now the pocket size one will keep me busy. Very happy with the book

Love it.
I'm new to the world of colouring, so this is my first colouring book, I love it, the images are so cute, I think I will definitely be buying more Hannah Lynn books, I've included a pic of my first completed page, I used markers and prismacolor pencils, also added a bit of sparkle with my wink of Stella, word of advice I use a piece of thick card to put behind when I'm colouring, the pens do bleed through, but no problem of it going onto your next page with the piece of card, the book is a nice size, not too big.

Great compact size book
Such a fab collection of girls to colour, I especially like the compact size of the book. The paper used is very good quality and works extremely well with my Prismacolor Pencils.
