I love these glossy fish they really trick your brain into believing that there are extra super shiny made of glass! You do a wonderful job on them! I am enjoying watching the how to series!thank you again!
Everyone colors differently. I love detail but I also love things that are different. These fish are so cute and I love the way you colored them. Now I can practice with your video. I just need the white pen. Keep up the good work and keep coloring for us.....♥️
I’m kinda late to the party but so glad I found you! I struggle horribly with depression, anxiety & panic attacks and have been trying to put pen (pencil) to paper for over a year BUT your video gave me the confidence to do so and I’m amazed at the results 🤭 I can’t thank you enough. Your work is beautiful & has been inspirational for me. Of course I’ve subscribed 😄 and can’t wait to check out your other videos. Warmest wishes to you and yours from Scotland xx
I love your colorful fish. I really like you technique of coloring in the fish with the details of each fish still showing through. Thanks for sharing and inspiring.
I love how you colored these fish. I will try to do this page similarly. This book has too much detail to color for my taste, but I like that you colored the entire fish with different shades that blend together seamlessly.
Thank you! 😊 I wasn't a fan of the detail as well, so I decided to give my fishes more of a glassy look! Loved the results! Glad you liked it! Please, share with me once you're done on instagram (@davlinaart) or my Facebook group: m.facebook.com/groups/colorAlongWithDavlina/ I would love to see your work 😊
Beautiful work, I love this book too. I've done some fish similar to this and instead of plain white gel pen, I use a pearly white gel pen, gives extra shine
davlina i enjjoy your videos very much. i have all of johanna's gorgeous books and i will be following your colouring tutorials diligently. i have already spent hours witing down some of your methods already so i can refer to them while i am colouring in my comfy chair! i documented for the fish and background in lost ocenand the leaves and flowers in secret grden, so far. thanks, nicely done. shell
+Michele Martin Thank you so much! I'm glad my tutorials were helpful. If you have time, follow me in my color along series...........and share how your pages turn out :)
Oh thank you! After coloring for a while now, putting colors together comes kinda easily to me. I do get stuck sometimes, at which time, I usually look at the color wheel, or google for a picture of a "fish" for example. That gives me ideas on what to use next. I hope that helped!
Another great tutorial. Thank you so much. I'm loving all that you do and have developed a notebook where I write down what picture I'm coloring and the name of the colors I used. I think maybe that will come in handy.
Amazing! I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't watched you do it. Can't wait to give it a try. Thx so much for showing the colors you're using. So many tutorials leave that out, and color combos are very important! Thx again and I'm subscribing!
+Davlina Art I've not been able to do this consistently. I do love the color combinations you use, I've made note of those, they're great. I'll keep practicing.
Oh i'm sorry to hear that........make sure you use a black pencil at the edges like I did. That makes a big difference. Send me your attempts on my Facebook page if that's ok with you.
how do you get your white gel pen to go over the pencil so easily? I have the same one and it is hard to get it to work smoothly over the prismacolor pencils.
I have that problem sometimes. Try them on another paper and when the gel starts coming out smoothly, then use them over your picture. Hope that helps!
I have found another way to get a really nice glossy glittery feel. When you are done coloring, go over your picture with clear glitter nail Polish, It will make it look shiny and glittery, or you can use clear nail Polish without the glitter. You can use other brushes to just make dots and speckles with the nail Polish.
I get some comments that love that I don't speak, and some that want me to speak. I might consider doing it....one day. In the meantime, I hope you get some value from my videos 😊
Davlina Art yes the poster means a rubber. It gives a very realistic gleam. I use the Derwent battery eraser. I first thought why on earth would anyone use a battery eraser apart from dexterity issues. It is so good, in particular for doing this sort of thing. I was going to post an example but there is no way to do this.you erase away part of the colour.
+Bluebutterflydragon I mainly use the Prismacolor Premiere 48 pack, but I use some colors from Prismacolor Scholar 48 pack as well. I bought them both from amazon, Here are the affiliate links to both: Premiere: amzn.to/1OExnoo Scholar: amzn.to/25aN0eR
+Bluebutterflydragon You're very welcome! If you have some money to spare and want to buy just one set that contains all the colors mentioned above, you could buy the 150 pack from amazon. Here is the affiliate link to that: amzn.to/1To6cP2 Happy coloring! Don't hesitate to share your work on my facebook page :)
Do .pencils bleed through? I am currently involved in bible journaling and love the colors of these but so many pens I have found bleed through to the next page as they are so thin
I used prismacolor pencils for coloring and uniball signo white gel pen for the line. Both of them don't bleed through. Here are the affiliate links if you wish to buy them: Prismacolor Pencils - amzn.to/29Bue7w Uniball white gel pen - amzn.to/29Bu7ZD I also have a video showing all the tools that I use. Check it out for more info. Here is the link: ruclips.net/video/8ajBYvP2QCk/видео.html Hope that helps.
I was looking for a way to create the glassy / gem look. I wasn't able to do that by coloring in the details. Thank you for taking the time to watch my video and I always welcome any feedback. Happy Coloring!
pesto12601 Just as well it wasn't done for you then. Maybe you live in Arizona and have never seen a fish in real life Most of the detail you can't see until the light reflects off of certain parts. I think the fish look a lot closer to life than most people do for the reason that you find a negative but it is always going to be hard to please someone who only sees a fish when it's covered in bread crumbs.
Gurney McBuzzin So many assumptions this makes me chuckle... not only do you know WHERE I live apparently.. but you also know my DIET and FOOD choices too! AMAZING! Hey... care to tell me who is going to win the Super Bowl this year Schwarmy? I want to place a bet in Vegas and win some money so I can buy a BIG ole fish tank and just sit and observe how they REALLY look "to life"... Thx in advance McB!
Not a problem. I try not to speak in my videos and let my work do the talking. If I feel the need to say something.......I write it on the screen. Let me know if you have specific questions you would like to ask me. Happy Coloring :)
0mg I just followed your tutorial and I'm pretty pleased with it!! I bet you already follow me on. iminstagram, but if u wanna DM me your Instagram handle, I'll tag u in it so you can see!:)
Oh and “ wanted to ask you, I saw a tutorial where some one used a dab of baby oil like you did the gamsol... nor for this picture, but I use very little, gamsol less "oily?" when used?
I'm not sure, please tag me so i can see your work! Yes, i've heard of people using "baby oil". I personally didn't like it precicely because of the oiliness and it would ruin the other pictures on the book. I just use "gamsol". But my new love is "soft pastels". They are very easy to use and quick. I've several videos where I use that for my backgrounds.
so I just went to Blicks art store and picked up some pastels, gamsol and yes MORE pencils lol. so I asked, the reason you want to not use baby oil is because although an oil, gamsol has alcohol in it, so the oil isn't as greasy, nwont go thru ur paper as easy:)

+Michele Martin Thank you so much! I'm glad my tutorials were helpful. If you have time, follow me in my color along series...........and share how your pages turn out :)
How do you decide on your colors? You put together colors I wouldn't necessarily think of, and your combinations are so great!
Oh thank you! After coloring for a while now, putting colors together comes kinda easily to me. I do get stuck sometimes, at which time, I usually look at the color wheel, or google for a picture of a "fish" for example. That gives me ideas on what to use next. I hope that helped!
Amazing! I would normally be afraid not to follow the original lines and just color over them but it looks so cool :)
:) Thank you! I took a chance and was very happy with them!
Another great tutorial. Thank you so much. I'm loving all that you do and have developed a notebook where I write down what picture I'm coloring and the name of the colors I used. I think maybe that will come in handy.
Thank you Jana Dean!
Do whatever helps make the process easy! Happy Coloring!
Wow. the pigmentation in the Prisma colouring pencils is so impressive
Yes it is!
:-) Love your fish by the way!
Thank you Mikayla!

This is a really cool technique. Thank you very much for sharing. Have a nice day :-)
Thank you!
I love this its beautiful.Can i do this whit gelpens?
Thank you! Try it with one fish and see if it works.
Amazing!
Thank you!
These look amazing! I tried and it just looks like a red fish with a white strip on it LOL I guess I'm gonna have to practice!
+Jean Strong Thank you! lol, you made me laugh. Try and try again. If you want, you can send me your pic and i can tell you how to change it.
+Davlina Art ok I'll post it comments on your Facebook page thank you!!
+Davlina Art *squeaks happily* I got it! Well, at least once, I put it in the comments on your fb page because I don't know how to send it here. :D
Interesting ideas
Thank you!
Awesome work what type of pencils are you using?
Prismacolor Coloring Pencils!
Can I ask why did you use the black ballpoint on the red fish?
I didn't have a black gel pen when i did this picture so I just picked a black pen that I had near me :)
how do you get your white gel pen to go over the pencil so easily? I have the same one and it is hard to get it to work smoothly over the prismacolor pencils.
I have that problem sometimes. Try them on another paper and when the gel starts coming out smoothly, then use them over your picture. Hope that helps!

I wish you would add narration to all your wonderful videos
I get some comments that love that I don't speak, and some that want me to speak. I might consider doing it....one day.
In the meantime, I hope you get some value from my videos 😊
have you tried Derwent and Norton water color pencil? if you did, which one would you prefer?
Sorry, I can't be of any help............I have not tried either of them.
Just a thought but if you used a rubber instead of the white pen for highlights, it might give an even more realistic look. Great work by the way.
When you say rubber, do you mean if i erased the color. I'm not sure what you mean :)
Thank you for watching and liking my work!
Davlina Art yes the poster means a rubber. It gives a very realistic gleam. I use the Derwent battery eraser.

I was going to post an example but there is no way to do this.you erase away part of the colour.
Davlina Art Sorry I missed your reply.. Capyboppy is correct.Just erase part of the colour and the Derwent is a great eraser for this.
I see, thank you +capybobby and +Gurney McBuzzin!

Can anyone tell me what the last blue on the 3rd fish is please? It looks like 123 which I know is wrong and I can't make out the color.
423
Yes it is PC-423

thanks so much"
Sorry.. but its too dark for me... you are obliterating the details underneath by using too heavy a hand when coloring.
I was looking for a way to create the glassy / gem look. I wasn't able to do that by coloring in the details.
Thank you for taking the time to watch my video and I always welcome any feedback. Happy Coloring!
pesto12601 Just as well it wasn't done for you then. Maybe you live in Arizona and have never seen a fish in real life Most of the detail you can't see until the light reflects off of certain parts.

too dark for me also and I do know what fish look like. Have you ever seen a rainbow trout?
well... I'm sure McB will tell you that you don't... to each their own I suppose....
I can't hear what you are saying at all
I am not saying anything. I'm just showing you how I color.
Ok I am sorry. I thught I heard you talking. Please forgive me. I am new at this Internet on my tablet
