I hadn’t checked out the official Kings Island blog in a couple weeks so I thought I’d catch up. They have a downloadable coloring book. This image has me deeply confounded. I can’t tell if it is unintentional irony or a marketing department with an extremely dark and dry, but kind of brilliant sense of humor.

Would the admins approve some sort of coloring contest? Would anyone else want to participate? I think the coloring book is really cool overall and appreciate the free activity from the park. 

A coloring contest would be so fun!   I'd love to see that!

I haven’t used my iPad for graphic programs in a while, figured I’d try to get reacquainted with Procreate. Couldn’t close the gaps in  Woodstock’s head well enough to get a decent fill.  But I had fun.

Is Photoshop considered cheating?

As the coloring book was distributed digitally, I think digital coloring or traditional coloring would both be fair game in a theoretical contest.  It could even be two separate contests.  One for digital coloring and the other for traditional.  As for cheating, It’s not a contest yet so no rules have been established.  I was just trying out some graphics programs I haven’t touched in a while, and Procreate is about the best and most complex digital art application for iOS. At least out of all the ones I have tried. Where’s your coloring page? Lol

Decided to give my hand at the coloring. It was very fun to do! 

@Zexeos Fantastic!  My vision started out more like this, but I had to read the manual to be reminded of how the fill function worked. Which program did you use?  Did you use a computer or tablet?

Thank you, amapan! I used clip studio paint on my ipad with my apple pencil It's a great program, I like it a lot better than procreate honestly. (Seeing as how it's also what I use on my PC lmao! I've very familiar with the program.)

I’m going to check this program out.  Thanks for the advice. And apple pencil is amazing.

No problem, hope you like the app!   And isn't it? I love mine so much. <3

 

I'm also very excited to see if anyone else will color too! This seems like a fun community project to do

I am still stunned that they would use the name procreate for the software.  

When I saw @King Ding Dong had posted in this thread, I was hoping we could color our own Rivertown Freestyle location. 

@King Ding Dong  Could the name possibly be derived from the intention of the program’s use by creative professionals?

@Rivertown Rider  If you have a photograph of your drink stand, you can use Adobe Capture to convert a photograph to a line drawing. I am assuming that is how the park pictures in the coloring book were created.

LMAO that looks better than the official ones in the coloring book!!
