Creative Haven Steampunk Designs Coloring Book (Creative Haven Coloring Books)
By: Marty Noble
Rating: 5 of 5
I have been a fan of Steampunk books and other items for a number of years. I really enjoy the what if nature of genre. In this book, the artist Marty Noble, brings that feeling to an adult coloring book. From the edgy use of gears, bolts, wheels, and other instantly recognizable steampunk elements to the beautiful clothes and hair of both the women and men in the designs, this book encapsulates the genre for me. Ms. Noble is a favorite of mine and this book is certainly one that I will enjoy coloring.

As with other Creative Haven coloring books, the pages are perforated for easy removal, are printed on bright white paper, and the designs are on only one side of each page (the back of which is left blank.)
I find that my gel pens and pencils work fine with these pages but when I use markers, I have to test for ink seeping through. If it does, I use freezer paper or cardstock to keep the page beneath from being marred.
This is the first steampunk coloring book I have purchased but it will hopefully not be the last. Ms. Noble is a favorite of mine and this book is certainly one that I will enjoy coloring. I am hoping to see more of this genre in the future.
