Harry Potter Colouring Book: An official colouring book

The artwork is fantastic

Excellent.

Covers a range of characters, scenes and things from the Harry Potter world starting from the Dursley's House and ending with the Battle of Hogwarts. A nice mix of patterns, pictures of scenes from the films/books and pictures of artefacts to colour in. Paper quality is good for pencils. I colour in with pencils and have had no problems, but I imagine that heavy felt tip use would bleed through. There are borders around some of the pictures which adds in small intricate spaces to colour, as well as larger spaces on the main pictures. The pictures are easy to recognize from the films/books. I like the fact that the Triwizard Tournament and those schools have been included, not just pictures of the main characters. Obviously there are a quite a few pictures of Harry, Hermoine and Ron in the book, but also some of the Hogwart's teachers, Hagrid, Voldemort, Lucius Malfoy, students and more. There are also, wands, a sneakoscope, creatures such as Fawkes the phoenix and Dobby to colour in. Overall, an excellent colouring book. If you are into adult colouring books and Harry Potter you must buy this!

I really like this book. After reading quite a few reviews at first I was very put off so I went to sample the book in-store. The book I saw was, like many of the reviews stated, printed on a yellowish parchment paper. HOWEVER, when I ordered from here my book is printed in your typical stark white paper. I do have to mention that, yes, it is printed back-to-back and the paper feels like mildly shiny printer paper. It is suitable for use with quality colouring pencils only and you can press on it to a fair degree without tears. I do not recommend you scrub at it and you need to get quality pencils for the colours to come out properly as it is printer paper, not art paper. I would definitely not use any form of felt tip, watercolour or ink-related equipment with this book. The quality of the pictures is good, however, the perspective of them is a little off like someone wanted to get some basic images out and got bored towards the end so they filled in the blanks a bit. Some photos are beautiful, especially the one of Dumbledore holding Harry as a baby, but others look slightly warped and some of the faces are not so distinct. You could say it's not amazing and in some places even a little sloppy. The pictures are 100% based from the film, you can see character's facial features enough to recognise most and in the back it comes with photographs of some of the work. Variety of pictures? not amazing. It starts off strong and in places it pulls out some stronger more complex and lovely images, but many are filled pages with extra badges or just low quality and basic designs. I would recommend this more for adults. It can take 2+ hours to properly colour one of the full A4 detailed pages.

It is fair to say you cannot ignore the ongoing 'Adult colouring in' craze at the moment, it intrigues me greatly, I, like many others, I'm sure, have tried to ignore it, but it is easier said than done. However since the build up to the Christmas period it definitely played in my favour, it turns out these books make the ideal Christmas present for all adults of all ages. I brought this Harry Potter adult colouring in themed book to gave as a secret Santa Christmas present for my Harry Potter fan, sixteen year old, art student Saturday girl work colleague. We work together in a toy shop and sell a range of colouring in books for very young children and those older children, through this work we already knew there were many a adult who brought colouring in books for themselves before this craze 'Got big'! (With the introduction of Adult Colouring books it now allows these people to buy these books with pride!) We had previously discussed the power of 'colouring in' and how it makes a great distraction from the 'real world' and creates a sense of calm and mindfulness. Since receiving this gift she has reported back on how it has been fantastic relaxation tool for her and maybe too much of a distraction from her 'real art' work and a little bit addictive and not wanting to stop and 'must finish each page'! She loved it, and still talks about it now (feb)! She love the characters pages and especially the 'poster style' designs. As a non Harry Potter fan I thought it looked really attractive both on the inside and out and the illustrations are of great detail and the pages (paper) are great quality. I have seen this book in many other retailers but at the time of purchase it was a great price too compared to those over the Christmas period. I would recommend this book to any Harry Potter fan of any age and even those who are not as familiar with the books/films. I am very pleased with my purchase a will definitely look into to buying others for myself and other friends.

Really detailed and great pictures to colour. Keeps them entertained for a long time. Lasts a while.

Very good

Lovely colouring book of harry potter

The pages are cream colour and fairly thick but seepage from some types of ink through the paper is also possible. Some issues with the layout of the several illustrations covering the two-page spreads, making colouring difficult due to the center book binding. There are original full colour photos and pictures section from the movie scenes at the end of the book for colouring reference to imitate or follow. A nice book for HP fans with many wonderful graphical illustrations.

Totally love it. Such detailed sketches. Makes colouring so much more fun.

Szczegółowe kolorowanki, solidne wykonanie. Fajnie, że obrazki zostały pogrupowane w kolejności chronologicznej.

正直、すごくかわいい！とは思わないのですが、ハリーポッター好きの娘には 大変ツボらしく、『このぬりえ、ほんとうにいいよねえ。どうやってつくったんだろう』と、塗るだけではなく、映画のシーンを回想したりもして楽しんでいます。

Très jolie livre de coloriage, avec des décors à colorier féeriques!!! Les fans d’Harry Potter apprecieront. Nous l’avons offert à une petite fille de 10 ans qui a adoré !
