Chinese Fashions Color Book,
By Sandy "Kozero's Creations" (Northern California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Chinese Fashions (Dover Fashion Coloring Book) (Paperback)
This is a beautiful coloring book that adults will enjoy as much as children. Ming-Ju Sun does very detailed and delicate renditions. The finished product is frameable, it's so beautiful.
Unfortunately, the paper is not thick enough to use watercolors or color pens, but a good quality pencil -- or water color pencil does a great job. This is one of the high quality Dover Publishing color books that are educational as well as fun.

Delightful,
By labellepersonne (Midwest USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Chinese Fashions (Dover Fashion Coloring Book) (Paperback)
I would say this coloring book would be for someone in their teens or an adult, as there are some intricate designs in it.
The artist does have a little difficulty getting her male models well-proportioned--and quite a few of them came off looking as if their legs were too short for their bodies. However, the women are very attractively drawn and their fashions, are very well done, beautiful and intricate. While the men themselves were sometimes not as well drawn, their fashions were well done and interesting. My only complaint is that this artist has a tendency to want to do some of her designs on the clothes in dotted lines, rather then solid lines--and I found that made it difficult to determine the actual outline of the design and color it correctly.
