Colour Your Classic Car – The Coloring Book You Want!

Those of us who have kids are likely to be overwhelmed with coloring books at home. And really, coloring books are great – they keep little kids occupied while teaching them basic artistic skills. But if you’re like me it’s likely that you found something wrong with most kids’ coloring books. If the book features cars, planes, construction equipment, the kind of stuff that a techy parent is likely to care about, it’s likely that there is something wrong with it. It’s either the size, the anonymity of the portrayed vehicle, or just clear technical mistakes. Sometimes those are intentional and sometimes they are not, but always disappointing. 
Colour Your Classic Car, by Francois Rousse, is different. Not only does it feature 62 classic, or relatively modern classic, cars that are technically correct, it also features period correct settings for each vehicle. Check out more images after the jump. 


The 128-page book is being marketed “for adults” which makes period correct PG-13 settings fine. Each vehicle also gets a brief description on the opposite page. The book is printed on high-quality thick paper and special glue binding allows for cutting out of your completed drawing and possibly framing it. 

Because it is a European book, as evidenced by the word “colour”, it features mostly Europeans cars. Those include Alfa Romeo, Alpine, Austin-Healey, BMW, Citroen, DeLorean, Fiat, Ford, Hillman, Jaguar, Lotus, Matra, Mercedes-Benz, Opel, Peugeot, Renault, Rover, Saab, Simca, Volvo, VW, and many others. 

The book is published by Delius Klasing and has been available since December 26, 2016. ISBN is 9783667108357 and it is currently available on Amazon for under five bucks!
