Hand colored with colored pencils: Emerald Octobans

in Rising Star Game15 days ago

Dear friends, today I hand-colored the Emerald Octobans deck. You can find it identified by the number i334. This is one of the newest instrument decks in the game and one of the most recently released among the regular instruments. I've heard that Octobans are also known as tube toms in some places, but in my country they're not widely known by that name.

By the way, these are drums; they have a cylinder-like shape and are small compared to other drums. What stands out most about them is their long bottom end. This makes them stand out from the other drums. According to my research, two are commonly played together, but in many places up to eight are played in parallel. It's like a small drum kit made of these small drums.

This i334 deck has an emerald green material, I assume it's fiberglass or something similar. They are beautiful. Coloring and drawing this by hand had its challenges, but I was finally able to finish it.

I'd love for you to see it. I always write the name of the instrument on a blank sheet of paper and then write the identification number next to it. By doing this first, I don't have to add them later. I then use my ruler to box the name so that there's a line above and below it, creating a bar. The size of the bar will determine the size of the deck's base.

Here I show you how I colored each area of ​​the deck.

The Octobans still need to be colored, for them I used an emerald green color and a black marker to highlight each part.

Before I say goodbye, I'll show you some of the materials used and the finished drawing. It was interesting to draw the Emerald Octobans, and even more so to learn a little about them when I researched them. Did you also know them? Hugs.
