First time coloring with pure color pencils, mineral spirits and stumps. Maybe after making 100 of those for the Regional on Friday (yes, I am officially crazy) I will get the hang of it!

Mineral spirits help you blend colored pencils, that you can otherwise not blend: e.g. Metallic Pencils, Pure colored pencils.... Just buy some blending stumps (Michaels or other hobby stores) dip it into the mineral spirits and blend your colors together in a circular motion.
