Default copic lovers...what images do you like to color?

I see people coloring a lot of images that I would put in a similar catagory...more simple line drawings. I've seen people color

bellas
gingersnaps
anyas
lily and billy
rileys

What else is good to color with copics? I am realizing that I would prefer to color images with built in shading like SU Bloomin Beautiful etc with watercolors. And I have a lot of those, but not a lot of simple line images. What else do you reccomend?

I watched Sherrie Siemens (BC Sherrie) demonstrate Copic markers this weekend. She was explaining how to color an image that was a pretty grungy flower . . . it ended up looking just as fabulous as the other line art images. So pretty!

I like to use Copics to color:

House Mouse
Sarah Kay
Bella's
Whiff of Joy
and most of my SU

I have tried using Copic's with the Thomas Kinkade stamps but I just can't get it right, but I keep working at it.

I like to color most non-solid stamps especially Whipper Snapper stamps & Magnolia "Tilda."

I like to use Copics on some of the more detailed, shaded images from things like the Saturday Evening Post line at CHF. Here's an example from my gallery that shows Copics don't have to be about colouring line art with big areas of solid colour (although I love to do that with them, too!).

Loads of the Kim Hughes stamp designs do have big open areas - something like the new Spring Trees set would be fun and I almost always use Copics if I'm colouring any of the owls!
