  • Line only: clean outlines with no shading
  • Color guide: one finished way to color it, to keep on your screen

The grayscale and line-only pages come in US Letter (8.5 x 11 in) and A4. Each file opens with a cover and a contents page. 5 PDF files, instant download.

How it works

Each drawing sits inside a clean shape with plenty of white space, and small corner marks show the 7 x 9 inch print. Print at 100% (Actual size), color it, then trim at the corner marks: the print fits a standard 8 x 10 frame.

A gift for a colorist

The files arrive the moment the order goes through, so it works as a last-minute gift. Or color a page yourself, frame it and give it: a finished page in an 8 x 10 frame makes a handmade present. Or send a Nibfern gift card and let them choose.

How the drawings are made: each Nibfern drawing is assisted by AI, made under close art direction, checked against reference photos for anatomy and structure, and cleaned line by line before release.

These drawings also appear in Quiet Ocean, a paperback in the Nibfern Quiet Coloring Series.

Questions

How do I get my files?

As soon as your order goes through, the confirmation page shows a Download link for each file. The same links arrive by email from our checkout partner Fourthwall (no-reply@fourthwall.com), with the subject “Your order … download is ready!” If it isn't in your inbox, look in Promotions or spam. Each file can be downloaded up to 25 times.

Can I print from my phone or iPad?

Yes. Tap Download, open the PDF, then tap Share and Print. Pick the US Letter file for Letter paper or the A4 file for A4, so each page prints full size with its corner marks. A computer gives you the most print settings, and the links in the email work on any device.

What paper should I print on?

Plain printer paper works for colored pencils. For alcohol markers, print on a heavier paper or cardstock your printer can take, and test a stroke on a spare sheet first. Print at 100% (Actual size) so the corner marks land where they should.

Will it fit a frame?

Yes. Each drawing has small corner marks for a 7 x 9 inch print. Trim at the marks and it fits a standard 8 x 10 frame.

Can I use the Procreate set in other apps?

Yes. The line layer is a transparent PNG and the gray and color guides are JPGs, so they open in any layer-based drawing app.

Can I get a refund?

If you haven't downloaded the files yet, you can cancel within 30 days for a full refund. Once a file has been downloaded, the order can no longer be refunded. Write to info@nibfern.com and we'll help.

Who handles the payment?

Checkout is run by Fourthwall, which takes the payment and adds any US sales tax. Your card details go to Fourthwall's payment processor and never to us.
