I had previously seen the graphic novel Lady Mechanika and absolutely loved the art work that lined the pages. The story did not even matter, it was just so pretty and I eat up anything Steampunk.

That being said, the images are beautiful and this is a coloring book which begs me to fill in the pages with my interpretation of the scenes. Just look at this illustration below, how could I not want to color it.

So any way, I received a digital copy to look through from Netgalley and Diamond Book Distributors and after fangirling over the art I had to purchase a copy for my very own. And I discovered a second one! I am a huge coloring book fan as well as steampunk, and this is the perfect blend of both.

Someone read my thoughts and made them happen. #ladymechanika #adultcolouringbooks This is so helpful for planning cosplay costumes.

This is a a pretty straightforward coloring book - all the art is by the same artist that does the regular comic books and I think some of them are even covers or alternate covers from the series, so you definitely know what you're getting beforehand. The only major problem I have is that the NetGalley version is a protected pdf so I can't print from it, and there isn't a link or anything at the end to download it like there are with most of the free coloring ebooks I've grabbed off Kindle. I suppose I can take a few screenshots and print them out that way, but it's not very convenient.
