Spiroglyphics Rock Heroes

I love adult coloring books and all of the various color by number, paint by sticker, picture puzzle, etc. variations that have come out since the coloring book craze started. One of my favorite things in this genre has been the Spiroglyphics: Rock Heroes book.This book is great quality. It's an over-sized book measuring in at nearly 12"x12". The book has a great quality feel right from the start, with thick, heavier paper, one-sided puzzles and a great instructions section (although this is not needed - but if you want to get creative, check out these few pages). There are 20 puzzles, each with a recognizable rock hero - Elton John, Axl Rose, Prince, Janis Joplin, Bob Dylan and my favorite, Stevie Nicks. Not all of these are "rock" stars - you have Beyonce in the mix here.The puzzles are two spirals, joined in the middle, and it's your job to start at one end or the other and color them in, so that you will soon see who your rock star is. You can cheat and look in the back to see who you are coloring, or you can wait and be surprised as your puzzle starts to come to life. You can use a black marker or regular pencil or you can experiment a bit and use colored markers or pencils.These are not difficult puzzles but will probably be too challenging for younger coloring fans. The puzzles are fun and I found myself wanting to buy another Spiroglyphics book by the time I had just two puzzles completed in this book. I highly recommend it for coloring or doodling fans of all ages over the age of about 10 or so.

This book was worth the long wait! After looking at the book and starting the first page another one was ordered. Speaking from the proud collector of all his books this one is the best. Please make more lots and lots more. The pictures in this book remind me of a record. As you color them in you start to see there’s a reason for all this craziness. My husband thought my purchase of a book of circles was crazy! When finished you have created by the help of this wonderful artist with an amazing eye for creativity a really cool portrait of a famous person. The hubby was even impressed. Being the owner of a HUGE collection of coloring books as well as puzzle books he’s never thought any of them were cool. Oh but this one he loved! There’s so many different ways to color the pictures. You need to buy this book even 2 because your going to love it. This book is impressive also by the good quality of paper used. If you own any of his other books you will know what great quality and care that these books are made with. This is my own opinion not a paid opinion. My love for this book was not bought it is given freely.

I had fun not knowing what the picture was until it was finished

takes two permanent black markers to complete, have to be far away to see the picture completely, but some of the rock heros look pretty decent

I got it just for Prince and I am not sorry. Took me 4 hours. It gets very zen as you go, great if you want a zone out project.Querkles (same author) are also amazing!

Really fun. I like not looking at the back to see what person it is and just letting it reveal itself. I hope he makes more of these with different people, I will continue to buy them.

This is a most amazing way to spend time. I hope to see more of these books.

Love it! This coloring book is different and slightly challenging. It i always nice to try something different.

I finished every picture in this book. When held at a distance the pictures are pretty amazing to say your just colouring a spiral.Lines weren't too thin. I used cheap black ball point pens because it takes about 1 pen per picture . I tried doing one in red but it just didn't look so good.I would recommend this.

This intrigued me so when it was reduced I thought I’d give it a try and I’m glad I did. It’s very different from any other colouring book, the picture gets revealed as you colour the spiral. The pages are thick enough to stand up to my black gel pen without leaking through. Check out Thomas Pavitte’s other books as they are just as unique and well worth trying, Querkles is such a joy to colour.

This is s great way to spend an hour or two, concentrating on these pictures. A steady hand is required as these are more tricky than Thomas Pavitte's previous books 'querkles' which i also enjoyed. I have done half of them now using different colors for different effects. I find them very therapeutic and marvel at how a lot of of spirals end up looking like an icon.

I'm a huge fan of Thomas Pavitte. I have so many of his books. This book is completely different to Querkles. There are a wide variety of famous people to choose from.I have terrible eyesight, so it took me a couples of goes before I got the hang of it! Having spent a few hours on each one, I was so happy with the finished piece.This is so relaxing to do. All his books help me relax.

Very clever design but incredibly tedious to do. I've tried to work with different colours to create pop-art style images but just can't seem to get it right.As far as I'm concerned they're best with one colour which makes it a little boring.
