I have been a Star Trek fan since I was very young. The Original Series is the one that I first watched and one that I go watch many times over the years. This coloring book really takes me back into the series. The character illustrations (of scenes/episodes) are easily recognizable and are well done.There are 45 designs in the coloring book and are done by a team of illustrators which is something that I have noticed is common in the new Dark Horse coloring books. In this case, the team is made up of Ivan Fernandez Silva, Juan Frigeri, Alejandro Giraldo, Gabriel Guzman, and Federica Manfredi. While there are subtle differences in style, I think that the illustrations work well together.The designs are detailed and a few have intricate and small spots to color. The designs are printed on one side of the page with the episode/quote on the opposite facing page. I wish there were a few more scenes in space and that the designs stopped short of the binding. However, on the whole, I am really enjoying coloring these designs.This is what I found while coloring in this coloring book and testing the paper with my coloring mediums.45 Designs based on episodes and scenes from Star Trek, the original series.Designs printed on one side of page with quotes and Stardates printed on the back of the pagePaper is white, heavy weight, somewhat smooth, and non-perforatedHybrid glue and sewn binding (lots of small stitches). These are near impossible to snip to remove pages. I suggest cutting pages out instead if you so choose.Designs merge into the binding area. Cutting out pages will result in some loss of design.I was able to get the book to open fairly flat with some effort by breaking/creasing the spine.Alcohol-based markers bleed through the paper.Water-based markers, India ink pens and gel pens do not bleed through but do leave shadows on the back of the page.Colored pencils worked well with the paper. I could layer well for deeper pigment and blending easily using a blender stick. Hard lead pencils did not leave dents through the page.I suggest the use of a blotter page with alcohol-based medium. I like card stock but a couple of pages of heavy weight paper will work as well.
