Blending Techniques: Use a soft blender or white pencil to gently mix the colors within each cube to create a smoother transition and reduce harsh lines.

Shading Advice: Apply more pressure on one side of each cube to give the appearance of a light source and added dimension.

Adding Depth: Introduce a thin line of a darker shade along the edges of the cubes to enhance the 3D effect.

Texture Variation: Use cross-hatching or stippling techniques within each cube to create a textured effect, adding a retro vibe reminiscent of vintage graphic styles.

Consistent Background: Keep the background color consistent to maintain focus on the colorful cubes while providing a neutral base that complements the vivid hues.

Consistent Pressure: Use consistent pressure when coloring to maintain uniformity, especially with vibrant colors.

Blending: For a seamless blend between colors (e.g., Magenta and Cyan), use colored pencils gently and overlap slightly.

Shading: Add depth by applying more pressure along the cube edges, softening towards the center, to give a three-dimensional effect.

Highlight with White: Use white pencil to blend and soften areas, providing a retro glow when combined with the bright colors.

Texture Variations: Experiment with different stroke techniques (cross-hatching, circular) to add visual interest and texture to the cubes.

Blending Techniques: Use a soft touch when blending the mustard yellow and burnt orange for a gradient effect, creating an aged, cohesive look.

Shading Advice: Add shadows with a darker shade of each color on one side of each cube to create a 3D effect, emphasizing the geometric nature.

Adding Depth: Apply a layer of very light brown or beige over the entire design to give a slightly faded, antique feel typical of retro styles.

Highlighting Edges: Use a small amount of white to lightly highlight cube edges to emphasize dimensionality and create contrast.

Texture Suggestions: For a textured look, use cross-hatching in the darker areas to mimic the rough, tactile surfaces often found in retro décor.

Blending Techniques: Use a blending pencil or a soft tissue to gently blend the edges where two colors meet, creating a smooth transition that mimics the glow of LED lights.

Layering Colors: Start with a lighter pressure when applying color, then gradually build up layers to intensify the vibrancy. This approach will enhance the LED-like effect.

Adding Depth: Introduce a small amount of dark blue or deep purple to the edges of the boxes to give them a 3D effect, enhancing the retro-futuristic appearance.

Texture Variation: For a slightly different texture, consider using colored pencils for the background and gel pens for the boxes. The gel pens will make the colors pop, resembling the glow of actual lights.

Highlighting: Leave small areas white or use a white gel pen to add highlights and create a reflective look, similar to light bouncing off a shiny surface.

Blending and Transitions: Graduated shading between the Electric Purple and Neon Blue can create a holographic effect, enhancing the futuristic vibe.

Highlight Edges: Use a white or very light pencil to add highlights on the cube edges. This will enhance the three-dimensional effect and mimic the glow of neon lights.

Depth with Shadows: Use darker shades of purple and blue along the bottom areas of each cube to create depth. Consider how light would naturally fall on the cubes.

Accent with Glitter: To simulate the sparkle of neon lights, consider using glitter gel pens or metallic markers on some edges or highlights.

Uniform Background: Ensure the Deep Black background is evenly applied to give the neon colors maximum contrast, emphasizing their brightness and vividness.

Gradient Techniques: For a dynamic effect, create gradients within each cube. Blend the neon pink, electric blue, and bright yellow with a white pencil starting from the center to the edges, for a glowing effect.

Shading: Use a darker shade of each main color along the edges of the cubes to add depth and dimension. This will enhance the 3D feel and make the cubes appear more luminous.

Texture: Apply a light, cross-hatching technique with colored pencils on the cube surfaces. This can mimic the reflective, shiny texture often seen in retro-futuristic designs.

Contrast Enhancement: To amplify the vibrancy, ensure the cube outlines remain dark. Touch up with a fine black pen if necessary after coloring to redefine edges.

White Highlights: Add small white highlights or dots in corners using a gel pen to simulate the sparkle and shine of neon lights.

Layering: Use light, consistent strokes to layer colors. Begin with lighter shades, gradually adding layers for deeper hues, especially for shadows and highlights.

Blending: To achieve a smooth transition between the shadowed sides and the main cube colors, use a blending tool or gently blend with your fingertips.

Shading: Enhance the 3D effect by shading edges and sides with slightly darker variants of the main colors. For example, use a darker mustard or burnt orange on edges farther from the light source.

Texture: Add texture by varying pressure. Light pressure creates a soft wash of color, while heavier pressure deepens the saturation for more emphasis.

Contrast: Maintain clean lines between each cube to ensure they stand out. Consider outlining in a slightly darker shade of the main color to increase definition.
