Coloring books are usually pretty black and white when it comes to how you should go about doing them, but these corrupted coloring books play much faster and looser with the rules. These coloring books raise the maturity level with their racy and somewhat disturbing content.
When you take an ant picture that's devoid of color, fill it in and add a magnifying glass complete with the sun shining down you get something much creepier than the usual. The Coloring Book Corruptions website adds mature content to these typical children's books.
The site uses much of the artist's own works, but others are encouraged to submit their own content as well. If you have a coloring book and a strange state of mind, Coloring Book Corruptions could be the site to check out.
