Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Colorma at 4.9 against Overpaint's 3.8. Colorma also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks) and review sentiment (77% vs 63%). Overpaint's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Overpaint sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Colorma sells 17 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Colorma holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Colorma has 1.2K ratings behind it against 133, so its average is the more settled of the two.
