Tips for Dino-Mite Coloring

Want to make your dinosaur drawings stand out? Try these ideas:

• Blend greens and browns for realistic skin tones (whether printed or digital), just like you’d see in the movies.
• Add a sunset backdrop behind your Triceratops or Brachiosaurus to create a dramatic scene.
• Leave white highlights on claws, teeth, or scales for a shiny, 3D look.
• Use texture tricks always. Dab with a sponge or crumpled tissue dipped in watercolor to create scaly skin effects.
