Coloring Tips
- Start with large areas: first color the little dinosaur's body and tail, then handle details like the clock and expression to avoid smudging.
- Use gradients: apply a green gradient from dark to light on the dinosaur's back for depth.
- Highlight expressive details: outline the dinosaur's focused eyes and slightly open mouth with a dark pen for a lively look.
- Show tail movement: leave highlights at the tip of the raised tail to emphasize its curve.
- Accent the clock: use bright red or yellow for the clock hands to contrast with the green dinosaur and draw attention.
