Coloring Tips
- Start with large areas: Begin coloring the dinosaur's body with light green as the base, then add stripe details on its back using dark green.
- Enhance dynamism: Use orange or red for the puppy's tongue to make it look more cheerful; the bone can be colored light gray with white highlights.
- Background treatment: Lightly sketch clouds with light blue, and use short brown strokes to depict dust kicked up from running.
- Highlight the eyes: Add white highlights to the dinosaur's and puppy's eyes to make their expressions more lively.
- Keep edges clean: Outline with a dark color first to prevent coloring outside the lines, and reinforce the edges once finished.
