Coloring Tips
- Start with light base colors: Use light green for the dinosaur and light brown for the hedgehog to ease shadowing later.
- Highlight interaction: Color berries red and outline the dinosaur's claws and hedgehog's upturned mouth with dark shades.
- Gradient technique: Blend dark-to-light green on the dinosaur's back for depth.
- Sketch hedgehog spines with pencil first, then color along the lines.
- Smile details: Lightly blush the dinosaur's cheeks with pink and carefully outline smiling mouths with black.
Fun Facts
- Did you know? Dinosaurs and hedgehogs lived in completely different eras! Dinosaurs lived 65 million years ago, while the earliest hedgehogs appeared 15 million years ago - they never met!
- Berries are favorite foods for many small animals! When animals like hedgehogs eat berries, they help spread seeds to grow more berry plants.
- Scientists believe some dinosaurs might have been warm-blooded, able to regulate temperature like humans, possibly making them smarter and friendlier!
- Hedgehogs have 5,000-7,000 spines, but these aren't sharp needles - they're hardened hairs, like our fingernails!
- Though vastly different in size, both dinosaurs and hedgehogs are vertebrates with internal skeletons - just like us humans!
