  • Try a gradient technique for the little dinosaur's body, transitioning from darker shades on the back to lighter shades on the belly.
  • Use yellow or orange to highlight the dinosaur's eyes and smile, emphasizing its playful expression.
  • Add small stripes or spots to the visible part of the tail for extra fun.
  • Finally, lightly shade the base of the bushes with brown to create a hiding effect.
