Coloring Tips
- Start with a light base: Apply light colors to the dinosaur and stuffed toys first for easier layering and depth control.
- Play with light and shadow: Use gradients on the rug to show folds and lighting—darker near the dinosaur and lighter farther away for a 3D effect.
- Emphasize the protagonist: Make the dinosaur brighter (e.g., vivid green or blue) to highlight it as the main character.
- Detail work: Use a dark pen to lightly dot the stuffed toys' eyes and noses for a cute, lively look.
- Simplify the background: Keep the rug a solid color or with simple patterns to avoid distracting from the main subjects.
