Coloring Tips

  • Start with large areas**: Color the dinosaur's body and chef's hat first with light tones, then gradually add darker shadows for better control.
  • Highlight details**: Use fine pens to carefully depict stove flames and food—start with yellow, then layer orange or red for depth.
  • Expression matters**: Bright colors (like pink or red) on the cheeks enhance the dinosaur's happy expression.
  • Simplify the background**: Use light gray or beige for the stove and background to avoid clutter and focus on the dinosaur and food.
  • Try gradients**: Blend from light to dark on the skin or hat for a 3D effect.
