Come explore the wonderful underwater world with this cute little dinosaur! This coloring card depicts a baby dinosaur wearing diving goggles, piloting a miniature submarine through the ocean.
Coloring Tips
- Start with the diving goggles: Use light blue for the lens to mimic water reflections, and outline the edges with dark blue for dimension.
- Try gradient coloring for the small dinosaur’s body: dark green on the back transitioning to light yellow on the belly, mimicking real animal coloring.
- For the submarine’s metal parts, start with gray, then lightly brush silver or white on the edges for a metallic shine.
- Add light blue bubbles in the background, leaving white highlights and varying sizes for depth.
- Carefully color the dinosaur’s eyes: white base first, then small black pupils, and finally white highlights for a lively look.
