Coloring Tips
- Start by applying base colors to the dinosaur and hot air balloon, using bright colors to make the scene lively.
- Use a dark pen to lightly outline the dinosaur's scales and the balloon basket's texture for depth.
- Leave the dinosaur's facial expression blank until the end to ensure clarity.
- Apply a gradient to the hot air balloon, transitioning from dark at the top to light at the bottom.
- Color the small claws in a contrasting shade, like blue for an orange dinosaur, to make them stand out cutely.
