Digital example: Blue whale descending through pale yellow rays above gray rocks and green seaweed.

1. Blue — back and fins
2. White — belly and markings
3. Warm gray — rocks
4. Sage green — seaweed
5. Yellow — rays and fish
6. Sand beige — seabed

Color the back, tail and fins blue without covering the outline.
Keep the grooved belly and back spots white; leave water and bubbles white.
Color all rocks warm gray, preserving their cracks.
Follow the long seaweed blades with sage green.
Shade the rays pale yellow, fading downward, and color the fish yellow.
Color the sandy gaps pale beige.

The pale rays remain lighter than the blue whale.
