Golden fur and crisp dark spots

Use warm gold for the coat and dark spots for contrast. Keep the light facial and chest areas, and the surrounding scene, white.

Digital example: Golden adult cheetah touching noses with a golden cub beside uncolored leaves.

1. Gold — coat
2. Charcoal — spots and tail markings
3. White — muzzle and light chest

Fill the coat with gold, working around the spots and pale areas. Repeat on each cheetah shown.
Fill the existing spots and tail markings charcoal; follow the drawn shapes without adding new spots.
Leave the muzzle and light chest areas white. Keep the surrounding scene as uncolored line art.

Check that separate spots remain readable and the white muzzle stands out; the scene can stay uncolored.
