Digital example: Green crocodile with dark back scales swimming in pale blue ripples.

1. Sage green — skin
2. Dark green — back scales
3. Pale blue — ripples

Color the head, body and tail sage green; keep teeth and eye whites clear.
Darken the raised scales along the back and tail.
Add pale blue around the ripple lines, leaving the distant page white.

The dark back stands out from the lighter body, and the ripples remain visible.
