Golden lion with a brown mane and tail tuft beneath a pale yellow sun; the surrounding landscape stays white. — A digital color suggestion, not a photograph of a printed result. Open the original line drawing to print and try your own colors.

1. Golden lion
2. Brown mane and tail tuft
3. Yellow sun

Color the face, outer ears, body, legs, paws and tail stem golden tan. Leave the muzzle, nose, chin tuft, inner ears and eye highlights white.
Color all flowing mane strands and the tail tuft brown, keeping their dividing lines visible.
Fill the visible sun disk pale yellow. Leave clouds, hills, plants, rocks and the rest of the sky white.

The white muzzle should stay distinct from the golden face and brown mane. You can stop with the landscape uncolored.
