Blue whale shark with white spots, white gill-side area and lower jaw surrounded by golden fish above an uncolored reef. — A digital example of this practice; uncolored areas are intentional.

1. Light blue — whale shark's back, fins and tail
2. Golden yellow — all small fish

Color the upper body, fins and tail light blue. Leave every outlined spot, the side area around the gill slits and the lower jaw white.
Color all the small fish golden yellow, including their fins and tails. Preserve the stripe details.

Follow the white spots from head to tail and check the white gill-side area and lower jaw. All reef structures, bubbles and water stay white.
