Digital coloring example

Humpback whale with a cream underside, pale blue flippers and lavender edges and tail.
A digital color suggestion, not a photograph of a printed result. Open the original line drawing to print and try your own colors.
  • 1. Cream underside
  • 2. Pale blue flippers
  • 3. Lavender body edges and tail
  1. Lightly fill the grooved underside cream, preserving every dark groove.
  2. Color both long flippers pale blue from their bases to the tips.
  3. Use lavender on the head rim, side edges, small back fin and tail; leave water, bubbles and stones white.

Both long flippers should read separately from the grooved belly. The softly joined colors are a suggestion, not a species color chart.
