Sea turtle with a golden shell, green head and flippers, green seagrass and white bubbles. — 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 shell
2. Green turtle and grass
3. White bubbles

Fill all shell panels and the entire narrow shell rim golden yellow; keep their dividing lines clear.
Color the head, neck, all four flippers and both seagrass clumps green. Color within and between the small scales, preserving their outlines.
Leave every bubble, eye highlight and the surrounding water white.

The shell panels and tiny flipper scales should still be readable even when neighboring areas share one color. These colors are a suggestion.
