Coloring Tips

1. Start with the big areas: Paint the dragon’s body and the large areas of the clouds first, then work on the details such as the dragon’s scales and whiskers, so that you can better control the overall color matching.
2. Gradual effect: Use different shades of the same color to paint the dragon’s scales, and gradually change from dark to light to enhance the dragon’s three-dimensional and dynamic sense.
3. White space technique: Leave some white space on the dragon’s belly and the edge of the clouds, or lightly apply with light colors, which can highlight the light and shadow effects and make the picture more vivid.
4. Detail processing: Use a fine brush or a colored liner to outline the outline of the dragon’s whiskers and claws, which will make these details clearer and more prominent.
5. Color matching: Traditional Chinese dragons often use bright colors such as red, gold, and green. You can choose these colors as the main color, and use light blue or gray for the clouds to create a contrast.
