Coloring Tips

1. Scale coloring technique: First use light gold as the base, then use dark gold to gently overlay the lower half of each scale to create a three-dimensional effect.
2. Dragon body processing: Use gradient coloring from the dragon head to the dragon tail, use the brightest gold for the head, and gradually transition to the darker tone of the tail.
3. Cloud coloring: After using light blue as the base, gently blend white at the edges to create a fluffy cloud effect.
4. Detail processing: Use red as the base for the dragon’s eyes, leaving the center blank as a highlight to make the dragon’s eyes look bright.
5. Dragon whisker coloring: Use a fine brush to apply light color first, and then use a dark color to lightly sweep the roots of the whiskers after it dries to increase the sense of layering.
