ALBERTOSAURUS COLORING PAGE #3

🦖 Albertosaurus 🦖 Realistic 🕰️ late_cretaceous 🦖 Carnivore 🦖

The dino stands upright on its two hind legs, mouth open in a wide smile that shows off small pointed teeth, its big round eyes looking straight out. Large oval spots run down its body from neck to tail, and that tail curls up high behind it. Small clawed arms are lifted in front, one foot resting beside a puddle on the ground. Ferns and long palm fronds fan out on both sides, two spiral shell fossils sit among the rocks in the foreground, and behind everything a volcano puffs out a cloud of smoke under a round sun and drifting clouds. The linework in this printable coloring page stays thick and rounded, the classic cartoon-dino look, so the big body and volcano shapes fill in easily even for a beginner. The spots along the back need a little more care to stay inside their lines, and the ferns, with their many thin fronds, take patience if you want to vary the shades. Expect around twenty minutes for a child working steadily, longer if every spiral fossil gets its own detail. To make this dino pop, try a bolder shade on the oval spots than on the rest of the body so they stand out clearly. The ferns take well to several greens, from pale to deep, to suggest thick vegetation. Print this coloring page on A4 paper at 90-120gsm so markers or pencils won't bleed through.
