FRIENDLY ALLOSAURUS #11

🦖 Allosaurus ⭐ Simple (Kids) 🕰️ Triassic 🦖 Carnivore 🦖

This dino stands upright on its two back legs, head raised, mouth open in a wide smile, with big round eyes and a couple of small horns on top of its head. Its neck, back and tail are covered in oval spots of very different sizes, from tiny dots to shapes nearly as large as its thigh, while stripes run along the tail and neck. Two palm trees flank the dinosaur, curly ferns and rounded stones sit at its feet, and a volcano erupts in the background, sending up a thick cloud of smoke. The outline is thick and even, easy for small hands to follow, but the many scattered spots covering the body call for some patience if every one is going to be filled in. The belly, thighs and the volcanic cloud, on the other hand, offer large open areas that color in quickly. This printable coloring page suits both a child who likes broad flat colors and one who enjoys picking out small details, and it takes roughly twenty to thirty minutes to complete. To give this dino some depth, try alternating two shades for the spots rather than repeating a single color throughout, and let the volcanic cloud stand out against the rest of the scene. Print this coloring page on A4 paper of at least 200gsm, heavy enough to hold up under markers without the ink bleeding through.
