FRIENDLY ALLOSAURUS #36

🦖 Allosaurus 🎨 Cartoon 🕰️ Triassic 🦖 Carnivore 🦖

This dino stands upright on its hind legs, mouth wide open in a grin that shows several teeth, one round eye clearly drawn, and its small arms tucked in with the claws spread. Circles of different sizes run down its back and along the long tail curling behind it to the ground. Around the dinosaur, palm trees rise on both sides, a volcano puffs smoke in the middle distance, and ferns with fine fronds sit in the lower corners next to a scatter of small pebbles. The outline of the Allosaurus stays thick and easy to follow, which suits younger children for the big flat areas like the belly and legs. The circles on the back and the fern fronds are smaller and more numerous, asking for a steadier hand: allow a good half hour for this coloring page if each circle gets its own shade. Since the circles change size from neck to tail, try alternating two close tones instead of one flat color to give the dino's skin some texture. For printing, a standard A4 sheet on 200 gsm paper holds up well to markers without bleeding through, and this printable is worth keeping on hand for a rainy afternoon.
