MICRORAPTOR COLORING PAGE #4

This printable coloring page shows a young, big-eyed dinosaur standing on a rock, front legs raised to stretch out two wide, bat-like wings, grinning as if showing off. Its striped tail curls behind it while ferns, low plants, and rounded pebbles surround the rock. Two full palm trees frame the scene on either side, and in the background a volcano sends up a thin trail of smoke beneath a pair of round clouds. Regular scales cover the dino's back and tail, and small rounded stones dot the ground below. The line work shifts a lot across the page: the palm fronds are the fussiest part, with dozens of thin leaflets to fill in one by one, while the rock and the dinosaur's belly offer large, smooth shapes that color in fast. The repeating scales along the back and tail are small and steady, good practice for staying inside the lines without rushing. This coloring page suits a child with some coloring experience already, rather than a first-timer, and takes a good half hour if the foliage gets proper attention. Since the palm leaves and ferns take the most focus, color them first while your hand is steady, and save the dinosaur for last. The volcano's smoke works well as a soft gradient, darker near the crater and lighter as it drifts toward the clouds. For clean results with markers or pencils, print this dino coloring page on A4 paper of at least 200gsm.
